[WonkyEyezJohnny]

Does anyone know if AMD will bring the 7800xt out because im stuck what to do i was going to buy 7900 xt but dunno if £750 a good deal
so was going to buy 4070 but only 12gb vRam putting me off

No ETA, but may hear something at Computex at the end of the month.

why is 12gb of ram putting you off?

 

[humbug]

5 months since RDNA3 launch......

£800+ for a midrange GPU.

4070's are not £800+ also that didn't answer the question.

You mean the 7700xt?

Because a lot of games are using over that atm

Hogwarts RE4 and more plus games are going to want more and more so thinking of furture proofing

 

[RavenXXX2]

RE4 running fine at 4k on a 4070 here, Hogwarts runs fine with DLSS, running it native is sub 60 FPS anyway. How about pick a GPU and play some games, you are worrying over nothing.

As for AMD, it might have 16GB but then you will have lesser RT performance and inferior FSR and no frame gen. These will be essential at this performance class at higher resolutions.

I heard its coming out in March.

Will it not turn into the same story as the 3070 with a lot of games crashing and that in a couple of years?

Mate, It's £550, if I had issues by the time the next Nvidia gen hit, I would sell on and the get the £500-600 5070 that will more than likely have more vram. Don't overspend on a GPU if you can help it, there is always something faster and better equipped around the corner at a lower price.

Easier said than done.

A lot of games? guessing you game at 4k and can't turn settings down.

1440p 165hz

 

[Ross Thomson]

1440p 165hz

and what are you running the now?

 

[subbytna]

7800XT is out already, but AMD "mistakenly" called it the 7900XT (non XTX)

 

[WonkyEyezJohnny]

and what are you running the now?

980ti so big upgrade want to get it right and aiming for 1440p 165hz

if you dont mind the power draw why not go for a 6950XT if your budget is under £600?

The 7800 XT wont be faster than that, as it will be too close to the 7900 XT (unless they just discontinue the 7900 cards).

Its likely the 7800 XT will be around 6900/6950 XT perf for £500-£600 anyway (it will just no doubt have better power efficiency).
