2.8 benchmarks for rx 5700 xt, Sapphire & PowerColor?

yes, 2.81 is slower, as per my above post, there is a bug that they haven’t fully fixed (they mentioned its something to do with the new Noise shader… but not much beyond that. more details in the below thread

Very slow GPU rendering in Cycles (opencl). Blender 2.81

I’ve been using blender sine … well too long to admit, and yes Nvidia had plenty of issues in the past. Windows Unix, you name it they had their share. Only in the recent few years Nvidia actually spend money to improve the coding. Sometimes AMD sometiems Nvidia had the “higher ground” on performance. So I can’t agree with “nvidia has no problem, like ever.” But they are defintiely (currently) ahead of AMD, there is no doubt about it (as long as they dont’ mess up their drivers again)
