Radeon Chill was made back in 2016 when AMD GPUs were very power inefficient. Third party programs like OBS (one of the most popular recording and streaming applications) support the feature.ĪMD does however have two unique features which Nvidia has never tried to emulate: Radeon Chill and Radeon Boost.

You aren’t required to use Nvidia’s first party Shadowplay software to use NVENC, too. I’ll spare you the technical details on what exactly it is, all you need to know is that Nvidia GPUs usually record game footage at a higher quality than AMD GPUs. Software FeaturesĪnother distinct advantage Nvidia has on AMD is NVENC. AMD does have Radeon Image Sharpening (RIS), but all this is a very primitive feature by comparison. Though, AMD didn’t need to confirm that second point since we already knew RX 6000 doesn’t have machine learning hardware. All AMD has confirmed is that it will arrive before the year ends and that it doesn’t use machine learning. They have been teasing FidelityFX Super Resolution, but there are basically no details about visual quality or performance. It appears that developers will soon be able to easily support DLSS, but we will have to wait and see.ĪMD, meanwhile, doesn’t really have its own DLSS-like technology. In the future, however, we should expect more games to utilize DLSS because the popular game engines Unreal and Unity support it natively. However, just like ray tracing, DLSS is not present in many games because it requires a high level of support from developers and Nvidia. Like anti aliasing, DLSS takes a lower resolution image and makes it look better. Alongside ray tracing support, Nvidia also introduced DLSS (or deep learning super sampling).

Super sampling and visual smoothing technologies are also the next big thing. It’s difficult to tell how fast the industry will adopt ray tracing, so I can’t say whether or not AMD’s poorer performance really will matter. This isn’t necessarily a critical loss for AMD, however, since ray tracing is supported in very few games and sometimes doesn’t improve visual quality very much. Both AMD and Nvidia GPUs lose frames when enabling ray tracing, but RX 6000 GPUs lose far more. AMD finally introduced ray tracing with the RX 6000 series, but the performance just isn’t as good as Nvidia’s. Ray tracing is the next big thing in gaming, and Nvidia was the first to support it starting in 2018 under the RTX brand.

Nvidia’s power consumption is usually much higher than AMD’s, and given the performance that means efficiency is also lower, sometimes by a wide margin. Some other tidbits: AMD tends to offer a little more memory throughout the stack, but it’s not clear whether or not this will actually matter. If you want to spend less money for less performance, you have to buy an older GPU. Both vendors, however, cover nothing below $300, which means you have to spend hundreds of dollars for the newest GPUs.

The RX 5000 series is certainly fine but it lacks major features the RX 6000 series introduced. Nvidia provides better options in the “Lower High End” tier thanks to the introduction of the RTX 3060. There should not be a significant dilemma when choosing either Nvidia or AMD if you’re concerned about value. AMD still represents better bang for buck, but barely. Unlike previous generations, AMD is not positioning itself as a budget alternative consequently, the RX 6000 series is the most expensive generation of AMD GPUs in a long while. That being said, there’s no reason why you can’t use a 6800XT at 4K or a 3080 at 1080p, since the difference is only a handful of frames either way. If you want to min-max framerates, AMD tends to do better at lower resolutions and Nvidia at higher.

#NVIDIA SHADOWPLAY ALTERNATIVE 1080P#

I decided to just focus on 1440p since it’s right in between 1080p and 4K. As the resolution increases, Nvidia actually gains ground on AMD. The resolution is relevant because the margin between RX 6000 and RTX 3000 GPUs depends on it. It should be noted that this list was created using benchmarks conducted at 1440p and without ray tracing or DLSS or other related settings. Unlike the prior RX 5000 series, the new RX 6000 series makes a serious attempt to dethrone Nvidia at the very top.
