Why is it acceptable to anyone to have to buy a 1440p or 4k system to only be forced to play in 1080p because that system can't handle the gimmick that is ray and path tracing at a reasonable frame rate? Once enabling that feature while running native with no upscalers doesn't drop the fps by half or more (even when running a 4090 it does that) it won't be a gimmick. It MIGHT look better (kind of) but it's not worth dropping below 60 fps for (much less the 30 you say you are fine with at 1080p). Especially if you are playing any kind of multiplayer game. Don't get me wrong. The concept is very cool, and I can't wait for it to be viable for every game. But it's nowhere near usable or even worthwhile for the VAST majority of gamers, and even the 4090 doesn't really get there in newer games at a reasonable fps at 4k, and the 4090 is wasted on playing anything at 1440p much less 1080p. The MINIMUM you should have to do ray tracing of any kind is a 4070 super. Don't tell me the 2070 can even come close to handling a modern ray traced title. That's flat out lying, no matter how your tweak the settings. Unless you want to play in 720p I guess, at which point it's not worth it for the drop on resolution. It's a gimmick, and it will continue to be a gimmick for at least 2 or 3 more gpu generations. Additionally, this video is specifically giving info for GAMING.

I'd say the 7800XT is a proper mid-range card performance wise and that's exactly in line with the conclusion of this video. Nvidia low end is matching up against AMD mid range here.

[@albert2006xp]

GPU youtube comments are like an unpaid AMD marketing department, so you saying this is funny. Native does not look as good as DLDSR+DLSS at same performance. Native means you use the basic TAA anti-aliasing the game has, which is awful. Nobody's buying a 4060 Ti 16Gb for pure game performance. It's a price gouged way to get a 16Gb Nvidia card for local AI. Which sucks but if you can't afford a 4070 Ti Super or 4080 when the card actually came out, you don't have other options. Considering the alternative is getting extorted with 8Gb cards at those prices, it could be worse. I wish the next gen has the same pay $100 more to double VRAM option because I 100% will take it, preferably a 5070 24Gb though. That's preferable to getting more raster performance but being scammed on VRAM because Jensen doesn't have to compete with his own AI server products when the GPU competition is so bad. Working overtime to stan AMD for their lack of effort isn't helping, in fact, it just encourages them to keep dropping the ball. I have more faith in Intel at this point in the GPU market. They show a little bit of a promise that we might eventually get out from under Nvidia's tyrannical monopoly.

Daniel, before handing out wins for DLSS vs FSR quality by default, keep in mind that Hellblade and others still give you the option to also use Intel XeSS. In Hellblade I needed just a small bump to get over 60 and XeSS did that at a better quality than FSR, so that option is always there, eliminates some of the typical FSR artifacts with a slightly lower FPS bump.

[@ehenningsen]

XESS is definitely a competitor to DLSS, FSR is a much different implementation

[@stangamer1151]

You should take into account that on AMD GPUs XESS performs significantly slower than FSR. Especially on older and weaker ones (like 6600/6650/XT and 5700/XT). So XESS is not always the best way to play games. It depends on a certain game and certain card. Faster cards loose less frames when switching to XESS.

[@chrissoclone]

@@stangamer1151 I stated that in my comment - if you need just a small FPS bump to get over 60 but want better image quality, try XeSS. If FPS is your main concern use FSR and live with a slightly softer image or a bit of shimmering. I didn't say it's the best option, just that it IS an option and alternative. I use it in Hellblade 2 to get from somewhere in the 50s just to a steady 60 at a better quality, if I wanted 70 FPS I'd use FSR.

Yet more people will still buy the 4060ti over the 7800xt.

[@hiimshana]

Because you know a GPU is not only for gaming, right? AMD doesn’t have NVENC, just as an example.

[@CellDE]

well the power consumption could be a deal for some ... the 7800 xt draw about 100 watts more ...

[@AaVase]

in USA 1kwh is only 0.165$ (rx 7800 xt uses 250w but its psu should be 700w and 4060 ti uses 145w which needs 550w psu) so you are telling me to save 150w which is literlity 0.033 doller you will not buy the 40%+ 50%+ Preformeness?, even if you left your pc for 100% load 700w for 24h it will cost you 2.7$ and its usually at 40% 60% load so it will never use 700w, 4060ti at 100% load 550w for 24h costs 2.1$

[@Adreno23421]

240W vs 140W though.... in several years you'll end up paying more for the 7800xt if you consider the energy consumption.

