If RX 8000 series becomes another price/performance banger, I'm goin' for it
I'm hoping the RX 8800 will perform like a 7900xt with 20gb and cost $399. And the RX 8700 to perform like a 7800xt with 16gb and cost $299. If they hit those prices, they will outsell anything NVIDIA offers.
@@devongreen7308 well they wont tho lol because amd has never outsold nvidia. nvidia holds like 7x the market than amd, amd just also makes console gpus and cpus
@@devongreen7308 Yeah they definitely wont give us prices like that. They had an amazing opportunity with the 7600 xt and they priced it the same as the 6700xt which outperforms it. Greed defeats intelligence in this business.
@@devongreen7308RocM remains shit and ngreedia will still dominate unfortunately.
@eloijones882 I get that. However, if NVIDIA releases the 5090 and it's, let's say, 30% faster is raster and 30% faster at Ray tracing than a 4090. It's gonna cost like $2,200, and no average gamer is gonna afford that. But if AMD can reach those numbers of performance and price as I described, they would at the very least gain a significant market share. Their bread and butter are entry-mid teir graphics card sales aside from their CPUs of course.
Newegg is doing the same thing grocery stores do with their membership discount card. Jack up the price on all items and then the card "saves" you money.
Probably. Or, for now at least, it makes it easy to determine who are their regular customers so they don't jack with them, and piss them off. Oh, wait, they really don't need some special club to look up to see if you make regular purchases, and know who not to mess with. Yet, perhaps they don't... (I used to buy everything from NewEgg, but I haven't purchased any items from NewEgg in about 12 years since they jacked with me, and have no plans to change that. I have a long memory. I love MicroCenter, and buy everything there.)
Krogers:
sounds like what Amazon has been doing lately with their Prime membership pricing
That is exactly what they doing and if you are part of a club (free or not) there are things they can do if you are not. Also data brokers are more inclined to pay more for data they gather vs random user data that is sent to them. Typically, a club signup has a few more 'required' fields for them to fill out making it more valuable, even if people put in garbage.
You shouldn't be using Newegg anyways
1:58
Theres an arbiration clause you have you agree to before getting into NE+.
Because they don’t want the negative publicity of a lawsuit to ruin their “image”. So when they screw you hard and want to sue them, guess what? Too bad!
If amd releases an 8000 series thats competitive in performance vs the 7000 series, lower power consumptions and lower pricing they will be in an extremely good spot. But if its only a 10% increase vs previous gen, they may have to fully rely on cpu sales to carry them for a few years.
I'm hoping it's going to be like the RX 480 vs the R9 390 situation - the new card matches the old high end card but at about 60% the price and much better power consumption/heat.
I'm pretty sure Newegg is just testing this before making it a subscription
edit: never mind you mentioned this
Yeah, either that or maybe people are shopping without an account and this is the incentive to make them register one? 🤔
Most of us dont need another 2000$ GPU..
most gamer did not need anything faster than RX6600. but GPU those $2000 despite selling less end up being the one that generate the most revenue. mid range sell the most volume but it did not generate the most revenue since 2016 according to JPR.
*Cant afford any $2000 GPU.
@@arenzricodexd4409 what we need are affordable powerful Ray tracing cards. for instance if the 8800 can match the 7800xt in ras while making the RT performance as good as what's on a 4070ti super ... then they'd have a winner card at the right price (assuming it will price around 500-600 bucks).
but if it just inches out the 7800xt at half the power while doing no better in RT than the 7800xt ... then the card is a dud. unless you are one of those folks counting pennies on watts ... but then if you are one of those people a 500+ dollar video is likely out of your budget any damn way.
@@arenzricodexd4409amd just can’t compete with nvidia. So nvidia gets to set terrible prices for their high end. Amd just sucks and can’t create high end performance cores. Lame. Stop acting like it’s a good thing.
Cant afford it even if I needed it lol

