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”.
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 read yesterday that the specs of the new AMD cards leaked. They have a performance increase of 45% compared to the last generation.

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
