    Metroid Prime 4's Development Restarted; Retro Studios Takes Over

    Good on Nintendo. One of the few, if not the only*, game company that “gets it.” Well, as far as producing games goes. Make the game good. And how they handle fiscal issues (Salary cuts from the top) like slow sales. Of course, how they handle online services, YouTube, etc. that is a mess...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    So a freesync panel which met the 30-144/whatever refresh rate with quality panel... would be identical, yes? And hence better due to a lower price/lower power consumption. How dense are you? https://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/g-sync Nvidia has “Find online retailers offering NVIDIA...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    Excluding Gsync Ultimate, the claim is dubious. Especially with laptop displays being certified as Gsync displays. I’m very sure there are multiple Freesync monitors better than the “Gsync” Async panels in some laptops. Do note those are Gsync, not “Gsync compatible”

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    AMD probably makes 10-20 dollars per console sold, in gross profit currently, depending on the console. A 2060 should gross profit somewhere between 80 and 120 dollars by my estimates. 60-75% margin. 2080? Probably 350-450 dollars gross profit. 80%+ margin AMD’s profit per chip will rise...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    Uh, sorry? That is one of the standards Nvidia uses for certifying a VESA async monitor as “Gsync compatible”. Sadly the only legit source I could find is Gamersnexus in video, apologies for the lack of a text option. About 3:20 onwards on the video. The 2.4 ratio is pretty much the only...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    Tensor cores are in Volta. Turing seems to literally be Volta with GDDR6 and “Raytracing cores” which are clearly not nearly as important as Nvidia stated. So far, at least. Huh? I can find plenty of 2080 cards with decent coolers for $700-725 on pcpartpicked. Maybe I am wrong, but 700...

    Here are AMD's Radeon VII Benchmarks

    Probably more to do with AA and other bandwidth/ROP/etc heavy things?

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    AMD probably is grossing 100-150 bucks on the card. Like, 400-450 dollars to make it, sell to AIB for $550-600. My WAG.

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    I’m not saying it is okay. But the fact Nvidia was going to increase prices was stated very clearly. And people were surprised at the high prices.

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    I’m not convinced that there is room to do either of those and keep margins up. At $350, Nvidia Is probably selling the die to AIBs for 130-160 dollars. Probably costs 40-50 dollars to make and package. Best case as is, it is just over their overall margins. Why is everyone shocked prices...

    NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Dismisses the Radeon VII as "Underwhelming"

    We would not have seen a 7nm consumer Vega otherwise. This is probably “overstock” from a minimum order of MI50 cards. Where AMD has to make at least some 5-digit number of them at once to get economies of scale... and AMD would much rather sell them through instead of sit on them. I think...

    AdoredTV Dissects the Marketing to Make Nvidia Turing RTX Performance Predictions

    For this video it is mentioned in passing. His video before this looking at Turing did talk about it. His opinion seems to be that per game (per engine?) optimizations would be needed to be able to take advantage of the separate INT and FP units. In this video the discussion of it was simply...
