AMD "Navi 31" Memory Cache Die Has Preparation for 3D Vertical Cache?

[kapone32]

Don't they perform already exceptionally in raster?
I mean why do you or everyone need more performance in raster? Even my 2080Ti provides enough raster performance for any game today.
Let alone the 6800/6950XTs.
The RT performance is the one that matters and the 3D V cache won't solve that problem.

I don't use Adobe, but engineering software from Autodesk, Leica Geosystems, Bentley etc.
And yes, there are no alternatives to that kind of software. And yes, most of them take advantage of CUDA cores.

I suppose it was the same with the nvenc. At least the 7900s support AV1.

In your opinion. I am a Gamer and don't really make content other than using AMD software. All of those other programs are nice but I already have a career and Gaming is my hobby so if they release a GPU that pushes my current monitor to it's max then I am cool with it. All GPUs are overpriced but people still buy them and let's keep in mind that AMD also exhibits with these new cards what the consoles can look forward to. I can promise you I don't need RT to enjoy Spiderman but if I have a card that will gove me 200 FPS at 4K then why would I say no?

That is your opinion. Do you have a 6900XT? I see you have a 580 and promise you that when you step back and actually use the product instead of reading about how you think they would perform you will see what I mean. You have a 580 so I will break it down for you. Vega 64 was as fast as 2 optimized 580s in Crossfire. The 2080TI was 40% faster than a Vega 64. The 5700XT was as fast as a Vega 64 with 1/2 the power draw. The 6900XT is about 30% faster than a 2080TI in some Games but faster overall in everything. I have had the XTX and XT and both cards blow my 6800XT away in performance. Adding Vcache to avoid using system memory is always better and we don't know what SAM will look like with a Vcache CPU and GPU working together. I will be happy to sell a couple PCs to buy the X670E Ace Max and enjoy it. Regardless of how you feel because in PC means P means Personal there is no wrong choice. I will get blasted for this but I own a 6500XT and it one of my favourite purchases ($149 US) over the last few releases.

We are in a forum, we post opinions. You also post opinions. That's the idea of a forum. I started my post with "I doubt", not with "I know". If you think that you KNOW the performance difference between a 7900XTX at it's current version and a future 7900XTX X3D with V cache, then there is nothing more to post here.
