Radeon RX 6700 XT seems very clock frequency friendly - Could Match 3060 Ti level perf

Radeon RX 6700 XT seems very clock frequency friendly - Could Match 3060 Ti level perf

AMD is still very busy announcing, releasing, and apparently still fabbing 6800/6900 Series GPUs. Meanwhile, BIOS files for the RX 6700 have surfaced, and an analysis shows that they could be designed to clock really high on the boost frequency.

According to reports, it would have 40 compute units (x64 = 2560 Shader procs), a third less than the Radeon RX 6800, however, based on RDNA2 with likely some L3 cache as well. Leaked first BIOSes suggest that the GPUs are very clock-friendly. Maybe even more so than the Radeon RX 6800 (XT). A check with morepower tool, shows a possible 2,950 MHz as GFX clock, it is a theoretical maximum value. E.g. the Radeon RX 6800 XT could go up to 2,800 MHz but these are hovering in the 2400 Mhz domain, sometimes 200~300 MHz when overclocked.

A second finding is the assigned TGPs. In the alleged budget model, which is possibly quite close to the reference, that is 186 watts - which is 92 percent of the TGP of a Radeon RX 6800 at 203 watts for the reference model. Radeon RX 6800 has 33 percent fewer shader processors and 12 instead of 16 GB memory. So based on that analysis, it seems that RX 6700 is going to rely heavily on high clock frequencies in regards to performance in order to match or beat the RTX 3060 Ti.

Radeon RX 6700 XT is expected to launch Q1 next year.

No news on the memory configuration? Besides very high clock speeds 12vram is another way 6700xt could win this battle. Im interested how much cache it would have.

could match? I think it will be faster and with more vram

It's slightly concerning it only has the same amount of shaders as my current, ancient card, but at least the clocks will be more than twice and the architecture a whole lot fresher. I hope the Infinity Cache isn't smaller than in the better models as a 192-bit bus is getting awfully narrow. If the raytracing performance scales down linearly from the better models, you can't raytrace anything but Tetris with the 6700 (XT).

I hope they release a 200€ card 2x the performance of RX580, is just my hopes.
So I'll be waiting longer for a 6600 or something...

Exactly! How did the OP get to this conclusion is beyond me...

It's clear that AMD with the RX 6800 is positioned well above RTX 3070 (in rasterization, excluding RT/DLSS, because they will bring those on par or close enough in a few months when they improve the software), so it would not make any sense to leave open such a huge gap downwards to 3060Ti.
The RX 6700XT will match the RTX 3070 and the RX 6700 will match the RTX 3060 Ti, again in rasterization. Or even exceed them with the great OC performance while offering 12GB Vram vs 8GB Vram from nvidia.

So the title and the opinion is wrong. RX 6800 will match the RTX 3060 Ti.
