    Yes exactly. It was definitely a low point for Intel. They got caught out for running absolutely exotic cooling with huge power requirements. So funny :ROFLMAO: @GoldenTiger it is hilarious you have such bad memory in regards to this event that...

    They are down for NV and AMD, market share has remained stable globally. NV's reporting on it's earnings have always been somewhat "creative" on the gaming desktop category. Still seeing huge purchasing impacts from the Coof buying spree...

    Maybe but supposedly even the 4060 series is near impossible to find in China. https://m.ithome.com/html/760492.htm For those not fluent it basically claims Nvidia is holding back the supply of mid and low-end cards to keep prices inflated as...

    I think Intel tried a little too hard to press their chips to the max and now they are paying the price. I think the transistors are getting down to such a small size that they now degrade far faster when pushed with more voltage. Same thing AMD...

    Sounds more like panic buying when the ban when into place, would be curious if that still is going on. I know the Chinese mostly wanted to get a 4090 for the AI capabilities which the 7000 series would not be as suitable for. I just think it's a...

    Yep total shipments are way down for both, thus why the total market share matters here. I mean your own chart show Nvidia shipments dropping to their lowest point in 2023. I have the feeling margins are not great for graphic cards, even EVGA...

    I love how some just throw things out like that, have any actual proof of said statement?
  • Gideon
    Yet reports are otherwise. Nvidia still dominates sales but AMD has taken some market share back...

    AMD may have reduced their allotment to an unsustainable level. But unless the company comes out and tells us why, were just speculating and the title was clickbait as even in the article they had no answers.

    Gideon reacted to LukeTbk's post in the thread RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation with Like Like.
    There 2 main option, they can do like they did with Ampere Samsung 8nm for the gaming product, TSMC 7NM for the commercial product. They can do like what all the rumors seem to point out, launch the AI chips before the gaming product having a...

    That is a ton smaller then the 47.5 billion they made on other products, like AI chips. What would you do when you are facing a capacity strained TSMC and need to pick a priority on what to produce?
  • Gideon
    Talk of new cards coming is probably going to make people hold off, plus the 4090 is still not a cheap card even used. Hopefully you find that person in need OP.

    Higher thermal efficiency does not necessarily translate into a cleaner running engine. Just means it's turning more of the heat into useable power.

    The super 4080's definitely sold, buy the regular 4080's never really sold well. But I just think the upcoming 5000 series will likely lack the performance to really push anyone to upgrade except the few that have to have the best, especially at...

    I feel a 5080 priced over 1,000 bucks will be a dust collector for retailers, sort of like the current 4080. Honestly I was a bit surprised how well the 4090 sold, so that may still do well at a higher price. Profit is far more important to the...

    Gideon replied to the thread RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation.
    I am a little less convinced they care about the consumer market as much right now, considering what their AI chips sell for at the moment. Will they give up on it, no. But I feel their focus is elsewhere and I think generational performance...

    Gideon replied to the thread RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation.
    Seen no rumors that suggest that is happening. Could it, sure. But with no info stating major core changes then, I don't expect much from the next chip. If more info come to light then my thoughts may change.

    Gideon replied to the thread RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation.
    You do know they didn't rely on a node shrink for that. That took a significant core design change.
  • Gideon
    Gideon replied to the thread RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation.
    I find that unlikely unless they do more then a small node shrink. You just are not getting the same gains out of the shrinking nodes. I would be surprised if they eek out much more then a 25% uplift, unless they are doing more then just relying...
