In the past AMD adjusted pricing to be a better value for the 99% of us that do not need that feature set but now? This release? Not sure what their game is. If the 7900XT does not come down in price I will get a 4070ti when I see one on sale. AMD maybe is not all that concearned with this part of the GPU market but if they want to gain more marketshare they need to.

As someone that used a 6900XT for 3D characters and animations for 2 years (need alot of VRAM and at the time the 3090 was way to expensive) and switched to a 4090. It isn't about just the performance its about how far behind AMD is from Nvidia when it comes to drivers, software support etc. As soon as I installed the 4090 the software I have been using for years CC3+ and Iclone had a massive 5GB update that added soooo much stuff that made animations, and making characters soooo much easier. Now I am making scenes with 10+ characters on it running at 4k 60fps. I don't think I'll ever go back to AMD. They are just to far behind Nvidia.

ain't a big content creator nor a professional, but i had a weird experience with AMD too. Got a 6950xt like, two months before the 7000 release, and since first day i experienced unstabilities with it. What's funny is that in-game the cards performs really well, i play with the aim to have as much frames and stability as possible, and it somehow achieved that. What's fuzzy is when you use the gpu in the most regular way : on windows desktop. Black screens freezes, black screen crashes, driver crashs, white flashes, stutters for no reasons, and all that with sometimes really basic stuff like putting your cursor from a window to an other in the task bar, or just highlighting the effect when your mouse is on the closing icon window or reducing one. Even when watching videos or streams you have like a "epileptic madness" mode that appears and makes the screen flashing every 3 seconds, crazy to see trust me on my words. GPU is going in the repair zone, i just hope they'll say it's not fixable so that i can get a refund and go for a 4070ti. AMD isn't for high-end/pro uses.

A Threadripper is probably overkill for your workload. Currently, Blender prefers single thread performance for most operations, apart from sculpting and rendering (which isn't relevant if you use your GPU for rendering). As for game engines, having many cores improves compilation speed, but unless you are a programmer this isn't a bottleneck to your workflow.

Blender is definitely the application where I had the worst experience with AMD cards so far - and the reason I keep a 4070 around. Oddly not the case in all applications trying to do similar things, though. For instance, particle systems in Blender are faster with Nvidia but running 3D particle systems in Particle Illusion standalone has been faster for me with both the Arc A770 16GB and 7800 XT than the 4070, even with really low VRAM usage, often shaving a minute or more off what were 7 minute renders with the 4070. I think it might be because of lower driver overhead because it was hard to get results that weren’t at least somewhat CPU limited in that application even on a 13900K.

Now it is a matter of minutes and requires a system restart. A lot of software should be better than it is, and ALL programs and drivers should completely uninstall themselves.

Until the new driver that came out yesterday I didn't have any crashing issues, rolled back to the previous and now all is well again so I'm good on that front. When it comes to editing in Premiere pro it seems like motion graphics (mogrts) don't get any hardware acceleration or something. They playback way slower than my 1080 in the timeline and seem to take longer to render for export too. Inconvenient but I could probably live with it. But ultimately why I'm looking at switching to a 4080 now is the quality of game recordings using the hardware encoder. I have tried tweaking a bunch of settings but there often seem to be these weird artifacts in the recording around moving objects that I never noticed with my 1080 (which IIRC has a worse encoder than the 20X0 series onwards)

There is a reason Nvidia holds 80% + GPU market share and I gladly pay 100-300 USD for Nvidia compared to AMD GPU with almost same performance because of the extra or better features.

Nvidia also leading in RTX quality and performance. The driver support is more reliable in Nvidia.

