Looking at the advantages, the 7800xt has:

  1. 10% lower price

  2. 4 more gigs of vram

  3. 6% better raster performance.

The 4070 has:

  1. Better frame gen

  2. Better upscaling via dlss

  3. Better drivers

  4. Better rt performance

  5. CUDA for the few people that actually need it.

  6. Better power efficiency.

  7. The ability to use both dlss and fsr. If a game just has dlss, amd users are screwed.

All in all I think the AMD card is still the underdog based in advantages and needs to be at least 15% cheaper in order to sway buyers to team red. For just a $50 price difference, the team green advantages are too stacked imo.

Edit: this is of course in the US market. Every market is different.

    The FSR 3 situation is absolutely crippling what would be very competitive cards, because game devs are building games with upscaling included to achieve minimum performance, which is death for AMD cards. AMD needs to get FSR 3.x WORKING in games asap with VRR and Antilag+ to compete.

      Or devs could just release a game that is playable at native resolutions instead of half resolution and driver fuckery.

      There are 0 games with FSR3 support as of now. I’m not counting the tech demo aka Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum which are mediocre at best
