In a blog post published by AMD recently, it is mentioned what should be considered in a system that will play games in 1440p and 4K resolution. AMD has focused almost all of its focus on higher memory capacity in this regard. Therefore, we can say that it is a reference to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070, which will come with a relatively lower memory capacity.Sending memory from AMD to its competitor
In its blog post, AMD emphasizes that current games currently consume 16GB of video memory at 4K resolution and less memory will result in a potential bottleneck. That’s why AMD says its own graphics cards are the better choice in terms of memory. According to the company, the Radeon RX 6600 series is the ideal choice for 1080p with 8GB of VRAM, the 12GB Radeon RX 6700 series is the ideal choice for 1440p, and the 16GB Radeon RX 6800 series is the ideal choice for 4K.
AMD also highlights that the Radeon RX 6800 series with 16GB memory can now be purchased for less than $599 (price for the upcoming RTX 4070). However, AMD states that their prices are between $ 499 and $ 999, and they are ideal for gamers.
AMD also makes a performance comparison on both price and game basis in the article it published. The company compares the RX 7900 XTX with the RTX 4080, the RX 7900 XT with the RTX 4070 Ti, and finally the RX 6800 XT and the RTX 3070 Ti cards.
However, AMD offered a maximum of 16GB of memory on graphics cards in the previous generation and has increased this to 24GB in the new RX 7900 series. On the Nvidia side, with the RTX 4070, the minimum memory capacity will be 12 GB, but it is reported that 8 GB memory capacity may be available in the RTX 4060 and lower models.
