Regular readers of KitGuru will know I love a good old GPU revisit video, where we go back and see how something released three, four, even five years ago stacks up against modern hardware. So when Gigabyte got in touch about a sponsored video where our aim is to find out how much faster their RX 7000-series GPUs are compared to AMD’s previous generation offerings, you can bet I was eager to get started…

In this content then we pit the Gigabyte RX 7700 XT Gaming OC 12G, Gigabyte RX 7800 XT Gaming OC 16G and Gigabyte RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC 24G against the RX 5700 XTX, Radeon VII and RX Vega 64 to see exactly how far things have come since 2017. We test a variety of games, including new releases such as Alan Wake II, Assassin's Creed Mirage and COD: Modern Warfare III, at both 1440p and 4K resolution using ultra image quality settings.
Test System:
We test using a custom built system from PCSpecialist, based on Intel’s Rocket Lake platform. You can read more about this system HERE and configure your own PCSpecialist system HERE.
All GPUs were tested with the latest AMD Adrenalin drivers as of November 20th 2023. Gigabyte also sent over their M28U Arm Edition monitor which we used for all testing today, a 4K 144Hz panel that ships with a nifty desk mount instead of a typical stand.
