AMD Radeon RX 7700 could be this GPU generation’s savior

AMD may be bringing out the massive weapons for this GPU era’s battle with Nvidia. Benchmark and pricing leaks have arrived for AMD‘s upcoming Navi 32 graphics playing cards, the Radeon RX 7700 and RX 7800, and the particulars gleaned in regards to the former are particularly thrilling.

We came upon earlier this week that AMD Navi 32 GPUs may soon arrive to challenge Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070, with a leaked launch date of  September. These Navi 32 GPUs are, in fact, the RX 7700 and RX 7800. The leak additionally confirmed potential specs for the 2 staff crimson playing cards, with 245W TDP, 48-54 compute models, 12GB VRAM, and 19.5Gbps reminiscence pace attributed to the RX 7700.

Now, one other leak’s dropped with early benchmarks and worth data for each Navi 32 pixel pushers, and we reckon they’re trigger for cautious optimism. The benchmarking shared by {hardware} leaker All_The_Watts suggests the RX 7800 achieved an 18,957 rating on 3DMark Time Spy, with the RX 7700 trailing at a decent 15,568.

Tech fanatic harukaze5719 exhibits that these alleged numbers put the RX 7800 simply above the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 in testing, and the RX 7700 halfway between the RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070.

Causes for pleasure have been laborious to come back by within the GPU area these days, with many current releases bringing disappointment and apathy. However, if these leaks are right, we predict the RX 7700 particularly is shaping as much as be a superb choice for the worth.

With substantial alleged efficiency will increase over the maligned RTX 4060 Ti for simply an additional $50 (or $50 lower than the 16GB variant), the RX 7700 will doubtless reside or die based mostly on what the remainder of its specs ship. A wholesome VRAM capability may push this card into an important spot available on the market, and a potential contender for the best graphics card crown.
