ASUS’s Record-Breaking GeForce RTX 4090 ROG MATRIX GPU Launches On 19th September
Analyzing Starfield’s Performance on Nvidia’s 4090 and AMD’s 7900 XTX
Very in-depth article but as you read through it, it really shows that Starfield was tuned for Radeon GPUs as it takes advantages over the larger register files instead of the smaller ones found in Nvidia GPUs. A 4090 over comes this by sheer amount of SMs but it is big reason why we see 7900XTX be so close to 4090. The article says both are working as intended and there isn't in "gimping" for Nvidia which is technically true. But there is a difference between being optimized to leverage certain architectural advantages that are out of the norm for games with one GPU vendor while not doing the same for the other.
