So far this gpu gen has been a disappointment on both sides for me so I hope these next announcements are good.
I can’t see how they will be. We know the performance of the high end is not a large generational improvement and they can’t compete with what they’ve already launched. That means what’s left is to release… a 7800 that performs about the same as a 6800? Wow.
All they can do is price them aggressively so that they are more appealing than the 6000 generation, but I would be shocked if they do. It hasn’t been their MO recently.
Aggressive pricing is pretty much the only thing I’m hoping for.
Keep expectations low and your disappointment will not be as large.
I’d like to upgrade my graphics card, and I’m honestly wanting effectively a 7700xt equivalent. I’d like to not spend over $500, but I’ve got a 5700XT and I don’t want to just go one generation up at this point. So I guess I wait.
Keep expectations low and your disappointment will not be as big.
I just bought a 6700xt.
Which means you are all welcome for my heroic sacrifice that has made them announce new cards.
I have the 6900xt, it’s a beast :) Had it for a year now or so.
k…?
Just happy about amd cards. They are excellent in Linux.
