AMD Radeon VII 16GB Review: A Surprise Attack on GeForce RTX 2080

We’re glad to see AMD launching a high-end gaming graphics card capable of contending with GeForce RTX 2080. Its 16GB of HBM2 convey big benefits in gaming and content creation workloads alike, and a three-game bundle adds value above and beyond Radeon VII’s $700 price tag. But we’d like to see a lower price, particularly given similar performance as the GeForce in today’s titles and no provisions for real-time ray tracing in future games.
