Once a 32gb console comes out yeah. Until then 12gb is enough since that's the vram usage target for console's 16gb unified memory, and those assets are basically straight-up ported over to PC. Very few titles will bother enhancing assets above and beyond that for PC.

By that time, these cards will probably not be strong enough to drive desirable frame rates. I mean, look at the 1% lows, the 4070 is often beating the 7800XT despite the hampered Memory Bus..which matters more than people give credit for. Textures on high instead of Ultra at 1440p is not as big of a deal as stability, emulation performance, and features. Then again, this is assuming prices are similair.

@sgredsch8 ай бұрын
if the 4070 had 16gb vram it would be the go to pick hands down, but it doesnt and it stings, especially at that price point. however the more efficient memory management of nvidia shrinks the vram gap a bit. in real world terms the 4070 is more like a 14gb card if it was an amd card. with the 4070 you get about the same performance in raster with 100w less power draw, significantly better raytracing performance, dlss & framegen (for games such as cyberpunk), video super resolution (which is great for low bitrate/resolution web videos), cuda support, better video codecs (especially h264) and better application performance especially for 3d and cad. i like the amd driver interface better, the need to use afterburner for a simple undervolt is very convoluted. but that doesnt really outweight the pros of the 4070 over the 7800XT. the 7800XT should be a constant $100 below the 4070 to be a strong value competitor. at the same price, its just not worth it - give or take that 4gb (or rather 2gb) gap of vram. UNLESS you play call of duty, the extra performance of rdna2 and rdna3 is quite substantial here.

@@pkpnyt4711 The 6800 XT has also retained better resale value than its direct competitor, the RTX 3080, at least relative to the original MSRP. I think they tend to go for roughly the same price, but last I checked, 3080's were going for a bit less than the 6800 XT. Clearly the big difference in the vram capacity has something to do with that, as people are afraid that 10GB will seriously limit the 3080. The 4070 ti is another Nvidia card with a very low vram capacity for its price tier, and the same thing could easily happen again with the 4070 ti vs AMD's closest competitor, the 7900 XT.

Sorry, Bryan - one correction: percentile frametime values are NOT fps values and SHOULD NOT be converted into fps numbers. Many outlets make this mistake but it's like quoting an acceleration value and turning it into a velocity value.... Other than that - excellent review! I've also looked at 7800XT vs 4070 (I have the "reference" models of each) and the 4070 is an amazing card for SFF and power efficient builds. The 7800XT is, overall, the higher performing card if you discount RT but even then it can be pretty close depending on what settings you play at. My leaning is more towards the 4070 because it's available in very small sized two-fan configs, whereas the 7800XT's smallest design I've found is the Sapphire Pulse, which /just about/ fits inside my SFF case. On the other hand, the Geforce cards in those small designs are all very cheap feeling, which I'm not a fan of...

@@syncmonism Technically, you're correct. However, the AMD reference design basically doesn't exist (and certainly not available in my region). The Pulse 7700 XT and 7800 XT are essentially the reference design with a slightly longer PCB (which is mostly just empty space) and a few extra resistors/capacitors in optional spots and a HDMI port swapped in for a DP port. The difference in size is minimal, too. So, for me, the Pulse is the defacto reference design since there's no OC and no special board alterations. It's also the cheapest and smallest design you can buy from any partner. The rest are all three fan configs which are too long to get into my SFF case.

Instead of dealing with these issues again with AMD, I decided to return the 7800 XT and order a 4070.

First of all if you come to need more vram for nvidia you have to go up to almost $1000 for the next model card. Whereas the 7800xt already has 4gb more. And if you have a Ryzen cpu together with the Amd gpu they both interact to make better performance. It is impressive though that the 4070 is only at 192 bit vs the 256 bit on the XT and yet perform that well.

