Today AMD releases the first series 6000 graphics cards, the HD 6850 and the HD 6870. Guru3D makes it's first review on the newest AMD graphic cards, where they worth the wait?

AMD has rolled out Adrenalin 24.8.1 drivers, which include support for Black Myth: Wukong, HYPR-Tune support, and much more.
Admin note: Attempted to point to AMD directly, but it crashes N4G for some reason. An exception to the rule at this moment.
Earlier today, Microsoft announced as part of its Q4 2024 earnings results that Xbox hardware sales fell 42 percent year-over-year.
Xbox sales tanking so hard that even the PS5 can't make up for it for AMD lmao
A partially redacted data sheet highlighting the expected ray tracing features coming to RDNA 4 GPUs has been shared by well-known hardware information leaker @Kepler_L2. We expect the features to also be present in the hybrid RDNA 3 + RDNA 4 RT design coming to PS5 Pro when it launches (presumably) later this year or early next year. The leaked data points seem to confirm that advancing ray tracing technology is going to be a major focus of RDNA 4.
This will be the actual start to Ray Tracing on consoles, I'm really looking forward to seeing what PSSR is capable of as well.
I can't wait to see what games designed around this can do.
if astro bot is fully raytraced / 60fps on the pro model, we can start believing the hype
There's gonna be quite a difference between ps5 and ps5 pro compared to ps4 and ps4 pro
As always:
I can't wait for the specs of the new consoles.
Wether it's NSW2, Xbox Next or PS6.
If Cerny stays the lead architect of the PS6's hardware (which is very likely I guess?), I am VERY excited for Sony's approach.
They've always done something unique noone else did.
And I expect the same for the PS6.
Edit: man, crazy. PS6 (six!) is already near! Time flies.
nothing major but nice upgrade for those with lower end cards
I expected improved tessellation performance from AMD with these cards(though Dirt 2 and Metro don't utilize it as well as Heaven...they need to do a Unigine test), I suppose that will have to wait until the new architecture. That is one area where Nvidia really spanks AMD on, however not many games utilize it atm, in due time though.
6850 and 6870 will replace the 5750 and 5770 respectively, while the 5850 and 5870 will be replaced by the 6950 and 6970.
here is the launch party
