Oh, thats a lot of card for the money!
Oh wait… I mean the other way.
Spending $1.4K+ on an RDNA 3 card right now is pretty gutsy:
FSR 3 support in shipping games tripling from four to 12 games
Sony PlayStation 5 Pro teased with PSSR (Spectral Super Resolution) supportAMD pretends to support the inferior FSR 3 but have been co-developing the custom "PSSR" AI upscaler with Sony that works just like NV DLSS and Intel XeSS
However, RDNA 3's garbage compute design means the PC variant of PSSR may not be ported to the 7000 series as "FSR 4" because the PS5 Pro APU now includes a custom AI core that as a package, is now superior to the 7900 XTX
With RDNA 3 failing on chiplet design, compute support and now even console refresh features, anyone serious about AMD is not buying until RDNA 4 8800 XT is announced
That was a wild ride.
Ty for the info
RDNA4 being worth it is a mighty big assumption. I'm expecting AMD to make a comeback with RDNA5, but RDNA4 is looking more like a refresh/optimized RDNA3.
… but RDNA4 is looking more like a refresh/optimized RDNA3.
"Refreshed" RDNA 3.5/4 is what RDNA 3 should have been in the first place
Since RDNA 3 is a failure, the only way is up with the stopgap RDNA 4:
1/ The OzB AMD shills who towed the line on saying RT/AI/compute was not important have now been proven by AMD themselves to be full of shit
If FSR 3 was good enough, Sony would not have dragged a kicking and screaming AMD to develop an AI upscaler using features that the $1.4K 7900 XTX lacks
2/ RDNA 4 being mid-range only and monolithic = AMD staying in their lane and admitting they still cannot control chiplet speed/power/costs with the current TSMC process
3/ RDNA 3's fundamental weakness on compute is now being exposed badly because no matter how hard AMD try to spin it, mid-range RDNA 4 will have substantially better compute than top-range RDNA 3
RDNA 3 is a beta test that will age and depreciate poorly
4/ RDNA 4 will offer a decent jump in raster (back to monolithic), substantially better RT/compute (because Sony forced AMD) and pricing will be improved (because AMD is now competing against Battlemage, not NV)
I wouldn't call RDNA3 a failure. More like Another Major Disappointment :)
I actually loved RDNA2 cards, but RDNA3 was just meh…
Now one would assume RDNA4 would be a hit, but I have my doubts after hearing AMD will not be doing chiplet GPU design with RDNA4 and maybe not even RDNA5.
The only way AMD will ever make a leapfrog advancement in GPU is if they figure out how to make chiplet design work for the GPU die. NVIDIA apparently has it working for their pro consumer market cards.
PlayStation 5 Pro leak: 8-core Zen2 3.85 GHz CPU and RDNA4 Ray Tracing Engine
Well well well, there we go
Top spec RDNA 3 7900 XTX confirmed as having worse RT/compute than the low/mid spec RDNA 4 PS5 Pro
At this point, Sony should just buy the Radeon group from AMD because it's clear AMD have NFI how to compete in GPU's
I'd consider under $1300, but likely closer to under $1200.
Amd new cards come out near end of the year. I'll be holding until then for this card to drop in price.
I have this exact card and paid $50 more for it, best deal out there bang for buck right now 'I think'. May be in the top 5, but for this level of performance, look at the prices of the RTX 4080/S
I will wait for $1.1k :-)