I recently upgraded my system from Ryzen 5 2600 + Asus ROG GTX1070 to an Intel 13600KF + Sapphire Nitro+ 7800xt. To those who are into "content creation" such as streaming. Your best bet would be to go with the RTX4070. Sure its just 12GB but what most content creators and tech youtubers have not said is that the encoding across all platforms is just better when it comes down to AV1 vs H264 and NVENC. The NVENC encoder is at the current time superior over the rest of the encoders as it is widely supported by different platforms such as twitch, youtube, FB etc. It will not require you to have super high bitrate just to stream a really crisp image to your viewers. AV1 is supported by both cards however the platforms that support it is at the current time is just KZbin. If you stream on Twitch, the AV1 encoding is not available yet. That said, you will be stuck with H264 which is suffering from pixelation when you do rapid/sudden movements or anything that requires fast/quick movements. Nvidia's NVENC encoder does not suffer from this. 16GB is nice if you are just aiming to game but if you ever want to do productivity, NVIDIA cards such as the 4070 is a much better card for your needs. 12GB of ram is more than enough even for fortnite lumen high. If in the near future platforms such as twitch would start supporting AV1 then you can go with the 7800xt but at the moment, 7800xt is just good if you want MORE VRAM for your games. Don't rely on the amd cards for productivity. You will just be as disappointed as I am.

Got myself a PNY 4070 for A$870 to finally replace my EVGA 1080ti Black. I didn't plan on it but for StarField mainly I decided I needed it after noticing the bottleneck. Undervolting went from 180w down to never over 135w with no noticeable FPS difference due to also OC on the VRAM. Size, power usage and heat are all considerations as I only run ITX. I was originally planning on doing a MB, CPU and Ram upgrade to AM5 but it looks like my 7700K lives on for a couple years longer.

I wouldn't buy a new 12GB card now, unless I'm certain it's going to be used in 1080P. Otherwise I wouldn't buy a new card before the Super series is released. Naturally if you are ok with buying another card within 1-2 years of time you can't go wrong with either of them, up to your personal preference, use cases. I'm rocking with a used 3090 probably until it dies, so I can have the benefit of Nvidia tech and sw support with a good amount of VRAM. I don't care about DLSS FG, that's the only drawback of this card except for power consumption which I equally don't care much about. In the current market if I was to buy another GPU I would probably buy a used 3090 again.

7800 xt is the same or better than a 3090 in 1440p and slightly gets overperformed by 3090 in 4k. If you don't plan on playing in 4k there's literally no point in buying a 4 year old used card that god knows how it was used.

@@GodOfWar05100 I agree that we are starting to see better value now and yeah the 7800XT is one of them. I do believe that DLSS is better than FSR (as an upscaler) but if you are not tied to Nvidia (for some kind of non gaming use case) you should consider AMD as an option. For my perspective I like to play around with Stable Diffusion, so I value the advantage Nvidia has in this field and I wouldn't go below 24GB VRAM either. For me the 3090 is a best in slot card (aside from the 4090 lol), so considering price and performance. This is until AMD has better support here, if this was the case now I would probably buy a 7900XTX over it. I would at least consider it for sure.

Buyers of 4070 12GB and 4070ti 12GB are similar types of cuckolds that bought the 3070 8GB and 3070ti 8GB in the last generation. Especially since PS5 pro and PS6 specs are leaked. and about just lowering the settings. The setting you will most likely be lowering are textures. And those will always be the most graphically impactful settings, while they will have no performance impact on gpus with 16GB of vram. But you will just buy another gpu in 2025. or 2026. when 12GB is not even close to enough for high textures? Great for you, spend $500 or $600 every 2 years. Instead of spending $500 every 4 years.

I like DLSS frame generation when its supported and power consumption is kind of important to me. But I really wanted the 16G VRAM. Im not a big fan of Nvidia GeForce Experience for recording gameplay. But AMD STILL doesn't support frame generation. I considered the 7600 XT but it performs slightly worse natively and has no real frame gen. Admittedly I turn ray tracing off in most games. I play at 1080P with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU.

Also, the better power efficiency definitely should be considered a significant advantage in some regions. Electricity prices are insanely high in some countries/ regions. Most parts of North America have very, very low electricity prices compared to almost all of Europe, and some other regions (such as Japan). Reducing the power consumption by even 50 watts under average gaming load is going to make a big difference over the course of 2-4 years in these places.
