Can’t make it up. Guess it’s crisis mode for marketing/community managers just now.

I thought you'd left AMD a few years back?

You may leave AMD, but AMD never leaves you...
Cheaper than a 5 year old used rx 580 as well. The market sucks and this is just another example of that. Honestly this is no worse than an £600 3060 or £400 1660. I get that everyone is having fun laughing at how extremely cut down this card is. But at this pont I think cut down to the bone in the hopes of it actually being cheaper and available is better than just sticking some more memory on a card thats been out for a year and charging double for it.£200 for a gpu that gets beaten in many cases by a five yr old rx580, christ folk will buy any garbage going

Just in case it wasn't clear, I had nothing to do with it.
Jedifragger said it well.

I remember seeing you named as Matt_AMD or AMD_Matt in a game of COD 4 way way back when I was rocking SLi'd GTX 480's.Just in case it wasn't clear, I had nothing to do with it.

Took pic and posted it on Tom's Hardware, I think this would have been around 2012.

I can't believe people are so desperate for a GPU that they are scrambling to buy a card that's one up from integrated graphics. What have we come too?

It's not that trash...
But it is trash...
Ebay is a good friend unless you are scared of 2nd hand I guess, or go get a monster off of Amazon or somewhere that does 0% interest on credit.

Why?
I did use that name on COD a long time ago. Can't remember which COD game it was though to be honest. Only really play Vanguard now, though I did play Modern Warfare and Cold War for a bit.

At the time it was like seeing a celebrity for the first time, as you get older you realize we are all ******** and not really more special and are just under someone's power.

I'll take that, usually get called a lot worse!

Which integrated graphics are anywhere near as good?
(Last time I checked integrated graphics i.e. Iris Pro / Integrated Vega 11 were still less powerful than the Radeon 7850 or Geforce 660 - both from 2012!, let alone the RX570's that these are being compared to)

I said it's one up from integrated graphics and lacks lots of features. The RX570 was always a card I would look at as the entry level for enthusiast level of graphics performance, 5 years on and the cost to the performance metric has got worse.
