Is the RX 7900 XTX the Best Bang for the Buck AMD Card?!

Let's get started with AMD. Yesterday, the company lifted the embargo on a huge presentation that details their RX 7900 series of GPUs. It talks about their engineering philosophy, the upcoming FSR 2.2, and they even compare them to the RTX 4080… which isn't out at the making of this video. It's coming out tomorrow though. Specifically, they focused on things that Nvidia kind of fumbled on. Things like how the 4080 is still rocking the good old Displayport 1.4a while AMD’s GPUs are on the newer better DP 2.1. Seriously though on a side note, that was pretty stupid from Nvidia in my opinion, but they also brought up how their GPUs are still rocking a USB C port, and how much more Vram they have, thought to be fair Sneaky AMD, GDDR6, is not GDDR6X which is what Nvidia uses, and it should be mentioned here since it has WAY higher bandwidth.

Anyways, that’s not why you’re here, AMD also shared some slides with some juicy, benchmarks. Not against the 4080, obviously, but comparing their new lineup, to the old lineup. And something pretty interesting popped up here. Let's take a look. Now obviously, these are cherry-picked benchmarks from AMD but since they’re comparing their own GPU's to the last gen, it's still partially valid. Anyways, we’d have to wait a month before we get actual performance numbers, so I thought I'd have some fun with these here.

So! Rasterized performance at 4k max settings. We have 4 benchmarks here, Resident Evil 8, COD modern warfare 2, cyberpunk, and watch dog: legion. From left to right compared to the best of the last generation, the RX 7900 XT has a boost of 26%, and the XTX dwarfs this with an increase of 53% over the last gen. Pretty big move.