I know old vid, just a tip, for all gpu card users, including nvidia have had similar issues. mainly on default fan speeds, insane settings. the problem with amd is a range of problems and they do not seem to listen, i have been on this for years now on amd forums warning people about theses crazy default settings. 1. the cooling paste is of such poor quality that you be wise to replace it with your own better quality, the paste that comes with the card, is already dried up and does not cool as good, so after 1 maybe 2 years depending on use or how long it was on display or in the stock, your card starts to artifact the screen, and at times create sort of screen blinking, quick off on. When used longer your card will crash and start with artefacting the crap out of it until it goes PROOF. 2. fan settings sucks, always check your gpu fan setting also nvidia users, better yet make your own, and to be sure use a external program and not radeon drivers, they always revert back to default nuts settings, when it crashes, try setting it at manual, and see what your default fan settings are, mine rx580 was set at max 90 degrees and fan speed at 80%, no wonder it was crashing. Make sure your fans run at max speed when they reach around 63 degrees, zero fan speed at certain low temp(DONT), disable that at once, make sure your fans spin at all times. 3. power control and options or settings as default, change it asap, undervolt your gpu and frequency on the gpu core, and store and run it as default in an external program(msi afterburner). Go -50 on the voltage, and minus 200 on your gpu core, check your temps while you adjust the settings during a heavy gpu test program. Go up 1 point on the voltage and 4 on the frequency until you reach a sweet spot at around 60 to 63 degrees, and then go 2 voltages below that, make sure your card does not reach higher then 63 degrees, you can go higher on that, but make sure you test it good, any artefacting, screen blinking, system reset/restart or program freezing go lower on the temps by loewring voltage and frequency. 4. last but not least the radeon software, man what can i say it does not even remember or apply your own settings when it reverts back to gpu default settings, during a crash or a freeze, and that is a huge problem on top of the 3 previous mentioned hardware misconfigure problems on hardware level, that makes your card go poof withing 2 years and 2 months on heavy use. I had issues after 8 months with my new rx6750xt that started blinking and later 1,5 years when it started to shutdown my pc for no reason or even freezed the game i was playing without any description on why yeh DXGI crash and driver reset to default. i changed my cooling paste, adjusted my fans to run at max speed at 63 degrees, undervolted to 1158(default=1200), and went to 2664 (default = 2694)on the gpu frequency, did not have a single issue after those changes. max temps at 63 degrees, but hardly reaches 58. The reason i keep using msi afterburner for my fan and volage control is, that amd radeon is a piece of crap software that keeps reverting to the crazy settings and burn your gpu out of exsistance within 2 years and 2 months, i lost a rx580 due to this. Amd default fan and voltage setting do not take in account the poor quality of the cooling paste and the dry up time of that same paste, they are to close and temps are to high and fan speeds to low at insane temps, and fine tuned the crap out of it to a literal dead spot, and a gpu card breaking spot with all 4 mentioned problems. This 7900xt will work fine if you change the cooling paste, lower your voltages, and temps, adjust your fan speeds,and start using msi afterburner as default voltage and fan control, do not rely on radeon software.PERIOD

For the 4070 in Resolve I tested both solo and with a 3060 for dual processing and the 7800 XT outperformed both. I’d have to double check the 4070 number - I may be giving you the dual processing one. Resolve Studio 18.5.1 7800 XT 3260 Extended Overall 3747 Standard Overall 4070 2718 Extended Overall 3053 Standard Overall Premiere Pro 23 7800 XT 715 Extended Overall 1032 Standard Overall 4070 713 Extended Overall 964 Standard Overall As a side note, in Premiere Pro 23.6, the Arc A770 16GB was faster at processing (not encoding) h.264 footage paired with the iGPU in PugetBench than any other combo I tested. Here are my best runs with each. 4070: 201.82 fps 7800 XT: 213.18 fps Arc A770 16GB: 237.12 fps So 17.5% faster at that than the 4070 and 10.9% faster than the 7800 XT.

Two things about PC going black. PSU, memory. A system freeze would typically leave an image on the monitor. Having said that I'm skeptical about RDNA 3 right now. RDNA 2 is wonderful but it's not as good statistically in video editing. RDNA 3 does a bit to supposedly improve video editing or video capturing, etc.... But you still have the issue that different software is optimized for Nvidia GPUs. I think right now they could be causing some power spikes and because the 7900 XT is a power hungry GPU it is more likely to drop the system from time to time when it happens. The other thing is you THINK the memory is stable, until you do something different and your system drops. Using a faster GPU could be causing a little instability in the system, especially when you are pointing to a 3950X as the CPU you're using. That's a very fast GPU paired with the FIRST really good Ryzen CPU AMD made, Zen 2 but it gets blasted by something 2 generations newer and even Zen 3 16c/32t uplifts are excellent. Yeah just checked and you're using 3600 memory with a 16c/32t CPU and yes I realize you only swap out the GPU, but swapping out a GPU can mean making other components work more, or less. I don't have good luck with 3600 memory with any Zen CPUs, although the APUs work with faster memory. But, I know plenty of people run 3600 with no problem, If you're using 4 sticks of 3600 with Zen 2 you're really pushing the boundaries of what any Ryzen AM4 CPU will do. I didn't go back to watch your system build, don't want to, but that's an issue if you're doing that and I'd slow it down to 3200 CL14 with 4 sticks. In other words, this might SEEM like a GPU problem. Whether it is or not would require more testing on your part by one, putting in a more powerful GPU and two switching out memory with 3200 CL14, because that GPU could be making your system work harder than you've pushed it before.

