Doesn't look good. IMO it will offer roughly the same performance as 3080/6800XT at the same price.I fear to find out what kind of performance we will get in the £650-£750 range this generation

You seem to really be pushing future driver updates will bring major improvements, not sure I'll be buying just on that maybe
More crap from this guy. I doubt crunch will solve the issue. If AMD knew performance wasn't where it should be they would have delayed the launch. Whatever is wrong will likely take months to fix if ever. I think the rumor of a retape seems accurate which is when they will get the chiplet design functional.MLID has a video up and in it he's had contact from a amd employee, " amd are working on drivers over the hoilday peroid" initial reports did not meet what the cards should be doing, drivers may be responisble for the all over the place performance. he also states amd have burned a lot of good will with this launch.

Just the norm for AMD driver updates as can be seen by how 6800/6900 performs today.
It is no guarantee of course but speaking from experience there is a reason why there is the saying "AMD's are like a fine wine" and as this is a brand new architecture I would certainly hope to see further performance boost in coming months.
Hopefully so because the current performance just doesn't mesh with the specs or AMD's (usually) somewhat realistic official performance stats.Just the norm for AMD driver updates as can be seen by how 6800/6900 performs today.

I think the references about driver improvements are referring to previous launches where things like fan speeds and fan idling were not functioning properly.
We have seen it on every major launch, Nvidia included.
Of course, the review sits have to report things like high-power draw with the 7900 when playing videos, as it is accurate. But, its not going to be a hardware problem.
The reference 7900XTX is 56% faster in Warhammer 3 at 4k against a Nitro+ 6950XT @ICDP
The only thing going for MLID is his jaw line. He will do well in the adult industry and doesn’t need to keep on making up stuff to get clicks either. Just need to stick his chin between some legsMore crap from this guy. I doubt crunch will solve the issue. If AMD knew performance wasn't where it should be they would have delayed the launch.

MLID has zero credibility with this launch. He is backpedalling now stating his AMD contacts were not accurate. If they were reliable contacts they would have known the performance months ago.
AMD created the hype. Their slides showed up to 1.5x performance gains over the 6950XT. Then they were specifically asked whether that "upto" meant maximum fps by Digital Foundry to which they said it was meant to account for CPU bottlenecks.
That led to people extrapolating benchmarks which showed it competing with 4090. AMD have no one to blame but themselves. Had they claimed 1.35x the performance for $800 the card would have been much bigger received.
