There is suppose to be no high end RDNA 4 gpu just midrange and below.

I want to see if that rumor about them releasing something that gives 7900XTX performance for less power consumption is going to be true. I'm also wondering if card based on RDNA 3.5 for the highend will be released until RDNA 5 is ready.

And will this RDNA 3.5 card be RDNA 3 that was suppose to launch but ran into some hardware issues.

Yep, if they can basically deliver a 7900 XTX with around 1/2 - 2/3 the power consumption at a $6oo ish pricepoint, that should sell pretty well. Well at least to people that aren't vehemently anti AMD or are influenced by people that are, even though they've likely never actually used an AMD card themselves.

I want to see AMD put 24GB+ VRAM on a $500 card, specifically to screw with people buying a 4090 for AI. Even if it had 1/3 the performance it would be disruptive, and fun.

If AMD still put old power connector on these new graphics card
will have lots of potential buyers

Top RDNA4 card might not match 7900 XTX in raster, but maybe raytracing will be a different story. But it should have a much lower price and power consumption.

I don't think we'll see RDNA3.5 outside of the Strix APU family. Maybe Zen 5 desktop I/O die IF they bother updating it.

RDNA4 should have up to 16 GB, but it would be fun to see a 32 GB halo option for AI and extreme VRAM future proofing.

I figure we'll find out soon enough, the last time they took this approach we wound up with the RX 5700 series. The 5700 series was faster than the vega series, cheaper, used 2/3 as much power, and had the same amount of vram. I guess we'll see what it looks like in the coming months. Also can't forget the hd 3000 and 4000 series that were similar in concept.

8800 XT will be 7900 XTX for $500, I'm calling it. Launch Q3

 

[KraakBal]

Most likely APUs man. Not disctrete cards

Like that? xD

From what I have seen that is about right, the RT will be better, and they also going for lower power usage again.
8000 series might not be overly exciting but who knows. 9000 series looks more promising.

Hah yep, unfortunately I've had that exact conversation, sometimes they'll buy a used 2070 or 2080, which I guess I isn't the worst idea. Except for the fact that a new RX 6600 (50\xt) still would have provided similar ray tracing performance, given them a warranty, been quieter, cooler, and more efficient. I really don't understand the whole never AMD mentality.