I got the trouble same as this channel said when I change the graphic card from RX 560 to RTX 3080 but don't uninstall 100% the current GPU driver. And with AMD, it happens even when I haven't change the card but only the driver, if I don't remove the previous driver in the right way to make it 100% clear, AMD have a tool call "AMD Cleanup Utility" to do this job (I don't know if nVidia has the same one?!). When I'm not sure if it's clear or not, I have to reinstall the Windows to make sure. So when you change the graphic card in the same Windows system, make sure it (the previous driver) clear 100% if you'd like to run it smoothly. PS: I'm using Windows 11 Workstation now.

pro drivers doesn't improve performance really, just for stability in games and software like random closes and restart he got, it may do a better job than game ready drivers. in your case see if disabling ULPS (Ultra Low Power State) with msi afterburner do any help. it can cause slow downs and even black screen for some users.

[@ArdeliaSetterberg-zn8ph]

Great insight into GPU performance for creators!

[@Wyrade]

Are you sure you had a good enough PSU for this? Maybe this card has unusually high power spikes and causes it to fail in these unexplicable ways when the PSU can't give it enough. (Ofc there can be many other reasons.)

[@suoyidl2654]

It is definitly because of the PSU. Probably they wired the GPU wrong (it needs 3 12V Rails)

[@NeoStarImpact]

I have a Be Quite 850w alongside the XTX. It runs. And it never crashed but. But I don't think it's optimal and streses the PSU over time. The GPU can go up to almost 450w on it's own. And who knows what micro power surges the card can do. So I am now looking to upgrade it to a 1000w or even 1200w. 1200w would be better for the headroom

I run a metal detecting channel and editing 5.7 k video in the cyberLink software platform. Similar to DaVinci, my software is constantly clocking and I find myself waiting for everything If not watching the program crash at random times. I went to go build a new system based on Ryzen 7950x, Asus X670E-E strix, Nvidia video 4080 card. I wanted the 4090 but it was absurdly overpriced. Reading all these comments about instability, which is what I see now, would make me go ballistic if I were to spend all that money only to find out that buying an AMD video card would put me in the same place I am now editing on a silly laptop dealing with instability as a regular affair. I am confident that buying the Nvidia 4080 was the right choice even though some of the specs may not be on par with the AMD premier card as it stands in quarter 3/2023. Keep up the Creator content as it relates to computer builds because it does help people.

Sad to hear that the newer cards (or drivers) behave the same as it happened to me but with RX 6700 XT in Windows 10 - the stop of video signal (blank screen) at random times even when using Excel. I use for editing HitFilm Express and any driver after 22.5.1 WHQL make the timeline freeze, rendering the program unusable. I recently found in the Reliability History that the video signal loss happened after Windows Update updated the video driver in the background. The workaround is to enable the 'Do not include drivers with Windows Updates' local policy. I must say I had no such issues when using the GTX 1660 OC card.

[@Ben-Rogue]

I've had Windows force their version of the driver for my 6700XT once before, it snuck in through update when I was actually doing a clean driver install manually for another issue. It made things dramatically worse... Some versions of their drivers are really bad. It's unfortunately a matter of finding a stable driver, and only updating every 6 months or so, to test fot the latest stable drivers

[@sirbughunter]

Omg... Now it all makes sense. I am not a creator. But I bought a 7900 XTX OC card and noticed Windows 11 restarting SO MANY times, even when I had the card set to default settings that I thought something could be wrong with my hardware. But alas, it seems like the recent driver updates fixed this behaviour. Or a recent Windows 11 Beta update did. Either way, I haven't had a forced restart on my end for days now (which is still sad that I can be happy about that, but what gives...) and I think I can pretty much say that the behaviour stopped happening. At least as often as it did before. I will keep having an eye on the situation. But I'm pretty confident that AMD finally did something major for stability improvements with their recent drivers.

