In with the new and out with the old (HD 3850)

Changing an ATi branded card to an AMD branded one. That's treason.
ID: h6czuizID: h6d5lnhYup, especially since they were the original green team.....
ID: h6decgahate the management who did this.
Whats wrong with ATI brand?
ID: h6dufmhHaving unified branding is good marketing. You can now have a "full AMD PC", for instance. It's not like ATI was a massive brand that carried a lot of weight either. Sure, enthusiasts at the time knew about them, but whatever small outcry came out of that rebranding was nothing compared to how much AMD values their "full solution" brand image right now. They effectively get to appear twice as often in the news as Intel and Nvidia.

Did you use the 3850 the WHOLE time?
doing rough math
-> 2x: 4850
-> 3x: 7950
-> 3x: 6700You're getting something like a 15-20x uplift. Nice upgrade.
ID: h6ca68hIf the CPU is as old as his 3850 there will be a LOT of Performance left on the road.
ID: h6ckndfSpending that much on a gpu and not upgrading the rest of the system would be absurd. Better to get a 470 or something and spend the rest on a cp
/ram combo.ID: h6cu5oyits closer to 40-45x perf uplift
but its hard to fairly compare them
generally in games where the 3850 gets 5fps , the 6700XT can do ~220fps
0.4 TF vs 14.5 TF also is a 29x specs difference , but the IPC uplift makes that 29x perf difference 40-45x in real life applications
ID: h6eoh51The issue with IPC is that it's context specific. And yes, newer titles make assumptions about hardware that don't apply to older cards.
In the case of "it gets 5FPS" it might be a case where there's insufficient VRAM. The 3850 only has 512MB (though 3300MHz system RAM now has similar performance).

Nice! How is the cpu holding up in that build?

GPU’s have not improved the last 20 years. They just got bigger and hotter, this picture proves it. Checkmate.
ID: h6degedin 10yrs it will be as big as a mini ATX case.
ID: h6errotYeah its 25% longer for 40x the performance. No improvement at all, huh?
ID: h6esfpcYou forgot that it's 50% wider and 400% deeper
ID: h6d6ouoAnd consume more power
-
Sure hope the rest of the computer got an upgrade otherwise that gpu is near useless. The rest of the system wouldn't be able to keep up with and it's right back to square 1.

5700xt?
ID: h6bvgjx6700xt
ID: h6bvq0jHaha. Fat fingers. That’s what I meant. Quite the upgrade!
-
It's been a while since the last time I saw a card that doesn't have a stock air cooler, awesome memories and awesome upgrade.
-
Ayyyy
-
Wow nice upgrade. Enjoy my friend. A whole new world for ya.

Are you truly replacing a 3850 with a 6700 or just posing them for the shot? The 3850 wouldn't really have been usable for much these days.
ID: h6e5adwYeah after going to university, been on laptop the whole time and neglected my desktop. I can show follow up shot in the old system. Games I were playing aren't too intensive like CSGO but just got a new 4K monitor that doesn't take DVI
ID: h6eh5sxThere's always a DVI to HDMI cable. 🙂 Not that the 3850 could reach 4K.
How much did you pay for the new card?

Sir what CPU do you even have

Looking back, it's bizarre we now call AMD the Red team.
