And you know the methology of those tests from 'metareview'? And they are clearly better? You have that certainty? Like Computerbase shown above? Definitely much better methodology. 3 basically the same benchmarks, and one crippling internally one of the tested processors. If anything the...

And 7600XT is 5% faster than 13600 K according to HU 54 games benchmark. And according to 'metareview' based on 6-8 usually the same tests it's 13600 K which is 5% faster. That's why this 'metareview' is crap. You take already distorted results (too little sample of games) and multiply them 10...

Surely not. They sank billions and billions dollars in their failed 10 nm process. Definitely more than TSMC. This is the cost intel pays for their chips. And they are sinking now another billions and billions in 7 nm and next ones (at the same time). And as long as they won't find new...

Yep. Only those two benchmarks are off. And when buggy as hell CP2077 cripples AMD processors (famous SMT OFF) and GPUs it's all fine and dandy. BTW People are more interested in BV than B2042. B2042 is almost totally non existent. It failed miserably and people returned to BV and BI. BV...

That's why gaming tests in launch reviews should be totally ignored. Unless they have a really big number of games tested (and usually it's not true due to time constraints). It's not a surprise it's actually the same what AMD said on their slides (5% faster than 12900K, and many reviews put 13...

You're right. I must have missed it. They hinted about much better clocks. Not as loud as with processors (well even Lisa was talking about it). Especially Naffziger claims are now problematic for them. Because Wang was much more reserved ('even faster' ..well they are faster but not that much)...

Perceived because maybe due to reasons of architecture they can not be clocked higher for now. If something can not be clocked higher you can not say it's clocked low. It's not the same. Because where is that limit you consider good enough? 3 GHz? Why not 5 GHz? After all CPU chips are clocked...

The best hypothesis I read. I don't think that there are any serious bugs in silicon preventing RDNA3 from clocking high. It's not like they produced million chips and it turned out it doesn't clock high. There were many samples/revisions before. RDNA3 is what it is. The perceived low clocks may...

I'm not disappointed in RDNA3 actually, but yeah due to 'leaks' I expected more. But it's not like AMD promised me something and they didn't keep a promise. Far from it. That 'leaks' had influence on my expectations is only my work, not AMD. Like I said I was never customer for 1200 card even...

AMD this time was not so strong on crypto market. Even miners preferred nVidia. GCN was much better for crypto than RDNA. But yeah AMD cards also benefited from crypto boom but nowhere near as nVidia. I doubt designing chips they were taking it into consideration prioritizing again high end...

Well.. who knows.. maybe. One of the earliest rumors were claiming that this time Navi 33 will be first launched. So no high end cards at first. Maybe something changed on the way and they decided after all to launch high end cards first (for unknown reasons). Fact is APU with the latest...

I can buy 4090 in my country, no problem. From the first launch day to current day. You know just for over 2000 EUR. Not many eager to pay. Anecdotal? Yes. True? Either. If this is nVidia's plan for business they are doomed (joking).

DLSS 3 is pure crap (any technology giving such horrible artifacts is crap). If anyone cares better buy TV with this 'revolutionary' technology. It will be cheaper and works on every game from start. Either way your latency goes to hell so who cares. CUDA are worthless on gaming cards because...

No. Simply no. 4090 was not held back by anything. It's a 4K. Any modern processor is enough. If processor is slower it's slower for both cards. Not for one. You can even compare data for the same games on both sides. Let's look at them. Game TPU benchmark - 6950 XT/4090 (5800X)...

Actually it works in the other way. It is only more profitable if AMD has costs in let's say EUR. And that's only if you don't take into consideration that those costs will be higher due to inflation also. And I doubt there are many costs they pay in EUR. So strong $ means only one thing for AMD...
