After the RDNA3 event, one of the most often asked questions was why AMD didn't compare their RX 7900 series with GeForce RTX 40 GPUs. Frank Azor of AMD offered the response (Chief Architect of Gaming Solutions & Marketing). He stated that the RX 7900 series will compete with the RTX 4080 series, and that AMD lacked the necessary data to enter this card into official charts because NVIDIA had not yet released it.
[Radeon RX 7900 XTX] is intended to compete with 4080, although 4080 doesn't have any benchmark results. The main cause of why you didn't see any NVIDIA comparisons is that. […] This $999 card is a 4080 competitor rather than a 4090 competitor, which costs 60% more.
PCWorld was also curious to learn more about AMD's next-generation upscaling technology, FSR3. During the RDNA3 showcase, the news was released. AMD stated that this technology will be released in 2023, however no details regarding timing or GPU support were provided. The community's next big concern was whether architectures other than RDNA3 would support FSR3. AMD needs more than simply RDNA3 to support FSR3, according to Frank Azor:
[AMD FSR3] is definitely something we have been working on for a while; it is not a reaction or a quick thing [to DLSS3]. Why is it taking a little longer than you probably expected for it to be released? The idea behind FSR is crucial to keep in mind, and up until this point, FSR has worked on AMD graphics cards from past generations in addition to RDNA2 and RDNA1. They are also compatible with competing graphics cards. It is far more difficult than if we had only implemented it on RDNA3. […] Beyond RDNA3, we genuinely wish to work on other things.
Azor maintains that it is simple to support a single architecture (hinting at DLSS3 on RTX 40). However, AMD pledged to support numerous architectures with FSR technology, and this process takes time. The company is "working to" fulfill the promise to support more architectures with FSR 3, although it is not yet 100% certain if they will be able to.
