True that. I'm sure we can all, at least this one time, forgive the software guys at AMD for not recognizing that there are idiots out there who "hot swap" their gpus.
I think that if nvidias' goal in this was to get more focus on RT. Job done.
It can't be pleasant for them there watching their $1500 behemoth being bested and matched in raster performance at 1440p and below by something less than half it's price. They have to detract from that - or at least...
Poor old Wizzard has no luck with AMD has he? Everything from getting the slowest ryzens on the planet to the slowest radeons for review, he also has to deal with a piece of software(NOT DRIVERS) that won't disable itself when he doesn't bother to uninstall hardware properly. Hard luck...
Triple digit fps in those titles shown, do you have anything that is borderline unplayable because of said dx11 driver woes? I'm sure if anything new comes out dx11, the performance will be were it needs to be.
AMD were not expecting to sell too many of these to begin with because they genuinely thought nvidia would have come out a bit better than they did. Nvidia themselves would have known the competition was coming much stronger than before. I'm guessing both IHVs didn't commit as many wafers to...
Pretty sure these 6800s are faulty/defective die that don't make the cut as XTs or 6900s. I seriously doubt they're cutting fully functional die to get these and IF they are, it goes to explain the $50 too high price tag.
What chance that there's some built in redundancy here, that this is actually an 88 or 96 CU chip? Something to meet the Ti card that nvidia will surely drop in the coming months.
What's more likely, a defective chunk of memory controller or a defective cache? Maybe the additional costs of going cache route are offset by better yields? Either way, I'm pretty sure they ran the numbers, this change would have have been in the works long enough for them to know if it's...
Everyone is an expert when it comes to what AMD should or should not do....
But whatever! They simply cannot continue bankrolling you if they are to remain competitive and grow, especially where they offer the superior product.
