The leak of the alleged Radeon RX 7900 XTX performance test has caused a lot of buzz, but I can confirm that it’s fake and so are other “evidences” that arose as a result of that one that did nothing more than copy the data and tweak it a bit to make it look different.

There is currently no official performance testing of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX or Radeon RX 7900 XT until the embargo on publishing the first analyzes is lifted, which will happen. just today. I can confirm that we will also review both graphics cardsbut that is a matter of availability and time They will be published later.

You may be wondering how we are so sure that these tests are fake, and the answer is very simple because it is impossible for GeForce RTX 4080 to reach 81 degrees in God of Warand it is also impossible for it to move 71 degrees in Cyberpunk 2077. Also, the GPU usage rate doesn’t match the results I got in my tests at all.

When I reviewed the GeForce RTX 4080 this did not exceed 65 degrees at full loadand the normal average in games was 63 degrees, so the values ​​that this benchmark shows are completely unrealistic and should not be given any credence. Be very careful with this type of tests, of which there are many on YouTube, most of them are nothing more than simulations using data extracted from media where certain components have been tested.

First Radeon RX 7900 XTX performance estimates

Although we still do not have completely reliable performance results, thanks to the first leaks that have been produced, we have some data about the potential of the said graphics card in synthetic tests, which indicate that could be slightly faster in rasterization than the GeForce RTX 4080and that it will be worse at ray tracing.

Another thing to consider is DLSS 3. Its adoption rate isn’t exactly low, but it has already shown that it can achieve significant performance gains through frame generation, and AMD has nothing to compete with such technology. , at least for now. Still, I’m sure of it will surprise us with something big when introducing FSR 3.0 technology.

The launch of Radeon RX 7900 XT and Radeon RX 7900 XTX will take place on December 13th. Its MSRP is not yet known, but most likely both have a starting price 1,049 euros and 1,199 euros.
