The thread which sometimes talks about RDNA2

Right I see now, thanks @pugheaven

Nice use of the feature pug, if it works for you great.

I love it mate, I think it's been the most under used piece of software ever from AMD, it's astonishing what it does when off and on... what is weird, AMD didn't really show this off and never understood why... so if you can, say well done to AMD for me hahaha as it's allowed me running way faster and better quality graphics than the 5700xt should've ever allowed tbh. Blew DLSS1.0 into the weeds and never really got the credit it deserved.

Sharp, crisp image is one thing i miss about the 5700XT.

Ah feels so good to live in Europe ( not ). Why does US get 1 week extra to play with the shinies?

Im waiting for my already paid ps5 and demon souls to come but guess my money wasnt kosher enough to get it on the 12th...

Also, i guess they failed on the ‘Gpus will come out before the new consoles’ part. Or might be true still for EU. But 1 day difference only? Lol.

Bizarrely I got a controller and Demon souls today but have to wait a week for the console, from the same shop. No idea why they wouldn't just ship it all together.

Stores often part ship things according to availability, there's nothing bizzarre about it.

I think he means strange they wouldn't wait till it was all in stock and ship together after all it is saving them money?

Yes, it's obvious what he meant and it doesn't change my answer. Some stores, for whatever economic or business reasons, part ship.

I think it's psychological. People are les likely to cancel their order if they have at least received something.

I think you should know by now its happened 2/3 times.

Find out time.
5 minutes before keep refreshing
website dies
curse and swear
finally order 2 hours later to find 400th in queue.

How can you expect it to be any different this time ?

I didn't bother in the nvidia run in the end

It also makes cancellations tricky I imagine, I'm not sure you can cancel an order if its part shipped already.

You can still return the unopened items under the normal return policy.

At least you've got the superior video memory compression though.

He totally is.

I still find it bizarre as there is no use for these items in isolation. It's just costing them double delivery costs.

Lol. Yeah, I should take this junk out of my PC and put my RX 580 back in

Sell is a strong word in todays climate - offer an opportunity to pre-order is more appropriate I feel

And then sell that pre-order for a vastly inflated price on eBay "pre-order confirmed". Yes apparently thats a thing now.

He's referring to Pug's RIS post on the previous page I believe
