AMD RDNA 3 architecture marks the use of a multi-chip module design for the first time in consumer GPUs, similar to what we have been seeing with Ryzen on the CPU side. The smaller dies seem to afford higher yields and reduced manufacturing costs, which are being passed on to the consumer. In this review, we take the new Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT for a spin and see if they are indeed capable of taking on Nvidia's Ada juggernaut at more reasonable price points.https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-RX-7900-XTX-and-AMD-Radeon-RX-7900-XT-Review-High-end-RDNA-3-GPUs-for-4K-gaming-that-don-t-break-the-bank.674149.0.html
Thanks.
Is the new media engine capable of hardware decoding HEVC 10bit chroma subsampling 4:2:2 ?
The Nvidia 4000 series did not updated their decoding media engine from 3000 series so it is not capable.
Disappointing with not much real life tests, no Blender GPU/ Unreal Engine and no video editing (DaVinci Resolve for ex.) tests.

Since we had limited time with the cards, not many tests could be accommodated. But point taken. We will try to look at content creation workflow comparisons for a future article :)
Understood Vaidyanathan and thanks to you and the Notebookcheck team.
Just the kind of review that you'd expect from a website where paid AMD sponsorships are often prominent on the first page... not a single word on the lower efficiency (watt per frame) compared to both 4080 and 4090 (efficiency only matters when AMD is the leader) and just a few words on the inferior RT performance. Nicely done.
"Don't break the bank", who are you joking??? Over £1,000 for these cards. Hahahaha be sensible please, there is an economic crisis across Europe.

You are getting a full square inch of fully-functioning silicon from the very best VLSI semiconductor fab on earth - higher tech than Intel! Be grateful that it doesn't cost $1M, it would have cost that much just 3-4 years ago ...
