I really wish they'd just find someone with a little bit of energy and give them a hit off a crack or meth pipe before shoving them up on stage. Maybe it would be a train wreck, but damn if it wouldn't be captivating.
 
Welp, hopefully they are cheap.

Also, forget everything I said about AMD making the same mistake as "sweet spot" for not building a larger GCD and taking the crown. The huge architectural advantage that AMD had (and largely squandered) with RV770 is not the case here. A larger GCD might have matched raster but still would have lost terribly in RT.

Ummm that doesn't look very good... Especially RT.

If you want RT buy a 4090.
If you don't get a 7900.
Pretty sure that's the right path

It's not like the 7900 won't be able to run RT at all 😀

And engines are going to keep optimizing for Radeon RT.

I am not disagreeing in general though, just if you think RT performance is the most important purchase factor for the next 18 months, then the 4090 is the choice to make.

But that's not good for the market and not good for AMD either to "ignore" RT. Which they do according to their own benchmarks.

This is def not as bad as the Vega disaster, but it's not good either. Still disappointing tbh.

WHAT THE ****?

Sigh. I'm beginning to dislike the new AMD (not that I'm fond of Nvidia as a business either). If they had been able to deliver a much larger increase in RT, then maybe. And while DP 2.1 is nice, Nvidia just offers more stuff (CUDA, Tensor stuff, etc.). 7900XTX should have been $700, maximum.
