well capsaicin is mainly directed at devloppers, it was practicaly the same thing last year, no info on the 480, but more about the radeon pro duo, and talk about techs, just like this year.
 
Raja did say the real Capsaicin and Cream starts in the evening.
Do they have a 2nd conference show later? I heard someone mention 4am UK time somewhere.

3- not enough info about Vega to keep ppl from going 1080Ti, but my guess Nvidia will deter ppl from the Ti by price tag alone.

The last point exactly. Though smarter folks will wait for both to be out before buying one.
AKA wait for benchmarks
 
Well I am very happy with the name of the product, sounds cool. Just hope it brings at least Titan XP performance with it at a decent price point and I am sold.
 
tbh after watching that, initially i was like WTF did i just waste 2 hours on, but given the sandbagging over Ryzen thats been going on, and the hype AMD knew was present leading up to this event and Vega and how underwhelming it is, Raja at the end mentioned a seperate event later, and i reckon knowingly egged people on with the rubbish about the T-Shirt at the end, and building hype on the naming video which was again a massive fail let down, only makes me more increasingly positive that they have real news later.

If they dont then they need to sack their entire PR department and go hire Nvidias.
 
We are still 3 or 4 months away from Rx vega release,we all know Amd wont show us anything until proberly the end of may,for a june release,just like they did for polaris.

Yea no issue with the date or the launch could have done this.
Raja,
ok dude, do this, take card (Vega) hold in your hand, then point to card say, this is Vega and its coming later and today we are showing off some things we built with it and then say, no more hardware than this (point to card again) but we have a lot of VR developer demos great guests and btw Ryzen + Vega in 4k, works great.... [not difficult]

The demonstration AMD showed revealed that the new HBCC system would delivers gains of up to 50% in average framerates and up to 100% in minimum framerates in AAA titles that are solely optimized for Radeon RX Vega graphics chips.

Oh dear, doesn't sound good at all that, as every games a Nvidia, bar the odd one or 2 a millenium.

Yea, as much as I like the guy, he needs to take a page or two out of mr leather jackets book. What you just described would have went down a lot better.
 
i have a card i can use till about june (giving it away, birthday yada yada) i was hoping vega was imminent, its obviously not, should i buy i new card now, or hold on till june and hope vega is out then, or is june the absolute earliest vega could appear on uk shelves....
