AMD’s RX 7800 XT was rumored to be based on the Navi 32 chip, based on the RDNA 3 architecture. The GPU is currently set to be equipped with 16GB of DDR6 VRAM, something that Nvidia has come under fire for with recent GPU launches. What you can expect from the RX 7800 XT is that it might perform better in VRAM-limited titles compared to the likes of the RTX 4070, since having an extra 4GB of VRAM headroom is nothing to sniff at.
Additionally, you should expect a TGP of 263W, meaning that the GPU might be less efficient than its Team Green counterparts.
