We might see the launch of the Radeon RX 7800 XT.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Scott Herkelman, AMD’s senior vice president, says in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that the Radeon team will make some “major product announcements” at Gamescom (via VideoCardz).

    While Herkelman didn’t specify what those “major” announcements could be, AMD is due to launch new Radeon RX 7000-series graphics cards sometime this year.

    During an earnings call earlier this month, AMD CEO Lisa Su said the company will reveal “enthusiast-class Radeon 7000 series cards in the third quarter” of 2023.

    We may have already gotten an early glimpse at one of AMD’s upcoming graphics cards, as a now-removed product listing on PowerColor briefly showed the images and specs belonging to an RX 7800 XT Red Devil chip.

    Aside from the launch of new GPUs, AMD is also expected to release FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3), the latest iteration of the company’s upscaling technology.

    Rumors suggest that the launch of FSR 3 will take place around the same time as the release of Starfield, which comes out on PC and Xbox on September 6th.

    Nice, more disappointment incoming.

    Wake me up when a “Gaming PC” costs the same than an Xbox Series S.

      Graphics cards most of all have become insultingly expensive, yes.

      Do consoles still need an active subscription to play online? That’s where they make their money, the hardware has always been sold at a loss.

        I just amounts to -1 game for the cost of a yearly subscription. That’s nothing compared to the cost of a GPU alone.

        Consoles won this generation.

          I don’t care who wins anything, both have their pros and cons. I prefer PC because I can tailor everything to be exactly like I want it to be.

          And you know what, rising gpu prices have taught me to be more sustainable and consume less.

          That being said, the 6700XT has been looking mighty fine for a while now
