Sure GPUs are getting better but it's not as impressive if they also charge double for it and the existing models just stay at basically the same price.

From what I heard they have the "know" on chip production. We'll see if what they say is true. This was mentioned at their earnings call yesterday.

You're right. Words matter.

AMD's gpu's are garbage. They all run so hot and loud. I don't even understand how Nvida and 3rd party with same fans and heatsinks have their gpu's run so much cooler.
And I don't buy cheap gpu's. I shell out for the best cooling 3rd party and amd fails everytime.

My 3080 runs at 80*c 380w, my 6800 ran at 60*c 170w. 3080 gets about 20fps more, but at 220% the power.

Everybody
Should look into 3080/3080ti/3090 founder edition, they are some of the worst cooled cards that are on throttle limits.

I think the 6000 series is supposed to be decent, right?
I dunno, last AMD GPU I owned was a Radeon VII. It sounded like a fucking hairdryer under load. I couldn't believe they'd release such a piece of shit. And Supposedly Vega 64 was even louder.
I eventually managed to fit a Morpheus Vega on it and it was whisper quiet. All it took was about $200 additional cost for the cooler, fans, extra heat sinks, and the tools I needed to remove the cooler.
Ironically this was the BEST GPU investment I ever made, as I was able to sell it for almost $2000, 2 years after my original purchase. Thanks, AMD!

I've been reading this for a decade, including the infamous "poor Volta" and "amazing overclock", but actions are louder than words you know. They've stepped up their game in CPU department by light years, but sadly still anything more than 6-core is pretty much unused, while their GPUs have to close the gap at so many fronts I don't thing they can catch up with NV within just a single gen.

Please send your extraterrestrial 6800 to GamerNexus for analysis.
Meanwhile, my Asus TUF 3080 TI in a mere NR200 quasi SFF is running at 62C?

It was a powercolor red dragon undervolted to 920mv. Stock it would use 220w and ran at 65c. 2214 mhz was the base clock. Look up the review on techpowerup. They had a slightly better binned card.

What wattage is your 3080ti running at? Seems pretty low. I'm using a FTW3, so the power limit is much higher. Apparently there's an OC bios I can download that goes to 450w.

Excited for what they bring in 2022, they've been doing good work with tsmc. Would love to move to a ddr5 based machine with pcie5 support to get me by for the next 5 years. I was forced to put a custom water cooling solution in my 5 year old pc to accommodate a 3080ti hydro from the evga queue (waited almost a year). It's almost always sub 60c, I was surprised.
That said, I spent the first year of next gen with Ps5 and series x and have come to the conclusion that I'd be fine without a gaming pc anyhow.

With a 3080ti and 1440p+ you won't be CPU limited for the next 5 years anyway.
If you have Zen 2 or 3, or Intel 10 series or above you're gtg. If I was building a PC today I'd slap a 12600k in and call it a day.

Any leaks on if AMD is going to fix their USB power issues, or have they given up?

We should assume the latter. Love to be wrong but past history suggests otherwise.

I mean i bet you will be able to get the RX6500 XT at MSRP at least if you look for it... but I bet you wouldn't want that even with a 50% discount
what an absolute joke of a video card, holy shit!

AMD officially acquires xilinx
Is FPGA a game changer? This is a big deal for algorithms?
Its traditionally CPU + GPU or APU
but future products will have CPU + GPU + FPGA?
