Hardware wise they are fantastic but their software side has stunk since it was ATI. My friend lost his 3090 and he could not bring himself to buy a 4090 to replace it. He did training of AI models, and Stable Diffusion. I got him to get the best 7900XTX out there (my favourite brand for AMD) the Sapphire Nitro+. He loved the card and so much cooler, and faster, than his 3090. Told him. YAY, but not so fast once you leave the gaming world because the main things he used the 3090 for just flat out don't work, is wonky, or never (yet) implement. ROCm, and attention, is the main downfalls to AMD for AI stuff NOT the hardware. Throw in the fact Python people are so Nvidia (to the point I speculate paid off) that if for AI we are stuck, for now, with Nvidia. My hope lies with Intel come Druid, or Celestial.

I'm using a 7800X3D + 7900 XTX system and it is perfectly stable. I'm also blown away by the performance coming from a 5600x 6600 XT

Nvidia "shill" chiming in. After my 4090 had an issue so I had to RMA, I bought 7900xtx from Asrock (Taichi) and I have crashes in every game, stutters in every game that could not be fixed with any optimization tips on youtube and reddit, overheating hotspot of 105 C just while gaming, 450 watt draw (while my 4090 pulls 420 max if it is 100% utilized, but 4090 actually draws around 300-350 watts in almost all scenarios, because it's too powerful for any CPU right now). I don't have crashed with 4090, never did since I bought it. Drivers are beyond solid. Let me think what else on AMD side....driver timeouts. After crash to desktop. So, yeah, don't let this "shill" stop you from buying AMD card. Just pray you won't have at least 2 of my issues Stutters are present even in Unigine Heaven, and Asrock is a solid company. So much for hoping AMD can get their act together after 10 years I've been with NVIDIA since Radeon 7950 HD (2013) Oh, and don't forget the infamous AMDip in frames, as Frame Chasers channel puts it.

The issue you mention at 18:50 has a basic explanation. One (darker) has full legal colors (0-255) and the other one is limited (16-235). It's an ancient safety feature for old TVs that can't show full colors or incompatible with them and crush all the blacks. Try checking control panels of your GPUs for this setting or make sure you check ''legalize'' option in Atomos Ninja recorder menus.

I think this actually has to do with a color profile being applied in borderless windowed mode vs fullscreen mode. The difference between the two images isn't _just_ in the two extremes, but an overall saturation difference even on colors between 16 and 235. This is most likely an incorrect sRGB vs DCI P3 color profile setting.

One thing i think AMD need to try. Release a monster card better than 4090 or 4090ti. They can do it, even if it will cost +2k and 600w power. This is needed because of "perception". KZreadrs when benchmarking always use the best GPU to not be bottlenecked, so constantly using Nvidia, than they are indirectly marketing it, and Nvidia knows this , thats why they always release a monster GPU for perception and mindshare. AMD cannot beat Nvidia like it beated Intel with a Ryzen moment. They really need to compete neck to neck in Ray Tracing, and then launch a killer GPU.

Prices vary so much from week-to-week and month-to-month, and I still need to get a few other bits to finish the build. Looking at the games I play and my current setup - my little 1660 ti is doing a cracking job, but going forward I was falling toward AMD, and your video gives such a clear compelling argument for me to stick to that choice. I don't play many AAA titles - especially at launch, I can't use ray tracing yet (current GPU doesn't really support it) and probably won't bother, I don't game at 4K or 1440p (although that may change if my monitor gets a refresh too) and I don't do video or image editing.

The color difference seems just like a calibration issue to me, I never noticed any differences between AMD and nVidia per se, but each graphics card change of course requires a new monitor calibration, or if you're not into that, needs different ICC profile adjustments, often even between GPUs from the same brand, and of course readjusting the gamma in games. One thing though, as someone also mentioned there's a "custom color" option in Adrenaline (maybe nVidia has an equivalent to that too), as someone using a Spyder for calibration I make sure everything there is disabled completely.

