Yeah, RDNA 3 can't dual issue FMAs in Wave32, so a lot of applications predictably won't see major increases vs RDNA 2 on a per WGP and per clock basis

Yes, VOPD is required for 2x issue in Wave32 in RDNA 3, and there's no VOPD instruction that does 4-input FMA

You have to resort to 3-input FMACs to get the full benefit of RDNA 3's SIMD designhttps://t.co/76PqHJ9E0k

We will see what happens but I get the feeling RDNA 3 needed more time in the oven

I don't remember if it was a rumor or an actual pice of info that you posted about a bug in the Navi 31 chip that would prevent the cards from boosting as high as they were supposed to. But, in any case, I agree that it looks like AMD kind of rushed these cards to be able to meet its 2022 deadline.

A shame.
