Well, it was nice … having hope, I mean. That was a good feeling.

    I’ll wait and see what they come out with. If I wanted to buy AMD, I’d just get a 7600 XT for $360 or so.

    I’ve already got 3 Nvidia cards, so I’d need a real incentive from AMD to switch.

    How about you?

      I went from a 1080ti to a 6900xt during the pandemic when I found EKWB selling cards at MSRP. With Nvidia’s pricing and availability issues, I don’t see myself going back anytime soon.

      So? Are you saying that you are pot committed 3 cards in? How many cards do you run in each rig?

      If half the price can’t convince you, you aren’t ready to switch no matter what.

        Fair enough. I’ve got a 3060 and 4060ti installed, and I need to buy a new PSU to power up a 1080ti externally.

        I think the only thing I use that requires CUDA is Daz Studio, and I’m actually starting to lose interest in that.

        The thing about Radeon is it’s not just less money, it’s also less performance, plus more work to set up. I bought a Radeon laptop just so I could try ROCm. It works, but it’s no walk in the park. And when you’re done, you don’t get any benefit over using Nvidia. If AMD at least gave us more VRAM, that would be something.