You have to set the full dynamic range on nvidia every time in control panel. Idk why it defaults to half. But i did notice inferior rendering on nvidia. LIkely due to the too high memory compression. Theres just not enough data anymore with those pathetically low vram bus width sizes.

Randomly got here by a KZread video suggestion. Really nice video and honestly, I'm happy for everyone pointing out that you don't have to have Popular Brand XZY just because there's some horror stories out there. You got my sub and I'm looking forward to followup videos. Also you have a very pleasant voice to listen to! I personally switched to AMD mid last year when they discounted the 6000 series cards. Got a 6900 XT back then, now also got a 7900 XTX in my main system (and an Arc A770 LE and RTX 3090 in my guest PC and HTPC respectively, my hardware is generally playing merry-go-round my systems as I upgrade until I really have no use for them anymore) and I couldn't be happier with them. The 6900 XT initially had a lot of crashes but that wasn't the driver or anything, it was a genuinely defective card that got replaced by Sapphire within a few weeks. That pretty much is the only negative thing that I had happen to me so far on the modern cards. Last AMD card I had before these was an RX 560 and I got that instead of a theoretically stronger GTX 1050 Ti which was giving me graphics issues due to engine issues with Pascal cards in Ragnarok Online (which is still my daily routine game to this day) so technically, I've been better off with AMD than Nvidia for a long time at this point.

This was extremely detailed, thanks! New sub

Before you start a game go into tuning and set the GPU to AMDs undervolt stock settings you should increase the performance while using less energy.

I'd wanted to try AMD for a while and finally took the plunge after I watched Gamers Nexus AMD tour. I got a real sense of "home brew" about the company, and I liked that. And if anything I now own has been in some way been engineered by Bill Alverson or Amit Mehra, I feel blessed.

Awesome content. I can imagine you spent a lot of time producing it. Thanks. Looking forward to more tests. Something that could be interesting to test AMFM and maybe compare it between RDNA2 and 3 if there are any differences.

The last AMD card I had was many years. The XFX Radeon HD 6970. I've had two Nvidia cards since. The 970 and 2070 Super. Both were good cards. Just recently bought a 7900 XTX. So far so good. Very strong card.

I bought the 6950XT last week and it surprised me with how good it was.

I made the switch years ago because I got sick of my nvidia GPUs dying on me due to drivers. That was back when Nvidia's drivers kept killing the GTX 400/500 GPUs. I switched to the 290x and stayed with AMD since. I would rather have a GPU that runs slower than the competitions but isn't killed due to planned obsolescence. The way I kept my GTX 560 ti from dying was rolling back to older drivers because anything newer than a certain point cause them to run so hot they would cook themselves and that is how my GTX 460 died.

Any recommendations for a very good Freesync monitor? My old one from 2016 only supports G-Sync.

I built a brand new PC about 4 months ago and went with a 6900 XT. My last PC had a 760 TI in it (laughs), and I wanted to build something for under 3k CAD, GPU choice being the toughest. It all came down to RT vs more GPU memory for the price and in some blind tests I actually preferred non-RT options in the samples I viewed, so I wound up deciding on a 6800 XT for my budget. Luckily, when actually pricing parts I found a brand new 6900 XT on Ebay, cheaper than any retailer by 100 CAD, so that's what I went with. So far I'm super happy with it and I figure it will keep me happy with 1440p gaming for a few years to come (fingers crossed). BTW, my monitor wouldn't shut off sometimes depending on the driver release. This happened with 2 or 3 of the Adrenaline drivers that I've used since the build.

It's good seeing it because more and more AMD is being seen as the better option in terms of price but often lacking in anything other than gaming performance. If that's no longer the case, NVIDIA will have no other option than to lower their prices drastically and not give us the bare minimum hardware wise or face giving up a large chunk of their market share.

