I bought a 6800XT in 2021 then sold it in 2023 for half its value. When I looked at time that was the same thing that would have applied to a 3080 10GB or the Ti model so again i'm not sure about this selling for peanuts. I haven't lost any money on my resales and value drops naturally as the cards age. And if the demand was low I wouldn't have been able to sell any of my cards they were sold literally 1 week after I posted my ads.

I'm someone that spends more than $500 on GPU's and they have all been radeons there is no way to quantify most people do without actually sales data.


I remember this video and its flaws.

Guy is comparing a AIB 7900XTX vs a FE 4080 instead of a reference 7900XTX that alone makes the comparison moot.

if you are going to compare it has to be AIB vs AIB and reference vs reference. I'm pretty sure I even left a comment on that video when I saw it years ago.
Yeah you saw and commented on a 1 year old video, years ago :laugh: Sounds legit.

You are in full denial mode :laugh: Do you also refuse to believe that AMD is doing bad in the GPU space?

That video came out in july 2023 so its over a year old. And nobody needs to be in denial mode for facts that he is comparing an AIB model to a reference card.

You can continue doing your thing I understand why LittleBro choose to ignore the rest of your post and I shall do the same Peace!

So 1 year and a few months is several years? Makes sense.

Keep denying facts, no-one really cares. AMD is losing GPU marketshare quarter for quarter, that is reality. Accept it.

I like how you are focusing on the time frame instead of the actual message.

which would indicate to me you know you are wrong and just deflecting now.

AIB vs Reference you Accept it you are allowing your personal bias to blind you from that fact.

Your argument is weak and you are not honest enough to continue this discussion move on.

So, they went from GCN to RDNA because they couldn’t do “best of both worlds” and had to optimize the arch separately, and now they are going back again????

I have heard that the issue with AMD splitting RDNA and CDNA is that it split their workforce too much (AMD still isn't nearly as big as Nvidia or Intel) so bringing both teams together may actually help with resource allocation at AMD.

There is no message only a fanboy denying facts.

It is not a coincidence that 99% of professional / competitive gamers use Nvidia and not AMD. Many use AMD CPU but close to none use AMD GPU.

Can it be that the rendering pipeline in RDNA is replaced with compute shaders and thus the multiprocessing architecture can be unified.
Maybe the mistake was not to realise that this was possible earlier than they thought.
