Yeah depends on what you are after, for people who likes to tweak their own hardware. It maybe disapointing.With so little variances & leftover headroom, AMD's chip design & binning look really, really impressive.
But for most people tight binning also means everyone are getting practically the same experience, there is no "wrong" card to buy.
It is rather frustrating to get a dud.
For example my Zotac 2080 ti pretty much tops out at around 1995~2025 Stable on the core and has Micron GDDR6 that is rather disappointing too.
On 5700XT so far every core is within tight tolerance and all the AIB cards have Micron GDDR6, so with all the same ICs it truly is down to silicon lottery.
Unlike me where you pay $1300 and hope you get Samsung GDDR6. With some 2080ti that can do like 2150Mhz core, combine that with Samsung GDDR6 that can do +1400 the performance difference is noticeable.
Yes I am talking about cards of the exact same SKU having rather large variance.
