AMD announces Radeon RX 7800 XT and 7700 XT graphics cards

AMD has introduced its a lot anticipated mid-range choices within the Radeon RX 7000 sequence of graphics cards. The RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT have been unveiled in the present day at Gamescom 2023 and will likely be out there beginning September 6.

The 7800 XT and 7700 XT are based mostly on the identical RDNA3 structure as different RX 7000 sequence graphics card. Both cards are based mostly on a brand new Navi 32 GPU, which makes use of a chiplet design just like the Navi 31 on the RX 7900 XT and 7900 XTX however totally different to the monolithic design of the Navi 33 on the RX 7600.

Radeon RX 7800 XT

The 7800 XT options 60 compute models and ray accelerators, which is a 29% discount in comparison with the 7900 XT. The ROPs (render output models) see a way more vital 50% drop to 96. Game clock has seen a rise from 2000MHz to 2124MHz.

Memory additionally sees some reductions, with the 20GB 20Gbps GDDR6 on the 7900 XT diminished to 16GB 19.5Gbps on the 7800 XT. Memory bus sees a discount from 320-bit to 256-bit, with bandwidth dropping from 800GB/s to 624GB/s. The Infinity Cache capability additionally drops from 80MB to 64MB.

The 7800 XT has a typical board energy of 263W. The card will function HDMI 2.1 48Gbps and DisplayPort 2.1 54Gbps connectors with assist for AV1 decoding and encoding.

The 7800 XT is priced at $499 and will compete in opposition to the $599 Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070. AMD claims the 7800 XT is on common 4% sooner at 1440p. The 7800 XT additionally has 33% extra reminiscence than the 4070 with a wider reminiscence bus however the 4070 can also be a 186W graphics card, making it considerably extra environment friendly than the 7800 XT.

Radeon RX 7700 XT

The 7700 XT is a surprisingly small step down from the 7800 XT, not less than so far as the GPU is anxious. It packs 54 compute models and ray accelerators and the identical 96 ROPs. Game clock is a barely greater 2171MHz.

The 7700 XT has 12GB of GDDR6 reminiscence with 18Gbps reminiscence velocity, 192-bit bus, and 432GB/s bandwidth. Infinity cache is 48MB. Considering the specs, the 245W board energy can also be not too far off the 7800 XT’s.

The 7700 XT is just $50 cheaper at $449 and will solely be out there from board companions. It will compete in opposition to the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, which is priced at $499. AMD claims a much more substantial 12% efficiency benefit over the Nvidia card for the 7700 XT however because it’s solely $50 cheaper you might as nicely get the 7800 XT.

AMD additionally revealed further particulars of its upcoming FSR3 know-how, which is AMD’s model of Nvidia’s DLSS3. FSR3 consists of body era know-how, which AMD calls Fluid Motion Frames and can almost double your body price. This, mixed with tremendous decision upscaling, can present close to tripling of body charges in titles equivalent to Forspoken. AMD may also be introducing Anti-Lag+, which is a driver based mostly function to scale back latency.

FSR3 will likely be appropriate with Radeon 5000, 6000, and 7000 sequence graphics cards, though AMD recommends utilizing on 6000 and 7000 sequence cards for one of the best outcomes. The know-how may also work with Nvidia cards, with AMD claiming assist for 20-series, 30-series, and 40-series cards though the final two will present finest outcomes. No phrase on compatibility with older cards or cards from Intel.

There continues to be no phrase from AMD on when this function will truly be out there to customers. The firm has said that Immortals of Aveum and Forspoken would be the first two titles to assist the function with confirmed assist for ten further titles, together with Cyberpunk 2077, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and Black Myth: Wukong. Oddly sufficient, Starfield will not be one of many supported titles.
