AMD CES 2021 live stream

Looks like the mid range 6700xt got pushed to Q2. Emphasis is on laptops this time...

Ya she teased 6000 mobile Radeon and 6700 desktop, but nothing much else.

Basically Epyc 3 and Ryzen 3 mobile and a lot of pointless interviews.
 
pointless to us as enthusiasts not pointless to the world stage and investors. Epyc and mobile are where AMD needs to start pushing to grab market share. and showing partnerships with OEMs is a big part of that.

True, it was exciting to learn about the 5000 mobile. Will be looking at one to buy.
 
Nvidia stream right after showed the 3060 *12 gb* which makes the 3080 look stupid and the 3060ti even worse. But at least they launched something surprisingly no 3080ti...

$329 was the best part. Maybe that means we can get a 6700 for $299 or less.

Other than that, their live stream was even more boring.

more likely the 6700xt is targeting the 3060ti and if AMD is between the 3060ti and 3070 in terms of performance I would expect it to be priced in between as well. I could see a 6700 being between the 3060 and 3060 ti being priced around the 3060
 
I'm still considering a laptop. I'm truly hoping we see companies like Lenovo and Dell start taking AMD seriously in the laptop market..

It makes the 3060 12GB look stupid, there is absolutely no reason for that card to have that much VRAM!:lol:

How does a 3060 with 12GB of GDDR6 make the 3080 with 10GB of GDDR6X look stupid? :hmm:
 
I think it would be better to say it makes Nvidia look confusing. They gimped 3070 (and less extent 3080) ram size Those cards are going to need more ram than that as time goes on. But here is a mid range card with more ram than them but may never make full use of it.

Basically, they should have had more ram to begin with, especially if you are paying over 500 Mäuse.

I would not mind saying though the 3070 is pretty stupid.
 
Ya the 3070 even worse but imo the 3060 can do some gameplay at 1440p so the added ram, tho a bit more than needed, is welcome compared to the 8 gigs on the 3070.

They could have put more than 10 gb on the 3080... Its def not a good choice.

If you look at post CES interviews both Nvidia and AMD were quoting H2 2021 before GPU supply might be able to meet demand so any thoughts of a 6950XTX are pretty much dead in the water till at least Q3/Q4 if not Q1 2022. This just pushes RDNA3 further to maybe earliest end of 2022. Just my 2c's worth.
 
I doubt that I mean intel just signed up with TSMC for i3 cpus fabbed on 5nm end of this year with availability probably early 2022. Theres no way amd will be behind the ball that far.

Those are CPU's Pax AMD will be ahead of Intel at TSMC for sure for CPU's. This thread is about GPU's and they seem to be quite low on AMD's list of priorities at the moment.

:lol:

do they

how long from when TSMC makes a wafer and gives it to AMD does it take to go from wafer to GPU's to cards ? :hmm:
a month or two

sure to the point of release date they were doing mostly ps5's and xbox's so it would take some time to switch over and chips to get into cards

and no Sony and M$ won't get everything .

AMD will make it's own stuff also and Sony and M$ will just have to wait

i think next month AMD cards and CPU's will start freeing up and be fair by mid March

Its all silicon man and fabbing a gpu is not that much diff than fabbing a cpu. If intel can fab 5nm this fall for its low end cpus Im sure amd will fab its high end gpus by then as they have a deeper relationship with TSMC than intel does.

Intel is just trying to use TSMC as a short term fix. Whereas AMD is a large and growing long term customer.