i was about to comment this
Been known for about a month their top card will just be a 7900XT using less energy, 4080 level Ray tracing with less VRAM for $500
That pretty good close to a 5070 or the ti one let's see if it turns Auth that way if so I see more and more go amd simce the 5070 and 5060 are gona be what most people go for
I still miss Reece as a co host
I was actually curious about whether Reece might be coming back this year. Having you, Kyle, and Reece together is absolutely delightful...though I understand it's probably tough. That's a lot of travel, time, and potential visa restrictions to deal with.
"A palindromic number (also known as a numeral palindrome or a numeric palindrome) is a number (such as 16461) that remains the same when its digits are reversed."
You had it right. No need to split hairs, maybe banananananazz though.
Ice cream sounds good.
I hope with this launch they will continue making the RX 7900 XT/XTX and just give it further price cuts. They are still great cards and will still be able to compete at $600 and $750 respectively next gen.
depends when AMD finally launch 5700XT they pretty much stop making Vega. if performance is roughly around the same there is no reason for AMD keep making those 7900s. this is not some low end card where production will carry one despite successor already being released to the market.
Honestly Im indeed waiting for 8000 only because of price cuts on previous 7000 gen.
Currently use a 6800xt and I dream of 7900xtx to drop below $800
@@XxxRedDevilxX I just got a RX 7900 XT from a Arc A770 16GB best choice I've ever made on a pc part.
@@arenzricodexd4409 Vega was nearly the same performance as the next generation with all that he is saying it seems like there would be anything to go up against the RX 7900 XT or higher. They also know how much people just like price cuts but the same product with the RX 6000 series.
@@EliezYT price cut. That will be one of the primary reason why AMD will not want to continue making those 7900s if the upcoming 8800/8700 can have similar performance. Those 5nm is not cheap where AMD can simply cut price. It is bad for them and even more so for their AIB. Plus a few weeks ago AMD decided to postpone 7600XT 16GB launch in china. All because they did not want to partner/retailer to rush depleting those 6700GRE stock by selling them below MSRP. in fact AMD said that they will give some sort of penalty towards retail or partner if they are known to sell those 6700GRE below AMD intended MSRP.
i actually have a 14700k and i enabled all the falcon northwest suggested bios settings (asus rog z790-A) and yeah if anything the temps are definatly more under controll, it would stay around 88-92 degrees when gaming and i know i only have a 240 mm rad with fans on low rpm (biggest i can fit in my h5 flow) but i didnt like those temps. with the better power limits i now run closer to 65-70 degrees in games.
Also think the new AMD 9000 cpus will be released at computex!
And if it does, worst case scenario we get 7000 at discounted prices!!
THANKS FOR SHOUTING INTO THE VOID WITH US BRETT
Modern mac os uses a mostly custom kernel built on freebsd utils.
Here's me still on a 1080 ti 😅 it still works great!! Great video Brett 😊
newegg went from college textbook villain to industry darlings. that 180 has never been explained to me
They were bought out by chinese private equity. The whole thing went to shit overnight.
I've done business with Newegg since 2000. They used to be the absolute best at customer service. I once ordered parts to build two complete systems for a client, and a couple of hours later I got a phone call from Newegg. They called to warn me that the particular motherboards and memory I had ordered had known incompatibility issues. They recommended a slightly more expensive set of ram sticks, which they then sold me at the same price as the cheaper ones. A couple of years ago, new management came in and screwed the company up. I think this has been dealt with since Steve at GN reported on it. I've bought several items from Newegg lately with no problems at all.
I'm thinking of buying a gpu at £300 ish price point, I've mainly been considering the 4060 or the 3060. The problem is I feel like I want to get the 4060 as it is a new gen but the 3060 12gb vram I feel would be better use than the 4060's like 5% higher performance. The only thing keeping me on the 4060 is the low power draw (my PSU is only 500 watts and I don't really want to get a new one).
Any thoughts?
It's a mainstream class GPU, I doubt 8GB will be a problem over its useful lifespan because you won't be running max settings or 4k resolution anyway. At 1080p 4060 has ~113% relative performance to 3060, support for newer features (namely DLSS 3 framegen) and excellent efficiency, if they're in the same ballpark price, 4060 is the way to go. Alternatively if you can sacrifice some performance, RX6600 is great value on the lower end of mainstream at ~90% relative performance to 3060.
@@SaltyMaud Thanks, I think I'll end up going for the 4060

