RedGamingTech has revealed hardware specifications and performance estimates of the upcoming mid-range RX 7800 XT, RX 7700 XT, and RX7600/XT. The purported specifications of the RX 7800 XT and the RX 7600/XT appear to have been scaled down as compared to the leaker's estimations from last year.https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-RX-7800-XT-specs-and-performance-leak-alongside-hardware-details-for-RX-7700-XT-and-RX-7600-XT.688754.0.html
So sad, the 7900XT is the 7800XT, 7800XT is the 7700XT, 7700XT is the 7600XT AMD did this to milk high prices. No one will pay $699 for a 7700XT, but call it a 7800XT and voila, instant huge profit margins.
7800XT will be probably barely faster than 6900XT and AMD doesn't even have AI trickery with fake frames to boost performance and make it look much better like Nividia did with the 4070 Ti.

Is this you being a troll or you have some purchase regret??? What is your analysis based on? The power consumption comparisons? If you compare RAM amounts and RAM bandwidth they match up to the same 6XXX value, so have no idea what you are trying to spin. The fact that they may not want to make as much of a power hog has you upset? Or maybe they are holding it back something for the 7950XTX or whatever. Who knows, who cares, but your rant is just childish. They are providing world class products for all consumers and cannot do that without making money. The company has lost half of its value since last year, and one bad year could mean less products for consumers. This is a world of capitalism not communism.
