Another one not even trying to read. I put zero opinion in any of that.

In Cyberpunk? On a 7900 XT? It's impossible on ANY GPU. Even 5090 can't do that, it's gonna be hard stuck at double digits. If you have Hyper RX enabled then it's not native, you have massive FSR included. Hello, fellow 720p gamer!

Literally any title with ray tracing being the only available option clearly shows that AMD GPUs trail behind Team Green pricesakes. Especially at the highest end where VRAM amount is redundant on whatever model. Avatar, for example, and SH2 IIRC. It's not strictly "absolutely sucks" but still bad.

Do you realise you compare a GPU that has a competitor to a GPU that hasn't? Compare to a 4070 Ti or maybe Super if we got a 7900 XTX that overclocks well enough, that's where 7900 XTX lies if we take RT seriously. Or 4080 if we do not. 4090 is a league of its own, it's allowed ANY price that's lower than whatever NV got in stock for even more advanced customers like these RTX 6000 GPUs.

Placebo effect. Colours are identical if we talk identical displays and identical properly working cables. If you talk "Vivid gaming" thing from the Adrenalin app it's arguably useful. Never found these oversaturated colours any appealing. Just calibrate your monitor properly and run games at default colours, unless you're a daltonic.
We could go on but do you realize that what you are saying is that my experience has not been my experience. That is not with Hyper RX. Is Gaming not about math anymore? Nope no FSR either but it does not matter. It is my experience and if you don't want to believe it that is your prerogative.

Well I am not going to change my position on the China effect for 4090s. Do you remember when Nvidia shifted supply to their Eastern vendors? Then made the 4090D to keep the sales going?

If you go back and read the review of the 7900XTX you will realize that that 4070TI argument is just the narrative talking. Yes the 6000s cards are good but my 6800XT cannot even talk to my 7900XT. Once again it is math but you will go on.

Colours are not identical. Vivid Gaming? Like you don't have total control of your monitor using AMD software. Yeah it is that flower Icon in the top Right corner of AMD software. Calibrate your monitor? Is this 2012. Mini LED and OLED are not calibrated. But if you must AMD can adjust the contrast, saturation, Red-Green ratio, Brightness, Color Temp and another one I can't remember now as I have been drinking. There is no placebo effect if all of the PCs are connected to the same display. Even my TV shows the same thing. I know that according to the narrative AMD can't be better than Nvidia at anything so it would hard for you to believe.

Yeah, definitely noticed amd have better colors. A 4090 can't display colors properly... :roll: :roll:

That's what you believe. The fact that I disagree with it proves that it is opinion, nothing else.

Edit: This is the problem with the "Nvidia is king" (virus) mindset. People believe it like it was fact when it actually isn't.

What are you on about? I can play Cyberpunk on a 6750 XT at 1440 UW native just fine. All I have to do is turn RT off. 4K should be a breeze for a 7900 XT(X).

That I agree with.

Or 4080 if we do not. 4090 is a league of its own, it's allowed ANY price that's lower than whatever NV got in stock for even more advanced customers like these RTX 6000 GPUs.
So just because the 4090 is ~30% faster than the 7900 XTX, Nvidia can ask for any price they want? Even 100% more?

I've had issues with Nvidia cards not displaying proper 8-bit colours with full dynamic range on my 4K 60 Hz TV. It works with 4K 30 Hz, but as soon as I set it to 60 Hz, I only get limited dynamic range. I've tried a 1050 Ti, a 1660 Ti and a 2070, all of which are supposed to support 4K 60 Hz, but none of them worked with full dynamic range. I didn't have this issue with my Intel Xe iGPU or any RDNA 2 card I have on hand.

What is this shit I don't even... Stop the colour wars lol.

I have just snatched 6 months old Sapphire 7900 XTX from a friend streamer's friend for €634 equivalent. That good I presume.
