Die Shrink 135 (Video): 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?

33:20 Blackwell pricing is not going to be good
42:00 Do we really need more performance in the high end? Why are we still in 5nm for GPUs?

I'm sure you guys will talk about Arrow Lake on the next one. I just saw 1) the performance regression/stagnation 2) that the guy in Intel's presentation video said something like "we lower power consumption to give us headroom for the future" I am worried about the second one, as if Arrow Lake Refresh doesn't have architectural improvements, it'll just be 300W again (hopefully without grilling the ring bus). Why would Intel foreshadow using more power in the future?
