AMD Radeon RDNA2 Navi (RX 6500, 6600, 6700, 6800, 6900 XT)

@ToTTenTranz To many threads I'd have to weave into the conspiracy to believe it, or care about believing it. I'm not familiar with the editor to know the differences between editor performance and optimizations vs game performance and optimization, but I'm not going to "count on the same happening with RT" without believing in the conspiracy first.

 

Nvidia RT patch will arrive later, not a good practice.

 

These are the robs not the rasterizer. Rasterizer are only 4 but in driver it is mentioned 8 if you look in the driver.

 

Oh my god, how could I have read it so wrong
My bad

 

So is this because the game isn't rendering right or is this what the performance will be like ?

 

it is a driver bug. Not known if performance is influenced by that.

 

Lol, remember when people were worried that current games would only work on Nvidia cards. I don't quite understand why it would only work on AMD for now if they're using DXR.

 

Do you mean like this?

Cyberpunk 2077 is a DXR game and will work on AMD hardware.

 

But they first announced that woud have not worked at launch. Now it is this way because Cyberpunk was postponed again to mid December. Only to say things like this happen all the time - especially with the "sponsorship". Also Godfall is a DXR game and will work with Nvidia... In the next patch or two. Not like Wolfenstein: Youngblood which uses NV proprietary Vulkan extensions.

 

So reading all these reviews do you guys think they would have done much better with reviews and impressions if they did

$600 6800xt and $500 6800 ?

 

Well of course. Vanilla 6800 Btw is not looking as the good bangs for the buck with the actual pricing, too. We know it is because of the 16 Gig of VRAM but it definitely would have looked better with a 40-50$ lower price.

 

Why does Godfall need a patch to work on Nvidia if it's DXR?

Wolfenstein Youngblood uses proprietary Vulkan extensions for ray tracing because the vendor neutral extensions for ray tracing were not available. The only way to do ray tracing in Vulkan at the time was the Nvidia extension.

 

Because optimization needed to run it well, of course

But they did not issue a patch for implementing standard extensions so far (which came out in March), and they did not announce the intention to do it. So you point is?

 

Thoughts about the stock cooler?

 

Yes of course ... ?

Is Wolfenstein Youngblood popular enough to go back and pay to develop a patch for a new api extension? I doubt it. The game bombed.

 

They likely have many rt optimizations that will not work on Nvidia gpu's, ie amdrtshadows.dll

 

Haven't watched yet.

 

Popular enough to go back and implement async RT.

 

The game sold pretty well, so I assume it is still quite popular. Moreover, it would not be a great deal to support the standard extensions, it's not like they have to change the game engine. And this would have been a good advertisement.
