Although it has only been a few days since the RDNA 4-based GPUs from Team Red hit the scene, it appears that we have already been granted a first look at the 3D Mark performance of the highest-end Radeon RX 9070 XT GPU, and to be perfectly honest, the scores seemingly live up to our expectations - ...
Oh yes, in comparison, 5070 has “only” 250W. I wish AMD did a Ryzen on NVidia. Like it did against Intel.
I am guessing they simply don’t see enough money in the consumer dGPU market. Their focus seems to be squarely on enterprise GPUs and powerful iGPUs for laptops.
One could argue this is a very reasonable strategy.
That could be the case, but then again, why bother with consumer market at all? Just for marketing doesn’t sound that much appealing - cheap and power-hungry. I have a feeling that they are still trying to compete.
I am sure they are trying to compete, but it seems their focus is really on the iGPU part for consumers.
Let’s see how things play out. I would only be happy to see both AMD and Intel offer compelling products (price and functionality) to compete with Nvidia.
