In my experience it’s virtually identical to the 4090 in gaming, particularly when you consider that a 4090 is 2x the cost. The 4090 will do better, but not substantially. And in lots of games optimized for consoles (PS5 and Xbox are AMD based) the 7900XTX is actually the better card. I play a lot of COD and the 7900XTX outperforms there on framerate.
- DiabloD3 3y agoIt's even neck in neck in titles where Nvidia paid the developers to trash the console optimized path (which would have been ported as an identical DX12 path), and write an entirely new, much slower, DX11 path. Why? Because Nvidia's DX12/Vulkan-style path in the driver is absolute trash, while their DX11/OGL4-era path is very well tuned. Nvidia's "advantage" is entirely software, the emperor wears no clothes. With games that Nvidia's money couldn't cripple games, the 7900XTX, the card that both costs less and uses less watts, beats the 4090 in 1080p, 1440p, and 4k targets.
- causality0 3y agoIt's the edge cases that are the problem. I regret getting a 7900xtx over a 4090 because RDNA3 is godawful at game console emulation. Even the 1070 I replaced runs rings around my 7900xtx when it comes to Switch emulation.
- whalesalad 3y agoI have a hard time believing this. Switch is 720p low quality. Anything should be able to match that. Edge case indeed though - why not just play on an actual switch lol they are like $200
- heyoni 3y agoMost people emulating consoles like the switch are playing at higher resolution like 4k.
