Not sure I need that much. Going back to my audio problems the other day, I’m almost certain that my on board audio controller is shot since I can’t get it working. I just need a simple sound card that reads a mic and sends audio to my headphones.

Oh okay, yeah just grab whatever then. I have high end audio setups.
I think you can get a Soundblaster Audigy FX for ~$30.

AMD Big Navi might still be faster than the RTX 3080

quote:
The listing hints that the GPU will feature 80 compute units (CUs) and a 256-bit memory bus. If each Compute Unit (CU) in AMD's RDNA 2 architecture still equates to 64 Stream Processors (SPs), that means Big Navi will have 5,120 SPs.

Is Big Navi only supposed to compete with Nvidia's mid-range card?

No it competes with the 3080, Nvidia's top gaming card.

Why stop fanboying there? Show me big Navi specs compared to the 3070.

I just care about the 3080 level card. Find your own shite for the other cards.
And if you don't like AMD, this may not be the thread for you, especially over the next couple of months with Zen 3 and then Big Navi.

Fanboying or not, if AMD can get anywhere near close to RTX 3080 performance for $600 and they dont have the inventory issues, they will hurt Nvidia.

The 3080 is Nvidia's flagship gaming card (per their own admission), the 3090 is a Titan replacement and more for workstation. It just so happens to game 8k60 in some titles well which is how they are marketing it towards gamers.
At any rate, you have to be a little crazy to spend $1500-$1700 on that card for 10% more gaming performance over a $700-$800 3080.

the official specs arent out yet and it's kind of pointless still till we know what the actual performance is. You know, not just trusting marketing material like how the 3080 was "2x faster" than a 2080. AMD will do a similar thing no doubt, but the fact remains if AMD can have inventory and compete well in the 3070/3080 space, they will crush sales compared to Nvidia because they can actually produce a supply while Nvidia cant on Samsung 8nm right now and seemingly through the end of the year.
If they come out with 12 GB and 16 GB cards especially nvidia will almost have to immediately counter with some Ti/Super cards with higher memory as 8-10GB simply isnt enough for 4k gaming.
From what it sounds like the AMD cards competing with nvidia will have 8 GB for 3060 competitor, 12 GB for 3070 competitor and 16 GB for 3080 competitor, but also still speculation right now.

I failed to get one, had two friends in europe get the ftw 1729 model though. I didn't want to spend that much when I was just gonna put a water block on it.

The mobile market is actually getting so damn strong. Intel tiger lake is a beast as is their new iGPU.
AMD's next Gen mobile chip specs came out and it too sounds great.
AMD's next-gen Ryzen APU: Zen 3 CPU, RDNA 2 GPU, 6nm node, DDR5 RAM
Gonna be some serious competition in that space. Good for everyone.
