AMD choose which games to bundle with their GPU's, past evidence and information clearly shows that the likleyhood of a new "MASSIVE" space game from Bethesda, would be a buggy mess at launch, like most of their games are, needing months and months of mods to fix their **** that they never actually fix themselves. This is a developer KNOWN, for over promising and under delivering.
They could have made deals for countless other far better games, but nope, they picked their "AMD" sponsored game.....
Probably cost them less that's why...
It's always about the money.
In most reviews it beats the 6800xt by a small margin. Gamers Nexus differed from the majority from what i have seen. It's really a 6700xt successor with a stupid name on it so in that price bracket it moved the tier up a good chunk. 6700xt was RRP 480 and this $500. The 6700xt was a Navi 22 chip and this is a Navi 32 chip so that's your apples to apples. Its the usual mid gen matches last gen highend affair for Mid gen pricing. Still can't believe $480 and $500 is mid end pricing these days but that's where we are at.So how are these looking?
I've only had time to checkout the GamersNexus who seemed sort of unimpressed. They suggested the 6800 XT was a better card if you could find it for a similar price, but the 7800 XT does seem better than Nvidia's offering in price performance, so it's not all bad. Overall it doesn't really seamed to have moved things on in any meaningful way though. I guess in 18 months it might be a better purchase once the "fine wine" effect has kicked in with the drivers and maybe the price will have come down?
I've not checked the LTT review but I suspect they'll have it beating a 4090 in a few benchmarks but then that'll be silently changed in a week or two...
So it's the same mediocre **** we've been getting for the rest of this generation (and possibly the one before that too) then?In most reviews it beats the 6800xt by a small margin.

Ah well, I guess we wait for next gen and cross our fingers.

This has always been the case, but people will still be stupid and buy a cooler they like the look of / brand they like.Surely the fact you can buy a 7700XT SKU at the same price as you can buy a 7800XT SKU at launch shows there's an issue with pricing lol.

It doesn't matter about the differences from the "standard" board for the 7700XT, you're picking that 7800XT every time.

As you can see from the reviews here, 3 people, 5 stars 'looks beautiful' 'a fantastic looking card' 'looks amazing' - When they could be running a 4090![]()
Not bad cards at all performance wise, its not another 6500XT put it that way! (wonder if they will make a 7500XT?)
I think I will sit on my 6800 for a while yet unless I can get some crazy deal on a 7900xt. The price tag to performance gains just aren't there for me overall.
Pleased that I bought the 7900XT at £700 with Starfield bundled. That was a better buy!Today's reviews and prices certainly make the OCUK 7900XT at £750 look a good buy.
You mean the RTX 4030, with passive cooling etc etc. Right?..7500xt probably come after Nvidia launches rtx4050
