AMD marketing bullshitted again. they are falling further and further behind Nvidia. They can't even compete with NVIDIA with their full chip and can only match a cut-down x70 equivalent Nvidia card in raster only.

Nvidia still has a full on chip in their sleeve that they can deploy that is stronger than the 4090. AMd used to fight with NVIDIA with their full chips now fighting the x70 equivalent card sad

nobody fell for any hype here, just commenting how far AMD engineering are now compared nvidia, they used to be equal in competence now AMD is far behind

I don't understand, what was the overhype here? They said 7900XTX will compete with the 4080, and it does. It's faster than the 4080 in raster, slower in RT, yet cheaper. When and where did you see the 7900XTX competing with a xx70 series card from Nvidia?

7900XT is a dumb card I agree, it should have just been called a 7800XT and be sold at the RM3.5k price point.

It seems like the existence of the XT spec is only to push ppl to buy the XTX cards. lol...

Very much yes.

I see no reason why they couldn't call the 7900XT a 7800XT. This means then they have no answer to the fake 4080 aka probably the 4070Ti when it launches in a month's time or so.

There are more and more issues of 7900XTX owners reporting absurd hotspots of 110c (or more). AMD says it is "within spec, you all just making a big issue out of thin air".

That said there has been some reports of 7900XTX cards causing massive throttling as a result of this.

Some reddit threads where even PowerColor rep is asking for DMs about their issues to send to AMD:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/zvvci..._else_for_that/

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/zw9tu..._xtx_with_110c/

As always, take reddit threads with a huge grain of salt because they like to exaggerate and make up bullshit.
