I really liked this benchmark, showing settings of the game before benchmarks is a big plus and overall a very good comparison video of the graphic cards with great commentary. Thank you!
Wow this is exactly the video I've been looking for since I am choosing between 4080s and 7900XTX. It's quite interesting since this is the first video I've seen where AMD shows great performance in RT. All the other 4080 vs XTX vids show Nvidia beating AMD hard in RT and pretty much keeping up with XTX in normal non-RT performance. Great to know that XTX is also performing well.
you have to check the date of the video benchmarks as most benching is done on release date. theres not a lot of benching videos done after 1 year of release for GPUs, which is very important for buying GPU that are old now. Usually AMD GPU gets better performance and beats its Nvidia counterpart. AMD still falls short on RT side as Nvidia has a leg up on them years ahead.
The 7900XTX really does do good at pure raster performance, but using an extra 150w to beat the 4080 is quite a turn off. Then if you flip on RT it sinks to the level of a 70 series. I can simply overclock the 4080 and make up most performance losses in raster while still using 100w less.
Yep, but have a look in the description, these cards are tweeked. The 4080 stays close to the 300w mark if not tweeked as you can see in dozens of UA-cam video.
awesome video. xtx comes in today. upgrading my 2070s which has been a powerhouse for many years now. Will be sad to let it go. but, time for it to rest 😆

Both are $1000 graphics cards, and if you're only gaming a 4070/7800XT are better buys since both of them are currently $550. Between a 4080 and a 7900XTX, despite the XTX having 8GB more VRAM, I'm choosing the 4080 over it just because of the Nvidia features. And at the $1000 price point, in my opinion ray tracing definitely matters.
I have Sapphire nitro + 7900xtx and 7800x3d (CO 34 negative), G skills 32BG cl30/6000mhz (EXPO) and on 1440p Horizon zero down Average: 205 and 1%min 110fps. Why your framerate is much higher?
Had 4090 in april for my birthday, however faulty suprim x heatsink had to go, they refunded me and i didn't get 4090 again, decided not to buy it because of burning connector issue. Stayed on my 3080, however it will be going out because 10gb of vram is not it. Will be getting 7900 xtx for sure after 4080 super arrives, possible that it will drop price even more
Better to wait for 5000 series, 5090 will blow the 4090 in less than 1 year … and not worth to pay 2k for 25% performance you will not even see in nowadays games. I would advise to wait.
@@darkness3038 I decided never to buy a x090 card because I'll be upgrading every 3 years anyway and wouldn't blow that much on a card that expensive that will be replaced anyway.

Then I came across an open box 4080 for 929 euros. I returned the 7900 xtx and bought the 4080. It's more power efficient and I can use it for my rendering jobs. I use software that exploits cuda cores and it has all the best upscaling options and better ray tracing performance.