I've been doing that on my 6700 XT lately. AI that is, specifically running LLM's on Linux. It definitely took _a lot_ more setting up and figuring out than it would have on an Nvidia card, but once you get Rocm working on Linux the performance I think is not bad. I am running q3 13b models with 6k context at somewhere between 5-9 token/s now. Still, it's not the best but I could see the case being made to go for a 7900 XTX to get that 24gb at considerably less cost than a 4090. Though a 3090 may still do you better if you could get that cheap. Biggest issue with AMD really isn't hardware, it's software compatibility. If you can get rocm to work properly, it works well, but that's a big if sometimes. I couldn't get it to work on Windows at all and wound up needing to dual boot linux.

I have been thinking the same thing for my next card pulling the trigger soon. ( Alan wake 2 ) My problems with NVIDIA has mainly been dual screen and gaming. I have a few games that crash if the second monitor is on.

Were you open or closed case reaching 77c on your CPUs? I recognize it was a benchmark, but unlike other people, I would be worried after a couple hours of gaming I'd be reaching thermal throttling thresholds and I didn't see the thermal differences other than what I extrapolated from the video. The whole TDP package can be a determining factor for people in small office spaces or anal about thermals in general. Maybe you didn't say anything because they were so similar? My peak CPU temps are about 75-80c while loading up a game and 66-70c while gaming (AIO).

Such a great video! I love these types of deep dives into the pros and cons of each manufacturer. I recently switched to a 7800XT myself and have been having a good experience so far as well.

I'm running a 7900xtx and I was pretty down on raytracing but in cyberpunk 2077 I get an absurd amount of trailing / ghosting due to how the baked-in TXAA and screen-space reflections interact; for me, it made the game unplayable (aside from just being annoying and distracting, it was physically nauseating at times). My solution to this was to use mods to disable TXAA and screenspace reflections, use reshade to add on a post-fx AA (not ideal but takes the bright edges off jaggies), and use raytracing for reflections. It's not perfect but it's a lot better, and I've began to care a lot more about raytracing. With fine tweaked settings and raytraced reflections, I'm getting about ~40fps in busy scenes with impressive visual details. While AMD may not be optimal, it's still competent at raytracing.

My first pc was equipped with a 1060 6g. From there it has been team Red. Next card was Vega 64 then 5700xt and now the 7900xtx. All cards from sapphire and all are Nitro plus version. They are very well made cards and have given me great gaming experiences for way less money.

I still play the Batman Arkham games and can't find any info on if they can run the PhysX effects like Fog/Debris, Rain and interactive cloth/paper the same way that Nvidia does.

What really surprises me are the color differences and the hugely higher power draw on the 7800 XT. I would have assumed those are just different settings with less contrast and less saturation... Also, I don't get how it's running at over 70W in idle. I was looking into the 7800 XT and I happened to run with AMD since almost forever.

Last July during the Amazon Prime Day Sale I ordered a bunch of parts to build a new machine. I re-used the case from my then current desktop, got the Micro Center exclusive AMD Ryzen 5 5600X3D CPU, an MSI X570S Edge Max Wifi MB, a 1TB Samsung 980 Pro 4 GEN SSD for the boot drive, a 4TB MSI Spatium M4614 GEN SSD for the data drive, 32GB RAM, and I topped it off with the XFX SWFT 319 AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT 16GB GPU. This thing ROCKS!!!! I spent a grand total of around $1500 U.S., and couldn't be happier. It runs what I want it to run with only a few exceptions. I did put WIN11 on it, so there are some games that are not running. But I held onto my old computer transplanting it into another case I had laying around for when I want to run those things that are too old to run on the new machine. I agree, there is no reason to choose an Nvidia card these days. AMD is cheaper and just as good. I love this new machine, but I will be honest, I'm possibly building another new machine by summer... but only because I'm coming into a decent inheritance!!! I'm hoping that AM5 will have some of it's bugs worked out and prices will have dropped giving me the impetus to build an even more advanced machine than this one. I've looked at MBs and I'd want one with at least 4 GEN 5 M.2 slots. There aren't a lot of those out there. They're either all GEN 4 or lower, or one 5 and a 4, or a 5 and multiple 4's. I've only seen one or 2 that were all GEN 5 (a minimum of 3 slots) and as I recall they were a bit pricey. I think one was $699. Maybe, but then again... maybe not. In short, welcome to the AMD club. Coffee and tea will be served.

