AMD has new GPUs and new FSR Rumor has it, it will launch in late January alongside Ryzen 9000X3D. It is expected that CES 2025 will be one of the most exciting events for AMD fans in recent years. Not only will the company announce new Radeon GPUs, but it will also reveal Ryzen CPUs […]

Claim that RDNA4, FSR4 and remaining 9000X3D will be announced at same time, late January. Not sure about that, because does that leave anything big for AMD to say at CES?
If various claimed timings are correct, we should see 5080 announced at CES with availability mid-Jan. Unclear if other models will be mentioned in depth at the time, specifically 5090 is expected to follow later. 9070 wouldn't have next gen competition immediately as we'd have to see when 5070 happens. Still any info they can get about 5070 before 9070 launch could help them optimise their pricing position.
FSR4 will be interesting as AMD finally catches up to DLSS and XeSS with a ML based upscaler, which will hopefully address the image quality problems of existing FSR implementations. Not mentioned here, but think I saw claims somewhere in the past it might be tied to specific AMD hardware, at least initially. So not a universal offering like FSR has been.
Sure. It also shows the momentum RT has and that they are, seemingly, focused on improving it so much. You'd think if they didn't have any faith in it's ever increasing use, they'd focus on other things.
I think AMD always did see its use, but didn't or couldn't put the effort in earlier to have as good an implementation. It takes time since they are reactive, not proactive, in driving gaming features forward. Have they introduced anything of note that wasn't implemented by Nvidia first, then take a year or two before they play catch up? Usually with a technically inferior solution.
Looking at that tweet, up to $649, but they equate 9070 XT to 7900 XT, not XTX. Yet other leaker has it at XTX/4080 level. So there is quite some uncertainty there.
