Can AMD RX 7000 series graphics card launch beat Nvidia RTX 4090?

[Gearbest]Many people are searching on the Internet. When buying a graphics card, should I buy AMD? Or is it from NVIDIA? The latest generation of graphics cards released by AMD today will inevitably have to compete with Nvidia’s latestRTX 40 series graphics cards for comparison.

In the early morning of November 4, AMD officially released the RDNA 3 architectureofRX 7000 series graphics card, before playingstandThere are two models: RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX. AMD officially said that compared with these two new graphics cardsSimilar products from friendsthe advantage is that it can achieve higher display performance with lower power consumption.

AMD's two new graphics cards will be officially released on December 13 this year. This is not important, what is important is the price. The overseas prices of RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT are US$999 and US$899 respectively.

I originally thought that the domestic price would be much more expensive, but surprisingly, the price of the two new graphics cards has not increased. The RX 7900 XTX is 7999 yuan, and the RX 7900 XT is 7399 yuan, which is much cheaper than the Nvidia RTX 4090 series and RTX 4080 series. The national price of AMD’s previous generation flagship RX 6900XT is 7999 yuan. In other words, Su Ma is increasing the quantity but not the price this time.

So, what exactly was added?

What improvements are there in the new generation?

AMD RX6900 XT uses the RDNA 2 architecture, while the RX 7000 series graphics cards use the more advanced RDNA 3 architecture.

The RDNA 3 architecture of the RX 7000 series uses AMD's small chip stack design and is built on TSMC's 5-nanometer process, which can accommodate up to 58 billion sets of transistors. Its memory uses a 6-nanometer process and is equipped with up to 24GB GDDR6 video memory.

Comparison of computing power: RDNA 3 architecture can release 61TFLOPS of performance, while RDNA 2 architecture can only achieve a maximum performance of 23TFLOPS. At the same time, the performance per watt of a graphics card using RDNA 3 architecture is 54% higher than that of RDNA 2 architecture, andbroughtUp to 2.7x AI performance improvement. In terms of media engines, the RX7000 series graphics cards have also been significantly improved, supporting 4K image output with a refresh rate of up to 480Hz and 8K image output with a refresh rate of 165Hz, greatly improving video quality.

Facts have proved that the improvement based on the architecture is indeed very obvious, which can be seen from the performance of the RX 7000 series after running games.

How does it perform when running the game?

AMD did actual testing and found that when running “Apex Legends” on the RX 7900 XTX graphics card, fps can reach 295 after turning on 4K display, and the game screen is extremely smooth. And when running“Valorant”At this time, the fps is as high as 704, thanks to the DisplayPort 2.1 output.

However, this should not be the limit of the RX 7900 XTX. If it is paired with Samsung's upcoming 8K ultra-widescreen display Odyssey Neo G9, it can output an ultra-wide ratio display of up to 8K for gaming.Effectwill be better. At present, manufacturers such as ASUS, Acer, Dell, and LG will launch such gaming screens that support 8K display next year. In addition, Htper-RX display technology will also be unveiled, which allows players to switch refresh rate and low-latency display modes with a single button.

AMD said that the RX 7000 series graphics cards support 95fps frame rate and haveFSRThe display technology can perfectly run the masterpiece “Assassin's Creed: Viking Age”.

It is worth noting that AMD also announced a cooperation with Ubisoft to assist it in optimizing the engine performance of Snowdrop. Judging from this press conference, the optimized Snowdrop engine can enable global ray tracing, ray tracing shadows and other effects, while maintaining more than 80% resolution at 4K resolution.frame rate。

AMD's graphics cards have always been difficult to match Nvidia's in adapting to games. By cooperating with some major game manufacturers, AMD may be able to improve this situation through the latest RX 7000 series.

Can it beat NVIDIA RTX 4090?

Judging from the current status and performance of AMD graphics cards, the biggest opponent is definitely not itself, but Nvidia next door. AMD's updated RX 7000 series graphics cards should not compete with Nvidia's RTX 4090 series. However, as they are both the latest products below, comparisons are inevitable.

NVIDIA RTX 4090

In terms of computing power, the RX 7900 XTX is definitely not as good as the RTX 4090. But what is surprising is that the RX 7900 XTX can actually overtake the RTX 4090 when running some games. According to tests conducted on the TPU website, in the “Cyberpunk 2077” 4K and “Metro: Exodus” 4K+ light tracing tests, the RX 7900 XTX actually “killed” the RTX 4090.

It can be seen that even if the performance is not as good as the RTX 4090, the RX 7900 XTX is still very impressive in actual performance. Of course, this is just the performance of the two graphics cards in individual games. However, this also shows that the gap between RX 7900 XTX and RTX 4090 is not as big as imagined, and it can still be tough.

write at the end

Overall, AMD's RX 7900 series graphics cards have been greatly improved this time, and it's not like squeezing out toothpaste. Besides, these two new graphics cards are indeed more attractive in terms of price compared to Nvidia's RTX 4090/4080 graphics cards. With the price advantage in hand, the actual performance of the RX 7900 series does not widen the gap with the RTX 4090. Combining these two points,It is estimated that many computer manufacturers will take a fancy to these two new graphics cards.
