RDNA 3 rumours Q3/4 2022

Not open for further replies.
Based on their own charts, NVIDIA is a generation ahead when it comes to RT. Pricing is subjective. I always buy halo cards so I didn't really think the pricing of the 4090 was all that bad compared to the 3090. The 4080 is terrible though.

I would pay that premium for RT and DLSS because I just don't know what I would do with the higher FPS on the AMD card. Assuming I get 130 FPS with the 7900XTX, I will see no perceptible differences compared to the 70-80 FPS I was getting with the 3080 Ti without an FPS counter.
Will you buy a new card when Nvidia will release a 4090 Ti? Let's say it is 10% better than the 4090 in RT, it should be if it is the full die. You should have no problem buying one since that is the best you can get for RT games. :)
 
Lol at these graphs. Radeon is crushing Nvidia on CoD but in all these graphs that game has the biggest gap in favour of Nvidia. That's what you get when you try to make sense of that FSR FPS mess. :)
I agree but Nvidia do the same with DLSS. Just remember they have said that the 4080 will be 2-4x faster than the 3080Ti. Both are just fluff.

With differing technologies designed to upscale it's becoming harder and harder to extrapolate estimated fps before actual benchmarks.

they didnt use FSR in the charts LTT provided also remember how much cheaper it is , not sure where it leaves the 4080 16gb at £1269

The numbers they were extrapolating for, were all while using FSR.
For example i don't think we will see a tie in CP 2077 or Metro Exodus but Radeon losing in Cod. I believe that CoD game will still be one of the best performers for the 7900 while the others will be slower than what we see in these extrapolations.

DOA for non **please refrain from using fanbois **

People will buy it because it's Nvidia so it will still sell, unless AMD are out of stock all the time then they could get it.

But that recent LTT video they are suggesting it could trade blows with the 4090 in non RT performance.

If that ends up true you would have to be a moron to buy a 4080 at it's current price

At that point we will be midway through the 4000 series life cycle. May as well wait for next generation.

at the start he mentions he set up test benches to run tests you just need to watch it for 40 seconds if you dont wanna watch it all
Pretty sure Linus would have mentioned FSR if it was used also AMD's own charts on them games had no mention of FSR you know the little print :)

If it is true that they can go at <10% of the 4090 in raster with this card, then that is pretty much amazing at that price range. And we should wonder who's the idiot who decided not to put more emphasis on ray tracing i mean intel isn't that far from the first try.
Someone at AMD thought that having RT perf around the 3090 is more than enough. :)

But why don't you change your cards from Ti to Ti cycles? I mean they are the better cards, and certainly there will be more games released with RT or the same games with heavier RT mods, better drivers etc. when Ti is released.
 
Im not planning on moving to 4k anytime soon, and that wont be till more OLED 165hz monitors which aren't curved or 42"+ are readily available. So the 7900xtx will tide my 1440p loving ass for a good while (depending on benchmarks ofc) I hope.

Any other 1440p enjoyers planning on potentially grabbing a 7900 xt/xtx?

Considering it just now for 1440p 144Hz but I will probably look to move to 4k next year at some point.
 
You won't get it.

Add VAT and FX.

899 + 20% is nearer £1100
999 is nearer £1200

So you're looking at those minimum plus scalper tax.
You're wrong mate.
For the XTX $999 dollars = £886
+£200 for AIB cooler = £1086 (AMD don't sell their base cards to UK because of Brexit)
+20% vat = £1303

Can probabaly add another £200 on for "early adopter tax", and maybe a bit more if the pound falls against the dollar. Another £50 for Gibbo's Ferrari fund. So total price likely to be around £1500+ unless OCUK staff can shed any light on pricing

IMO the x90 Ti launches too late into the lifecycle of the generation. It results in buyers regret because you spend all that money only to have it be superseded by the next generation in just a couple of months. Nvidia is no doubt readying a 600W behemoth for the 4090 Ti but it will likely land in the second half of 2023 at which point we will start hearing about next gen GPUs.

I might be wrong didnt AIB's also sell REF 6000 series ? not sure what they sold for on launch though

The biggest unknown is quantity. We can speculate about the cost till the cows come home and we know it will be between £999 and £1200 ish still cheaper than a 4090 and punching at the 4080 16gb but quantity is the unknown.
If we get abundance AMD are going to make a killing. Anything less and it will be seen as another disaster AMD launch.

4090 wasnt in great quantities in the <1000 quantity of each SKU I cant see it being any more for AMD's offering. I can see 7900XT being the biggest quantity this time round with the XTX being scarce and it will be the one people want.

I didn't do an FX conversion I did straight VAT. Seems to be the norm for other cards like the Intel released recently. (Give or take few quid).

They're a hypothesis, ergo it cannot be wrong because there's no information to prove otherwise - just as yours is a hypothesis.

There is no wrong or right here, just opinions because no one knows any better.
