I know they will. They HAVE to.. or lose all cred. Despite my certainty that Steve/HUB is balls deep in the AMD camp, he has to maintain some semblance of credibility to be effective with his site/channel.

Its funny people still believe that even though he has been fair to both brands. That cant be said for many nvidia biased channels like Digital Foundry. They'll probably have sponsored review i can imagine they cant say anything bad.

People - "NV should be more like AMD and release mid range cards with plenty of VRam". RX 7600XT - "Hold my beer"

I got my RX6600XT for 250 second hand 3 months old from the launch date from an early adopter, the guy was not happy with its overclock capability.. Its a very good card for 1080p and ticks all boxes for me.

Oh dear Oh dear. It looks like NVidia's attempt to recondition the market to higher prices is actually working on some of the not so bright in our community and so I will get my coat. see yer around guys it was good whilst it lasted. 🙁 BaarrH 😀

Which should be a very clear indicative of the most likely MSRP of the card, no less than 400 USD. A lot of reviewers and not brainwashed fanboys are (we) about to get a reality check of how far scum capitalists are willing to push the milking to customers. 400 maybe for the OEM versions, and 400+ for custom cards have no doubt about it. Call me pesimistic, doomer, apathetic or w/e insult, but they are not slowing down at any rate any time soon, they will rather creat a false scarcity than going back to prepandemic prices, even less not making record profits year after year. So embrace for another wave of stagnation reviews and super mediocre sideway gpu.

Capitalism is awesome, you should try it, then you can buy a 4090 rather than complain about the price of scrub cards.

Oh, very philosophical. As long as we're living in a system that's basically capitalism with more or less other stuff added and attached, you can choose between the red and the blue pill. Because in capitalism, for one to gain, another always has to lose. So choose which one you want to be. And if you don't want to be the one to play such a game, move somewhere with another system. Although those countries and areas might not be to one's liking either, since they usually don't come with the best infrastructure. So, what are the best? Will it best the 4060 for less money? AMD could really score a big win here, but honestly, if Intel does keep it's (low but steady) momentum growing, I could imagine they take this segment of the market (at least until 2025 when the next generations seem to come around apparently).

As are all forms of governance, but in all the countries I've lived and worked in, the most stable are those that facilitate capitalism

But all capitalist countries with a stable economy, have anti monopoly rules. Even the USA.

Just as well, or we would all be hooked up in a Matrix run by Microsoft. Imagine that, Agent Smith constantly having to reboot to install updates and never being able to link to a printer.

They would make us pay for the subscription while they use our heat for energy, I'm fairly sure. I guess that's why in the Matrix people still go to work, to pay for subscriptions.