@@Oliver-sn4be I did hear the new gen will be getting the new GDDR 7 which would be cool, I'm not 100% certain they will be giving the 5060 higher than 8gb vram to it though. Don't get me wrong I think it'd be pretty bad if they didn't but I can imagine Nvida doing something like that. Half tempted to get 4060 ti 16gb but that's a bit more than I'd hope to pay and higher wattage
Hey Brett,
Lots of companys do rewards programs. The logic is to promote loyalty. If one collects points by buying stuff from one business, they maybe more likely to buy more from that business more frequently vs shopping other places. They also want to sell your data... and you to give up your right to sue them for a data breach that likely already occurred. (That last part is unfounded, havent read any fine print)
When you sign up for the loyalty program, you sign away your right to sue. Forced arbitration, nobody reads the fine print!
@dh8203 thank you for taking the time to actually read the terms.
So that last part isn't so unfounded 🤜🤛🏾
Nope, I just got a 14700kf and was having a crazy amount of instability. So much so that it would literally crash in the BIOS, and when I did get into windows it would bluescreen every 5 minutes. Said heck nope and got a 7950x3d and I'm loving it.
I'm using the 92mm argb Silverstone as a cpu fan and will confirm that it works A-OK cooling a Ryzen 5 1600x
I havent watched any of the LTT channels in a few years, but it is good to see even though none of the people are the same, the jaunty banter still survives. 😂
Morning! Let's get this tech news 😎 greetings from Chicago!
faster GDDR7 or GDDR6 with double GB capacity?
Question me and my wife have a 3060ti. Would the 8000 series be worth the upgrade or would I wait a few more gens?
Depends on how much you want to upgrade and how much youre willing to spend. Its up to you. 3060 ti can handle most games fairly reasonably atm. If you want to upgrade do that
Newegg deal is simple, they charge this program to advertising (it worked didn't it?). And any time they can get you into a program they get you thinking about buying from them. Can't say I have bought from them much recently. Maybe a single component on sale, GPU, CPU, Motherboard, Case. Something along those lines. They obviously want you building a whole system with them, but its hard to find the best deal on a whole system. They will be missing a few components that you want, like a specific SSD that has good price/performance. Or the RAM is $30 too expensive.
Just snagged a used 6800 for $192 shipped. Not bad. 8000 can do whatever it wants, I'm good. (That said if they could release something on the level of a 7700xt in low profile I might have to try it).
@UFDTech I have a Ryzen 7 7700X and RX 7700XT , work likes a charm
Both are really good parts. You should expect 5 years in that system at least
I stopped using a custom water-cooling loop in 2019. I got sick of the maintenance and redoing the loop when I got a new CPU or GPU. Plus, with the lack of headroom on CPUs and GPUs water-cooling for overclocking is not worth it anymore. The only reason to do it is for looks, and I've gotten to the point where I don't care what the internals look like as long as it performs well and is easy to maintain.
My Fractal case has no glass panels no RGB, a Noctua air cooler, ugly brown Noctua fans. I don't see any of it and that is fine by me.
Looks like I won't be upgrading to AMD RX 8000... I might give Intel's Battlemage a try...
Cap
if it has almost the same price.
I would prefer Ngreedia
Watch them fall behind RX8000.
I hope battlemage at least has a great price... I'm rooting for Intel to keep going and get people another option.
Actually gddr6 makes a lot of sense given the vision they have with RDNA 4 they intend to make it a very cheap and with decent performance against their competitors and ironing the Raytracing shortcomings a bit too(deducing it from ps5 pro leaks).... GDDR7 is recently here and manufacturers like micron , samsung etc are just marketing it and showing the potentional of the new memory tech.... So don't expect it to be abundant in the market which will pull the price very high given Nvidia will squeeze all the supply with blackwell.... And gddr6 is already present in the market abundantly compared to its newer brother......
I think the news really is mid-range GPU with 256 bit memory bus.
Normally that is reserved for pretty high end chips but today it makes sense because the N48 seems to be double the N44 and going under a 128 bit bus is for APU class cards.
The fact is AMD isn't going to get in a price war over GDDR7 chips with Nvidia, they will just buy commodity GDDR6, save a lot of money and rely on the wide bus and probably improved memory management/Infinity Cache/Resizable BAR and other technologies to get it up to that 7900GRE level.
I would love to see an MSRP around $349.99.
They already have a small die size and less expensive memory and it seems like it's going to launch against RTX5090/5080 so it's going to have a huge value proposition.
Newegg may be doing it for data harvesting?
Where can i buy the exact gpu design in the thumbnail? I want a 7900 card with that design. That stripe is slick
The Newegg Club thing also confuses the heck out of me

