Sure it comes with trade offs but let the users decide whether or not the trade offs are worth it. From the reviews of the leaked version, it's a pretty big improvement in image quality even when being used with RDNA3 INT8 compared to FSR 3 which is currently the only official choice. And sure Radeon hasn't promised anything to anyone so the logic of "you got what you paid for" certainly applies. But personally speaking, when a company like Nvidia is giving options to 2060 users from 2019 to run the latest DLSS models while Radeon doesn't want to give those that spent $1000 on 7900XTX the time of day even though Radeon had a plenty of marketing around the so called "Ai capabilities" of RDNA 3... Yea it really shows how each company supports their user base and it affects the reputation of each company. Radeon should be working towards a "we are better than Nvidia" reputation in anyway possible given their single digit market share. But if they are going to act like how they have done in the past year, they absolutely deserve that market share imo. |
The difference between the 2060 is that... nVidia included tensor cores, dedicated hardware units for inference tasks, something AMD never did with GCN or RDNA 1/2/3 hardware. Anything you run on GCN/RDNA 1-2-3 takes resources away from something else.

A little correction while it true RDNA 2 did not have anything like Tensor correction, RDNA 3 did add in Matrix cores which is AMD version of Tensor cores. Both 20 series and 30 series for Nvidia tensor cores did not support FP8 yet they still give the option to use DLSS 4.5. There is a trade off about a 30% performance drop since it don't have native FP8 support. There no reason AMD could not given RDNA 3 users the option for that trade off like Nvidia did as the nvida 20/30 series was in the same position RDNA 3 was hardware wise.
