AMD has launched a new graphics card, the RX 9050. This is an entry-level graphics card with a slim provision of cores and VRAM, more of a match for the 890M than the RX 9060. It's even more entry-level than initial rumours suggested, and while you'd hope for a great price to match, we're not getting our hopes up yet.
Take a look at the specifications below, right from AMD's website, and you'll get an idea of the card. It's using the same Navi 44 GPU as the more capable entry-level and mid-range graphics cards, but it's been trimmed down to within an inch of its life. At 1,024 cores, it is actually a match for the 890M GPU found in Strix Point mobile chips, though it does have the big benefit of a desktop power budget, even if only 92 watts; RDNA 4 architecture, and 32 MB of Infinity Cache.