I had the RX 470 myself at one point! Sapphire Tech too. In fact I’m actually building my first All AMD build this time. Ryzen 7 7800x3D paired with a Sapphire Tech Nitro+ RX 7900 XTX.

When I was building my rig, Intel was just getting on the scene and I bought the Acer A770 out of curiosity, but I was still intent on a Red Devil 7900XTX. So, I got two GPUs, one a lovely curiosity piece and still saved $200+ not buying a 4090. Interestingly it looks like AMD handles HDR better than Nvidia.

I run Nvidia at the moment (3080) and Nvidias drivers have been absolute crap on Many games in my time owning it (bought one when it was a fresh release). AMDs software is WAY more refined. If AMD hits the nail on the head with FSR 3.0 and can actually produce a 4090 competitor then I'll make that switch.

I use a PowerColor Red Devil 6950XT and have had a few hiccups here and there - mostly with brand new games for which the issues were typically resolved rather quickly with driver updates. May spring for team green on the next build. For science purposes, of course

The fullscreen fix for the fps cap also happens to me in overwatch. it caps at your monitors refresh rate even with vsync and frame rate cap disabled which is extremely weird

Ray Tracing is so over rated. I'm glad you said it. I've been playing Alan Wake 2 on my 7900 XTX. When I turn on RT the performance tanks. This would happen on Nvidia as well. I see no significant improvement in graphics with RT. To improve my frame rate I turn on FSR. The game is then playable, but looks significantly downgraded. I have seen some comparisons and it does seem like DLSS is slightly better looking, but to my eye, nothing is currently better than native resolution with raster graphics. I've had no major driver issues. I truly cannot see why anyone would prefer RT on with DLSS even for single player games. Maybe after 5 years from now when games can be played with better versions of RT at high res, I'll look for the best RT card. Currently, I am all raster at full resolution.

Frame generation is a game changer, AMD must do this to stay in the game.

In Australia the 4070ti midrange is priced to compete against the 7900xtx at ~$1500AUD.

I grabbed a lightly used 6800xt earlier this year for $575 CAD. Until then i was considering a 3080 from a friend, used for mining. He wouldn't budge from $1000. AMD hasn't let me down once.

Nvidia is still faster in blender. The thing that's holding the nvidia cards back is the small 192-bit bus. In that price range. Though they make great 1080p cards even with path tracing. There isn't much that I have fomo for with amd cards. For what I do with nvidia cards. Amd still don't have enough support for what I do. That amd feature I was excited about is useless now unless maybe its single player. No anti-lag buddy.That was the only reason I would consider to use amd with multiplayer games. Frame gen single player too. Unless its implemented into multiplayer games. Why not. It should be you want it you got. Don't care what brand. Ray tracing. I run ray tracing on mid range current cards. I have a 4070. Still run ray tracing. But at 1080p. Still get good frames. What you want blu ray quality or 4k ultra blu ray. That's the way I see it. The argument for 1440p is questionable. Especially for entry level cards between $200 to $500. I would barely consider a 7800 xt a mid range card. Same with both the 4070 cards. I would consider a rtx 4080 a solid 1440p card. Same with the 7900xt. Both entry level 4k at this point. As always even with the highest end cards. Those would be the 1440p kings. And decent 4k cards. Otherwise upscaling all the time. To pretend the 7800 xt is amazing 1440p card as well with the 4070 non ti or ti. I saw one guy say that the Alan Wake is a bloated game at just about 1440p no upscaling with a 7900xt. Max settings no ray tracing. He demanded 120fps in that game. I would agree that Amd still has better color range then nvidia. Ray tracing is playable with the newest cards pared with the newest games. At lower then expected resolutions. It always was that way. SInce Ray tracing was hitting the main stream with the 20 series nvidia cards. With a fair level of upscaling. People have weird expectations with gpus in general. Is amd a better value then nvidia yes and no. That's my opinion. I would still use nvidia because its better with heavier ray tracing and better in blender still. Though again the bus width really dictates what resolution is good those mid range gpus. You have to be more aggressive with dlss at 1440p. That's both the 4070s just because of the bus width. With performance DLSS. I can achieve similar results at 1440p on a regular rtx 4070 compared to a 7800 xt. Same rt medium settings. With very strong exception. I had frame generation to achieve the same results. Ultra performance dlss with rt over drive to achieve similar minimum above 50fps 1440p. Conclusion. You have to use performance or ultra performance with frame gen. To achieve the same minimum FPS with a 4070. The cheaper one to be in parody to the 7800 xt. The weakness I believe is the lower bus width of the nvidia gpus. That goes for anything under a rtx 4080. But I can still do ray tracing at playable frame rates. Even with the latest mid range nvidia gpu. So i argue you are right to some extent. But also wrong to some extent. Its a give and take. Do I regret getting a rtx 4070 with the regular pcie power connection. No. Do I want more yes. But even with my 3090 for my workstation 24gb isn't enough for what I do in blender 3.6 and above. Would I buy an amd card or even intel. Its quite there yet to give up nvidia. Especially with Ray tracing frame by frame with blender or real time in a video game or other applications that supports it. This comment is so long. Sorry. I doubt anybody would read this.

