I've never tried frame gen. i'm gaming at 3440x1440 and haven't found a game where I'm getting below 70-80 fps, or drastic dips, with everything maxed. I could see it being useful for 4K.

LOL ... Apple. They literally put out nothing competitive in the gaming market. Their CPU's are not designed for it. We'd all be going back to 1080p/60 gaming on $5000 Apple garbage. They're a decade away from competing with any top tier dGPU.

What? You don't want to learn all 400 move combos and need to do 32 combos in a row perfectly to defeat some of the bosses?

That's the #1 reason why I hated Ghost of Tsushima.

Exactly. This is most likely a supply chain revamp assuming they have access to more of those GDDR7 3GB chips versus the 2 GB GDDR6X chips they were using. In the end does it really matter on their bottom of the barrel card?

Interesting how when gas prices came down the price of everything remained the same. Either way, the PC market is cooked for the foreseeable future due to AI.

It won't be a gaming card. Be surprised if it even has HDMI or DP ports on it. It'll be a datacenter AI workhorse.

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion. The 9060 XT is, on average, about 25-30% faster. 1 GB of RAM difference means diddly squat.

Honestly no need for 12 GB on a 5050. It's a 1080p card, and a low end one at that. I doubt there's a scenario where it'll use all 8 GB of the existing model. It's not like this thing is running psycho textures in CP2077. I see why Nvidia is doing it. Resource consolidation. From 4x2 GB...

There are already companies in that market space. NuScale and Westinghouse lead the pack. SMR's are waiting to be deployed. Government red tape holds everything back. Realistically we won't see the first SMR go online until 2033 at the earliest. Google and Meta are pushing HARD to fast track...

Realistically AMD has a golden opportunity here to catch up if Nvidia drops the ball on consumer products.

Saw this coming. Xbox is already basically a PC.

Let us not forget the disasters that were Vega, Vega II and VII.

yeah sometime in 2023. Doesn't mean his craptacular handling of ARC isn't lingering.

I don't have faith in Intel's ability to compete at a higher level in the dGPU market. Not when Koduri had his hands in it. Everything that guy touched turned to hot dookie. I don't know who's running the GPU show for Intel now, but they've haven't really done much over the past year and a half.
