5800X is pushing it as the 3800X was already too much for 8 cores. At this pricing for gaming only, it makes more sense to go Intel as they are at least getting another upgrade on the same chipset... I mean the 5900X and 5600X are fine pricing-wise vs Intel but I do not get the 5800X pricing.

The first retail expansion for the XBSX is 1TB for ~$220 which is pretty much standard for PCIe 4.0 drives.

I'm concerned about the liquid metal and how it will age.

I 100% agree that it is on NVIDIA for not gathering supply up for months before launch but you can't blame it on knowledge of previous launches. NVIDIA has more supply than the 20 series and the 20 series didn't have this demand issue. They expected and supplied more than the 20 series and the...

Console sales will be in the millions in the first few months but really can't be compared to $700+ and $1500+ graphics cards. There is more supply than 20 series cards and way more demand. I don't remember anywhere the outrage when you couldn't buy a 3900X for months. The 30 series hasn't...

From what I understand, they have sold 10s of thousands of 30 series cards and it seems to many like they have sold none as they sell out instantly. It is insane that demand is so incredibly high right now. And it isn't even 30 series cards. It is a seller's market right now.

I feel this is more of a limit peaks issue than a 'throttle' issue. Likely a combination of Boost 5.0 and the slightly worse power delivery. I expect to see negligible performance difference from the change except increased stability for those that were having issues.

If this is true, it looks like up to double the performance of the 5700XT which is a very large leap for AMD. Should trade blows with the 3080 if everything scales well.

I trust that the official reference design is the XC3 Black which is mixed. I believe this issue is likely a case of AIBs cheaping out on components/design. Hopefully a new vbios can fix it.

There are rendering techniques I hope they implement to optimize things but I'm glad they are releasing a mode that will push hardware to the breaking point just because. DLSS should also be killer when it's in.

I installed Fortnite to look into the card and it's barely anything. No heatpipes, etc. Just fins, shroud, fans, and a backplate.

Really the only thing that can be assumed about AMD's new GPUs is their stated 50% performance per watt improvement. Unless they are underselling RDNA2 to their investors (I highly doubt it), performance can be inferred from that. The only unknowns are how well it scales and how much power...

It depends on the rest of the system. If the 3090 is 350W stock, overclocked it will likely be able to use 20%-30% more So just the GPU using up to 450 watts in that scenario.

For $699, it's a very compelling purchase for top competitive gamers. Hopefully it is well calibrated from the factory. I think $599 would probably be the sweet spot but as it's the 'best' and it's less than I paid for my PG278Q in 2015 ($800)

It doesn't make sense - I bet NVIDIA is feeding misinformation. If the entire lineup has RTX support, then there will be no 16x0 series. So the lineup needs to shift down - not up. 3050, 3050Ti, 3060, 3060Ti, 3070, 3070 with double RAM, 3080, 3080 with double RAM, 3090 I'm gonna guess...

4K Ultra with a 2080Ti = 40-50fps 4K Low with a 2080Ti = 50-60fps Game does not scale well at all

@Brent_Justice Page 3 edit 3rd to last paragraph - If the XFX Radeon RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra beats the RTX 2070 we know it will wipe the floor with the -----RTX 2070 SUPER-----. Should be 2060 Great review

The 3dmark talking point is not using the iGPU of the 3400g - it is using a 2080ti so it is impossible to compare even with the TDP differences.

The only segment nvidia is competing with themselves is the super high end $700+ segment. The largest benefit of such an improvement to ray tracing performance is going to be on the low-mid end and nvidia wants those cards to be extremely attractive for buyers. The largest question is going to...
