      According the MLID, RDNA4 should be around ~50% faster than RDNA3, so the 8900XT should be ~150% faster than the 6900XT. IF the 8800XT is ~80% the performance of the 8900XT then it should be 2x the perf of the 6900XT.
      RDNA4 wont be out until Q2 2024 at the earliest though so the 8800XT probably wont be out for another 2 years.

      Ray Tracing is over hyped and doesn't add much to games with fast combat etc. It may have some uses in RPGs and the like but most of the time you're taking a performance hit for little to no benefit. Then add DLSS 3.0 which is utter crap since it introduces input lag and 4000series just isn't worth the asking price.

    Remember, all these cards are designed to drive 4k native resolution gaming on a monitor, but 4k HDMI 2.1/DP 2.1 monitors are slow in becoming mainstream. Most people don't even need native 4k if you game on a TV 6-12 feet away, millions of people use PS4Pro/PS5 and XSX with upscaled 4k just fine, and upscaling has only gotten better, especially with tech like FSR 2.0/RSR/DLSS2. A 500 dollar used 3080 or 6800XT should be plenty good for a long, long time.
    (Personally I have a pair of high refresh 1080p and 1440p Freesync DP 1.4 monitors hooked up to a 6700XT and adjust graphics to hit 1% lows of 60 fps)

    Good analysis - I'd likely be interested in a 7900xtx when I retire my RTX 2080 Ti card as an upgrade. Can't help but feel that you are being a bit optimistic with ray tracing performance though , I got the impression the 7900xtx might perform similarly to a 3090 , and 7900 being similar to a 3080 , hope you're right though. I was expecting better RT performance with the 7900XTX being 30% down on the 4090 but comfortably faster than the 4080.

      i never expected much more than 30 series + 10-15% in rt for this gen of rdna. anymore than that and rdna 3 would've been even longer to market with the r&d for rt alone. i'll be happy for what we get this gen, more raster and cheaper prices for the cards. nvidia is going to be hurting by middle of next year as they can't go as low on their cards as amd can with this chiplet design.

      It's all educated guesses and speculation at this point without independent reviews. Will be interesting to see the ray tracing improvements AMD have achieved. I know with the RX 6000 and my own 6800XT especially when compared to my 3080Ti is that the performance tends to tank much more when enabling more than one RT effect when compared to the RTX cards.

      Keep in mind these are AMD's numbers. They can't lie, cause if they do, they go to court. But they can be cherry-picked among the games they tested and they could be optimistic as you say. From the announcement, the ray tracing for the XTX looked at least as good as a 3090ti. So that's the range we are dealing with currently. If ray tracing is important, then wait for review day!

That makes oddness for the rest of the stack though, 7800xt and 7700xt both on navi 32 means one of them is going to suck. I got a 6800 for $350, excellent value IMO.

    I have a GTX 1080 on a 144hz 1440p monitor with an overclocked i7-6700K CP. I feel that my PC is old now. I notice the FPS and fps drops in the game. Just the fact that windows no longer support my platform says a lot too. Back in the day, my pc build monitor and M2 SSD for that time was 3000$. Now I feel that I want the same performance and high fps as back in the day. The price of the GPU for a 4090 that about 2500$ in my country. Today like 6-7 years later I think my budget needs to be 5000-6000$ with water cooling. Since none of the blocks I got today is valid haha. At least I will wait until Q2 next year before I order anything.

      There are no guarantees when buying used. I said it in my previous videos.

You can help to minimize the risk when buying used by asking a lot of questions from the buyer, but it is still a risk. Buying one with more than a year of warranty left on it also helps reduce the risk.

I think Radeon would have a feather in it's cap if it could influence the pricing of the 7900XT to stay controlled at between 900 to 1000.

      Nope.
      The 23% difference you see in the graph is using the baseline of the 6950xt/3080ti. In other words, the 7900xtx is 23% faster when compared to the 6950xt/3080ti than then the 4080 is.
      If you are compare 155% to 132% (the 7900xtx to the 4080), you have to make 132% be new baseline. So you do 155%/132% =~1.174, so ~17.4% faster? So if the graph had the 4080 as “100%”, the 7900xtx would be ~117.4%

    The 7900 XT is basically as fast as the 4080 in raster but 20% slower in RT (according to your numbers).
    So you suggest that the RT perf difference worth $150 or in other words NV cards deserve the higher price increase just for the RT perf increase?
    I agree they are both overpriced but the 4080 is way more overpriced and should cost $800, even $899 is too much, inflation accounted.
    6800 XT @ $649 -> 7900 XT (7800 XT renamed) @ $749
    3080 @ $699 -> 4080 @ $799
    Nevertheless the situation is NV 3000 cards were never sold @ MSRP (those were fake MSRP numbers) while AMD cards are way below of their MSRP for some time so you have to pay much more for NV in the same performance tier.
