  1. I'm zoomed in pixel peeping but I dont see any spots for gddr6 in that pic on the right? Can you literally red circle it for me
  2. The problem is the screw holes on the left and right interfere with placement of gddr6 there which your theory would still interfere. Dont see it on the leak either?
  3. Oh you should have posted one with Ruby Now this is gamur shit:
  4. Are you sure? Buildzoid seemed pretty confused but did admit it was possible they were using a standard gddr6
  5. It's literally a goddamn GPU designed for gaming, it's the actual essence of gaming. I get that complaint normally but it doesn't apply here. If you dont like the look sure but calling a GPU "gamery" is like calling bread "bready"
  6. TBH Microsoft seems like a better choice than fucking Oracle to run the equivalent of a video based social network but sure
  7. Gamer gum... We've reached peak gamer. Razer has won and become crowned King of Gamer Shit
  8. Just came in here to pay my respects for another Canadian founded company that closed up shop here and moved HQ to the US. I once attended a LAN event hosted at Sandvine's original HQ, they seemed pretty cool. Oh well
  9. I think the people in this thread are underselling this CPU. 1. Most games are not CPU bottlenecked, 2. 14 Broadwell cores will game just fine, the problem right is now is thread count not pure IPC as now games are no longer limited to 4 cores. If I was a streamer this would be a great buy for gaming and streaming I think due to the core count. In any case nice find, these are likely "e-waste", aka the big deployment of these isnt financially viable compared to the latest and greatest on a datacenter scale so they "recycle" them by selling them for cheap.
  10. The response doesnt have to be reactionary, just needs to not happen a month after Nvidia has cards ready for order. You repeated what I said, we know the detail. If price changes that means nothing to AMD, they will respond back if needed. AMD isnt fucking waiting for 3rd party reviews to launch Big Navi lmfao. The console launch is after Big Navi and Zen 3, it's not doing anything for AMD that showing RDNA in Sept wouldnt have.
  11. EV startup Lucid announces their vaporware is capable of over 800km range and the fastest charging.
  12. ??? When has this ever happened? If they are using the driver to sandbag that hard people will be very angry. A new card or price cut is much more likely
  13. I've seen variations of these 3 points floating around and I have to address them at this point: 1. Allowing NVidia the free PR instead of stealing thunder is not a good play. They definitely can "battle" it. They dont need to win a hype war, they just need to cut into the nvidia hype.The CPU/GPU vendors have done this before no reason they couldnt here. 2. Everything is known already. They can't ship new cards that fast, a super refresh would take some time. Pricing can be changed but if nvidia cuts, amd can cut. AMD will win the price war 3. Console launch will have no mention of AMD and the only people that will be talking about AMD in relation to consoles are PC enthusiasts trying to gleam RDNA2 perf. Lining up the releases doesnt actually increase the hype factor or mindhsare of AMD at all in regards to the consoles At the very minimum they should have done an "AMD Gaming" day and dropped Zen3 and RDNA2 deets at once. It's not them "hiding" behind Zen 3 it just makes sense. You get to push your name as a complete gaming compute solution, you get synergistic hype of the event, also dropping all that at once would be an epic mic drop imo.
  14. Did I say they said anything? It's quite evident that when they did say something was when any reaction happened so not sure what you are going on about. If you mean the "before consoles" they actually literally did make that comment so ur wrong m8 It's AMD's concern to announce the products a month after nvidia already started selling shit.
  15. No it wont be missing raytracing, they will announce it in October. it's already confirmed to be part of the architecture of the CUs as shown in the consoles. AMD does need to price more aggressively than they did with the 5700xt though. They are missing some features that Nvidia has and the driver stack just isnt as good.
  16. I think that really backfired. Based on my anecdotal evidence of how it changed my opinion from wait and see to buy rtx 3000 on launch. Doesnt look like the AMD sub is very happy either. I doubt normies care enough either way, i dont think it would make someone wait. If they had announcement this month, before or right after RTX, sure.
  17. It's more than 2 weeks. This is the announcement we talking about. So Nvidia had their announcement and then launch 2 weeks later. So if we apply similar timeframe, it's at nearly TWO MONTHS from rtx on markets to big navi on markets or maybe longer? who know yet? Why should I assume big navi will have better avail? Samsung 8nm has lots of capacity but yields aint great. N7P or N7+ are pretty capacity limited but yield great. Seems to even out to me.
  18. Fuck off AMD. You make us wait this long just to tease the announcement of an announcement that is long over due. You fucking make us wait a month after zen 3 to get any details on radeon 6000, meanwhile nvidia has launched 3000 series a month earlier. Fuck RTG. Fuck their meme shit. Clearly when they said we'd get the new shit before consoles came out they meant literally days. Because they know that xbox and sony are their real graphics customers. Fuck anyone wanting a discrete card. I'm not waiting for Big Navi at this point. I'll order RTX 3000 and resell if big navi seems worth. Doesnt seem that way yet.
  19. Really wish amazon would fuck off with this shitty marketing campaign for The Boys. First we got some cringe edgy header for imgur, now full screen ads in a full price game. I love the Boys but bezos is making me not want to support them. Oh wait I dont pay for prime anyways, fuck you bezos
  20. There's a reason there's a massive disclaimer in the Value section of the prizing chart
  21. Wait there's existing 35 terabit deployments? Who the fuck has that shit, literal network backbone providers?
  22. Sad, the devs are still here in Canada but I fear for their livelihoods
