Good thread. My Klipsch THX 5.1 amp died this weekend. It's been running stock all these years. Been buzzing for a few weeks. I actually have two of them, but the first died years ago and has been sitting in the box. Sent stpeteshepherd a pm, hopefully can fix them both.

Depends on your definition of suck. If you expect Zen 2 to be the second coming with 50% increase in performance, then it's going to suck. If your expectation is a more meager gain like Sandy bridge to ivy bridge then it won't suck.

And don’t watch youtubers

1880ti please

The notion that DX12 and Vulcan would be AMD’s savior died a long time ago.

What does anyone need an internet connection fridge for anyway?!

Because nobody's buying the 1200 one. Nvidia admitted rtx sales have been poor. They could use chips with dead rt cores, or produce a chip without them entirely like the 1160 is.

I'd like to see Nvidia counter with a GTX 2080 and 2080ti equivalent. They've already shown they have Turing without the RTX dead weight with the 1160.

If nobody told me there was a government shut down I never would have known there was one. Impact: 0

I don't buy digital copies of console games. Always physical. They can be found cheaper, and when you're done playing it in a week or so you can turn around and sell it. Wish you could still do that with PC games.

If anything, Intel will kill off the much weaker AMD first, not Nvidia.

As if we needed more reasons to use adblockers.

Nvidia needs several smacks upside the head for their new pricing model alone, but AMD is in no position to do it. These new parts won't challenge them. Thinking vega2 will be some miracle is too much pie in the sky. How many times must people be fooled by this? It'll be sub 1080ti/2080.

RTX in general is a bomb, from many perspectives. Sorry Nvidia, but you get $0.00 from me this gen, and possibly next gen if you keep this up.

I still haven't been sent the "October" update.
