Yeah I would be careful reading the maths 

Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension.

There appears to be plenty of time to build a full head of steam.So you read Ampere is 40% rasterisation and 4x RT over Turing and you don't bat an eyelid. You read Big Navi is 60% over 2080 Ti and it's "choo choo" hype train?
I fail to see why you think the latter is "choo choo hype train". The 2080 Ti was only 35-40% ish faster than the 5700 XT with only 40 RDNA 1 CUs.
If you optimize graphics settings you can easily get 4k/60fps with a 5700xt on modern games. Whats impressive about that? By christmas or early 2021 you'll be able to do that with a £200 gpu. Plus nothing looks like next gen on that spiderman game.Ps5 spiderman 4k 60fps performance mode. Maybe hinting at a 8k 30fps mode?

No, I'm just sick of hypocritesMaybe you're taking things a little too seriously.....
What you are seeing is called fear. It's hard for them swallowing the notion that RDNA 2 won't be another 5700xt variant.No, I'm just sick of hypocrites
AMD are pushing "Navi 2X" for a reason, they're going for 2x performance per watt for RDNA 2. If they get it, all RDNA 2 cards would be double the performance per watt of their RDNA 1 equivalents.

Well we already know the PS5's GPU is not very impressive at all. The rest of the system is fantastic but its let down by it's GPU.
Sad but true.Double perf/watt unfortunately rarely translates in double the real world performance compared to the old card.
Wow. lol, OKWell we already know the PS5's GPU is not very impressive at all.
Well it ain’t 3080Ti performance so it is ****Thats a pretty bold statement. Why is it so lackluster then, asking as its not even out yet and the jury has already passed its judgement?

No "we" don't, don't use "we" when it’s just you, it's just speculation to support your narrative. I know you enjoy stirring people up but it’s just getting a little bit desperate now!
As far as I'm aware NVIDIA has never put of GPU in a console, if they did the console would have to be £1000 as the GPU would be so expensive, also they don't produce CPUs so I understand why Sony/MS have gone with AMD again. It would dilute their brand ethos of providing perceived bleeding edge performance for prices to match!
Nvidia were in OG Xbox and PS3. Then MS and Sony vowed never to work with them again. Now they are also in the Switch.
Ah OK, so nothing in mainstream Consoles since 2005, thanks.
@Grim5 Jensen, I know it's you. Go home man. Enjoy a cold beer and relaxe. We get it, you are afraid of the competition and would prefer green to be our new overlord. This rest of us really don't feel this way, we would prefer our new overlord to be a mix of green, red, and blue. So this damage control mode you are in isn't really working for you as we see right trough it. You've done well, made a name for yourself, albeit not always a good one, now it's time to let go and let the other kids have some fun. Your holding back innovation with your shady business practices. Enjoy that beer.
So the best selling console right now the switch isn't a mainstream console? Uh huh
It's currently the best selling console as Xbox and PS4 are pretty much EOL, it provides a very different offering to Xbox/PS4, it hardly a GFX powerhouse is it compared to the other consoles.
I should have maybe been more explicit and said I was only really referring to Xbox/PS4, do you expect Switch to remain on top when PS5/Xbox X are released?
Why do you think both Sony/MS didn't select NVIDIA to power their next consoles, surely if it the best the 3080 is so good then it was a "no brainer"?
To be fair here for a minute, a console, no matter how lackluster the performance is, is still a console. That said, I would classify the switch as a handheld with docking mode and not a console cause that is how most people use it from what i've gathered.
