Sapphire today unveiled the Radeon RX 9050 Pulse 8GB, a compact 8GB RDNA4-based entry GPU built around a trimmed RX 9060 XT Pulse board. It uses 16 of Navi 44’s 32 compute units (1024 stream processors), includes the full 32MB Infinity Cache, and features a 128-bit GDDR6 memory bus with 8GB at 18 Gbps. The cooler is a dense aluminum fin-stack with two 6mm copper heat pipes and two 70mm fans, powered by a single 8-pin PCIe connector for about 100W TGP. Display outputs are two HDMI 2.1b and one DisplayPort 2.1a. The card measures roughly 20 cm in length and 12.2 cm in height, occupying two slots. AMD did not disclose pricing for the RX 9050 Pulse 8GB.
