Discussion Nvidia Blackwell in Q1-2025

I'd assuming some dream perf? 5060 = 7800XT? 5070 = 7900XTX? 🤡

Could be just looking at some ideal RT benchmark. The 5070 has 80% of the shaders a 4070 Ti does, it's unlikely to perform as well based on what we've seen so far. Those also group the 7900XTX with the 4070 Ti instead of the 4070 Ti Super or 4080 though, so it's obviously not grouping strictly by raster performance.

7800XT same as 5060 and 5060ti?

IIRC the memory needs to be benchmarked at every step, the error corrections leads people to believe it is stable at way higher speeds than it actually is.

The memory the 5090 is set to is 28Gbps, but the chips are rated for up to 32Gbps. A +2000 in AB gets it to 32Gbps. I haven't seen anyone not get that speed.

Memory bandwidth is a massive overkill for that GPU's default core clocks, though.

Well, the 7800XT is only about 70% faster than a 4060, so with Nvidia math it makes sense the 5060 will be in the same class.
