The tables turn in 3DMark Fire Strike, though, which is an older DX11 benchmark. The 6700 XT was 15% better than last year’s Nvidia RTX 2070 Super, though, and 20% better than the RX 5700 XT. The RTX 3070 gets a solid 13% higher score. This ends up being the first casualty against the RX 6700 XT. I did test 3DMark Time Spy and Fire Strike, as well as an assortment of modern games. It’s an interesting technology, though, that AMD says can add up to an extra 15% of performance in games. The feature works only with all-AMD setups and only in some games - and let’s be honest, that’s not where most gamers are at. Right off the bat, that means Smart Access Memory wasn’t something I was able to test. I tested the RX 6700 XT in a rig set up with 32GB of RAM, a 750-watt power supply, and an Intel Core i9-10900K. Still, it has its work cut out for it if it wants to dethrone the RTX 3070 in this price category. AMD is selling this as a high refresh rate 1440p card, and the 4GB of extra video memory over the RTX 3070 should help in those higher resolutions. The increase in clock speed and memory capacity is worth noting, though. That’s a good sign for performance-per-dollar comparisons. It’s 20% cheaper than its big brother, the RX 6800, while having 10% less shading units. In terms of price, the RX 6700 XT lands $20 below the well-received Nvidia RTX 3070. Here’s how the specs break down in the lineup: The result is a bigger difference in performance between the 6700 XT and 6800 than between any other AMD cards in the lineup so far. The RX 6700 XT is a new GPU, though - a different cut of silicon than what’s in the 6800 XT and 6900 XT. These have been a significant improvement over the original RDNA cards, but how they stack up against Nvidia’s offerings can be a trickier proposition. The RX 6700 XT is built on AMD’s Navi RDNA 2 architecture, the same as the other RX 6000-series cards released so far. This matches exactly what you get on the Nvidia side of things. That is, as long as you have the right cable and display to make use of it. HDMI 2.1 lets you run 8K displays up to 60Hz or 4K displays up to 120Hz.
All of Nvidia’s 30-series cards require a cumbersome adapter.Īround back, the RX 6700 XT also has three DisplayPort 1.4 ports and one HDMI 2.1 for connecting to a monitor or TV. The GPU draws power from a 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connector, which make it a clean and accessible upgrade. On the bottom, you’ll find a silver backplate that covers the circuit board, which is what you’d expect in a reference card. This is, however, one less fan than the RX 6800 XT and what many of the partner cards will have. The RX 6700 XT is a blower-style card with a dual-fan setup, much like the Nvidia RTX 3070. The RX 6700 XT looks a bit cheap next to it.īut once I popped the RX 6700 XT into my test kit, I was happy enough to enjoy the red outline and light-up Radeon logo along the top. Suffice it to say, I prefer Nvidia’s look. It’s a design aesthetic pulled from yesteryear, even compared to how last year’s RX 5000-series cards were dressed up. The light silver color and angled lines are a far cry from Nvidia’s more minimalist approach with Nvidia’s RTX 30-series. The reference designs of AMD’s RX 6000-series cards aren’t my favorite. How does it do? Well, it just might be the best proposition for straying away from Nvidia so far. You’ll likely need to get very lucky - at least for the foreseeable future.īut beyond availability, there are real questions to answer about just how AMD’s graphics architecture compares against Nvidia’s. I’m not here tell you whether or not you’ll be able to buy this card, especially not at its $479 official price.
