AMD has announced a couple of new graphics cards at Gamescom 2023, the RX 7700 XT y RX 7800 XT which have a reference price of $449 and $499, or 489 euros and 549 euros. They compete with the RTX 4060 Ti and RX 4070 respectively, which are priced at $399 and $599. As shown by the company on the Gamescom stage, the 7700 XT performance against the 4060 Ti will be similar, and the 7800 XT will be more powerful than the RTX 4070.
It would be a first movement in the prices of the sector, because they are high with the excuse of the economic situation and the 20% inflation in the West for two years now. AMD remembers that with the purchase of these RX 7700 XT and RX 7800 XT you receive a free copy of Starfieldwhich may appeal to some gamers.
There is little difference in performance between the two. The 7700 XT packs 3,456 shaders while the 7800 XT has 3,840, with a similar max turbo, only slightly lower on the 7800 XT, which has more bandwidth, 624 GB/s for its 16 GB of 19.5 GHz VRAM. , while the 7700 XT has 12 GB at 18 GHz with a bandwidth of 432 GB/s.
Point glowing is its consumption, 245 W and 263 W with the need for two eight-pin PCIe connectors for power. The RTX 4060 Ti and 4070 consume about 150 W and 185 W in games, so clearly AMD has to improve a lot in this area, because the difference in lithography only justifies a part of that difference.
Due to the amount of memory, the 7700 XT may be more interesting than the RTX 4060 Ti, but it will have to be seen in real operation and not with the data selected which AMD always gives. They will be available in stores on September 6.which is when it is put up for sale Starfield.
