I like the one comment from the bug person about an American having the gall to want to go home from work on time.
Do not count on Intel. They are likely to fumble. Lip Butane may not be as kind to the graphics division as Pat G was, and he's already cut thousands of jobs.
I get the feeling he's mostly there to maximise the value of whatever they have left to be liquidated.
They've already fucked up their naming scheme, very impressive. Good job, Intel.
Well yeah there is that danger that ant people cut enthusiast market and order card department to concentrate on some enterprise and servershit. Because that is where real money is. But as I understand hardware for next gen is ready, already... So I hope they finish that.
Pat's biggest sin was attempting to do actual innovative engineering in a publicly traded company in an age where the only thing that matters is making the green line go up every quarter at any and all cost.
All this seething from the bugs just makes me feel one thing - Goddamn I love being white.
TSMC is basically a cult in Taiwan. You should be on your knees thanking Morris Chang for the privilege of working 80 hours a week in the TSMC slave pits for a salary that a McDonald's general manager with a GED would turn his nose up at.
Every Asian economic miracle, every single one of them, comes down to their entire population agreeing to never have families again and just work 80 hours weeks instead.
The Pro series has a different naming scheme. And yes, Lip Bu is going to destroy the company. That's what he's there to do.
Sounds like Taiwan’s been truly ahead of all us with the AI server farms… the GPUs are just their own bug people who run on rice instead of nuclear powered electricity.
Don't forget the fiscal and monetary policies to depress wages and force unnaturally high savings rates so that the
As long as Americans aren't sick of DEI, we aren't too hard to beat. Unfortunately, it looks like we're starting to get sick of DEI.
What happens when Confucian thought and Philosophy meets liberal democracy, you get a complete motherfucking disaster.
This will not happen next gen because AMD will put out a mid range 4090 competitor. While Intel's high end will be a 5070 competitor.
Doubt it. They'll probably drop something in between a 5080 and 4090 and fumble the pricing badly enough that itll be a dust collector
MLID put out a leak for a 9080 XT engineering sample that would use high clock speeds and GDDR7 to reach the 5080 (which is about +16% faster than the 9070 XT). It could be given 24 GB or 32 GB, and people might buy that for $1k. It would be a true and honest successor to the 7900 XTX.
I think $1000 is a bit too much for a hypothetical 9080 XT. $850 - 900 might be something that'd sell in good numbers though. But I don't personally expect AMD to release anything above a 9070 XT for a little while, who knows maybe they'll reveal something next year.
People bought overpriced 9070 XT for $800+. AMD easily gets to charge $1k if they add 32 GB GDDR7 and make it 15% faster, since it will hook in some AI users. It would be around 5080 Super at best. Might include a die shrink to 3nm like Radeon VII. But I'd take 9080 XT plans with a grain of salt.
My point is that AMD will likely continue to follow the pattern of overpromising, underdelivering, and going with a retarded price that kills traction. 9070XT is lightning in a bottle that they only managed to capture with the fake MSRP they had at launch. I dont think AMD can recognize that the gpu market overall has been a shitshow pretty much ever since polaris/pascal.
