So now hes writing reviews for The FPS Review? No plans to bring back Hard? I guess if several Hard staffers went there, it makes sense for him to go too instead of trying to pull them back

Yes, I left Intel over a year ago. Son had Leukemia and all the time spent in Santa Clara was not working out and was not going to work out in the future either, so it was time to bail before I got in any deeper there.damn I hope his son is ok.

If Big Navi is DoA then the 3070 (or maybe even a future 3060 super) is a no brainer for me.
Congratulations on your son recovery! Glad things work out for you and also fuck cancer.Yes, I left Intel over a year ago. Son had Leukemia and all the time spent in Santa Clara was not working out and was not going to work out in the future either.
My son is doing great right now. He just celebrated his 20th birthday and started technical school last week. His younger sister gave him a bone marrow/stem cell transplant. Everything is looking up.
And now back on topic.
I sold my MSI GTX1080TI Duke three weeks ago on ebay. I sold it at the low 400s...then again, I bought it at 400 so free use.
I plan to wait for Big Navi...for two reasons.
I want to see what AMD has to offer.
It'll give the RTX30 series a chance to be out there in use for any potential anomalies to be discovered.
There were a few with the higher-end RTX20 series in the first few months after launch remember.
The way I see it, if Navi slots in between 3080 and 3090, Nvidia will be forced into a Ti card with possibly more VRAM. I think 12-16 would be ideal for the 3080.
Your account is still there, you just are using the wrong address very likely, like the other 99% of people that have this issue.It's weird. I had an OCP account 6 years ago but when I went to log in it said there wasn't one registered to my email address. So here I am again because my usual tech forum is migrating and it's taking 120 hours.
They know Nvidia is very very scared, and because they are the nicest company in the whole wide world they have decided to not scare Nvidia anymore.Why is amd not responding at all? besides that "hmmmm" emoji.

From the over hyping and even "supposed" low supply so "buy now!!" marketing leaks, I am hoping RDNA2 is really scaring Nvidia.
But i guess its good time to buy gpu.. finally. but wait until the ti and super BS.

I was gung ho to buy day one, but am starting to realize that I have nothing I really need to play right now. So I'm moving towards the 'Waiting' camp. I'm hearing murmurings of a liquid cooled AMD GPU which gives me that nostalgic tingle of the R9 Fury X.
I’m actually beginning to think about sitting this one out...
Well, what are you playing right now?
Control, Wolcen, Ori and the will of the wisps, Doom eternal, Redout enhanced, Assassin's creed Origins.
Currently mainly Control and Wolcen.
All at 4K/60hz (Control at 1440p upscaled to 4k) with Freesync/gsync
Control with all the options up only seems to load the gpu up to about 70%, very playable
I have CP2077 preordered
A 3080 would be great for the nvenc, cuda cores (but I'm not using them yet as a coder, and am actually more interested in AVX) and RTXvoice... but RTX voice works ok on the 1080ti so long as I don't game with it, and I don't typically for video conferencing.
I play single player exclusively and am not sensitive to mid speed framerates, so long as they're over about 50 I seem to be ok.
I’m kinda wanting a 3090 bc DevOps is branching where I’m running with the ML/data science teams more often and there are production size algorithms I want to run locally just to build out more guardrails for them.
That’s purely for work, I have no use for a 3090 or a couple of them for gaming.
I could use the nvram size, and it would be nice to flip their workloads to containers locally to see what footprint they’d need gpu unassisted vs pointlessly burning $ on A100 runs.
Wolcen runs fine on my pc at 4k, and upgrading to a higher refresh panel just isn’t necessary for what I doWhat’s glaring to me is whether you want to sink $ into a 4k high refresh panel or not.
If you’re mostly single player, I’d be looking for Control and Wolcen clips on 3080 on YouTube.
If the gains are life changing then there’s no reason for change.
On a same boat but probably going to grab 3080 for ML/NLP and do play MWH on 4k and my vega is hard on keeping up.
It's worth absolutely nothing. AIB's don't even have a BOM yet, how would they even know pricing? AMD had zero plans to price there cards until they saw what the competition came out with. So, no they didn't price drop.. they always planned on setting prices after the ampere launch. This is just some wild stupidness. Could the final prices be right? Sure, but they aren't dropping anything, they obviously knew nvidia was going to come out first and weren't going to have a final price in mind until after that happened. But, I guess everyone needs more clicks these days.Take this for what it's worth: https://www.pcgamer.com/amd-rx-6000-series-price-drop-pre-launch/

Anyways, I'll be waiting on AMD, who knows what stock will be like for either company though, probably pretty crappy I assume.
I don't have insider information, just going by the rumors. Rumors are saying AIB's don't have a BOM and aren't expected to have cards available before the end of the year. Whether this is true or not, I can't be certain as we don't have anyone to verify. Either way, the point was, AMD never set a price before seeing what NVIDIA released/priced... so I don't know how they could cut their "prices" when they never intended to set pricing until after the release. Maybe their hopes? aka, they were hoping they could price higher but wont be able to?If the cards are going to be launching in a month (and even if October is a soft launch, they'll have to hard launch something before the end of November for Black Friday) the OEM's have had a BOM for months now (if not longer) to start their manufacturing planning and ramps.

That article is likely nonsense but of course AMD had a price target (or range) in mind when they designed the thing.
I wouldn't bother waiting for a 3070 competitor that cost roughly the same but runs hotter and more than not slower. Quote me on release!
because Raja isn't there to hype train a product 2 years before it launches..
