AMD Navi 23 ‘NVIDIA Killer’ GPU Rumored to Support Hardware Ray Tracing, Coming Next Year

[humbug]

Nvidia showed nothing expect ray tracing, expected.
Ball in AMD Radeon court now
Big Dog Navi is coming

Yeah, the fact that they didn't show rasterisation performance makes me think they have something to hide, IE its not all that.....

Your move AMD, start the leaks.... now and announce an event soon.

Any news on AMD event? My monitor is FreeSync and I would quite like to keep AMD if big navi is priced competitively and performs.

 

[LePhuronn]

And also not 4x the RT performance over Turing as some suggested? Ouch, this is gonna be rough.

No news. Estimates are we will hear something about the end of september

Nothing yes but now that Nvidia have theirs out of the way its time for AMD to say something.

Did anyone else think it was weird there were no benchmarks for any games. Plus no mention of power usage hmmm strange

1.9X and that's all he talked about, so expect Rasterization performance to be much lower than that.

Let’s wait on benchmarks and breakdowns. Maybe they won’t be all that? Could be an exciting time if Navi is remotely competitive?

roll on a nice upgrade to my vega 56!

The prices are interesting for Nvidia, maybe AMD have something that competes after all. Or not.

3070 looks very interesting if AMD can undercut that price for similar performance I would be relatively happy with that

So, hot and hungry because Sammy 8nm is a rubbish node, RT performance is only doubled after 2 years and non-3090 pricing is still about $150-200 higher than what it should be.

Jesus wept AMD, this is practically an open goal; if you balls this up I'm flying over personally to smack you.

Caught the last few seconds of the presentation, 'tis all.

No because they never do and haven't for the last four releases as far as I remember the fact normal performance wont be jumping massively anymore your get a 10-20% increase each time now, the only thing that is a concern is the amount of memeory but i'll see what all the benchmarks say

 

[LePhuronn]

Nvidia Reflex? Didn't AMD do this a year ago?

Upto 4x RT performance uplift 3080 v 2080ti - there is more than just an increase to the RT units involved in the performance uplift as someone mentioned before shader performance is also part of the RT equation and there are enhancements there as well as other improvements to the pipeline.

Cheers. I'm skimming when I should be going home so not all information is sinking in properly

You're expecting to see 4X RT performance? that's not what he said, he said 1.9X.

Goodbye AMD

IIRC it was 1.7x performance for the RT specific hardware - but with the other optimisations in the actual RT pipeline in RT applications the performance up lift was around 4x.

(As someone posted a detailed post on recently there is more than just the RT hardware in the equation as you have to shade a lot of the trace hits as well - which in Turing isn't as effective as it could be due to the hardware being kind of bolted on rather than designed in from the ground up).

Open goals are the easiest to miss based on my experience in Rocket League
