Description:
AMDs midrange RDNA 3 graphics cards might see a full reveal at Gamescom 2023 
in Germany.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

Its been more than half a year since AMD introduced the world to its new RDNA 
3 GPUs, led by the indomitable flagship Radeon RX 7900 XTX . Six months 
later, we got the massively more affordable RX 7600 - and now it looks like 
we might finally be getting the long-awaited midrange cards from this range. 

Previous leaks had placed the launch of at least one more Radeon RX 7000 GPU 
sometime in September, and a new report from Hardware Times has suggested 
that we might get two: the Radeon RX 7800 and 7700, possibly as XT models. 

Current speculation points to a pre-launch reveal at Gamescom in Cologne, 
Germany towards the end of August. AMD is hosting a gaming festival at the 
event on August 25, and it makes sense for Team Red to showcase these GPUs at 
Gamescom - midrange cards are likely to be more popular among gamers who dont 
need the raw power of an RTX 4090 , and AMD has long been trying to position 
itself as the gamers choice for PC components. Will AMDs midrange cards 
deliver? I hope so 

Weve already seen the RX 7800 crop up in leaked benchmark results online, 
offering serious competition to Nvidias RTX 4070, though we did note at the 
time that the generational performance increase against the RX 6800 was 
modest at best. 

The RX 7700 might be a more attractive option, though; we lauded the RX 7600 
in our review as a gift for gamers on a budget, and sensible pricing on the 
7700 could land it in the same (very agreeable) camp. Ive long been a lover 
of reasonably-priced 1440p gaming GPUs, so if AMD can stick the landing here 
and outperform Nvidias RTX 4060 Ti , the 7700 could be the card I find myself 
recommending to everyone. 

Its been a long time since AMD launched the first cards using the RDNA 3 
graphics architecture, and needless to say, people have been getting 
impatient . These new GPUs could be worthy of sitting among the best graphics 
cards - so lets hope we really do see them at Gamescom - because frankly, its 
about time.
