AMD Plans Late-October or Early-November Debut of RDNA3 with Radeon RX 7000 Series
AMD is planning to debut its next-generation RDNA3 graphics architecture with the Radeon RX 7000 series desktop graphics cards, some time in late-October or early-November, 2022. This, according to Greymon55, a reliable source with AMD and NVIDIA leaks. We had known about a late-2022 debut for AMD's next-gen graphics, but now we have a finer timeline.
AMD claims that RDNA3 will repeat the feat of over 50 percent generational performance/Watt gains that RDNA2 had over RDNA. The next-generation GPUs will be built on the TSMC N5 (5 nm EUV) silicon fabrication process, and debut a multi-chip module design similar to AMD's processors. The logic dies with the GPU's SIMD components will be built on the most advanced node, while the I/O and display/media accelerators will be located in separate dies that can make do on a slightly older node.

I'm actually more interested in the middle range.RT is worthless outside of the top range for the most part since there's no point for it unless you go fully into it. And even then, traditional lighting has improved enough that RT is a waste of energy.
Additionally, people voted with their wallets, tacitly approving the graphics card price rise.
People voted, will vote again, but those were the upper wealthy or desperate 20%, the remaining 80% get to vote this round.
The reason we're not seeing much difference today is AMD's weak RT hardware which forces developers to use very, very few rays if they want their games to run on AMD cards. But this will fix itself, in time.
Ray tracing is rubbish, no GPU is capable to run it, the only point I see in ray tracing is when used by developers to help create fake lightning otherwise use the GPU performance to really improve graphics like more way more polygons to have realistic models (what's the point of a cube ball reflecting everything) and better textures.
RX590 225W 58%
RX5700XT 225W 100% (just shy 50% perf/W)
RX6900XT 300W 200% (over 50% perf/W)
RX7900XT 450W 400% (promised perf/W)
Percents from TPU reference card reviews on the date of release (2.5k and 4k res)
Remember when Nvidia Physx was all the hype? Made games unplayable (I prefer high refresh gaming for ultimate smoothness)
eh it's w.e
I like both companies, but really hope I can get my hands a on high end RNDA3 GPU this winter. it may be the last build I do in next ten years if my life plans keep going the way they have been (I may be getting married soon) :rockout:
To me this sounds like a reasonable time frame (late in the year, but in time for the holidays if there is stock), but of course this is all to be taken with a huge helping of salt. It'll be fun to see how performance pans out in the next generation though. The rumors are all over the place, but all seem to promise more performance (just at wildly varying power costs), so it'll be interesting to see it all play out.
