      AMD's bread and butter in the GPU market is that their cards have a good value proposition. Adding HBM or, to a lesser extent, GDDR6 won't raise the cards' performance enough to justify the higher prices of faster memory. AMD is a large corporation. I'm certain they had accountants run the numbers on different memory setups before they committed to the 5700XT that we have today.

    • @piotrj333
      @piotrj333 5 років тому +6

  • @MooresLawIsDead
    @MooresLawIsDead 5 років тому +170

    This really points to a bandwidth bottleneck (as usual with all AMD GPU's). Oh, and those 1% low drops with memory overclocking are likely from the timings auto-loosening when memory is overclocked (Vega and Polaris did this too). Additionally, it seems abundantly clear to me that Navi needs more mature drivers... Not trying to trigger those ridiculous "fine wine" BS memes though :).

      I would like to know if there is any possibility to tweak memory timing settings on this card, or any other graphics card for that matter. Is there some bios that can be tweaked or something like that? Perhaps the timings are pretty perfect already, in case of GDDR6 or HMB there isn't that much silicon lottery and no reason to not allow all the possible bandwidth and lowest latency possible. Though still it would be nice topic for a video to try to tweak those settings.

      @@gabrielst527 Based on this review, if 20% higher clocks give average 7% increase, then it's clearly have bottleneck somewhere and that GDDR6 memory is the only thing I could think of.
      So going from 20% to 30% increase in clocks really would have only minor improvements, most likely going from 7% to 9% increase. Though it's possible that silicon lottery might apply to GDDR6 memory and with better clocks and timings it could really have significant impact. However I don't have enough knowledge on that.

      Due to the sunken cost fallacy/stockholm syndrome, which is exactly why the publisher's want you to preorder their games, so they can make as much money of ya, for the least amount of effort. And no, it's not EA that started this trend, it was actully Ubisoft.

      If you start a new game today, it absolutely makes the most sense to start with Vulkan and/or Dx12. However games launching this year started at least 3-5 years ago when it was a lot more sketchy. This is worse when you look at games that are already a few years old and launched before Vulkan 1.0 was even released.

    Looks like AMD did a reasonable job cinching the card high but not stupid high. The card is fast and energy efficient at stock.
    Undervolting and slight overclocks might be a way to keep power in check and axial fans can keep the temperature in check.

    • @deksroning125
      @deksroning125 5 років тому

      Nah... just undervolt it and allow the max. boost clocks to be sustained for as long as they are needed.
      You will probably get a performance uplift like this (around 5%), while removing the thermal limits and dropping power consumption at the same time.
      Its more reliable.

    The 5700 XT has surprisingly lived up to the hype. It offers about the same value per dollar (arguably better value per dollar) than the 5700, and runs roughly as fast as a 1080 ti for 400 US. This actually exceeded my expectations. AMD scared us with those initial price announcements, and the 5700 was a little bit disappointing imo, but the 5700 XT has turned out to be a quite pleasant surprise, performing better than expected, and at a very competitive price which is making most other cards out there look pretty stupid at current pricing.
    I guess we'll soon find out how good the board partner cards are. Hopefully there will be some good ones for roughly MSRP.

      NVidia drivers optimize by cutting corners, lowering quality and faking it into the end. I'm really amazed how little this subject is discussed and how silent the community is. Stockholm syndrome by Nvidia? Many people say "whatever man, its more FPS", then just lower your settings from ultra to medium when you play with AMD and voi'la.
      Why there is so little image quality testing? When clearly people are paying literally tons of money to get the ultra settings run in enough FPS? Nvidia seems to be the most advanced and successful marketing company in existence.
      I like many technologies that Nvidia has developed, but I hate the company and it's policies and greed.

      It's not optimized for AMD hardware, it's optimized for ALL hardware, check that numbers, 130+ fps on 1440p with everything maxed is very good for a modern game.
      Same as World war Z and all Vulkan games that have a good implementation (oddly enough, even bad Vulkan implementations still give a good 6-12 fps boost)
      Consumers need to wake up and start asking for it in game forums.

      Kind of, but I don't think that's exactly true either. For someone that's already invested in a custom loop, they already have everything but the card and the block. Or for someone buying all that stuff for the first time, they can re-use everything but the card and the block moving forward.
      Either way I agree that it isn't really the most cost effective solution, but it does give an idea of the peak performance this card can achieve when not thermally limited.

    Interesting thoughts on the memory holding it back. I’ve had extremely good luck on overclocking the vram on my card. I got it up to 950MHz rock solid and saw significant performance gains. I might even be able to go higher but that’s as far as wattman allows. I haven’t gotten around to doing any significant overclock on the core clock though. Using a Strix 5700XT on with EK block. Core is 1985MHz, vram is 1900 (950MHz), with a +50% power limit and a undervolt to 1.149v

      Have a gaming X and used the RBE and PPT to allow me to go up to 2100 on the memory. From 1800 - 1900 on the default MSI slider, its never really stable and will eventually crash in games. It would crash at various points from 1900 - 2000 then after that hits looser timings and is stable through benches. Just playing about in timespy I had it completing with no artefacts with the memory at 2010. Was getting into the mid 70's on memory temps though. Maybe on water you'll have better luck.
