Supposedly it is RDNA 5, RDNA 3 RT performance is pretty poor, behind both Intel Arc and Nvidia GPU's in raytracing performance at the same pricing tier, but supposedly RDNA 4 and RDNA 5 will offer pretty big ray tracing improvements, so a mid level RDNA 5 GPU like the one that will go into the next gen Xbox most likely, one that roughly matches the high end RDNA 3 Radeon 7900 in rasterization, should outperform the 7900 XT in RT. So we should have path tracing as as a big leap forward in lighting, much more RAM allowing higher res textures, and AI frame generation on AMD's FSR, which testing shows offers about a 80-90% framerate improvement. |
RDNA5 is the architecture RTG is believed to be developing for the next-generation consoles so I expect it to be one of the 'good ones' like RDNA2. It could be as good as Ampere in ray tracing, so perhaps even a match for the 4070 Ti with RT on.
I wonder what Sony would do, in any case. I doubt they have 2026 in mind right now so this is probably more of a PS2 situation, where it was designed with more advanced tech in mind than the Dreamcast, rather than a PS3 one where it was late only due to manufacturing costs/part availability.
