No the series S doesn't "hold back" The X is targetted at 4K & the S at 1080p. Only problem is the memory limitation for which they can use the new "texture streaming rate" parameter introduced to support 8gb Nvidia cards The real problem is "unoptimized PC ports" that target 1440p for the X...

FSR works across all cards & doesn't discriminate between cards in terms of features/performance etc.

The hard limits suggest that AMD is keeping open the possibility of a factory "overclocked"/uncapped 7600 xt model & possibly with 16gb vram to boot

True. There will probably be a new X model. MS can claim that it is a new gen console so that game devs no longer need to support the current S

Maybe there could be a 7600 xt with extra 50w to 70w budget (& doubling vram to 16gb) for $330 to $350 But, not sure if increasing power budget massively will retain the profit margin for AMD

7600 is 12%-33% more efficient than the 6650xt Theoretically AMD could double TDP to match performance of 6700xt/6750xt but may not be worth jacking up the TDP so much on a low end card...

16gb 7600 should definitely be possible, because we had 6500xt 8gb Question is since RDNA 3 is more efficient than RDNA 2, will AMD release a higher TDP version to make it match the performance of 6700xt/6750xt ?

There are no bad graphic cards, only bad prices (except ofc the 6500xt) 4060 8gb overpriced by $50 4060 ti 8gb overpriced by $100 4060 ti 16gb overpriced by $150 4070 overpriced by $200 4070 ti overpriced by $250 4080 overpriced by $300

If you can move the budget up by $50, then you get the 12gb 6750xt https://www.newegg.com/msi-rx-6750-xt-mech-2x-12g-oc/p/N82E16814137735?Item=N82E16814137735

Performance is a bit disappointing. I would have liked something between a 6700xt & 6750xt level. As the 700watt 7990xtx showed, RDNA 3 can scale in frequencies given the power. So maybe a 16gb 7600xt that matches 6750xt for $350 is possible !? Or a 16gb 7600xt that matches 6700xt for $330 !!??

Interesting that AMD doesn't have a direct competitor for this card as of now. The 6750xt sells for ~$350 & the 6800 for ~$500 The 6800 would make a good comparison for the upcoming 4060 ti 16gb as they are both in the same price range I think you should compare all 4 cards (4060 ti 8gb &...

The RX 6700 XT is available for $320 https://www.newegg.com/msi-rx6700xtmech-2x12goc/p/N82E16814137640?Item=N82E16814137640

The RX 7600 should not cost more than 4060 as they are both in the same class & nvidia has more features such as frame hallucination I expect AMD to launch 7600 at $300 and sell at $270-$280 within weeks & then $250 eventually.

This is cheaper to produce than 6600/6600xt/6650xt $260 would still be profitable claims MLID 300usd likely to be sale price (before tax) in US. Might go further down depending on the price of RTX 4060

As per latest MLID leak, AMD had originally kept $330 as the placeholder in all marketing materials. It has now been revised downwards to $300 Imo, even 300usd is too high for this card. $280 would be a fair price for both AMD & consumers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy8KuvSaP1I

"I won't be back"

This 4060ti 16gb would make a very good 1080p ultra card. Only thing that needs to be watched is the price

Is that some particular make of 6500 xt that you are referring to ? The cheapest is $160 https://www.newegg.com/asrock-radeon-rx-6500-xt-rx6500xt-cli-4g/p/N82E16814930074?Item=N82E16814930074&Description=rx%206500%20xt&cm_re=rx_6500%20xt-_-14-930-074-_-Product

There has been a trend of current gen console exclusive games (PS5 especially) needing more VRAM https://www.techspot.com/article/2670-vram-use-games/ There was also a video by tech yes city where they came to following conclusion: 4gb - insufficient for 1080p 6gb - minimum for 1080p low 8gb...

Key point to note: Gaming is still profitable for AMD. They are not selling at a loss at CURRENT prices. So maybe they might launch RDNA 3 at "affordable" price points & yet still make a profit
