RDNA 3 rumours Q3/4 2022

To open my wallet I'll be expecting something that's 50% faster than my 3080 for the same outlay + 10% inflation and taking into account the weaker pound so around £820-850
 
what's going to be exciting imho is when/if we see the multi-GCD solutions, I have a feeling that is an RDNA 4 ambition the way in which the leaks have gone over the past year implied we might see it but its now looking like its not ready... I take that to mean its technically possible from a hardware perspective but not ready/working for gamers yet.

I'd like them to go back to using HBM, which is stacked, albeit not on top of the GPU. Even today, the top GPUs have less memory bandwidth than my nearly 4 year old Radeon VII.

The caches that are now in place mitigate that to an extent although you could argue they are also a cost saving but this isn't really being passed onto the consumer.

I skipped Turing since it was pretty poor then bought an msrp 3080 as that was good value but the 4080 doesn't in the slightest look appealing unless it's price gets cut in half, 59% of the 4090 which isn't even the full 102 die is what I'd class as a 70 card so £600-650 would be about right for it given the weak pound + inflation.

I always used to upgrade for the new battlefield game, but since that's been trash I don't feel the need.
 
The cache on these are huge, I look at the diagrams for Navi 31 and 32 and total size of the the cache chiplets look nearly as big as the actual GPU core

Wonder if this is a (another)Nvidia killer or another so so card?

You will get no such proclamations from the older heads here but if you look at the AMD chip specifications, bus width and vram speed's something would really have to go wrong for a AIB 7950XT card to disappoint anyone in raster performance.

The AMD chip design is simply better than Nvidias for this generation, it does not mean the AMD card will be faster or slower than a 4090, it just means that Nvidia, like Intel have done with the 13900k, have had to really push what they have that little bit harder to try and beat AMD.
 
it does make me wonder what AMD are capable of if they can match Nvidia with a node disadvantage. They seem to be coming in with a much smaller less power hungry gpu. If the performance is close to Nvidia it suggest's AMD have held back a shed load of performance. Could we see AMD bringing the monster next year on 4nm and pushing the boat out. Time will tell, keep the train parked lol but recent years have seen some decent cards.

theres divergence in strategy, nvidia is betting big on dlss as the next frontier of growth while amd is still taking the traditional approach.. my guess is that next gen amd will have the rug pulled from beneath them
also i was looking at few youtube videos, it seems nvidia started working on these new technologies (speculative rendering and RT) a decade before amd