I just hope that this new gpu from AMD to be power efficient, price to perf is already there on 7000 series but not really on power consumption which is where I'm hesitant to buy

It will be exactly enough for me, hopefully under 200W.
it should be good modern card, with decent drivers, and without fire hazard.That's my expectation.
AM I asking for too much? That's my expectation.
I want to set it up once, shove it underneath, and only remember how it looks like, when I hit my toe into it.
I sit surrounded by wood, so fire hazard GPU power plug is not an option.
I hope that slower and cheaper ram means I will get loads, but that's not really necessary for me.
"It will be exactly enough for me, hopefully under 200W."

@@arenzricodexd4409 true, but I only need cpu. I will only buy gpu, because 1060 6gb is running out of vram for work. I hope it will be 10 or 12 gb vram, because of that ddr6.
13:55 that's dangerously reductive and disingenuine. While it's not a entirely new architecture, raptor lake has physical hardware improvements and packaging changes over alder lake, namely more L2 and L3 cache, better IMC, more E-cores, faster ring, and of course general efficiency and stability improvements allowing higher clocks. If we want to oversimplify, 14700k is a 14900k (which in itself is basically a stepping update over 13900k) with one E-core cluster disabled. 14700k is a fairly significant upgrade over 12900k, with the 8P12E packaging it strikes a excellent balance between multithreaded productivity performance, gaming performance _and_ price. It's truly a underappreciated upper midrange jack of all trades CPU. Yeah 7950X is slightly faster, but also considerably more expensive, and 7800X3D, while a gaming unicorn, is still "only" a 8 core CPU.

I think if they knew about the issues in february, and they started to address the issues in february, but a lot of vendors, employees, etc, were not informed that a solution was in the works... they don't get points for it.
Steve wouldn't have had ammo for his video if the company had provided sufficient in-house transparency to address the concern of employees.
I wonder how the next generation of gpus and CPUs are going to utilize AI and if that would imply a need for higher end components?
I imagine but don't know for sure if new AI focused architecture in commercial servers will be all that is needed for that kind of content ( smell the subscription for performance and quality AI generated content on the horizon).
Furthermore, I also would imagine that instead of building expensive computers we can just use whatever hardware we have with this type of service. You can finally "download" RAM . And CPU speed, and GPU performance...
I really like the idea of water cooling but I'm also not in a place where I can accept a broken computer easily. Air cooling is peace of mind. There is no single part that can fail and turn my cooler into an insulator.

I told you weeks ago the RX 8000's were essentially a refresh of the mid and low tier RX 7000's And they're probably going to be RDNA 3.5 not RDNA 4. That is if RDNA 4 isn't ready by final quarter. It doesn't look like the 7900XT and 7900XTX will be getting a RX 8000 refresh version. Likely because they don't need one. So if you have an RX 7000XT or 7900XTX, just hold on to them until the RX 9000 series, that's my suggestion. Save your money.
It seems to be that the Rx 8000 series is shaping up to be a mid range GPU series
8800XTX should sit right under the 2nd fastest GPU out right now or at least on par. if the frequency is at 3000 it already beat the 4080 S pretty clear especially against the 7900XTX. if it can reach 3300 to 3500 more than likely 4090 performance. 5080 is already said to be slower than the 4090 but faster in RT.

Just go msi gaming x or change case for vertical gpu.
Sounds like Newegg wants their own version of Amazon Prime which used to be cheap but now nets Amazon up to $179 a year whether you buy anything or not.
I don't like team green or red in any particular reason. But even if their GPUs are "mid" as the youngins say it, as long as they don't follow after Ngreedia's greed and skyrockets their prices. Everyone is still going to buy their new GPUs.

as long as it's cheap it could be the best card to be honest with the ridiculous prices we have today.