That's pretty much the only reason i picked the 4080 over the 7900xtx, I play a lot of single player and NVIDIA's ray tracing performance is too good to pass up.@@club4ghz
With the current pricing both cards are bad value. Price adjusted 7900 XT is a better buy, (still far from a good value) but if I would have to choose between the XTX and 4080S, it would be probably XTX. Couldn't care less about raytracing it kills performance, the NIVIDA Control Panel looks like something from Windows XP era and here where I live its like 200 bucks more. In 1440p both upscaling technologies looks decent, NVENC couldn't care less not a streamer. People always jabber about NVIDIA features but unless you specifically need CUDA for some serious work I just don't see what it offers that would serve as a dealbreaker. Power also negligible, if you tune both cards and do not overclock which is pointless anyway for some 5 extra FPS, you get about 80W difference at full load. Let's say full load like gaming 5h/day average, 50 bucks/year in my country, negligible again. Great video
That is exactly why I main the 7900 XTX. Contrary to what I show in these videos, max settings with RT, I love high FPS, and the AMD card tends to do better
7900XTX is now $900 while 4080 Super is $1000. 4080 super is probly on par or very slightly better than 7900XTX but cost more. Its pretty neck and neck at this point.
AMD destroying nVidia & Intel (I am a proud owner of 7800X3D and a bit less proud owner of RTX 4080 also) personally I went nVidia for the software purpose and for major VR performance (as internet says), but now since Adrenaline 23.11 (or 23.12) things start to act really solid on AMD GPUs too
Well, when it comes to software it depends of what you need. I use DaVInci Resolve for video editing, and the 7900 XTX works without an issue. When there is an update for DaVinci resolve, when the app has issues, it does this one both vendors. I can't tell you how many times I had the error that I ran out of video memory, and when I swap to the 4080 I have the same issue. In games, if you like RT the 4080 is the better choice, but 7900 XTX can do RT, it does bad in Nvidia sponsored titles. If you needed the 4080 for the software that you use, don't feel bad, as the choice you made is based on your needs. I'm a QA in my day to day job, and I think that most apps are tested with Nvidia GPUs as they have the biggest market share, and AMD needs to work a lot to make those software work with their cards. Nvidia doesn't need to do much as most software is validated pm their hardware, but can't be 100% sure about this claim.
Kinda unfair to compare in RT games. RT is a rare thing and not really important given how good raster lighting is. AMD would beat it in most games with RT disabled. Nobody uses RT for more than screenshots, unless they are a console bro who loves low fps lol. Even on a 4080 its not smooth enough.
Not really. These are 1000+ euro GPUs and I think RT is the future, but it should not be overlooked. Sure both struggle at 4k, and without upscaling most games will run below 60, but I don't think we should not test games with RT. Besides the 7900XTX does good in RT, only in the games designed for Nvidia GPUs it struggle. In UE5 the performance difference is minor, at best.
I believe its the future too, but rn its a horribly optimized rare alpha state feature with questionable results. There is not enough difference to justify the big performance or price impact. Path tracing looks good but is even less optimized. Maybe in 2 years its a feature worth considering. Thanks for the comparison!
I can imagine, but all GPUs that consume a lot of power will exhaust hot air, add that on top of the CPU, as these days all CPUs are designed to function without issues at close to 90ºC and you will have an oven in your attic. Chose which one is better for your needs, regardless of brand.
This model is quite big, even though it's a budget one. It's by Galax and in Europe it's known as KFA2. With great mass comes good cooling, but, to be honest, it's not needed. You should see the box for it, it can fit a 24" display. This is what I find the most puzzling
bro the 4080 can handle 3ghz clock, turn it up and re run some of these tests.. the clock speed you running is low.. it will run neck and neck if not more..
The 7900 XTX Alan Wake 2 1440p and 4k results are both with FSR set to balanced. Also, the shimmering when it comes to the side by side runs are due to my captur card, it can do 4k@30.

Kinda unfair to compare in RT games. RT is a rare thing and not really important given how good raster lighting is. AMD would beat it in most games with RT disabled. Nobody uses RT for more than screenshots, unless they are a console bro who loves low fps lol. Even on a 4080 its not smooth enough.
Not really. These are 1000+ euro GPUs and I think RT is the future, but it should not be overlooked. Sure both struggle at 4k, and without upscaling most games will run below 60, but I don't think we should not test games with RT. Besides the 7900XTX does good in RT, only in the games designed for Nvidia GPUs it struggle. In UE5 the performance difference is minor, at best.
I believe its the future too, but rn its a horribly optimized rare alpha state feature with questionable results. There is not enough difference to justify the big performance or price impact. Path tracing looks good but is even less optimized. Maybe in 2 years its a feature worth considering. Thanks for the comparison!
100 - 150watt more power consumption for XTX, thats really much. Really more heat in the summer.
True, but it will warm your room in the winter. It depends from angel yo want to look at it.
@@casuallygamin9 yes but for this, i have already a heater in my room. In the summer on my attic its crazy Hot already.
I can imagine, but all GPUs that consume a lot of power will exhaust hot air, add that on top of the CPU, as these days all CPUs are designed to function without issues at close to 90ºC and you will have an oven in your attic. Chose which one is better for your needs, regardless of brand.
What are you talking about? 4090 has 320W tdp and 7900xtx has 355W both reference cards?
@@notimeforspace2477 we talk about 4080, not 4090
Why choose...just get both. For the price of a 4090...you can get both...and one comes awful close to a 4090 in some games.
7900 xtx close to 4090 😂 you wish
The only thing the 7900xtx comes close is power consumption
@@seankillar123 now the 4090 $2000 now power consumption means nothing now it goes down to price
4090 is 2x more expensive, TDP is 95W bigger and is 20-25% faster than 7900xtx. You have be really bad at math if 4090 looks good for you...
@@MacTavish9619 plus getting chance burn up the 4090 if have the Wrong connector plug in
Why tf are Nvidia cards so massive
This model is quite big, even though it's a budget one. It's by Galax and in Europe it's known as KFA2. With great mass comes good cooling, but, to be honest, it's not needed. You should see the box for it, it can fit a 24" display. This is what I find the most puzzling
7900XTX Sapphire Nitro (3.5 slot, basically 4 slot) is massive like 4090...
Rx 7900xtx más de 400watts en 4k !! 😰😰😰
+15 power limit. Mira los detalles en la descripción.
bro the 4080 can handle 3ghz clock, turn it up and re run some of these tests.. the clock speed you running is low.. it will run neck and neck if not more..
ok and now in english please
