Results of testing video cards Radeon RX 6900 XT and RX 6800 XT in Ashes of the Cingularity were identical

The Radeon RX 6900 XT graphics card based on AMD RDNA 2 architecture is due out on December 8th. In the meantime, @TUM_APISAK has posted the results of the first gaming tests of this video card online.

For testing, the author of the test chose the game Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation.

The Radeon RX 6900 graphics card scored one frame per second less than the theoretically more powerful RX 6800 XT model with 102 frames per second and 10100 points. NVIDIA’s best RTX 3090 graphics card was able to deliver 104 frames per second and score 10,400 points at the same 1080p resolution and with the same Intel Core i7-8700K processor.

The authors of the resource Tomshardware ask themselves: is the RX 6900 XT really just a copy of the RX 6800 XT? Until the video card has entered the market, this kind of testing should be treated with a little bit of mistrust. And right there it is worth noting that a slight difference between these models is visible not only in the test results, but also on paper. The RX 6900 XT has 10% more shader cores, but that’s probably all. Everything else: TDP, frequency, memory – are identical.
