AMD used the Gamescom gaming conference in Cologne, Germany for announcing the Radeon RX 7700 XT and Radeon RX 7800 XT graphics cards as the newest consumer cards in the RDNA3 family.
The Radeon RX 800 XT carries a slightly higher board power rating of 263 Watts.
AMD also shows the Radeon RX 7800 XT standing up great against the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card.
Of course, all of the launch-day metrics shared by AMD were tested under Microsoft Windows… You’ll need to wait for my Linux reviews of the Radeon RX 7700 XT / Radeon RX 7800 XT graphics cards for once these graphics cards are actually shipping.
It will be very interesting to see how they perform with AMD’s open-source graphics driver stack on Linux.
So far RDNA3 graphics with the open-source Linux graphics stack has worked out well – even the new Radeon PRO cards had great open-source upstream support on launch-day – so for those running a modern Linux distribution and interested in the RX 7700 XT / RX 7800 XT presumably you’ll be in good shape, but stay tuned to Phoronix.
