*** The AMD RDNA 4 Rumour Mill ***

I think ppl are clinically insane paying anywhere near 700 squid, looking at benches it's a 7900 xt in a different frock bar the RT roughly, especially at 1440p. RT is good but not great and dam terrible in some games. Not forgetting the previous AMD cards were terrible at RT so there wasn't exactly a high bar

Well if you are few generations back it's a decent buy at MSRP from what's currently available I wouldn't pay over MSRP for one

It's a skip from me, but good to see the improvements in RT hopefully means we MIGHT get better competition with next gen from both

Looking at the charts, the Ray tracing is still badly lacking in AMD. If you want to play a heavy RT game you still have to go Nvidia it seems.

You mean if you want to play heavy RT games you go 5080/5090 ? £££££££££

At MSRP I'd pick AMD all day over the 5070ti

Really, you think $600 for 4070ti super performance is great when last gen AMD nailed 3080 performance at $500 and lost marketshare?

That's a really odd way to word it given its faster than a 4070 Ti Super, its equivalent (unless you want to argue about 4%) to the £800+ 5070 Ti for £230 less, yes i think that's good.
 
I'm sold. :) Looking at my card and the uplift to the 9070XT at 4k, it is great news. Obviously for those on other models it might be different situation but for me, I think that's a great effort by AMD and hopefully they continue to push on and gain some traction. Nice to have some positive reviews where AMD are at least mixing up and disrupting the norm. See AMD - you can do it! And just on the price, if the Nitro+ is £699 then that is OK with me (not great) as I paid £699 for the current card so if I look at it from that perspective I'm gaining in performance for the same outlay. I can convince myself with that haha. But yeah, price looks to be a tad high atm. It might be a ploy? Nvidia drop their prices, and this gives a bit of wiggle room? I don't know. Anyway, I'll be trying to get one tomorrow.
