Cyberpunk at 1080p sees our biggest gain yet of 11% over the RX 7600, which is definitely getting closer to where I’d want things to be from a value-for-money perspective, but even then, it only surpasses the RTX 2080 SUPER in our chart and older and cheaper cards are available that also perform better.

It’s the same at 1440p where we see another 11% uplift in performance going from the RX 7600 to the 7600 XT which again puts it past the ageing 2080 SUPER but still falls short of that 60 FPS marker and instead is beaten by the likes of the RTX 3070 and 2080 Ti which can be had used for cheaper, and also shows that the 3070 with its 8GB of VRAM means that memory isn’t everything.

Enabling Ray Tracing sees a huge gain of 28% over the RX 7600, but in real-world terms, we’re talking 5 FPS which still means that AMD sits at the bottom of our chart and that pesky 2080 SUPER now sits 39% ahead of the 7600 XT with its 1% low matching the overall average of the new AMD GPU.

Though it’s not really worth talking about due to the dire performance at 1080p, the 7600 XT at 1440p comes in with 63% more performance compared to its younger brother which is a fantastic uplift if it wasn’t for the performance being so low in the first place. FSR will be your only saving grace here, but still won’t be enough to do anything of significance to raise the overall performance to playable levels.
