Rumor: Radeon RX 7900 XT would be up to 3 times faster than the Radeon RX 6900 XT
There are a number of rumors on AMD's next-gen Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics cards. Take it as such, rumors. RDNA3 would offer a significant performance jump thanks to the implementation of a chiplet design like the Ryzen.
It is indicated that the next AMD flagship would be the first model of the Radeon RX 7000 series to adopt such a design, which would consist of two GPU's holding 80 CUs each (5120 Shader Processors), these would communicate over an I/O die. pretty much what you're seeing with Ryzen. The GPU would be Navi 31 and could be 2.5 times faster than Navi 21 (RX 6900 XT). The leaker, Yuko Yoshida, mentioned that performance improvement would be even greater, based on RDNA3 and 5nm fabbing.
It's speculation of the highest degree though. Personally, I don't see multi-chip design working well for graphics cards due to reasons of latency, cache, and complexity. Then again, we never would have thought that Ryzen would work out so well either. For now, this is a lot of gossip and hearsay though. As it stands the way I see it, now next-gen GPUs still aren't expected till the end of 2022 maybe even 2023.
Rumor: Ryzen 7000 processors all get integrated graphics - 04/06/2021 08:49 AM
The rumor mill the past years has been in 6th gear, and apparently, we're now already talking Ryzen series 7000/ ZEN4. It's a fresh rumor though. See One difference between Intel and AMD is that all...
Rumor: Radeon RX 6000 Series as fast as a standard RTX 2080 Ti? - 09/14/2020 04:10 PM
Alleged performance of AMD's next-generation Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards based on RDNA 2 GPU architecture allegedly has leaked. The performance is however based on the outdated AOTS (Ashes o...
Rumor: Radeon RX Vega cards Look to be Insanely good crypto-currency miners - 08/04/2017 09:52 AM
Gamers beware, rumors now indicate that the Radeon RX Vega cards might be insanely good crypto-currency miners. And that will be a problem as miners would purchase them for above average prices, which...

So funny reading the comments here saying this is probably fake news.
These were the same people who didn't believe the RDNA2 rumours about it being close to or beyond Ampere, or with the rumoured 2.3+GHz clockspeeds, or with the infinity cache, or with the 80CU die.... etc .etc
Yet these rumours were coming from like 3 or 4 different leakers and all turned out to be true.
And now these rumours are coming from the exact same people.... but people are like..... nah fake news.
Considering the performance uplift of the 60 series i tend to believe the rumour though pretty sure we're looking at a minimum two thousand dollar card here lol.

This is a weird statement, technically true but still weird.
The 4 generations of Ryzen has about the same improvements as 10 generations of intel 2000 -11000 series.
3900x is not a gaming CPU.
In gaming workloads a 3600 or 5600 is a better choice then a 6700k, even a future 5400G Quadcore would be a better choice.
For allcore productivity workloads a 1700 is allready better then a 6700k, no need to compare with a 3900x.
Back to subject.
I hope the huge boost to CU and shaders translate to higher performance, Nvidias boost to shaders did not scale well from 2000 to 3000 series, because of changes to the architecture i guess.
don't see anything weird about mine and frankly your post seems to validate it
you're specifically mentioning 4th gen 5400G as a better choice than 6700k,exactly because it took them a couple of generations to get the ccx-ccd communication speed to this level.
Productivity value was not part of my point because it doesn't particularly expose the problems mcm design can have when latency is a big factor.
Is this one of those random leakers that pop up every cycle that just make things up, or does this guy have a history of getting things right?
We need a leaker database. Feels like every GPU cycle we get these clowns and no one holds them accountable. Remember Mooreslawisdead? How did all his predictions go? Oh I remember, he was wrong about everything. Still waiting for my DLSS 3.0.
it's funny how many people follow trash channels like mlid and post their rumors here,even though he was 90% wrong about this gen.He knows absolutely nothing in advance and every piece of true information he has before launch comes from videocardz/chiphell forums.

Like any of us care...
It would be more intriguing if the title said,
Rx7900xt would be 3 times more available than Rx6900XT
