Radeon RX 6700 vs Radeon VII
Summary
Reasons to consider Radeon RX 6700 |
| 175 watts lower power draw. This might be a strong point if your current power supply is not enough to handle the Radeon VII . |
| Supports Direct3D 12 Async Compute |
| Supports FreeSync |
| Supports ReLive (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty) |
| Infinity Cache allows to deliver up to 3.25x the effective memory bandwidth |
| Supports DirectX Raytracing (DXR) |
Reasons to consider Radeon VII |
| Higher theoretical gaming performance, based on specifications. |
| Supports Direct3D 12 Async Compute |
| Supports FreeSync |
| Supports ReLive (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty) |
| Supports TrueAudio |
| Based on an outdated architecture (AMD GCN), there may be no performance optimizations for current games and applications |
HWBench recommends Radeon VII
Based on theoretical specifications.
