NVidia is shitting the bed so hard it's just ridiculous. It feels almost intentional, like we're starting to leave the area of Hanlon's razor. 😂
Though, remains to be seen what AMD cooks up in this race to the bottom...
I doubt it, the consumer market is a tiny portion of what they sell at this point, they just don't care that much, they just tossed us scraps, that's who is a paper launch with technical difficulties
That's kinda what I meant with "feels intentional". Some manager went "Yeah fuck QA for consumer products, put those 50 people to work on business/AI stuff instead, we make fuck all money from consumers anyways".
I read yesterday that the specs of the new AMD cards leaked. They have a performance increase of 45% compared to the last generation.
https://www.pcgamer.com/hardware/graphics-cards/amds-official-performance-figures-for-rdna-4-leak-out-early-with-the-rx-9070-xt-claimed-to-be-42-percent-faster-than-the-rx-7900-gre-at-4k/
The 45% come from the comparison with rx 7900 gre, which is 18% less powerful as AMDs flagship 7900 xt, so the flagship difference isn't as huge.
This seems unlikely considering it's designed as 5070 competitor
