Amd radeon vii outperforms rtx 2080 in first external benchmark
Table of contents:
Today we bring you news at least juicy about the new AMD Radeon VII. The well-known computing and gaming YouTuber Michael Quesada, was able to carry out a benchmark at CES 2019 with the team that assembled the new AMD graphics card and the Far Cry 5 game. The results? The less interesting, let's see what he achieved in his risky feat.
AMD Radeon VII beats the RTX 2080 and GTX 1080 Ti narrowly
Of course, we must bear in mind that the results obtained are from different teams, which, although he has tried to assimilate them as much as possible, they will never be exactly the same. That said, we start with the information.
CES 2019 was the stage for the presentation of AMD's new creation in terms of next-generation graphics cards, its AMD Radeon VII. This little one is the first to implement the Vega 7nm architecture, and it has at least 3840 stream processors activated. We say "activated" because the Vega 64 has a greater number, so we can speculate that it has more surprises inside that have not yet been revealed. In addition to this, they have no less than 16 GB of HBM2 memory that also doubles the data transfer rate to the Vega 64.
In addition to these figures you must also know the team where this Radeon VII was mounted to the delight of CES visitors. It was an Alienware Area-51 that mounted an AMD Threadripper 2950X, 16 GB DDR4 at 3200 GHz, SSD of 512 NVMe and 2 TB of HDD. The monitor had a 5120x1440p resolution. Absolutely all the graphics options in the game were maxed out.
To replicate these results with an Nvidia RTX 2080 and a Zotac AMP Extreme GTX 1080 Ti, Quesada mounted a 23-core, 64-core AMD 64-wire, and a monitor with 3620x2036p resolution, which for practical purposes gives a similar number of pixels.
The results that Michael Quesada obtained in the three benchmarks were as follows:
A priori, it seems that the Radeon VII indeed narrowly outperforms its two rivals, the next-generation RTX and the more powerful GTX 1080 Ti. But this does not stop here, since as we have said, if it was the first version of the Radeon VII, this could have part of its stream processors blocked, so the performance could be even higher than the one shown. We could also be in the opposite case, and that this card was its most extreme version, which would not be good news from AMD for an assault on Olympus.
Perhaps AMD is keeping an ace up its sleeve to soon take out a graphics card with even more power that could put in check the RTX 2080 Ti itself. But for now this is what we have and it is not bad, we trust that AMD will face the untouchable Nvidia to download them from the cloud.
