Seeing how you haven't responded yet, I've given you and anybody else Fact Based Info.
Fanboy Devil? Lol I ain't a fanboy, I'm a FACTS Boy. I don't just spew Crap out just because I want to Ya Know. Lol

FYI I own 2 Nvidia GPUs on 2 other PCs I have but use my RX580 8GB for Gaming on my MAIN PC.. Yes the Radeon on my Main PC. Lol

Wow such fun facts you gave, now check out this vid:

Der8auer confirmed that AIB 2080 Ti failure rates are within normal range, according to retailer Caseking. Seems like Nvidia itself is not doing a good job QA for their FE model. AIB models are doing fine. I bought an Asus 2080 Ti turbo for myself and a Gigabyte 2080 Ti Gaming for a friend since dec 2018 and both are running fine (Micron RAM).

Back to topic: MSI Ventus 1660Ti is 2.5 times more efficient than RX 590 lol, wondering what kinda voodoo magic can AMD put into Navi to close that much of an efficiency gap.

Well your the time lord, why don't you tell us?

Fact is Turing brings plenty of goodies to the table while AMD shrink turkeys:

Vega also brought some cool features in its architecture but no one was willing to use them, because they don't have the marketshare. NVIDIA does. So you see Radeon is between a rock and a hard-place. (I am of course talking about NGG Fast Path + Primitive Shaders, and 2x FP16). Now that Nvidia finally caught up to feature parity with GCN5, maybe that latter one will get some more use

Thanks for that laugh of the day.

Radeon is really competitive, and when you consider budget vs budget (just like Ryzen) they are doing pretty well actually. It's just unfortunate that many people choose GeForce over Radeon when Radeon offers a better solution (RX 570, V56 are examples in current lineup) because the brand isn't as strong. But yes I do admit that in the high-end from 2070 upwards Nvidia is pretty much competing with themselves. I don't really like the Radeon VII, and i do believe that RTX 2080 is a better gaming graphic card but both are overpriced IMO.

Navi, or the next-gen architecture (Arcturus?) from Radeon should bring them back to the top with regards to feature set. Hopefully, as i said, now that Nvidia has caught up, maybe devs will start using them instead of re-hashed DX11 engines that favour Pascal and prior gens

Polaris 30 is pushed right out of its efficiency zone, TU116 is not. Turing is nowhere near 2.5x as efficient when both are in their sweetspots. (But yes, Nvidia is still more efficient).

I don't know why team AMD is commenting so hard here, do you folks have inferiority complex or what is going on?
