He'll still pretend that he's impartial though.
Aren't Intel supposed to be joining the GPU race? Hopefully that will spice things up a bit for us right?
Still wont pass the man's filter I'm afraid!!

Let's hope not, otherwise we can look forward to ever more insane prices from Nvidia, until ordinary people are priced out of PC gaming!
NVIDIA still have to contend with consoles. They can't go mad with the pricing.
I think most sensible people will agree with this.
That being said, it's hard to see how AMD will ever compete at the top end again, given the differences in budget.
Intel got lazy and complacent and allowed AMD to get back on and compete very well with Ryzen in the CPU market.
I don't see Nvidia making the same mistakes, which unfortunately leaves the consumer at their mercy.
And they have none.

All that's happened is Nvidia got it's new cards out before AMD. There's still plenty of offerings where AMD offer better value, ie
560=1050
570>1050ti
580 - a price range of it's own
590<1660
Vega 56>1660ti or 2060
Vega 64 best sub £400
2070
So one price tier where Nvidia is actually offering better value right now and AMD haven't got their cards out.

it willI would love if it turned out Vega performed better than a 2080 in ray tracing

Yea that's why I said I'd love if it turned out AMD do it better Imagine the rage from Nvidia fan boys if a £200 GPU rat traced better than their £700 card
Unfortunately Nvidia's market share has now risen to 81.2%. Why aren't people thinking about future repercussions of rising prices? I guess people who bought an expensive GPU were happy with the price so they dont care if the next gen is even more expensive?
I think AMD lost the discrete pc war some time ago but given that war is a mere skirmish compared to the console market of which they own both sides I doubt they are losing too much sleep.
Nvidia has an unassailable lead in the minor skirmish however, AMD’s offerings are very much at the low end 590/56/64 compete with 1660ti/2060 and their semi repaired instinct cards just aren’t viable (for me at least) given the amount of noise the wretched things make.
Nvidia haven’t done any better though, their 2080/ti models may take the crown but even if you could afford one you wouldn’t risk buying one given the failure rates. RTX appears nothing more than a smokescreen to offset the minor performance jump over last gen.
Only loser is the PC enthusiast.
Imagine what will happen to the poor RTX 2080 Ti, once AMD releases a proper GPU architecture on a 450-500 sq.mm GPU?! Bye-bye RTX!
