PSSR confirmed to be a partly shared tech. Wonder how that phone/Samsung partnership for FSR is going to turn out too.
It's strange, after years of dark limbo with RDNA 3, it's like a long-awaited birthday party finally comes our way.
How the heck is AV1 worse?
That's a twist I didn't expect. Hopefully it's just a driver issue, I remember my AV1 encoder kept dropping frames at 4K on the 7900 XT, after some months it got entirely fixed and I went from constant stutters to absolutely fine, just 90% usage of the media encoder...
Ok first it's not doubling the price just for 32Go of GDDR7.
And adding $200 to make it a $800 base price with GDDR7 is definitely doable. Probably even $300 to make it $900. No clue how difficult it would be to implement GDDR7 for them.
Random thought: I think the power efficiency on the cards tells a lot as to why AMD gave up on the high end. If one 9070 XT is barely able to get close to a 4080, I doubt that chiplets stacked together into 120 CUs would have done great.
Well, we'll see...I just am shocked to hear 20% differential after entire generations of tiny increments. 20% better takes their poor stuff up to NV level.
No the h264 encoders in RDNA have always been butt, while Xilinx clearly had far better stuff for their Alveo transcoders. I was hoping that RDNA 4 would start implementing the Xilinx ones instead of the very poor AMD ones, I'm curious if that's the case.
I wonder if their improved h264 encoder is from Xilinx. It should be about the right time to switch IPs, 20% improvement is pretty massive, and AMD never was good h264. I tried streaming on Twitch with my 7900 XT and the quality is about on par with a Pascal or Turing era GPU. AV1 is excellent...
I felt they did well this generation, typically it's more CringeEngine
what's bad about it? My expectation from forever ago was RT at the level of a 4070 Ti with clearly better raster. If we get 4070 Ti Super RT and ~10%> 7900 XT raster, it's a literal 1440p bomb. Weak at 4K, but seriously...
