As someone who's currently running a 1080 into the ground, I felt this. :ROFLMAO:

Welp, my days of not taking Yeston seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

I watch the GPU market daily and have noticed the prices coming down as well. I snatched up an OC'd 9070XT when I had the chance, but still keeping my options open.

This statement makes my head hurt. We're talking about something that's nearly as simple as flipping a switch. Why wouldn't you do this? That being said, I agree with you that I'm disappointed we didn't get a next-tier-up AMD offering. That also being said, after sales tax and shipping, my...

They way I see it, this issue is complex and no one take is going to be completely correct. Multiple truths can coexist, for example: 1) Nvidia makes good money on the gaming GPU market. They were a gaming GPU business for many years, and while the company's tremendous value increased with AI...

While I wouldn't be in the market for anything, the fact that this exists is dang cool.

I don't pay attention to big words when I'm speed reading :p

So, who is PowerGPU? I've never heard of them. Edit: Did a quick search and see that they make prebuilts. The wording of the article made it sound like they are a GPU retailer/distributor or something.

That's true. But if a company's business model is to produce the highest-tier cards, how can they take AMD seriously if AMD doesn't take itself seriously? As of today, I'm the proud owner of a 9070 XT, but I had the budget for more, and really wanted AMD to produce something higher than a...

I mean, everyone has a different experience, eh? I'm currently using a 14 year old MSI system as a backup PC that's still going strong. My wife is using a killer MSI laptop for work. I'm currently using and have had multiple MSI components in the past, and had nothing but an awesome warranty...

Welp, I won the Newegg shuffle lottery today and purchased a Gigabyte 9070 XT. I wish I could be more excited, but it wasn't my first choice and a bit of a gamble. Reason being, I'm determined to build a water cooling loop and I only want a card that will have water block support. So, I'm not...

Speaking of scalping, I added a 9070 XT to my wishlist on Amazon. At the time it was OOS. But today they offered a total of 4 cards, priced at $1500.00. After 2 hours there are now only 2 left. I'm just shocked that I'm seeing a 9070 XT going for more than double the starting amount. Wow.

Dunno what AMD was doing. I wasn't shopping for an AMD at the time. I think they have dodged some criticism because, well, Nvidia is doing a great job of earning all the criticism they can get. And in hindsight, AMD may have saved a lot of face by delaying their launch while building up better...

My guess would be A) Q4 is Oct-Dec, and I noticed the 'dry up' starting in December. Which means at least 2 months of 'normalcy'. That also includes holiday shopping, which may have an impact. B) People smarter than me started scooping up 40-series in droves when news broke that Nvidia shut off...

At this point I'm gonna spend $1000 on a 9070 XT and be happy about it.
