Although you should use GDDR7 memoryeverything seems to indicate that AMD will continue with GDDR6 memory. The RX 8800 XT and RX 8800 / RX 8700 XT will have 64 MB Infinite cache for the 48 MB that the RX 8700 / RX 8600 XT model will have.
The implementation of Navi 48 GPUs in combination with the RDNA4 architecture should represent a significant performance jump over the current generation which uses Navi 31 in the RX 7900 Yes Navi 32 in the RX 7800XT and the RX 7700XT.
