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. đ
Though, remains to be seen what AMD cooks up in this race to the bottom...

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".

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

On the bright side, it's a great 600W room heater! And a portable fireplace (ignition cable included)!

With every month that passes, I feel ever more infuriated that so many of the programs I use are essentially hard-locked to Nvidia, with frankly miserable performance on other GPUs. Not the cards' fault, the software devs' fault for - when they even bother at all - doing a piss-poor job of integration with other GPUs.

true but nvidia could solve this problem in a day easily. they just have to admit that their business moved on and they make more money with ai. then open source and cc-license all gaming related gpu tech. then the gaming graphics landscape will flourish.
right now they have a walled garden but forgot to build a gate into the wall so it's just there to allow the 10 gpu owners to upload cool 4k Cyberpunk videos

I can't wait for Intel to step up their game and for AMD to reengage. We really need the competition.
-
I've never given Nvidia a dime and will continue that trend.
