Phoenix, Valve Index, and RDNA 3 with SadlyItsBradley - Telegrams for Guests

Hi Tom and Bradley. I wanted to ask you two if there's a TDP limit or temperature output limit to your graphics card, a line that you will not cross.

Hey Tom and Bradley, Considering the high cost of the Index still to this day, do you think that Valve would have to adjust the MSRP of the Deckard and at least the entry model of its variants, as well as that of the Index to compete with the Quest 2s (and possible successors) lower MSRP? I personally always wanted to get into VR but never had the funds until recently, so im really interested in what the next generation of VR and AR devices will bring to the table.

Hi Tom and Bradley! With AMD (And apple) having a massive advantage over intel in terms of efficiency what do you think intel's response to Phoenix should be if AMD is ahead in both performance AND battery life with Phoenix and Dragon range. The laptop market is one of the few PC market segments left with decent growth and efficiency will be important for VR headsets as well if that market takes off.

Hi Tom and Bradley. What are your thoughts on Nintendo's approach to vr? Will the switch ever be able to host compelling vr experiences?

Hey Tom and Bradley, I just finished watching the two part video with Karl Guttag on Augmented Reality - great videos, really easy to understand. One thing I noticed is that a lot of the problems brought up seem to only exist or are exacerbated by trying to implement Augmented Reality on a head mounted device. In the short to medium term, could we see a split in AR development, where there's more of a mainstream adoption of AR in applications like vehicle windshields, display cases, and other non-head mounted displays, while head mounted AR doesn't exist outside of the niches where Karl identified actual use cases (military, medical, enterprise) until the issues he identified are overcome?

Hi Tom and Bradly, In a similar vein as the question to the government engineer(?) in a previous broken silicon, how do you see movement in VR evolving? Are there developments you've seen or you would like to see in that area? I hope this question is more concise than the last time and you don't need to rewrite it as much. Cheers, Gus

Hello Tom and Bradly. Have you heard the rumors that some Zen 4 CPU's might launch on AM4 with ddr4 support? Can you confirm/deny them? It sounds kinda strange to me

Hello Tom and Bradly. What do you think of the rumors of Raptor Lake hitting 6ghz? What is the ceiling on the Core Series architecture’s clock speed?

Hey Tom and Bradley. Im a big fan of you two. What do you think it'll take for VR games to have the same mainstream appeal as Call of Duty? And what place in the market do you think those big VR stores with a large amount of space and short curated VR experiences have in the future as consumer VR gets better?

With a rush if atleast vaguely compelling low end hardware, a glut of current gen GPUs and most computers still using quad core cpu's and mainly bare minimum gpus. Do you think the time will be soon or perhaps next year when people will finally give in and raise the low end up meaningfully or will it still be gtx 1060 for the next 3 years or more?
