Where Gaming Begins - AMD RX6000 series Live Event

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

579$ for that ? 3070 is 499 that performs 10% better than 2080ti and 100% in productivity lol, what's stopping ppl from spending 200 more for 3080? 

also why in heaven's did they compare it to last gen GPU? atleast compare it ti 3070/3080

For now I have no context how it'll work other than they said it was inspired by Ryzen L3. Is this shared or per-core? What's the data flow?

It's shared across all CUs is my understanding.

RX 6800:

Performance (according to AMD) - 18% higher performance than the 2080 Ti on average

Price - $579

I was wondering about this one, where does it fit? I think it'll come in above 3070 in performance, hence the nominally higher price. Not an easy comparison but there's a bigger gap in raw potential performance between 3070 and 3080, than 5800 and 5800XT.

3070 isn't out yet.

I suspect they couldn't get a 3070 card in time for recording the presentation.

 

3070 isn't on sale yet so AMD couldn't get one.

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

its funny they use 3080 for power consumption but a 2080ti for benchmarks?

They did compare it with a 3080. They probably couldn't get a 3070 in time for the announcement.

AMD is undercutting NVIDIA hard with their new RX 6900XT. 500$ less for similar performance to the 3090. I'm wondering how long it will take for nvidia to cut their prices or spit up a bunch of super variants of their cards

They compared the 6800XT to 3080, 6900XT to 3090, and 6800 to 2080ti since the 3070 isn't out yet.

So what's the (likely) recommended PSU wattage?

I'd think it'll work best if it was a unified shared cache, but I don't want to assume. Worst would be lots of cores each having their own private caches. Given they compared it to Ryzen L3, it would make more sense for the 1st scenario.

 

Random: I'm about to list a system for sale with an i5-5675C in it. Why bring that up in an AMD GPU thread? That Intel CPU had 128MB of L4 cache primarily to improve iGPU performance! Bandwidth is now very different, but I've long wondered if we'll see something like that again.

[Derkoli]

Might go full AMD for the next build?

 

Fun times. Thank god AMD has some decent competition in the GPU market now.

Linus said in the most recent video that the 6900XT would run with a 650 Watt PSU.

[Prodigy_Smit]

AHHHHHHHHHHH, THEY LAUNCHED THE 69nice00xt. LETS GOO.

 

[Techicolors]

i noticed that the benchmarks were ran with the smart memory feature.. that might affect numbers if you went intel or older AMD CPU 

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

mistakes were made delete DIS

The GPU is different. The 6800 and the 6800XT is a different class of GPU.

[Yun4xGaming]

Disappointed that there's no DLSS equivalent

[HenrySalayne]

Nvidia definitely won

Spoiler

the "best looking graphics card of 2020" award. 3080 FE and 3090 FE are real beauties. But I wouldn't be too sure about the rest.

It's a bit more complicated than that. For the few people out there that really need it, the extra VRAM of the 3090 might still swing it regardless. 

 

What nvidia has to do now is decide how their next Ampere offerings will stack up. I still think what I will call a 3085 is a fair bet. A bit more perf than a 3080, but still not quite as much as a 3090, but with the beefed up VRAM to market against AMD. By sitting in between it'll make direct comparisons more difficult, so people will still have to compare up and down.

 

As an additional thought, anyone care to go through the games used by AMD. Were any of those historically "nvidia leaning" or "AMD leaning"? Are there titles NOT on the list that could be more interesting to look out for?

That's better than the 320W and 350W TDP the 3080 and 3090 have

yeah ik that emoji is used in a good context

I meant the 6800xt 

 

Also do we have slides for the 6800?

 

Totally missed it and only info I'm finding rn is 6800xt

AMD "super resolution" might be it.

For the bottom photo, the gray show the 3080 performance, red for 6800xt. The power consumption next to the card name was to emphasize that the 6800XT uses less power and has about the same performance.

Yet here you are comparing the 6800 and the 6800XT slides

Think youre the one full of bollocks here friend.