The RX 5000 series was a bang for your buck and released in 2019, then in 2020 they released the 6000 series, 7000 series in 2022. So maybe the 9000 series will come in full portfolio (and upgrades) a year after RX 8000 series? Idk, AMD's worst enemy is always AMD.
EKWB - wondering how much money they must have locked in inventory. Optimizing their product lines, cutting away the lowest selling SKUs could possibly help.
My 7800xt is very good ngl. Dont need much more unless i was playing at 4k. Which im not, 1440p is perfectly fine
NewEgg is probably trying to do an Amazon prime and slowly raise the price. Pluse sell your parts browsing and purchasing data.
At this point Amazon is beating Newegg in both price and customer service.
I haven't seen anything that indicates what the price-performance of the 8000 series will be, other than it won't be at the high end. The fact is that there are a lot of gamers out there still using 1660 or 2060 GPUs who might want to upgrade, while the 6600-6950 series GPUs are vanishing from the market. My guess is that the 8000 series will mostly fit between the 7600 XT and the 7900 GRE and that they will fall in the $2-500 price range.
Half to two thirds of the TDP for the same performance of the 7000 series would be useful....
As far as Radeon RX 8000 series and GDDR6, these are supposed to be geared towards affordable next gen GPUs. AMD already knows that if you are an RX 7900-series owner or RTX 40 series equivalent and higher, you have no business buying these GPUs. The only people who would be buying these cards have some GPU that is 2 to 3 generations old. As such, GDDR6 at 18.5 Gbps data transfer rate is definitely a part of cost saving efforts. Less businesses buying the lower end GDDR6 chips means there is potentially a surplus at a discount. In addition, AMD and Nvidia potentially have improved their compression algorithms, which help pack more graphical assets into each GB of VRAM and reduce bandwidth usage. Such data is decompressed between the memory controllers and the GPU cache banks.
Overall, I don't fault AMD for sticking with low cost GDDR6 chips as long as they don't wreck the bus width.
I think a real concern for AMD's decision for no flagship GPU during the RX 8000 series is if RDNA5 will come sooner or AMD may release a refresh version of Navi31. If designed correctly, a benefit of the multi-die design is AMD designing improved Memory IO dies for RDNA5 that are compatible with Navi31. Of course if such thoughts were tossed around in AMD, someone would have leaked this already, unless AMD doesn't want it to leak. It is obvious that Nvidia related leaks are on purpose by Nvidia as a marketing tactic.
MacOS isn't Linux, it's BSD!
(Birkley Software Distribution).
So, like linux with more steps and less compatability.
I see it as like having a advantage card and collecting data
i think newegg trying to get more customers, its very common in sweden and problably EU
I mean even if the RX 8000 series GPU is only slightly faster, AMD still has the best *_hardware_* performance of all GPU brands. Just imagine if they had _software_ like NVidia to boost their hardware.
Newegg has turned into Amazon! I miss the good old honest Newegg!
radeon just needs to be good performance for the price people that have money for a 7900xtx also have for the 4090 so if they win the 350 dollar segment is what matters for 90% of pc gamers.
I'd say high-end cards are strong enough already, i'd prefer if we focused on making it cheaper. If we kept same gpus but focused on lowering price for like 5 years, eventually 7900 XTX would cost lile 200$
wafer price says no to that.
The promo code on that power supply deal doesn't work
🎶Apple's making AI chips..... AI, AI Uh oh 🤨🎶
I’m not even paying attention to computer releases anymore lol.
MacOS is based on BSD not GNU Linux, there is a huge difference, not the same, the only similarity is they are UNIX and a use GNU tools. Kernel wise, completely different.
It's a awsome day, BRETTFAST TIME
Apple "yeah, we got AI"
(Apple Imprisoning-you-in-our-ecosystem)
Glad I got a 7900xt at msrp ill just keep it going for a few gens lol
It's all AI. Newegg is run by AI. Brett is an AI, Kyler is an AI that hallucinates all the time. It's all a simulation mannnn
Ai has finally figured out fingers but it's worrisome that Brett might becoming selfaware.
I trust AMD Radeon , i know that even if they don't have an enthusiast gpu, it will have the most value for money gpus, just like when the RX 480 was released.
Me the budget gamer: unaffected
My gut tells me we may see an emergence of AMD crossfire. It may come in a Strix Point Rx 8000 hybrid configuration.
AMD needs new management
My focus is much more on Intel's new GPU lineup.
Bet Steve of GN will not do a follow up. In addition,he will assume full credit.
When do we get an AI trained by Kyler ? It would be glorious.
