    Interesting, good to know just what it is capable of. I understand that Unreal Engine 5, which is on the verge of release, has it’s own lighting engine that doesn’t use ray tracing. So if things go in that direction, maybe ray tracing performance won’t be as critical long term as NVidia want everyone to think.

    Thank you for your excellent videos! I just got a week ago an upgrade for my 6 year old GTX1070. A used 6800xt for 500 euros from a guy that bought it 750 a few months ago, including the invoice with 2,5 years remaining warranty. It's actually a new card and was a no-brainer for me in the current market conditions. I am very satisfied until now. I like the adrenaline software a lot! It's easy to navigate and make changes and the overlay works well. Currently I'm playing AC Valhalla, which previously was running at 45-50fps at high settings. Now it has an average of 120 at ultra quality. Next in line is Cyberpunk. I also upgraded my ryzen 1700 with a 5600 for just 150 euros and a simple bios update on my b350 mobo, which also supports SAM. Finally FSR3 will be supported on the 6000 series, making future demanding games easier to play at good fps. Good stuff!

    Considering that AMD also partnered with Epic Games to work on Unreal Engine 5 and will be launching FSR3.0 in 2023 offering a bump from 60fps to 110fps+ on 7000 series. It's quite phenomenal. Especially when you take into account that Unreal Engine 5 has it's own lightning engine instead of ray tracing. AMD might be a big winner here when it comes to UE5 games.

    I know this comment is 6 months old but Dan explains at the start of the video why he is using the highest settings. I mean if you really want great RT performance ALL the time, you'd be looking toward Nvidia? He made this video in mind of high refresh rate 1440p gamers that like to occasionally play single player game(s) on the highest resolutions while playing with "some" RT, so to me it sounds like the quality settings are the control? Because without RT the card is a beast @ 1440 even at the highest quality settings. I understand that there is minimal difference in noticeable visuals but the aim of this video is to show you RT performance on ultra/highest settings.

    FYI if you have an AMD card and the games does not support FSR, AMD can do FSR from the driver and upscale the game for you. Enable Radeon Super Resolution for the game in the driver control panel. Then when you lower the resolution in game below native res of your monitor, RSR will upscale back up. Quality varies game by game. Witcher 3 it's great. FSR 2.1 has been added to Cyberpunk now though and is very close to DLSS in this title in my experience.

    Also Metro Exodus enhanced edition is pretty inconsistent. For a Nvidia biased game, it’s somewhat optimized for AMD GPUs, but a few areas will make both 6900 xt and 6800 xt drop to the 40s in both ultra and high. I probably recommend making the game high or normal if you want ray traced for the reflections.

    'much raw power+ medium rt performance ' is actually prefferable to nvidia´s 50/50 take. the more raw rasterization performance, your gpu got, the more frames you will get overall. BUT if you got low rasterization performance, all rt cores in the world wouldnt save youre frames. in fact if you got low rt performance, a higher rasterization performance can actually improve your rt fps. this is why we see such insane overall performance on amd gpu´s compared to second gen rt focused nvidia cards.

    In Control whenever you turn on either reflection option it will have a big performance hit, but turning on the second reflection option afterwards should only have a minor impact since they rely on the same rays. If you ask me it should either be RT off or at least medium RT. Also, RT shadows really just improve the standard shadows where they look inaccurate rather than outright replace them, so they also seem to have a small impact as well. I'm not sure how that hit is affected by having reflections in as well, but I believe the individual impact of enabling RT shadows is lessened by having RT reflections enabled as well. The only option that seems hard to justify is the GI (or whatever they call it) option, which also seems to have a big impact and sadly doesn't add a lot visually more often than not.

I just got a RX 6800 XT and actually i am excited to replay Cyberpunk, i am going on some serious hopium that my i5 12400 will help me get better performance than what you got but either way the price tag makes it an obvious choice and also it seems FSR 3 will be available for the series 6000. Only the new cards coming out from both AMD and Nvidia worries me as the 4070ti can be found at MSRP 247 so i am seeing my options of maybe returning the 6800 XT which should be delivered until March it seems if the new cards have a better price to performance ratio.

    Not an easy review, given the high number of settings permutations plus the different demands of various scenes. Sometimes certain 'ultra' settings add nothing noticeable to 1440p and, when switched off, give more headroom for ray tracing. It's something each user has to experiment with on a per-game basis. I'm not into highly competitive gaming, so I aim for visual realism before maximum fps. I can't swear to seeing a difference between 80fps and 160fps - but I admit, big numbers are reassuring :)

    If 1440p looks too bad on your 48in 4k display you can try one of these resolutions depending on the performance of the game. You can set custom resolutions under the display tab in radeon software. 3200x1800 [1.25x 1440p] 3072x1728 [1.2x 1440p] 2944x1656 [1.15x 1440p]

    Do u have the game? What card do you have. Basically turning on any RT setting does most of the work for any subsequent setting.

And this game is not a tactile shooter. That would suffer from lower from FPS. And....... since the Ray's are already being cast... turning on shadows would barely add anything Basically, picking any option requires rays to be shot, which is most of the cost. So might as well go all or nothing (in Cyberpunk) Ignoring psyco lighting Because that changes everything into almost mine craft fully path traced multiple bounces and picking up color hues along the way

    I have a 6900 xt. It’s like 7-12ish percent slower than a 3080 in most games as long as DLSS isn’t included and doesn’t purposely tank AMD’s performance. I’d say both 6800/6900 xt is pretty good at Ray Tracing as long as you tweak your settings. (Mostly the latter tho) I don’t know how well 6900 xt does against the 6800 xt, since there’s no one that compare both of them at once. From a few benchmarks I’ve seen, separately, 6900 xt give out 5-15ish or more FPS depending on the games. So it’s basically what it’s like rasterization performance.

    The ray tracing implementation matters though. Full path tracing is not very doable on current AMD hardware. Far Cry 6 uses simple ray tracing, and so do other games. Games that use a lot (Control) of raytracing or those that use it exclusively (Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition) are considerably better in Nvidia gpus.

    The thing that bothers my the most, and might be the only thing, of owning a 6800xt OC + R5 5600x is the high temps when playing with Ray Tracing, even with Fidelity ON. Yes I get 100+ fps on avg in most titles but at the expense of really high temps. I'm talking 75-85°. MY GPU has very good triple fans that turn on automatically and bring it down to 65° but the temp will go high again and the cycle will repeat. So until AMD gives an update bettering this issue I'm gonna simply keep playing with Ultra High settings simulating RTX

    Yes but, that isn't necessary. You could just use an 850w PSU. You'd need to factor in both the GPU and CPU with other variables. With a good quality PSU even an 750w would be fine. Tho an 850w would give wiggle room. So while 1200 will work its overkill and an extra cost that isn't needed. Just get an 850w gold or platinum rated PSU.

In some like Metro Exodus Enhanced Editon it is because they focused on it or in other games were the effects are not causing a big hit in performance. For me currently RT is still a future thing and i don't think that will change soon.
