AMD GPU HIP Resaults

Hello, I’m buying a PC soon and the prices for amd gpu and much lower that rtx cards like i can get 6700xt lower than 3060ti so i was wondering how does the performance hold i cant seem to find any comparisons using HIP

As of today, the HIP does not support hardware ray-tracing acceleration. As a result, AMD gpus are considerably slower than NV counterparts. Nobody really knows when it will change. If you need a card right now I would suggest buying NV.

will the support for ray tracing be added in the next couples of monthes ?

The only thing we know is that it’s planned. No estimated time as far as I know.

In terms of performance a 3060 Ti is a LOT faster than a 6900XT, forget a 6700XT.

Even AMDs latest GPUs do not have all their features currently supported in blender.
