New AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT gives 33% better performance than RX 5700 XT at 1440p

AMD recently announced their mid-range GPU – the Radeon RX 6700 XT for 1440p gaming at max details, and now, as the availability date of March 18 is coming, we are getting more benchmarks of the GPU. We already know the last-gen RX 5700 XT was a value champion and widely loved by gamers, so the successor to that has to live up to the expectations.

To check that, @TUM_APISAK managed to grab the Ashes of the Singularity benchmark test results, also comparing it against its predecessor Radeon RX 5700 XT.

As we see at Crazy_1080p, the RX 6700 XT manages to grab 9300 points while its predecessor only grabbed 7400 points. Whereas at Crazy_1440p, the new GPU puts up a score of 8800 points while the RX 5700 XT scored only 6600 points, making the new RX 6700 XT around 25% faster in 1080p and 33% faster in 1440p.

Things go more in favor of the new card at 4K, thanks to the 12GB GDDR6 VRAM, at Crazy_4K, the RX 6700 XT manages to score 7600 points while the older RX 5700 XT only scores 5600 points. This makes the new AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT almost 35% better performer than the older RX 5700 XT.
