I would've thought it was from their over 80% market share.All the weight is from Jensens big black jacket.

We know what AMD are releasing, a 7700XT renamed as a 7800XT as the real one got renamed to a 7900XT and price jacked so don't expect it to be much faster than a 6800XT as it will likely have just 60CUsI will critique my own point of view a little - The problem is that we haven't seen what AMD has to offer in the mid/high end yet.
They aren't rushing to release the '7700XT' and '7800XT', which are likely to be (more) desirable in terms of value. A delay seems quite possible.
The 6700 XT and other cheaper cards didn't arrive until months after the initial RDNA2 launch - Unfortunately, this is simply the norm now.
My optimism partly comes from the success of GPUs like the 6700XT... If AMD can offer similar value again, then we may see some real competition in the graphics market again. Apparently, this was one GPU that did appear in reasonable quantities
But, the shortfall of mass produced mid range cards is still a massive problem - it could be that AMD is still focusing on console GPU production?? Where RDNA2 is still sufficient (and cheaper to produce ofc).
AMD too is fond of marketing and gimmicks in a similar vein - I haven't really discussed that because their marketing simply hasn't had the same affect on customers.

I don't. Why would it be?We know what AMD are releasing, a 7700XT renamed as a 7800XT as the real one got renamed to a 7900XT and price jacked so don't expect it to be much faster than a 6800XT as it will likely have just 60CUs
Have we?
I know, why do they have to make stuff better?This all smacks of going back to 1997 and complaining about these fancy new 3d accelerators. Why couldn't they just keep making the VGA graphics cards we'd had for years, rather than driving up the cost with this new 3d acceleration stuff?
You don't need RT to play games, it's a nice looking cinematic effect. You do need a GPU capable of dx9/dx10/dx12 3D acceleration (or vulkan/opengl), for all but the most basic of games.This all smacks of going back to 1997 and complaining about these fancy new 3d accelerators.

Twas a joke.I would've thought it was from their over 80% market share.
I think it's pretty clear to all that the 7900XT should have really been called a 7800XT and sold for cheaper than its $900 price but unfortunately AMD have decided to follow on from nvidia rather than use an aggressive price to performance strategy to win over marketshare.I don't. Why would it be?
The 7700XT should be approx. 50% faster than the 6700XT (50% improvement is the target for the whole generation I think). That would put it roughly where the 6800 XT is.
The only way they will manage >50% performance improvement in 3D graphics, is jacking up the power consumption for the higher end models. I would guess they will need to overclock a lot (beyond 3ghz?), which is probably gonna be something the refresh GPUs can handle.
All a sudden when new cards arrive we get sponsored games or "tech demos" showcased that don't work so well on the older cards so you need to go out and pay more for the new ones and then 2 years later suddenly those cards then seemingly become rubbish on the next crop of sponsored titles.This all smacks of going back to 1997 and complaining about these fancy new 3d accelerators.

It's a lateral move, because RT at the moment always reduces framerate. Why do they have to go sideways?I know, why do they have to make stuff better?
"At the moment", things takes time, always have, how do you think everything else got to where it is?It's a lateral move, because RT at the moment always reduces framerate. Why do they have to go sideways?
Some evolutionary dead-ends, a complicated series of events leading to bipedal, furless, talking apes, followed by quite a lot of arbitrary decisions, the invention of currency? Feudalism then lead to hordes of console peasants. Then the golden age of mere mortals transcending into members of the PC master Race? There's too many things to list reallyhow do you think everything else got to where it is?
And you don't think there was ever a sideways step in any of that that lead to something better eventually?Some evolutionary dead-ends, a complicated series of events leading to bipedal, furless, talking apes, followed by quite a lot of arbitrary decisions, the invention of currency?

Crabs. Good at sideways stepping. Crabs and crab like creatures have evolved multiple times in Earth's history - It's a good design it seems.And you don't think there was ever a sideways step in any of that that lead to something better eventually?
