AMD Big Navi Performance Claims Compared to TPU’s Own

AMD in its October eight on-line launch occasion for the Ryzen 5000 “Zen 3” processors, offered a teaser of the corporate’s subsequent flagship graphics card slotted within the Radeon RX 6000 sequence. This explicit SKU has been referred to by firm CEO Lisa Su as “Big Navi,” that means it might be the highest half from AMD’s upcoming shopper GPU lineup. As a part of the teaser, Su held up the reference design card, and offered three efficiency numbers of the cardboard as examined on a machine powered by a Ryzen 9 5900X “Zen 3” processor. We in contrast these efficiency numbers, obtained at 4K UHD, with our personal testing knowledge for the video games, to see how the cardboard compares to different current-gen playing cards in its class. Our testing knowledge for one of many video games is from the most recent RTX 30-series evaluations, discover particulars of our check mattress right here. We clearly have a unique CPU for the reason that 5900X is unreleased, however use the best presets in our testing.

With “Borderlands 3” at 4K, with “badass” efficiency preset and DirectX 12 renderer, AMD claims a frame-rate of 61 FPS. We examined the sport with its DirectX 12 renderer in our devoted efficiency evaluate (check mattress particulars right here). AMD’s claimed efficiency finally ends up 45.9 p.c larger than that of the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti as examined by us, which yields 41.eight FPS on our check mattress. The RTX 3080 finally ends up 15.24 p.c quicker than Big Navi, with 70.three FPS. It’s necessary to notice right here that AMD could also be utilizing a unique/lighter check scene than us, since we do not use inside benchmark instruments of video games, and design our personal check scenes. It’s additionally necessary to notice that we examined Borderlands three with DirectX 12 solely within the sport’s launch-day evaluate, and use the DirectX 11 renderer in our common VGA evaluations.

With Gears 5, AMD claims efficiency of 73 FPS at 4K, with its DirectX 12 renderer, with the “Ultra” preset. This quantity finally ends up 16.24 p.c quicker than that of the RTX 2080 Ti, which scores 62.eight FPS on our check mattress. The RTX 3080 is 15.61 p.c quicker than the AMD card, at 84.four FPS.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was by no means added to our VGA evaluate check choice, however we examined the sport individually at launch (discover its check mattress info right here). In this testing, we discovered the RTX 2080 Ti to attain 77.9 FPS at Ultra Settings, with RTX-off. In comparability, AMD claims Big Navi scores 88 FPS, making it 12.96 p.c quicker.

We know it is a very coarse and unscientific method to examine AMD’s numbers to ours, and AMD has most likely cherry-picked video games which are most optimized to its GPUs, but it surely lends plausibility to a concept that Big Navi could find yourself similar to the RTX 2080 Ti, and commerce blows with the upcoming RTX 3070, which NVIDIA claims outperforms the RTX 2080 Ti. The RX 6000 “Big Navi” finally ends up with a geometrical imply of 21% larger frame-rates than the RTX 2080 Ti in these three assessments, which might indicate virtually double the efficiency of the RX 5700 XT. Big Navi is rumored to characteristic double the CUs because the the RX 5700 XT, so the claims considerably line up.
