Any odds their next release is a PlayStation exclusive for 2 years?


It was clearly designed to be a practical scam, bilking the ignorant, who can’t afford the up front cost of a new computer.

Messing up isn’t the phrasing I’d use.


I think it was kind of the reason. But that statement is also correct. Technically.
With CP2077, they were pushing the Red Engine well beyond what it was supposed to do. Which lead to both, them deciding to switch to Unreal, and causing a bunch of bugs. So the bugs weren’t the reason; They were just another result of the reason.


Not even. My skin was crawling just watching the trailer.

Looks dope if you like that kind of thing.
I do not.




I’m not sure I understand why they don’t.

I thought bringing chiplets to GPUs, meant they’d be able just add as many CUs and cash dies as they needed to get on top. Even if it’s $3.5k and 1000W, they should be able to. They could sell 100K units as some limited edition special thing, and pull mind share away from nVidia by having the undisputed top card.

But they don’t. Which is why I think they undervalue having a halo product. They don’t think it’ll push units further down the product stack. I think they’re clearly wrong about that. People buy cards that fit their budgets. But they buy brands they know to be the best.


I think they underestimate the marketing value of a halo product.
That, or it’s just spin to account for the fact that they don’t have one.


All 4 of them are cheaper than the launch price of their 7000 series counterparts. That’s quite good really!


Am I the only one who doesn’t like to use these?
And refuses to use the frame generation?

I’d much prefer real 30fps, over strange fake 120.


4K seasons of shows.
You can compress Blu-ray quality video down to 10-15% of the space if you throw enough CPU cycles at it. Typically it takes me about 20 hours, per hour of video.


Honestly, I’m more interested in the new motherboards.
Apparently they made some real improvements to the memory system, supporting up to DDR8000.
I don’t need that speed, but I would like improved stability. My current system can’t run Handbrake for more than 36hours without things getting weird.
