The big question is how all of this plays out in the real world, running actual applications-and by applications, I mean games. If you don't own those already and plan to buy them, that's potentially $150 in savings (not that AMD paid the publishers that much). You get the Resident Evil 2 remake, Devil May Cry 5 (March 8), and The Division 2 (March 15). Add to that higher power use and the missing features and it starts to feel a lot like the R9 Fury X and RX Vega 64 launches: Too little, too late.ĪMD does sweeten the deal a bit by including three free games with the Radeon VII. Unfortunately, it looks a lot more like a direct competitor to the outgoing GTX 1080 Ti, about two years after that card came out. It's clearly a high-end card going after the same market as the RTX 2080, with the same base price. The Radeon VII is even more of a stumble than the RTX cards. Performance ends up being a baby step forward for roughly the same price. Some gamers balked at Nvidia's RTX pricing-its CEO even went so far as to call the poor launch sales a " punch in the gut." The RTX cards are generally faster then their outgoing GTX counterparts and include new features, but they're not substantially faster in existing games. ![]() ![]() The price is a bit of a slap to the face for anyone hoping for relief from the GeForce RTX cards.
