Die Shrink 135: RTX 5000 & RDNA 4 Delays - How do we feel?
Added 2024-10-04 17:00:10 +0000 UTCSo at this point it seems almost entirely confirmed that at a minimum AMD does not presently plan to launch RDNA 4 in a meaningful way in 2024...and at the same time the Nvidia Blackwell release rumors have also been all over the place throughout the year - how do we all feel about that? Are you sad Nvidia's dragging their feet and AMD seems unwilling to launch RDNA 4 before RDNA 3 stock clears? Also just in general - how has this year felt so far?
