Do AMD provide any benefit to the retail GPU segment.

[humbug]

This is with everything running Ultra, 1440P, this video exists to demonstrate what happens when you use Ultra settings on an 8GB card, the textures go very muddy on the road and are missing entirely from some of the LOD foliage.

RTX 2070 Super.

60, at 1080P high that thing is averaging near 90.

 

[humbug]

I have seen the RX6700XT dip to around £330ish,and that is around twice the performance and twice the VRAM as your GTX1660 Super. An RX6950XT would be another 50% faster than that,so about three times faster.

if i see one i'll buy it.

I don't think you're wrong, brand preference is a strong motivating factor for a lot of people. That said I think AMD is a long way behind Nvidia in terms of value adds. Like Nvidia leads in upscaling, RT and GPGPU/productivity. AMD offers more VRAM but that's about it. Like if you're purely interested in native rasterisation and the best value for that use case then AMD makes sense but many people are wanting more.

If AMD's FSR3 is no worse than DLSS3 would that put an end to Nvidia's perpetual gotcha?

 

[humbug]

Comparisons I've seen seem to suggest DLSS2 often has better IQ than FSR2 so it sounds like there's work to do there as well but happy to be corrected on this.

FSR3, frame generation.

 

[humbug]

Same thing, really, depends on how good it is. DLSS3 is the benchmark so ideally AMD should match or beat it in terms of IQ, latency and performance improvement but we'll see.

I'm asking, assume its all good.

 

[humbug]

And in 2005 we had 1 core for 1k$. Isn't it always the case that as technology progress,, we get more performance at the same price? Excluding of course the last 7 years that amd has been stagnating - sometimes you get less performance for the same money (3700x to 5600x for example ).

I bought a dual core for less than £200 in 2006, it wasn't from Intel.

 

[humbug]

In 2016 we had 8 cores for $900
In 2017 we had 8 cores for $500
In 2019 we had 16 cores for $750
In 2020 we had 16 cores again but a slight price hike to $800,
The competitor could only managed 10 cores
In 2021 they hit back with 8 + 8 half cores for $739
In 2022 Intel released an 8 core + 16 half cores for a very reasonable $589
Also in 2022 we had another 16 core for $699.

Right now you can get a 7950X for £590.
Or a 13900K for £570.

So now we have 16 cores, or 8 + 16 half cores for really not much more than 8 cores in 2017, a lot less than in 2016.

 

[humbug]

Just bought that today.

Nice

@Calin Banc why should AMD sell cheap so you can buy Nvidia GPU's cheap? It doesn't work anyway, its on you mate.

RX7600XT launching on May 24th:

AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT Launches on May 25

AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT reportedly launches on May 25, 2023. Moore's Law is Dead scored the key dates associated with the launch. The upcoming performance-segment graphics card is rumored to be based on the 5 nm "Navi 33" silicon and RDNA3 graphics architecture. Apparently, the tech press should...

www.techpowerup.com

Looks like it will be an RX6700XT 8GB at best.

Are they skipping 7700XT and 7800XT or what?

Come on AMD.... where are they?

 

[humbug]

Money in my pocket..... AMD.

 

[humbug]

I really hope they don't try to overprice this,as the RTX4060 should be similar performance(or slightly faster),and have better RT performance too. This is also not going to be much faster than the sub £300 RX6600XT/RX6650XT dGPUs. It has to be £300 or under.

Right.... they can't, RT tho is meaningless at this level, i doubt the 4060 is going to be much better at that than my 2070 Super.

 

[humbug]

@CAT-THE-FIFTH something i wanted to show you.... Rust, 2013.

120Hz right? Look at the VRam and watch what happens when i get near the scapyard, if i turn the settings down its back up to 120Hz.

120Hz to 30Hz.

AMD says it can stay where it is!!!

It burning a hole, if the 4070 wasn't so expensive for what it is i would have bought one already.

 

[humbug]

Navi 33 is a smaller chip than Navi 23 and is on a density optimised 7NM. The same PCBs from the RX6600 series can be used. So it should be a relatively cheap dGPU to make and more importantly the cards should be almost straight ports of the RX6600 series. If AMD prices the RX7600XT 8GB at over £300,when an RTX4060 starts at £350,then the RX7600XT is going to be a failure.

Yeah, its on the same node and probably a similar size to this.

They can do it for £300 and make a profit...

[humbug]

Its VRam overspill, its spilling in to system RAM, effectivly turning my dGPU in to an iGPU.

 

[humbug]

oh..... to be 24 again.

 

[humbug]

It's smaller by around 33MM2.

For £300 it'll be the new RX 580, probably AMD's most successful card in a lot of years.

 

[humbug]

RX6600 is £199.99 on the OcUK store. Take that RTX3050!

That's a damned good GPU for £200.

25% faster at 1440P than the RTX 3050, currently £240+, what a joke...
