I dont think we will see mid range from either side this year in terms of actual launch. We may get a 3070 level card this year but I even doubt that to be honest. I think we are looking at 3080 + cards only same with AMD

AMD's next-gen RDNA 3: revolutionary chiplet design could crush NVIDIA
Or the 4000 series will crush the RDNA3 because Nvidia have shown historically they can regardless of how "revolutionary" AMD was (HBM2, etc..)
See. Bad News goes both ways, Billy.
AMD Navi 21 ‘Big Navi’ GPU Rumored To Be Featured In 16 GB & 12 GB Radeon RX Gaming Graphics Cards
Based on the leaked PCI ID for the specific Navi 21 GPU SKUs, we can say that the Navi 21 XTX and Navi 21 XT would come with 16 GB VRAM capacities and a 512-bit bus interface. The XTX variant is essentially a higher-binned variant and there's the possibility that we could see the XTX GPU being water-cooled and the XT variant being air-cooled. That will give users some cooling options as the non-reference (AIB) variants aren't expected later in late December or even Q1 2021.
well when it comes to MCM and chiplets i would think AMD will have a huge advantage because of Ryzen

So Billy, gimme a price prediction on that watercooled monster card from AMD. $1,200? More?
If they have to resort to water cooling then that suggests they aren't confident in competing that well.
They had to offer a water cooled Vega 64 just to make some kind of presence in the high end, and even then it wasn't enough.
Talk of RDNA2 water cool reference card + big memory + RDNA3 hype so soon makes me worry that AMD is going to fumble again this round.

Yeh that's how I see it too. If they need to water cool their card, that means it's pushed to its limits out of the box. Forget about nice OC's.
Just like the Ryzen CPUs give you all they got out of the box.
Purely on a marketing perspective, when I see watercooler, I think overly inefficient, hot, and cheating to win.
