I know it's really a major dumb down, but we could see the equivalent of Atari ET followed by a future Nintendo/16-bit event regarding all of this. By the time AI crap cools down there could be someone entering the vacuum created by these idiots to fill the space they left behind.
That's pretty much what I'm thinking is happening as well. I wish it were not the case, but too many factors are pointing in that direction, and that's why I went all in with the current flagship offerings. Ought to be good enough for more than a few years to come, and by then, I'm pretty sure...
Pretty much what I paid for my first one when I got it as part of a boutique PC that became my launch point for getting into AM5. That rig was maybe $100-200 over the parts it had, which also included 9800X3D, 32 GB DDR5 6000 MT/s. A month or so later managed to trade in an EVGA 3090 Ti to...
Another Consumer Electronics Show has come to an end, but this one will stand out regarding products that never made their expected debut.

I agree.
By the time AMD is ready, who knows how high VRAM costs will be, and now that NV has their fingers into Intel, the likelyhood they'll ever make something that can compete is getting closer to nill.
May not be this year or next, but it sure feels like the writing on the wall is getting...
Sad part is that unless ram prices go down, which is not happening anytime soon, we'll have the worst scenario; no improvement with price increases. At some point, NVIDIA is going to have to raise prices on the current product stack because it can't obtain VRAM for them indefinitely at whatever...
Already posted on this a little while ago.

It's rare and I haven't had the time to test a lot of games yet but I have seen a few games hitting the 18 GB mark at 1440p. Usually requires extreme settings to get there with RT and everything else maxed plus MFG x3. However, like I said and we all know, 16 GB is still plenty for most games at...
I'd say it could happen if it were not for the RAM debacle, but never say never. I basically already have one in my laptop except some very, very, slightly lower core counts and can vouch that the 5080 uses it when it can. It's kind of stupid that NV didn't segment the 5080 more out of the gate...
