In other words, it was imperative for AMD to react by promoting its own products, and that is precisely what the manufacturer did.
The latter has indeed just published several presentation slides which go into more detail on the technical sheet of the RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX, after their presentation a few days ago. These images do not deceive anyone: the objective is clearly to compare its graphics cards to the RTX 4080, both in terms of components and price.

A barely hidden reference to the monstrous size of the RTX 4000s, which often requires buying a new case to be able to install it. Especially since the manufacturer is currently at the heart of a controversy, following the melting of several cables due to too much torsion.
