Can AMD compete with Nvidia?

The pricing and specifications for the AMD GPUs are looking good, however, It remains to be seen how well they hold up against the current-gen Nvidia GPUs. AMD has always been one step behind and with its competition using new tech like DLSS and frame generation, it’s hard to tell anything with current benchmarks.

The third-party benchmarks and performance will likely come a day or two ahead of its release. These will give people a better idea of how well these cards are priced in terms of performance. If AMD can beat Nvidia on similar grounds, it will be a huge win for the company and gamers will finally have options.
