Official RTX 30x0 thread

You're avoiding the question, that's ok.

i don't know

neither side gives us full numbers

at a guess

if it is just the most video cards only most likely NV sold a lot more
and a lot went to mining

if it's profits then most likely AMD

add up PS5 and Xbox CPU's & GPU's then video cards were only a small part of their TSMC chips

but there was more than 34 million TSMC consoles chips

According to data disclosed by Mercury Research, AMD sold approximately 1 million Ryzen 5000 CPUs in the last quarter of 2020

https://www.hardwaretimes.com/1-mil...ata disclosed by,consoles in the same quarter.

couldn't find a total CPU sales numbers

AMD Ryzen CPU Market Share Grew for 7th Straight Quarter in Q4 2021, GPU Revenue More than Doubled

i think they both did damn well this gen

4080 better be much faster (tho I think the 4090 will be first out the gate) for that TBP rating vs previous gen:

25-30% just wont cut it and 800w is just too much. I expect undervolting will be even more important than what we've done so far. FWIW leaks are quite a bit higher in the 60%+ range.

Little news on navi 31 tho. Not sure itll be that much cooler.

AD102-450 GPU With 18176 Cores, 48 GB "24 Gbps" GDDR6X Memory & 800W TBP

:lol:

that is not going to be a gaming card or priced as one
full on Titan pricing .
 
Nvidia's last card beat AMD to market by 3 months and had the same raster performance despite running at lower clock frequencies. It had the same transistor count plus on board RT and Tensor cores on top. It did all of this on an inferior samsung node and only used 10 watts more power while running 10C lower operating temps.

New radical ultra dense PCB design
Faster VRAM
More VRAM
Bigger memory bus
Larger Memory throughput
faster Ray Tracing
superior up-scalling DLSS
Competitive raster performance
innovative founder's edition cooling solution

They built a better card despite the handicap and as such they had higher demand and sold more cards and made more money. Both crypto and gaming was Nvidia dominated. That is the way things have went every single time since ATI was purchased. The Nvidia high end cost more and the mainstream was competitive. I would say they did a great job. Only problem was the chip shortage which hit both companies and despite that and the higher demand Nvidia continued to have better availability and better sales. No point being stubborn about reality.

Imho,


I think Amd did innovate as well; SAM and Infinity Cache are efficient abilities which improvers performance watt, too.

My constructive nit-pick has been their gaming ecosystem and noticed that they're working hard with FSR 1.0 and with a Global setting ability; FSR 2.0, bringing more performance for DirectX 11; hopefully bring broadcast abilities. Having the majority of gaming consoles' hardware is not enough to convince PC gamers to buy -- PC gamers/owners desire PC experiences.

Nvidia is a handful, they just don't stop -- AMD has resources and talent -- and can compete.
 
Yeah, it's confusing! I'm surprised at the sheer growth of Nvidia laptops - the RTX 3060 laptop has more of a Steam percentage than the desktop Rtx 3060. Gaming laptops are getting popular.

I think we can "thank" the miners for this oddity.
