AMD to Launch Radeon RX 7000 RDNA3 on 3rd November
AMD announced that it plans to launch its next-generation Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards, based on the RDNA3 architecture, on November 3, 2022. We don't know if this is just a soft-launch date with availability slated for later in the month, or if it's a hard-launch. In any case, the announcement by AMD is curiously timed, as NVIDIA is widely expected to launch its GeForce RTX 40-series "Ada" graphics cards later today.
AMD RDNA3 will see the introduction of the company's first chiplet GPUs, with multiple logic tiles built on 5 nm, packaged alongside memory and display I/O tiles on a different node (possibly 6 nm). The company is banking on a significant shader-count uplift besides increased IPC, a redesigned rendering pipeline, a nearly-70% increase in memory bandwidth, and a doubling down on the Infinity Cache technology, to keep its high-end GPUs competitive with NVIDIA's.

Just as a reminder of : Hey you guys might want to wait, we are coming too.
But most people won't. Nvidia have such mindshare that people will buy right away what get out of Ada launch
Despite the plethora of teasers from the NVIDIA marketing department on social media in recent days, today's announcement won't be an Ada card launch? Strange that so many manufacturers are announcing compatible motherboards and ATX 3.0 power supply units.
Must be sheer coincidence, yes?
Oopsie, it looks like you are WRONG.
Oh well, thank you for playing. Please enjoy your consolation prize as you exit the stage.
:D:p:)
:):p:D
These day, they Launch it with availability date 1-2 month later without shame.
The driver software will improve so you'll end up with a better user experience from the get go if you wait a couple of months. With your 6900 XT, it's not like you're running a potato anyhow.
Go and look at the top graphics cards in the regular Steam Surveys. They are all older entry level models from the Pascal and Turing generations.
In the same way, there are more 5-10 year old Toyota Celicas and Honda Civics on the road than last year's 12-cylinder Mercedes S-Class.
If you have a large disposable income budget, the difference of a few hundred dollars for a discrete graphics card is not a big deal. Increasing interest rates for home mortgages are a bigger deal.
hot dog vendor puts up a sign "HOT DOGS HERE $5"
ppl line up and he goes
Sorry, this is just the "launch".....the "availability" of my hot dogs are not until next weekend!
it sounds just as stupid as it does, because it is absurdly stupid
It's an announcement and it deserves no other substitution or euphemism I just saw the $1600 price tag for the 4090
it's insane. looks like everything went sky high with the 2000 series gen and this trend will unfortunately continue I'm sure. We are now over double from what an equivalent flagship like the1080ti was brand new. The cost of living and inflation have not doubled in this same time frame. GPUs are going up at an increased rate from my perception.
From a performance-per-dollar perspective, the top tier graphics cards are rarely a great value proposition. It's usually a mid-tier card that ends up being the value champion in any given generation (RTX 3060Ti and RX 6700 XT perhaps).
But it'll all depend on how much AMD is charging. With the 4
070now rebranded 4080-12GB at an awful $900, I feel like AMD can one-up them by releasing a 7800 XT at the same price point and with similar perf to the 4080-16GB, and a 7900 XT that will go toe to toe with the 4090 for 1200, and win the price war (as bad as that sounds)Not gonna happen.
At least not in a radical way. Nvidia controls 80% of discrete GPU market. AMD has very limited production capacity at TSMC - they had it before the Nvidia and Intel also started competing for the same production processes, now it's going to be even more limited.
So what would the major undercutting of Nvidia's offering achieve? They can't food the market with cheaper cards. All it would do is enable scalpers to get their living by reselling cards for their "proper market place". And anger their shareholders by leaving the profit to scalpers.
next thing we know, Lisa Su will be telling the world that nVidia went to our aunt's farm forever where they can play with all their other graphic card friends :laugh:
