AMD RDNA3 Navi 31 GPU with six MCDs to feature 384-bit wide memory bus

This one comes straight from AMD's Linux drivers so it's probably legit. I am glad to see RDNA 3 having a much higher memory bus as that should help with higher resolutions as RDNA 2 struggled against Ampere at higher resolutions. That along with 192mb/384mb of Infinity Cache should make it a force to be reckoned with. Of course, one disadvantage with both high end Lovelace/RDNA 3 will have is that they both will be great for mining while high end RDNA 2 was meh for mining.
VALVE wants to optimize Steam OS for AMD Ryzen 7 6800U powered consoles, GPD confirms
It would be great if this were to happen as similar to the Steam Deck, the 6800U's CPU/GPU are fixed. So in theory if Valve does optimize for them, the 6800U handhelds could down pre-compiled shaders for games like Elden Ring to alleviate the stuttering issues.

Certainly a video worth watching as there's a lot of interesting tests done. The A380 basically requires Re-sizable Bar to be enabled at all times as it can give a massive 30%+ performance uplift in most games vs it being disabled. There's also massive stutters when ReBar is disabled. Not even RDNA 2 sees that big of an uplift with SAM enabled with so many games. With that being said though, in most titles, it is still slower than a 6400. In some titles, it can compete against 6500XT but it's rare. The biggest kicker is Direct X11 titles such as GTAV as that is where Nvidia GPUs continues to punch above their weight where the A380 loses to a 1050 Ti. But also note that RDNA 2 also starts falling behind against Nvidia as a 1050 Ti is now on par with a 6400 which shows that even with RDNA2's so called DX11 driver fix, Nvidia's driver optimization for DX11 titles continues to be insane.
A380 is also more power hungry than 6400 at 82 watts vs 52 watts.
