They probably changed it, a few months ago i went to the XFX website and they still had the Lorem Ipsum placeholder text, by the time I told my friends they had changed it. Sadly I deleted the screenshot, it was pretty funny though

Tech Specs:

 

I'll now keep an eye out for this. I'm fairly certain I once saw ASUS' listing for the X570-E say:

AM4 socket: Ready for 2nd and 3rd Gen AMD Rising™ processors to maximize connectivity and speed with up to two M.2 Drives, USB 3.2 Gen2 and AMD StoreMI

Huh, it's the one that says 3900XT because that's a higher number than 3080. THe fact that the 3080 says rtx is just a marketing scam.

it also says geforce rtx 3080

Yes I was being sarcastic.

To actually attempt to approach this one:

 

This is a classic example of the problems with Editing and rastor images.  The thing about technical photos is theyre informational like text, but they’re in “art land” because they’re photos and as such frequently escape the editing that most text needs.  The old school solution to this was one used numbers or letters or something  and then the corresponding table could be edited. This baked the text into the photo so it couldn’t be edited.

That’s called “greeking” because it was common to use Latin text, which this actually does.  Very old school.  Latin was used because it has the same “weight” as English but the idea is to not have any actual words in it because the idea is to avoid reading it.  Grey wide marker lines are also sometimes used.  It is used when a page needs to be laid out and designed but the actual body copy isn’t ready.  If for some reason someone screws up, the text isn’t replaced and the Greek typography gets printed.  There are examples of this particular oopsie from as far back as the 19th century.
