CES 2025 AMD & Nvidia Keynote Live Chat [06/01/25]

My expectations:
1.)Nvidia will push things forward with some great tech. However,everyone will moan because the price will be too high. Probably be stingy on the VRAM.
2.)AMD will have a chance with the RX9070 series. 50/50 chance on whether they fluff it up though.

I think the 50/50 is a little generous to AMD more like 5% chance they won't.

One leak is suggesting they are going the Nvidia route and limiting FSR to RDN4

Yeah AMD really have potential to do well here since they are competing in the mid range, announcing pricing first and will have months on Nvidia in that bracket.

Something will go wrong, I just don't know what. Sure AMD will find a way.

Hostile_18 · 2025-01-06T13:59:00+0000

If AMD do well I wonder if Nvidia will change their pricing strategy to the lower end? The 5080 can't be priced in isolation or it will eventually look terrible compared to the 5070 etc, if the latter is priced competently to match what AMD is doing.

I just hope they can get these out in volume in the next month or so. It will hopefully give them some time before the RTX5060TI and RTX5070 are released.

Hostile_18 · 2025-01-06T14:05:09+0000

Will the board partners come out with all their designs today/tomorrow as well? That's usually pretty exciting... for a geek like me lol.

I think AMD will aim at the 5070 level with nothing for the lower end leaving it to Intel.

AMD is best at kicking themselves down.

They have 2 chips iirc splitting into 2 cards each, Navi 48 and 44 so 4 cards total for their line-up.

Can't afford to give away fruit and veg in this economy.

I can't afford to eat real food, but at least I will have a 5090 so I can see in-game food that looks good enough to eat.

ChrisHonour · 2025-01-06T14:15:22+0000

I don't know why I'm so excited to see what is coming, I know it's going to cost a lot nd launch a buggy mess as everything does these days

Rdna 4 is said to have new hardware, if that's the case and the upscaling is making use of it then it wouldn't work on older cards. Might not be a case of limiting it vs the older gpu cores just can't support it due to lacking he onchip hardware.

A 5090 will:

Play games at the best settings.
Heat your room up.
Light your room up.
Keep you single.

Bargain!

Ps I've done the impossible. Brought together AMD and Nvida fans in one thread.

Peace in our time!

To be fair, have you seen what the croissants in Indiana Jones look like? Better than the local Lidl bakery ones for sure.

That Burger at the start of Resident Evil 2 remake though!

5070 will be £650-700 I could be wrong

Looking at the specs that's a massive price difference, for only a little bump with the 5080. Could well be the case though, with 5080 tactically launching first.
