AMD's GPU market share drops again, even after the release of Fury X

Tosh, Maxwell is just tweaked Kepler is the same vein that Fury is using tweaked GCN.

Neither is an all new architecture.

For Maxwell they tweaked the Kepler design by breaking its monolithic core logic into a number of independent components, then each of those control a small number of CUDA cores. So when an individual processor is idle, the control logic managing it can power it down. Resulting in lower power consumption.

AMD's biggest problem is image and marketing. The products are ok, although priced a little high still. As prices come down and maybe game bundles included, AMD's 3XX / Fury cards and Nano cards will sell well.

Apparently Maxwell is a new architecture (or at least a very heavily refreshed one). Pascal for instance is Maxwell-based (again, from bits I've gleaned) whereas AMD are coming with a completely new one.
 
Ok now I know your just trolling, you said.

I'm actually wondering how they have managed to launch a large number of gpu's when Nvidia has barely released 3-4 Maxwell based gpu's since last year.

Now you want to include the Nano and FuryX2. Neither of which has launched yet.

A 980ti isn't just TitanX with half the memory missing, it has less cuda cores.

Unless of course you actually want to just count new chips in the last year, then it is.

AMD Tonga and Fiji

NVidia GM204, GM206 and GM200, not forgetting the GM207 and GM208 mobile parts

AMD's mobile parts are based on either Tonga or the older cape verde chip.


You wondered how they have launched so many chips, I told you, they rebranded almost the entire last line up.
 
As i see it amd buting Ati was bad for well us... Ati was doing fine and i bet they woul be doing much better than amd gpus..

You do realise this is a Nvidia fanboy troll thread in the first place? The market share figures are for before Fury was launched..
Shall I post next week to say Fury Nano is released and later this year for the X2? :rolleyes:

If AMD only released Tonga and Fiji, Nvidia released Maxwell..which includes all those fancy GM numbers, just like Fiji includes X, Pro, Nano. X2.
Why I bother arguing with Nvidia sales reps I don't know...Pointless debate..who cares if Nvidia released one or ten more gpu than AMD.

You do realise that putting your fingers in your ears and singing 'la la la' isn't going to change the raw numbers, right!??

Any idiot knows (even this idiot) that AMD haven't released sufficient Fury numbers to affect these numbers barely 0.1% ?? Whilst the Ti and been selling in its thousands and thousands :eek:

AMD need a new product line and they need it *yesterday*, and they need it to kick nVidia's ass in both value *and* performance...
 
ATi were struggling quite badly internally before AMD took them over, took them a LONG time to get the costs etc under control. Ended up hurting AMD quite badly in some areas, which probably contributed to its current predicament...

Yeah that's right Maxwell is a tweaked Kepler at it's core, but that's not saying it's not good. What Nvidia have done on 28nm with Maxwell is really surprising. Without a die shrink, really impressive.

But neither Maxwell of the latest GCN revision are true new architectures, but like you said refresh / enhanced.

I think AMD's current lineup is actually really good, but the pricing is just a bit to high, could stand to be £50 cheaper in every tier tbh. Then AMD would likely sell in greater volume. I think once stock levels improve AMD's pricing will come down. But Fury X cards still seem to be in very short supply atm. So who knows when that will happen...

Nvidia own the market right now, a bigger piece of a smaller pie. AMD need to re stock and adjust pricing to regain market share ASAP..

Didn't realise there were so many stock analysts / market share analysts in OcUK forums as well as business analysts . Quite nice to see lots of experts in this field!

I thought I was a 16 year old girl in your eyes. ;)


You keep wanting to include the Nano and the X2, well ok but they had better hurry up and get here before September 2nd or you can discount Tonga from the list. Last time I looked a year was only 365 days.