[@IsraelSocial]

W11 has issues with amd cpus not gpus! Check that first

[@sirbughunter]

@@IsraelSocial Yeah, I also have an AMD CPU ^^ I think the 5800 X3D caused the issues.

[@headbreakable]

only 850W? broh, you need 1000+W for a high end GPU...your instable might cause by psu, and it's not like it haven't happened before.

[@neirad537]

As a premiere user, every update is some new crash and weird behavior, and that's working on with AMD and Nvidia. same cards , same workflow and every time premiere update fix a thing then break a thing.

[@mrrexy4151]

Why don't you swich to DaVinci...it's much more stable and andvanced vs PP...or you just used to PP

[@wzhoang]

I'm freelancer and I have i5 12400 32GB Ram RX 6800XT. I did a lot editing on Reslove, Pr or even Ae and got the issues you have in the video. For personal experience, Nvida and Intel still great choice for creator. Waiting for 15th Intel CPU, I'll do a new high-end PC for editing.

[@jaffarbh]

For AMD, creators are second-class citizens after gamers, full stop. But it’s about time to see how Team-Blue is doing in this department after several driver updates (I refer to the Arc 700 series).

[@amrishpatel3501]

I'm actually rooting for Team Blue to answer the call for creators since AMD continues to ignore that market.

[@hatemadness]

Well being that this is a gaming GPU I guess that is acceptable. They do have graphics cards for professionals.

[@chewcm3507]

@@hatemadness But computer graphic sector always utilize gaming card better than professional card

[@hatemadness]

@@chewcm3507 correct me if I am wrong. But wasn't he talking about Adobe premiere pro? Isn't that a editing software?

[@chewcm3507]

As far as I know Video editing does not benefit much from professional card as well

[@ZephrusPrime]

Did you update the AMD CPU Chipset Drivers?

[@estacaotech]

I've had problems like that editing when I had an AMD GPU, the software crashed, sometimes I lost the footage, and other annoying stuff, then I got the GTX 1060 in 2018 and never had any problems after that. AMD is amazing for gaming but if you are a content creator or use a GPU for professional workloads then Nvidia is a bit ahead when it comes to performance but also far ahead when it comes to compatibility and stability.

[@twoeggcups]

2018 called: it wants its helpful anecdotes back.

[@PjotrII]

I expect but can´t say the reason, but I used Hitfilm to edit video, and it crashed with AMD on a regular basis... tested different drivers, tips & tricks... but it continued. To be noted, all AMD users did NOT experience the same issues.

[@Mostly_Positive_Reviews]

I had the same issue when I tested the 6900XT. Swapped out my 3080 with the 6900XT for testing, and immediately I had random restarts of my PC with no error messages whatsoever. Games crashing to desktop with AMD driver then reporting "wattman settings have restored to default", even though everything was running at stock. Then came my Adobe Premier testing, and I found the same as you. It would be blazing fast when it comes to scrubbing etc, but then Adobe would just close. For no reason. I lasted a week then put the 3080 back in and no more random restarts or Adobe crashing. For those thinking I am silly for "upgrading" from a 3080 to a 6900XT, it wasnt an upgrade. I really wanted to see what day-to-day life with a high-end Radeon GPU would be like, as I believe you cant really have an opinion on something if you havent tested it for yourself. Well, I tested it and I was extremely disappointed. I have a 6600XT in my 2nd gaming PC and that card is just awesome, so I thought the 6900XT would be great as well. I am not saying that Nvidia doesnt have issues, but when it came to my use case, the 3080 was just infinitely more stable and reliable. Currently test-driving the 4070 Ti and been using it for exactly a week now with no issues either.

[@beejsplacegamesloungelagos5157]

Use higher watts power with amd

[@atlas1924]

you need to update Bios and remove old drivers Ive had all these problems but a bios update Fixed all of it

[@Helloitsgoku]

which amd card u have and is it actually good for 3d rendering?

[@SalahEddine_A]

We are now 1 year further, is the RX 7900 xt better optimized? for content creation?
