AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT & 7900 XTX Review

3DMark Timespy Extreme
Time Spy Extreme is a new 4K DirectX 12 benchmark test, available in 3DMark Advanced and Professional Editions. You don’t need a 4K monitor to run it, but you will need a GPU with at least 4 GB of dedicated memory. With its 4K Ultra HD rendering resolution, Time Spy Extreme is an ideal benchmark test for the latest high-end graphics cards. The CPU test has been redesigned to let processors with 8 or more cores perform to their full potential
3DMark is available on Steam here.

So starting things off with synthetic benchmarks and taking a look at at 3DMark Timespy Extreme, where the RTX 4080 sits around 8% ahead of the 7900 XT in the overall score, while the XTX manages to creep ahead by a little under 3%.
3DMark Port Royal
3DMark Port Royal is the world’s first real-time ray tracing benchmark for gamers. It shows you how well your PC handles ray-tracing effects in real time. Use Port Royal to benchmark graphics cards that support Microsoft DirectX Raytracing. Compare Port Royal benchmark scores to see how overclocking affects ray-tracing performance. Find your PC’s performance limits with custom benchmark settings and detailed hardware monitoring charts.
3DMark is available on Steam here.

In Port Royal, the XTX drops slightly, which was expected, and now sits around 5% faster than last generation’s flagship 3090 Ti, which is pretty impressive considering where the 6950 XT falls within our chart.
PugetBench for Davinci
A benchmark for both CPU and GPU performance that is a great basis for comparing the video and graphics editing capabilities of any system.
Available now on Puget.

As we move onto PugetBench for Davinci Resolve, both 7900 series cards give pretty solid performance in both the standard and extended tests with the RTX 4080 sitting around 6% faster than the 7900 XTX in this test.
