RX 7700 XT vs The Hardest Games To Run in 2025

[@johnfreeman5956]

Great mid range card if I do say so myself, however with the recent sales the 7800 XT is "only" ~$30 more expensive lmao. And at that point you might just buy the 7800 XT for 4GB more VRAM and ~20% more performance

[@weluvcraig]

yes thiss

[@BearfootBob]

they are 80$ apart. 7700xt 410 7800xt 490 . price is roughly equal to performance difference

[@veiregor]

and at that point you are better off buying a 7900gre. You see how easy it is to go over budget?

[@goregejones7248]

Here in india 7700xt and 7800xt Has a difference of 8-10k rs

[@pzkpfwviii_maus]

@@veiregor i bought a 7900 gre, very nice gpu

[@Артём-ж3р8ы]

Thanks for the video bro! There is really not enough content there covering RX 7700XT Regarding Tarkov, it's severely bottlenecked by your CPU. Just look at the GPU usage percentage - it's around 40% at 1440p, meaning the card is barely doing anything...

[@Ricardo-xz4jz]

shouldn't higher resolution put the load on the gpu? (cmiiw, I'm new to pc)

[@Артём-ж3р8ы]

@Ricardo-xz4jz sure, but that doesn't remove the CPU bottleneck if there is one. Say, the GPU is capable of delivering 60+ consistent frames at 1440p, but the CPU can only provide 40-50 fps, then you're going to be stuck with that, no matter what (well, decreasing some CPU-intensive setting might help in some cases). The only real way to overcome any kind of hardware-related bottleneck is to upgrade the part that's bottlenecking your system (but realistically speaking, there will always be some kind of bottleneck no matter what)

[@Артём-ж3р8ы]

@Ricardo-xz4jz but the "trick" with increasing the resolution does make sense. Again, it won't magically let you get rid of a CPU bottleneck, but it can allow you to utilize your GPU's potential more For instance, you're playing a relatively demanding game with uncapped framerate at 1080p, and your GPU is never hitting 100% usage being held back by the CPU and providing, say, around 100 FPS. If you had a better CPU so that you could have a consistent 100% GPU load, you'd have a lot more frames, say 200+ instead Now, you increase the resolution up to 1440p and turn on some more GPU heavy settings like ray tracing. Now, your GPU is always at its 100% utilization and provides only around 60 FPS - thus, you've "unlocked" its full potential, and now the GPU becomes the bottleneck. But in cases of particularly CPU-heavy games, like Tarkov, no matter what you do - your CPU might never be able to allow for a full 100% GPU utilization

[@CheapBastard]

Great example! My man spitting facts here

[@Marin-u7h]

The same people who always say to other people that they have cpu bottleneck even if you have 9800x3d. So, all games are perfectly optimised and the problem is our CPUs.

[@feliksdzerzhinskij800]

Great video, it looks like my 7800XT is the solid GPU for 1080p and to future proof against games like GTA 6, Witcher 4 etc. I'm def not upgrading anytime soon.

[@Robamah]

amazing video as per usual boys

[@S0me1el5e]

thanks for good video as always keep it up,bro

[@nyranstanton203]

i kind of expect a a $900 - $1000 card in my country to be MINIMUM 60fps at any resolution lol. If its not its kind of a rip off. our monitors are 144 hz these days , not 60.

[@MirelRC]

I recommend that people try XeSS if it is integrated in the games they play with RX 6000 and 7000 GPUs. In some games, XeSS looks good enough, even at 1080p. It saved my RX 6600 on STALKER 2, and combined with FSR FG, it is even better. The only thing that would've made STALKER 2 a better experience for me would've been a better CPU optimization for that game.

[@torneroeu3867]

Great video! I just built my first pc with the same exact specs and I was wondering how new games would run

[@WasabiNoGhemu]

Bought this GPU during Black friday. I purchased it from Amazon germany and it costed me 370 Euros. While On amazon Italy the price was 440 Euros. It was a steal. looking forward to building my PC 💯

[@crazy_loco]

I bought my Gigabyte 7700XT last month with Amazon's Black Friday deals for 400€ with financing because I'm broke, and I want to finally be able to max a game's settings without getting 30 fps. I would have loved to buy a 7800XT, but the 7700 was the only decent GPU for that price (the 4060ti has worse performance and less VRAM) that also had the Amazon financing (no need for confirmation and 0% APR, and they send it immediately), and honestly I'm only going to play on 1080p, so it's going to have great performance for a good couple of years, so I don't have to change the GPU every 2 years.

[@goregejones7248]

Why do u have less views man, you should get millions of views

[@CheapBastard]

Thanks bro! One day... (Hopefully)

[@selohcin]

Those Cyberpunk numbers look suspiciously high. Did you use FSR?

[@CheapBastard]

Yup, I used FSR

[@xDraga]

tarkov likes cpu performance a lot that game is final boss of cpu benchmarks

[@TheDock_]

Tarkov is one of those games that needs a fast CPU or a x3D cpu

[@namecannotbeblank8920]

it's pretty close to my RX 6800. I couldn't stand not palying everything on max setting so I sold it xD

[@CheapBastard]

Daaaaaamn, so what did you get?

[@RirimoYT]

@@CheapBastard Guess we'll never know

[@eggominiwaffles5865]

Tarkov destroys literally any and every system that isn't over 2.5k

[@sc9433]

Cant believe 7700xt is being bottlenecked by a ryzen 7600. 😂😂😂 these new games are so unoptimized its stupid.

[@O_Shag_Hennessy]

What the hell was going on with Tarkov? Your GPU utilization was less than 40%...

[@1213-i7z]

Crazy engine.

[@CheapBastard]

I'm wondering the same thing bro 😂 no clue what was going on

[@BigFroppa]

"HONEY BUNN!!!"

[@Delkosta]

It's a great video, but how cheap it is aligned with rx 7700xt

[@CheapBastard]

It's a midrange graphics card, so for people buying new, it is one of the cheapest 1440p capable GPUs

[@Delkosta]

@CheapBastard so is an rtx 4070 a mid range ?

[@CheapBastard]

The 70 series yeah, are like "upper mid-range" although the prices aren't so mid-range anymore like before 😭

[@mr.sue2460]

not the hardest games to run its more like the most un optimized games to run

[@Proaz15]

🤦

[@jittercatgd]

stalker 2 soon

[@alancarr195]

Cs2 is very very cpu bound

[@Gil23]

Nice

[@fixfix980]

OMG. Your ignorance is staggering. In Tarkov you're experiencing huge bottleneck, also Fortnite 1080p, also Cyberpunk busy city areas are also cpu bound🙈😂

[@CheapBastard]

Don't forget that the gaming footage was recorded using AMD software on pretty high 50mb/s bitrate, so during filming, yes absolutely, cyberpunk and Fortnite is more CPU bound. As for tarkov, it just isn't optimized well. But at the end of the day, it doesn't change the fact that the RX 7700 XT can run these games pretty well

[@RirimoYT]

his ignorance is nowhere to be seen and you disrespectfully jumping to conclusion is the only stagger we see

[@REMYZEUS]

Use a little rt and this card becomes absolutely garbage but thats because amd skimped out on rt cores this gen hopefully the 8000 series can compete with ingreedia

[@CheapBastard]

Not absolutely garbage, but yeah, it is pretty weak on ray tracing in comparison to 4000 series 😭😂 hoping for the best in 8000 series 🤞
