AMD Declines Radeon RX 7900 XTX RMA For Hitting 110C Junction Temps, Says “Temperatures Are Normal”
It's like AMD wants to outdo Nvidia in who's the scummiest company contest
NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti is 5% faster than RTX 3090 Ti in leaked OctaneBench test
The worst thing about Lovelace is that everything is good about it except the most important factor which is the price. We will see what Nvidia prices this GPU in CES.
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X is four times as popular as Ryzen 5 7600X, Ryzen 9 7950X again drops to €599
While the CPU prices are good for Ryzen 7000, the motherboard prices need to come down drastically. Going from PCI-E Gen 4 to PCI-E Gen 4 is not an upgrade imo and those are usually the cheaper mobos.
Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Nitro+... one heck of a card!
They managed to UV+OC the 7900XTX Nitro+ To 500-540 watts. They were able to get the results come close to a 4090 stock in some games like Cyberpunk Raster/Resident Evil while others were still far off like Horizon Zero Dawn. On average though, pushing it to those kinds of wattage netted about a 8% increase in performance. So in games like Cyberpunk/RE, it was able to get close to a 4090 cause it was doing quite well in those games already. But in games like Horizon Zero Dawn where it was doing poorly, it still was far off.
So I think it's safe to assume that if you take the benchmarks and add around 8% on top, you get the OC results which still end up slower than a 4090 stock, sometimes a lot slower while pushing 488 watts+ while the 4090 stays at around 407 watts.. And you can also OC a 4080/4090 and gain around those % increases. They do still conclude to buy a 4080 which is interesting.
