Ah I see, that old chestnut. So it wasn't me who felt underwhelmed by the 5000 series Ryzen and in particular think the 5600 is a piss take? £110 more than a 3600. If I am a fanboy where are all of my AMD GPUs? I will tell you - I don't have any because they were total crap. Bit hard being a blatant fanboy when you run three rigs and every single one of them has a Turing in it eh? bit telling that. The Vega I had would only run at stock clocks. Which was fine, but these stock clocks were lower than advertised. If I tried to overclock it by 50mhz it would pink screen. I put it in a vertical riser and it refused to work (probably because it was pulling so much juice through the PCIE lanes) and so on. Don't even get me started on Fury X in Crossfire with 4gb of "It's fine it'll be more than enough !" HBM VRAM. The problem is that any one who dares criticise anything gets a label. Kinda like what you are doing now. I couldn't give a toss who makes what really. £ to perf. Without it sucking down over 300w is always a bonus. I didn't even touch Ryzen until March of this year. Not one single CPU. Why? because of the issues I had heard about. And I do, openly, hate Intel, so again that says a lot I think. Ampere is a poor release with an even worse launch. If you can't see that then maybe you need to apply some labels to yourself huh.
I didn't say a word about you and AMD GPUs, you just pulled that out of your arse. The 3080 is cheaper, faster and more power efficient than the 2080TI, if you can't acknowledge those facts that is on you. And when it comes to availability, yes you are displaying blatant fanboy like behaviour with your repeated completely unsubstantiated claims that Samsung suckage is to blame when it could just as easily be the fault of Nvidia for not having ordered more chips in the first place.
Clearly you have some sort of hard on for TSMC made GPUs. This is due to your irrational hatred of Samsung made GPUs.
*sigh* 850 posts.. we were doing soooo well. Oh, fuq it, in for a penny... Hitler! Hitler! You're all nazis!!!!111
He had been pushing the unproven myth of Samsung somehow sucking at GPU manufacturing long before that, I refer you to post #125: https://forums.bit-tech.net/index.php?threads/nvidia-3xxx-series-thread.377254/page-7#post-4833040
It's neither. BTW pls don't tell any one I visit TSMC every other week and meet the CEO behind the bike sheds.
7nm is the smallest trace that can be constructed but, as debauers video shows, it doesn't mean things are made at that scale as Ryzen CPU's are actually made at more like 10 or 12nm...
Except the density of the 5700 XT which supposedly uses the TSMC "7" nm node is actually 41 MT / mm² which is a far cry from 65. Yes, the GA100 has a 65 density, but then that isn't a consumer product unlike the GA102 or Navi 10, so price doesn't matter etc.
Well, we've seen no real info from Big Navi other than one unknown model being a little slower than a 3080 in three games chosen by AMD, so as you say: Going to have to wait for end of the month.
In general if Intel had got 10nm on time AMD would be dead and buried. at last check Apple owns most of the 7nm wafers tsmc produce. So even if AMD have access to it will be limited quantities. Assuming 65Mt is the cap and AMD are only aiming at 41 that’s a pretty sizeable amount under which I guess is costs
