AMD Radeon "Big Navi" GPU Benchmarked in Firestrike Ultra

Benchmark scores are all fine and good, but I'm waiting until we see actual gaming benchmarks.
 
Well... my 3080 wont ship til november so i may end up with an AMD GPU this year...

seems your wish to have leaks come true! :D
 
It's not about favoring AMD cards, it's an old benchmark that everyone heavily optimized for it.
Actual games need people from AMD getting involved and this means money.
Amd might have a better card but if it's not used properly even a midrange card from Nvidia can beat everything AMD has and this actually happened with with some games with vega64.
Something tells me that new games will be optimized for RDNA2 hardware :kookoo:
 

Spilling the salt is very bad luck. We're driving across the country, the last thing we need is bad luck. Toss some salt over your right shoulder.
Okay, who's the dead man that hit me with a salt shaker?

I'm eagerly waiting reviews on AMD's end to see where things all land. Hopefully they can best or at least equal the performance of a 3070 with a better price point.

Looks great! Basically it's better at "normal" graphics processing, but worse in ray tracing. Me, don't care about RT for now, so I'm down with RX 6k.
 
5700XT beats RTX 2080 in firestrike ultra :

yet still slower than 2080 in actual games.Firestrike ultra favors too much to AMD cards.
Or maybe most games are not optimized enough so that AMD cards could gain enough from those. As far as I remember, regarding concurrent cards, AMD is usually better in raw power. It's not AMD's fault that developers don't spend enough time to optimize their games. BTW, what shows a cards power more realistically: a benchmark program developed for specific measurements or an unoptimized game? :D

how does that work mussells ? have you paid and can swap ?

6800XT has the cut-down 72CU. So, the 6900XT could end up at least 10-15% faster than this. Let's see if RDNA2 is the best gaming gpu arch ever. Just a few days remain.

That is about what I thought it would be. Ray Tracing performance goes to Nvidia, pure rastorization performance could lean AMD.
 
Why do you think that?
If you read all articles about AMD written by TPU you can answer by yourself. AMD didnt gave them their high end CPU to test and this will happen to gpu
 
I hope TPU gets their hands on a XT and a XTX for full reviews.
 
Well, while this makes things interesting I will hold out my excitement until we see independent results and more game benchmarks.

If it is as it shows here, I will definitely pick one up over a 3080/3090 (Mostly because of availability at this point but also because 3090 is not that much different from 3080 at the end of the day).
 
Igor estimated!
 
I wonder if @EarthDog 's getting twitchy, I know I am.
Only one avatar will survive :p :) :D

I would say it favors AMD a bit more, around 10% extra performance compared to nVidia. So lets hope that this is a real like and this is Navi 21 XL, because that would mean the performance would be similar to the RTX 3080.
In this chart, 5700XT matches the 2070Super score. But in realtive game performance the 5700XT loses from 2070Super by ~8%.
So if this big navi is ahead of 3080 by ~8.5% then on gaming it will be ~equal.
