    RDNA3 doubles the compute throughput per CU, but the shader code have to be either compiled or manually set properly to take full advantage of the double wide vector ALUs. The straightforward way is to set the batch execution mode to wave64. Some games and apps default to single wave32 mode that leaves half of the compute resources underutilized. The most efficient execution mode for RDNA3 is dual-issue wave32, but it requires manual tuning of the code and still imposes some hardware restrictions. AMD made a lot of compromises with RDNA3 simply to get maximum performance out of as little silicon space as possible, resulting in more or less an iterative generational upgrade. This is pretty much evident in the RT benchmarks -- very little targeted investment for accelerating RT performance, where the little improvements come mostly from brute force upgrades: more and faster cache and CUs. The situation with AI inference acceleration is a bit better, but software support is still lacking in this department. RDNA3 definitely works harder, but not very smarter.

    • @AncientGameplays
      @AncientGameplays  Місяць тому +2

      Exactly, that's why newer engines are working better with these cards. As for the shaders the engine needs to be ready or they need to "manually" set them/force them via drivers

Guess what? With same exact frequency, the end performance results are dead same. Pascal is generally a overclocked Maxwell plus.

    yes, fabio, you absolutely need to decouple gpu from mobo and measure the pcie power draw plus the power connector power draw explicitly. then you may compare fps per watt.
    igorslab is nicely doing that with all the gpus.
    6950xt ist just way too power hungry.
    power efficiency of rdna3 7900 xt and xtx improved quite well compared to rdna2.

      on RDNA you give it the maximum clock it must reach and the card will then decide whether to reach it depending on the TDP, temperature and GPU load.
      but if you set a relatively low clock where neither temperature, load nor TDP limits are reached, the GPU will remain constant at the clock you set.
      if instead you set 3 ghz, logically if one of the limitations indicated above occurs the card will not constantly reach that clock.

    I am so torn.. do i complain about the inaccuracy of this comparison considering that the 6950 xt has double the cache? Or do i just accept it as impressive that the new architecture does more with less? I am curious how much difference would we get if amd ended up putting vcache on those memory modules like was leaked that 7000 was designed to use. Perhaps Last Epoch is a representation of the performance difference we could have had with extra cache. I imagine the xtx might not benefit from the cache as much because it already has a lot of cache and massive bandwidth so perhaps thats why they didnt do it. It would have been interesting to have the power draw as well to compare efficiency of architecture. Very interesting video as always Fabio. Great work!

Now with the same settings uv,oc and fan control it doesn't go over 70. If you have 0 rpm on your fans disable it. I'd suggest watch fabio's video on how to undervolt and overclock rx6800.

Especially when watching UA-cam or other desktop work the RDNA3 cards are not efficient. You have more undervolt options for RDNA2 aswel. I hope. RDNA4 will fix the under utilization of the double alu shader units. Something is clearly not working ad intended.

      @@AncientGameplays He asked if when doing, say, the 13 game average results at 9:21 , did you use the arithmetic mean or geometric mean to compute the average FPS ?
      Aritmetic mean is just you sum all of them and then divide by the number of elements. So, 10, 15 and 20, the arithmetic mean is (10 + 15 + 20) / 3 = 45 / 3 = 15
      Geometric mean - you multiply all items then do the n-th root of the result, where n is the number of elements. So, for 10, 15 and 20, the geometric mean is cubic_root(10 x 15 x 20) = cubic_root (3000) = 14.42
      The geometric mean seems to be more fair when the items / values vary highly. Because if you have 10 games, so 10 values, and 9 of them are around 60 FPS, and one of them (say, Rainbox 6 Siege or Valorant or ... Quake 2) is around 800, then, when using the arithmetic mean, the 800 FPS game will influence the average result more than the other 9 games will. I mean, I can actually give you the numbers: the arithmetic mean of what I said above is 134 and the geometric mean is 77.74
      And I can give an example of being more fair. Let's say that in the above example, one card is the same 60 FPS for 9 titles, but 600 FPS for the 10th one.
      And the other card is 30 FPS for 9 titles, but 900 FPS for the 10th one.
      Arithmetic mean for the first card: 114 FPS. For the second card: 117 FPS. They seem very similar when using the arithmetic mean
      Geometric mean for the first card: 75.53 FPS. For the second card: 42.15 FPS. Here it shows that the second card is, on average, worse. Since it had -50% FPS on 9 titles and only in one title it had +50% FPS. But it happened that the title in which it did well had very high FPS.
      Hope this makes sense.

    I didn't paid 100% attention on the video, but it seems that the memory speed was glossed over. RDNA 3 cards, some of them also have higher speed memory.
    RX 7900GRE - 18 Gbps per pin vs RX 6950 XT - also 18 Gbps per pin, so here they're equal. And with the same 256 bit width, that means the same memory bandwidth
    RX 7800 XT - 19.5 Gbps per pin (yes, more than 7900GRE) vs RX 6800 - 16 Gbps per pin. Hereo RX 7800 XT is 20% faster. Ah, crap, it was mentioned at 16:49 . Never mind
    Also, LoL at the real life loading screen tips :))

      Nah, the memory speed was far from glossed over. In a matter of fact, I talked about it before every test and sometimes in the middle of them (charts). You need to pay more attention haha.
      I know you noticed at 16:49, but I did state them more times haha

    Yeah, i didn't upgrade from my 6700XT yet. 12Gb is fine, performance is OKish with upscalling in quality mode, the performance jump didn't make me upgrade this generation. Yeah i could go for a 7800XT or 7900GRE in my price budget, but honestly, i can still play with my 6700XT so... no. Perhaps next generation.

      I'm thinking of going to a 7900 gre from 6700xt soon, mainly for me I want high refresh 1440p experience, the 6700xt is capable for 1440p but not for high refresh. I kinda wanna wait for 8000 series but thats maybe 5-10 months away, not worth it for me

      Upgrade when you need too. Example I kept playing games on my gtx 1080 for long time. Since gpu were insanely priced I bought 5900x from 1700x. I got extra 30 fps and ultra settings instead of medium. I upgraded to 7900 xtx at launch. I am thinking about upgrading to ryzen 9000 with 3d cache. They have miners that use cpu that will pay for itself in 4 to 6 months. If you don't need to upgrade just wait. I knew I needed to when spiderman was dipping in 50s and low 40s. I was wanting to play darktide and hogwarts legacy. Hogwarts legacy was a better game with the amazing performance. Always upgrade if it will affect your experience and if you can afford it. There are fun games that don't require much to play. I am enjoying batman akrham knight on steam deck. Runs great and getting to play it while I am working.

      Coming from a 6700XT for me only the 7900xtx was a worthy upgrade. Everything below wouldnt feel justified in terms of performance uplift. The 6700XT still performs well with upscalers in new AAA titles. And if u dont play those, even better..Solid card.
