The RDNA 2 vs Ampere generation featured the 6900 XT vs the 3090 in a really competitive showdown.

The RDNA 3 vs Ada generation sees AMD compete really strongly everywhere except the very very top. The 7900 XTX is cheaper and faster at raster than the 4080 and 4080 Ti in most cases (with worse efficiency and RT), for instance. You can make a competitive argument for either company at each pricing segment except Nvidia below $200 and AMD at the very very top.

That's a farrrr cry from "the 8700 XT competes with the 5070, but past that there's no AMD card"

It's reminiscent of the RDNA 1 vs Turing, where the 6700 XT and 2070 were competitive but AMD had no answer for the 2080, let alone the 2080 Ti, except this time it'll be more obvious since they'll be a 5090 as well.

Mastodon. The people are kinda weird, in different ways than I am weird, but if I post consistently enough I'll build a community or something. I bounce between there and Twitter cause neither community is 100% satisfying

MBin, cause I want to be able to access Lemmy without being on Lemmy

The issue i think is that it reinforces the belief that Nvidia cards are faster and that AMD cards are cheap/budget,

AMD cards being just as fast (besides RT) with good/better value is one thing, but AMD being slower is a harder misconception to unravel

Do we have any reasonable/substantive speculation about why they canceled the bigger die in the 8000 series?

I think it's hard to formulate a response to this. That man dissected his entire vibe and history and insecurities

This? This the shit i was waiting for. Scorched earth, "burn the city down with you in it" typa shit.

Hell yeah.

So many bars to deconstruct and analyze

That's what i thought you meant. Thanks!

in my case, the diaspora didn't change me so much as it displaced me.

Now I'm here and there. Much like Twitter and Masto where i do more content viewing on the legacy site where there's more content, but more posting on the FOSS alternative because of ideological imperative to see it grow even if its content doesn't serve me (yet?)

Actually, I'm kind of curious:

What do you mean "because of the nature of the reddit migration?"

Awesome! Thank you! Now i gotta go back thru my physical/hoopla/libby collection and figure out where i fell off

What makes everything after the Lives/Deaths of Wolverine worse?

What do you mean by "actively surpressing a community?"

Do you have any articles on the origin of Reddit? It came out of Digg, right?

Hell yeah. Finally some gaming news i care about.

If you listen closely you can hear every Ryu main preparing to drop him like a hit rock. We'll see if Ken and Luke mains persevere

He looks scary enough but I'm curious how he'll end up feeling to fight against as a Marisa main.

They appear to have nailed the vibe/aesthetic though. That new Raging Demon looks excellent.
