Surely if AMD have a card capable of beating the 3070, 3080 and matching the 3090, they would be throwing it in everyone's faces right now to persuade people not to buy Nvidia?
the could do but id expect something next week, as amd will have their own timeline as far as releasing what they do have. if they can show something a day before the launch of the 3000's series which matches it and say it will be cheaper it will make a lot of people hold off buying, the problem is if they know they wont have stock for a release until say mid october they cant release too much as they will want to put bits out weekly to keep people interested. if they wernt planning to release until nov or later due to console launches and being under contract with a non compete from sony and ms with a new product we could be waiting until december or even the new year. which honestly would be devastating for amd unless they have something that is genuinely a HUGE step up from what they currently have.
we can all take educated GUESSES at what amd may do, but for now thats all it is.
