- Thread starter lloydcars18
- Start date
yeah, all the 6000 series cards sold out so quickly when I wanted one.
currently running
corsair vengeance RGB pro 128GB 3200mhz
ek waterblock all in one 360mm
rog crosshair 8 hero x570
ryzen 9 5950x
1x 6TB dump drive (mechanical)
many ssd/m.2/mvme drives. not overly big but it enough
gtx 1070 seahawk.
1000-watt power supply corsair, I can't remember which one it's out of my old rig so prob from 2016
all in my old corsair carbide air 740 high airflow cube case just because it was so easy to build in
tbh I'll be glad to finish off my build probably won't touch it again for a good few years
unless some fantastic piece of tech comes out
Still not a proper source, I wait for the Hardware Unboxed review

interesting that CPU usage seems to be higher across the board on the AMD card. still, looks like a great performer

I may consider a 7900xt to replace my 3080. Then move the 3080 to replace my 3070 in my second box. Just need to see reviews.

Oh well.

Whilst I agree you have to take all of these TY leaks with huge pinchs of salt these leaks have been very accurate for the past couple of generation.
Here is a 4K RT set of games showcased. Seems the 4090 is at least 25% faster in all scenarios which means the 7900xtx actually has very decent RT performance... if true, will find out for sure when reputable reviewers release their results.
pretty sure RT was turned off in the settingsRX 7900 XTX vs RTX 4090 - Test With Ray Tracing | R9 7950X

The RT performance in cyberpunk is virtually the same as a 4080. That is a huge win for AMD if true.

It should be remembered that RT performance does still rely on the raster performance. So 7900 XTX could basically be utilising the extra raster performance to make up some or all of the defecit.
All most people care about is that a card priced lower than a 4080 is matching it in RT performance and beating it in raster. Who cares how it does it?

Yes, just trying to head off any expectations that the 4080 is going to be some RT monster that beats the 7900 XTX by 30% on average.

When do these go live to order guys?
Tomorrow at 2pm for orders. Today is the reviews.
I do miss the fact we used to get a day or two to digest reviews before the cards were available to purchase. Releasing a GPU at the same time as reviews means making an informed decision is the same as not getting one.
I know a guy who ordered 3x 4090s from three different retailers because he was convinced they would all sell out. His plan was to refund/cancel the inevitable sold out ones, or even scalp the other two. In the end he had to scramble to cancel two of them because there was plenty of stock.
