AMD Nano Blacklist Situation

Same could be said for you too. You're looking for bias in Attic because you think his explanation of events isn't realistic, but yours is. Given the circumstances, this is unlikely so it's probably prudent to stop digging at this point.

[Rumor (Various)] AMD R7/9 3xx / Fiji / Fury

I'm not presenting an "argument" - I'm asking him to provide evidence for his. If he can bring a single shred of it to light, I'll gladly take it on board. You might be good with numbers, words - not so much. :rolleyes:

[WCCF] AMD Radeon R9 390X Pictured

Unless this came directly from Asus or is hosted on their website this is a completely useless source and could be made up by anybody. For one, when has any manufacturer ever put "The card size is 11.3"x 5.8"x 1.6" inches" under dimensions? Asus actually states them in a slightly more...

[WCCF] AMD Radeon R9 390X Pictured

It's not about GloFo vs TSMC, rather best case vs worst case scenario - 8GB for best case using an imposter, and 4GB as it might not be something AMD has time/ability to do at the moment. I agree completely, this is best/worst case for AMD as a company putting out competitive products...

[WCCF] AMD Radeon R9 390X Pictured

Agreed. If it comes with 4GB of RAM, then it looks like it may be aimed squarely at the 980. Maybe it will be billed as a 980 competitor at a similar price point but competitive with the Titan on performance.

AMD post big loss in Q1 2015 | New graphic cards coming in H2 2015

The 7970 released 3 months before the GTX 680 and its competition was the GTX 580 which it easily beat. This allowed AMD put the price high accordingly. The 7970 was AMD's first GCN card which is why the drivers took more time to mature. The cost of the 7970 went down soon after the GTX...

[Sweclockers] Asus MG279Q is to have the same panel as Acer XB270HU

Some utterly pointless arguments in this thread. Freesync and G-sync are more or less equal on monitors with 100+hz refresh rates and systems that can push that many frames a second G-sync may be superior at lower refresh rates. This is relevant to two types of buyer - the one that can't...

That's because Android has had a lot of money behind it, AMD doesn't have the same cash to back themselves up, and that's not because they haven't got products worth buying. Apple vs Google is a much more even playing field then AMD vs Nvidia.

It's not the hardware or the drivers that are AMD's problem. It's that people have been sucked in by marketing and only buy one brand. It's just like some people prefer iPhones over Android phones, there is very little in it these days but some remain loyal for no objective reason and also push...

If AMD goes out, who can fill the void?

Exactly. A big reason why AMD GPUs aren't selling as well as they should is due to Nvidia's marketing and questionable business practices. It's a direct parallel to what Intel did during the P4 era, except Nvidia appear to be more adept at it.

That's in isolation. That will go up in an actual in-game situation. Maybe it's doable, but it's hardly an amazing feature, compare it to Frostbite 3's dynamic water rendering which much more impressive in all regards IMO - non platform specific, works in an actual game, and is much harder...
