Loving some of the comments here. Numbers flying out of every orifice and we don't even have any official benchmarks. The anti AMD brigade crawling out of the wood work trying to find some fault and some people trying to justify a melty, fire risk, coil whining, overly sized, stupidly power hungry, ridiculous priced 4090. Hilarious.

Almost as funny as people saying I need to now buy a dp2.1 monitor. How dare you AMD!! Well dur obviously. When NVIDIA catch up though and announce support I'm sure everyone will be gushing. :cry:
 
Gamers Nexus did a rush video where they read off the AMD slides where it said FSR and 8K Widescreen and then moaned about it being deceptive despite them literally reading it off the screen in the titles and regular sized lettering on the bars not small print.

Gotta make an attempt to make drama for clicks.
Did we watch different streams?

It was clearly misleading imo.
 
6900 XT was 58% of the performance of a 3090 in CP2077 4K+RT Ultra. The 7900 XTX will be 48% of the performance of a 4090. That's before we factor in DLSS which is superior both simple & with frame generation, before we think about the heavier modes already in the game (psycho) and on their way (overdrive), and before we settings tweak which will increase the gap further because Nvidia can scale even better in RT with a little knowledge.

Yes, the 7900 XTX is clearly cheaper but actually it's worse value, because it has half the performance! More importantly if you look at absolute numbers instead of relative, the 7900 XTX will still be firmly <30 fps which is NUTS! And it has way more deficiencies than that but honestly, who cares, this is just a poor showing from AMD overall. No way anyone buying a $1000+ GPU in 2022 is ignoring RT so their raster numbers vs $ won't save them, at best it puts them at parity with 4090 for $/fps but without any of the features.

Honestly even Vega was a better GPU vs Pascal than this is vs its competition.

The niche of the niche that is ray tracing being put on a podium as the performance metric of choice?

RT continues to be a disgusting resource hog that sabotages the performance of any game compared to off and as a result needs obscenely expensive cards just to run mediocre fps.

Gamers Nexus literally showed the slides they were reading 8K Widescreen off from the title.

They also shows the slides they complained were using FSR, recognisable because they were reading the word FSR off the bar.
 
doom eternal is an optimally implemented game, ideal candidate for benchmarking
heres something comparable from nvidia

idk if its correct, as the numbers are all over the place this generation
 
Resident evil 4k rt enabled max settings

7900xtx 138fps
4090 fe 175 fps
3090to 102fps


Seems pretty decent to me. Huge uplift over 6000 series, big improvement over ampere.

Sources are amd website and tech power up 4090 fe review
For single player story games, you don't need massively high frame rates!
 
So it seems the flagship Radeon 7900XTX (with RT) will be comparable to a RTX 3090 ,requires a new monitor with DP 2.1 to shows all it’s potential and most likely there will be lots of bugs and game driver compatibility issues to deal with for the next 2 years..

AMD fanboys are excited but I think it was a disappointing and underwhelming event.

I think even the 4080 will easily beat it.
Hence why AMD couldn’t price it higher than $999

Keep laughing fanboys,you were hoping it will beat 4090 yet undercut it?:D:D

You got to love these random troll accounts that are like 5 minutes old.
 
Wasn't impressed all that much, at least not enough to want to upgrade. Will stick to my 3080 for the time being, maybe will look for a good deal next year.
 
I'm running an older ultrawide with a g-sync module, so stuck with Nvidia. But now I'm considering dumping my screen in the nearest skip and buying a new one to switch to AMD. I'll probably still save money upgrading from my 1080 Ti.
Same position for me. I hate being saddled with this thing, but I just haven't been able to justify an upgrade. I'm done with 1440p and the 4K monitors on the market right now are either incredibly expensive or lacking in some major way. Excellent HDR performance is still a fantasy unless you're spending well over a grand.

The Nvidia fan(boy)s will always find a way to justify their purchase as the "rational" choice, rather than something they bought out of brand loyalty. Whether it's power consumption, rasterisation performance, ray tracing performance, price, drivers, the RGB LED lighting or whatever else. One of those things will be the defining talking point for the generation and everything else is unimportant. It's a pattern dating back more than a decade and it won't change. That's the power of Nvidia's mindshare. Their fans are about on par with Apple fans for brand loyalty.

At least they make us laugh, all part of the fun of these forums :)
 
I think the graph is 1.6x, the claim was 1.5 to 1.7.
Surely the RT graph will look much worse.
Who knows right. FSR frame rates everywhere. Vague RT performances.

Anyway, need to wait for review. They ah e not really given anything away in their presentation in all honesty. Selected the games that runs well in AMD cards for the fps comparison and showcase.

No blaming them for doing the above but not exactly the informative launch the consumer needs.

DP2.1 is a bit of a gimmick.