[@SirMo]

4060ti showed 163w while 7800xt showed 240 watt. That's basically 40% more power, but you also get that much more performance. So in terms of perf/watt they have very similar efficiency. Also if you want to lower power use, it is very easy to do with a number of tricks. You can frame cap and lower graphic settings which can make the GPU sip power. You can also use a thing called Radeon Chill.

[@yasu_red]

The 7800 XT performing drastically better in many cases would encourage keeping it for longer instead of spending money on upgrading, so power consumption is a moot point.

[@Adreno23421]

@@SirMo Yup, perf/watt is very similar. Oh yeah, undervolting tends to use a lot less energy for not that much less FPS, true!

[@Adreno23421]

@@yasu_red Yeah, you might be right. Also, you can make it spend less energy without losing that much performance, and then it is probably even better long term.

There is no such thing as a bad gpu, just a badly priced one, and the 4060ti checks all the boxes for this quote

[@lufego87]

RX 7800 XT does a great job but look at that power consumption, it consumes 100W more than the RTX 4060 TI. Wouldn't worth buying a 4070 if that one delivers a similar performance while consuming less energy?

[@shadowlemon69]

i bought a saphirre 7800xt for 350$ an im loving this card!

[@kiss4luna]

but in every single game test, 7800XT has around 100W more power consumption than 4060 Ti. performance per watts is one of my critical purchase factor now even consider the price differences. i just checked Amazon, 4060 Ti 16GB costs 440, 7800XT cost 410, considering the max 15% performance gain in 7800XT, I will choose 4060 Ti 16GB for the 100W lower power consumption and 30 dollar higher price and around 10% lower performance. especially considering the power consumption, 7800XT costs near 70% more power than 4060 Ti 16GB but performance gains only around 15%~20%? And 30 dollars cheaper that's just nothing comparing to my daily living cost if I'm going to use these GPU for 1 year or more. in some area in 2022, my 1 year power fee for running 7x24 with 4 300W GPUs can buy almost 4 more GPUs, that's insane and is why I consider performance per power very seriously.

[@megadeth8592]

it doesnt make as big a diff as people think year to year......

[@pwnomega4562]

Undervolting: *am I a joke to you?*

[@PracticalPcGuide]

@@pwnomega4562 undervolting means less clock speed to cope. 2970 to 3000Mhz core clock. 10251Mhz mem clock for the max of 165W and 47 to 65C here with my 4060TI 16GB. Huge difference especially in productivity and daily work. GPU running 16H a day with at least 6H full load. big $ savings there..

[@henrytuttle]

I just bought one. 2 reasons. #1, power consumption. I have an HP with a small power supply. I couldn't have used almost anything else. #2, AI. Most local LLM models use the NVidia CUDA tensor model. AMD isn't really even supported yet. I wish I could have bought something else, but it would have required dumping my PC entirely and buying something new. And I still would have been stuck with purchasing NVidia.

[@strixhg24]

I have RTX 4060ti 8gb, if it is a good idea to upgrade rx7800xt 16gb ???

[@ferluisch]

I know gaming 7800xt (and all amd) is the best value for your buck, but nvidia has such a lead in the ai space (cuda) that is not a real consideration for me at least :/

[@allcarparebeautiful]

Interesting so do you use your system exclusively for AI and Cuda applications? Because otherwise the comment you wrote would make about as much sense as spreading a jar full of black mold instead of a jar of peanut butter on bread

[@SirMo]

Even in AI, the 7800xt is better than 4070 because the extra VRAM you get which is very important in AI workloads. And it will absolutely blow the 4060ti 16GB out of the water since 7800xt has twice the memory bandwidth. So if you care about AI, 7800xt is still a better GPU. AMD's ROCm has gotten a lot better in the last year, and I think no doubt will continue to close the gap with CUDA.

[@ferluisch]

@@SirMo while promising I'd like to see a benchmark to confirm what you re mentioning, ROCm is really good in some scenarios but not much people have implemented it on LLM applications, do you have a link so we can check that?

It's not hard to find $30 in a build if you're ok getting a little less ram this month and getting a bit more next, or getting a CPU with a stock cooler and using that until you feel like upgrading. If I got a budget I'm picking graphics card first and making everything else fit, within reason.

Pricing of that 7800 XT feels like a fluke. In my country the 4060 Ti 16 GB is the exact same price as the 7700 XT (equivalent to $470) and the 7800 XT is $110 more. Seems perhaps a bit more reasonable given the performance difference.
