Which most of us AMD owners know as were constantly reminding nvidia owners when they get their benchmark figures wrong.

Bububu drivers! RTX!

It's stupid I agree but I have had it out with a fair few people who end up pointing to reliable drivers being why they choose Nvidia, even though personally I have had more issues with my 1080Ti than any AMD/ATi card I have ever owned. The issues are not major but they can be annoying.
 
Drivers have to be one of the worst excuses ever for buying into a brand these days. Both teams have times where there drivers are not great at times but all in all the experience should be similar.
 
6900xt > 96CU Amd exclusive initially
6900 > 88CU Amd Exclusive initially
6800XT > 80CU Amd reference only at launch, AIB shortly there after
6800 > 72CU AMD reference only at launch, AIB Shortly there after

That was a 4 week port to show off Ray Tracing. It would not have had any optimisation work done by the devs and I doubt the driver team MS/AMD side would have done any work on it at that point either. This is a lower bound of performance and the 2080S is not even 10% faster than the 2080 anyway. 2080Ti is a step to far but in titles that are optimised equally I expect Series X to be around 2080S performance.

Making excuses for what is a lie.

Are you now claiming that games on PC will now be optimised on a per GPU basis like consoles?

I've been lucky on both AMD for my HTPC, And Nvidia drivers for my main rig, Neither have given me problems, Outside of AMD's Wattman, For whatever reason if I tweak my fan curve in there it makes the driver crash, If I tweak it in Afterburner, Which I only just started using, No driver crash, Very weird.

Hypothetical - and a crazy idea that's been lurking in my head for a while now

What if the reason AMD have kept wraps on the top SKU is because its a 5nm mcm design?

Bonkers right, but what if :P

Im telling ya, just like you guys mention, its such a wifes tale about the driver issue, then the spouting of benchmarks that paint the worse picture I have to worry about general selection of components with people if they get this wrong, what other parts do they buy on a sheeple list?

If I went solely on this forums advice when it came to drivers I would never buy any GPU for fear of "dem drivers" :D

Do people shovel sand really deep and bury that head in there when it comes to intel drivers, chipset drivers, print drivers - jesus its part of the parcel, I dont want the plug it in windows decides whats best for me lifestyle it encourages complete laziness and when something goes wrong they stare at the wall as they cant fix it.

That doesn't line up with anything leaked recently. bit-tech, for instance, cite videocardz which list 80, 72 and 64 CU models on Navi 21 and Navi 22 coming in at 40 CUs.
https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-radeon-rx-6900xt-to-feature-navi-21-xtx-gpu-with-80-cus

So where did you get your list?

You are aware that RDNA 2 is not RDNA 1, yeah? We're not talking about just clock bumping, we're talking about an overhaul of the architecture. Just like Zen 3's bump, AMD's target of 50% ppw uplift is going to come from a number of different factors.

I have talked about it several times so yeah.
