Sounds like AMD Big Navi might be a bit of a damp squib after all
2 years and according to the most recent leaks they've only managed to get performance on par with 2080Ti (or slightly more in games AMD do well in)
This won't help with Nvidia's top tier pricing for their next lot of GPUs
There is something not quite right about all these rumours:
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/asus-radeon-rx-5700-xt-tuf-evo/28.html
At 1080p,an RTX2080TI is 33% faster than an RX5700XT,and 49% faster at 4K.
So all the rumours hint,at double the number of CUs,(80 up from 40),almost double the memory bandwidth,plus uarch changes. Also additionally RDNA2 has improved performance/watt over RDNA1.
So despite this it is barely 50% faster than an RX5700XT,which uses a small 250MM2 die??
Yet if you look at the RX5500XT 4GB its literally half an RX5700XT 8GB and has half the performance.
The only way any of these makes sense,is if big Navi is actually a smaller chip with less than 80 CUs,ie,its actually a smallish die.