you need to enable freesync to solve the power useage. my secondary monitor dont have freesync and i need to keep it at 100hz for the idle power to drop to 30w. from 80w.

Personally saving for a 7800xt myself and Im planning to have it as my next 7 year gpu coming from a GTX 1070 and a GTX 750ti before that, a GTX 650 before that, and a GT 610 before that. Basically my first AMD anything. As someone who cant really see the point or the visual difference of ray tracing, the rasterized performance per dollar of the 7800xt is the best there probably is.

Same! I have GTX 980 with 4 GB VRAM since 2014. Will move to 7800 XT with 16 GB VRAM in march 2024. Nvidea are apparently launching the 4070 Super in January. But AMD just offers superior value IMHO. What I understand is that Ray tracing saves lot of time for development. Thus many games will be using it in future. So that is where our AMD cards will be tested.

Sapphire Nitro 7900 xtx 👍

Which card was better for editing and rendering videos?

Great video!

Can you do a review of rx 7800xt on productivity side, like game recording, photo/video recording, streaming and Editing. I know the AMD cards aren't build for high productivity works like for blender, 3D designing which i am not interested in.

Is it a workable idea to combine the AMD CPU with an Nvidia graphics card? Does AMD use fewer checksums than Intel, and as a result - produce more execution errors?

Wait, wtf is up with the raised blacks on the nvidia Cyberpunk footage? wrong gamma?

My sapphire is so dope 😍. Quality fans, low power, perfectly runs every title on ultra settings and looks fantastic. I love it. I suppose if I wanted a 4k display I would pair it with an xtx but I'm happy with 1440

6950xt here from a Radeon vii, the last Nvidia I had was a 1080 and I don't miss it lol. AMD does everything I need and even in cyberpunk I'm getting 60fps with ultra/psycho and ray tracing, I simply don't see any reason I would want to waste $500-$1500 more just for the next step up in Nvidia's like up. Stuttering could be from that mid/low grade CPU, I'm running a 14900k and no noticeable stutters however there were small ones when I had a 3900x before the Intel chip.

can you make productivity test video for 7800xt, and thanks for the clear video from nvidia to amd

it's a valid question. From my experience, my amd card would crash and had problems with my dual monitor setup. nvidia got rid of all those problems. it was a 5700 xt in 2018

I've never had an NVidia card. lol. IT's interesting to see how much work a person could put into analyzing the choice. I learned quite a bit. it was great. great job. thank you. voodoo 5 5500, 7750, rx480 rx580 5700xt 6700xt 6900xt. I'm p retty miffed about the idle draw since I have 3 computers on at the same time and my area has expensive electricity. Presuming a 50 watt x3 power difference, we're looking at an excess power bill of 450 bucks a year
