Lots of rumors and leaks for Xbox 2 over January. The latest is a supposed very early devkit screen. Showing a possible side Cache off die EDRam of 1GB.
On top of that the most interesting part is not Navi, but the Arcturus GPU. A whole generation ahead of Navis feature set.

The very reliable YouTuber has also given reasons as to why this particular screens hot of the devkit shows 22gb ram. As it could be in a mode for Lockhart as opposed to Anaconda. He is expecting Anaconda devkit to use 48gb ram.
Those unaware devkit often use around double the ram of the actual retail console. So it's feasible it's Lockhart around 11-12 gb GDDR6.
Of course it could be fake. Or even early and subject to change.

"To be clear this is sent to me from someone at microsoft xbox software division
fake or real, i have no clue , he said they're experimenting with some kits sent recently from amd and that there's some Zen2 variants that do away with traditional SMT of 2 threads per core and amd is experimenting with new way to maximize cpu usage with something called HyperScheduler, and currently they optimizing their compiler to better handle that
and about that L4 cache, its eDRAM located outside the Zen2 die, designed to compensate for the high latency of having GDDR6 as the system RAM"
