Yeah, let's hope there is more potential in the 7900s left to squeeze out.

Cancelled the cheap 6950XT, getting farted around by Jeff on the delivery. Nice of them to send me a code though...
That XTX Pulse is catching my eye, just a damn shame their are slight stuttering issues in Division 2 with RDNA3 atm

The fact this thread exists is evidence that people clearly do buy AMD believing on unpromises driver improvements

It's evidence that people buy AMD cards and also know about the phenomenon of AMD drivers.
Not evidence that AMD drivers get people buying AMD cards.
It’s a Brucey bonus grimbo. My previous AMD cards have had a nice improvement over the years. Vega 64 being the most noticeable.

Well it certainly didn't stop people from buying the RTX cards with Nvidia marketing the hack out of the dream of Raytracing as the next big thing, but RTX 10 and RTX 20 and RTX 30 series Raytracing capability never got the chance to properly materialise and remains a (dead) dream thanks to Nvidia purposely supplying cards with pitiful amount of vram

Randomly came across this article. Pinch of salt until more reputated sources verify:

AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT is up to 67% Faster with the Latest Adrenalin Driver Update | Hardware Times
AMD recently released a new graphics driver that boosts performance by double-digit percentages. This Radeon Software Adrenaline Edition update mostly focuses on “Forza Horizon 5” and “The Last of Us.” The performance uplift conferred, though, is not something you see with an everyday driver...

Looks like 67% is a headline figure and more realistically 10-20% increase due to optimisations of code which rely on CPU performance.

It is more slow and poor adoption by developers than hardware issues really, though nothing below the 3000 series are going to stand up to a proper path tracing implementation at decent resolutions - you need to drop the 1000 series to like 640x480 resolutions to get 20FPS, 2000 series only a bit better.

Looks like bug fixes
Because according to those charts the 7900 series was getting beat by the 6800 in Forza 5, so something was clearly very wrong with the 7900 performance
It's not new free performance but more like big fixes

I suppose it's possible those fixes might give some other games a smaller uplift as a side effect.

I really appropriate people who make update videos on drivers, very few do it.

Yup, that's a big boost!
Big sites focus on new product launches mainly that's why. The small channels need to keep posting videos everyday to stay relevant so they'll pickup and make a video about anything
