Soooo... the chip/card is basically ready.
And still more than 1 month away from availability.
Which can only mean one thing:
Drivers still suxxorz.
But at least they are giving themselves time to iron out the bugs, so the story on the Navi (1) black screen and such doesn't repeat.
Hopefully smooth launch !

oh my this is going to be a fun next few months.

Well, i cant wait to see the benchmarks. By the looks of it, at least one card gets near 3080 performance. If the price is right and it has more Vram i'll go red team. My wallet is ready and to be honest i am happy i didnt get a 3080. Good things come to those who wait.

No it could be they don't want same problem as nvidia with card stock and AIB issue

I would assume it's more to do with having actual product to send to vendors, unlike their competition.

the benchmarks they presented showed its 10% slower than RTX 3080 (which means its probably less).... I dont know if they got any RT acceleration but since it could be their first card with it its probably much much behind the current RTX cards....
Bottom line - over hyped and nothing impressive here....
theoneofgod
Without a price?
Goiur
We dont even know the exact card.. 6700, 6800 or 6900...
wavetrex
I'm actually quite impressed by 10% behind 3080
... considering that their last card is 44% behind 3080
That's quite a jump Y2Y !
But of course, price will decide if it's worth it. And I have a strong feeling it will (even if just slightly)... And the 16GB will probably give it longer lifetime inside the computer.
You might be right.
Serotonin
Agreed. It's a huge jump over their last gen and it sits in a nice position just below the 3080. Depending on price, I will get one. If this is the performance I am happy with it.
Serotonin
Well..considering they made the standard for ray-tracing on the consoles I would assume the performance regarding that would be solid.

OR, they just dont wanna make the same mistake that NV did. Making a rushed release with low amount VGA-s available on stock, and even those are untested and crashing...

The top card , 6900 , still respectable performance as the price will make it a good value .
Goiur
Nope, they said nothing about it... just 6000 series.
edit: Lisa held the "big navi", but the performance demo they showed said nothing about exact card.

Over hyped? Who exactly has been hyping it? In practical terms, I have witnessed zero hype for it. AMD hasn't been able to keep the lid on it as well as Nvidia (which cost Nvidia a lot due to the partners being unable to test their products properly), but there's still no hype that I can see. AMD itself has barely said anything about the product, aside from the scattered lines that they want to return to the enthusiast sphere once again. In fact there wasn't that much concrete hype for Ampere either because nobody knew anything about it, barely even the name Ampere. Sure, lots of people were looking forward to it, but that's hardly hype. It seems to me AMD learned the harsh lesson with that computer card VII. After all, the first Navi wasn't hyped either. AMD never pretended it would be more than mainstream.

The being 10% slower than 3080 is what disappoints me a bit too, I was hoping for at least matching performance on the 6900(XT?). Ofcourse it may not be the 6900, but since the 6700 is supposedly matching 2080Ti speeds, I'm guessing it's not that one either.
At least the showed card is nearly twice as fast as the 5700XT/Radeon VII, in 4K, so not all hope is yet lost, but since AMD apparently wasn't impressed by the 3090's performance, I kind of expected more...
I'll probably get one anyway. ESPECIALLY if it's (much) cheaper (and better obtainable) than the 3080. Because it's more than twice as fast as my Vega 64.

I feel it would kill the RDNA2 announcement if they've already shown us the performance of their top tier card. I think they would want to surprise us here. Maybe? Price though. Need a price.

Guru3d review showed 3080 gears 5 at 76fps not 81fps.

Do you really expect them to show their hand in a preview, how about this that was the lowest tier card, how would that work in your world?
