I dropped a lot of cash on a 144hz/1440p freesync monitor in August last year. If you'd told me then it would be a full year before Vega arrives I'd suddenly see the G-Sync premium as not such an unreasonable thing after all. I don't even want to consider that small vega (my most likely upgrade path) may be coming even later, and at goodness knows what price/performance. Add to that the great Polaris drought and I'm really hoping my 290 doesn't croak anytime soon. I suppose I should consider this penance for all those times in April/May when I earnestly recommended waiting for Vega. What's a person to do when it's been 'just around the corner' for so long?
I'm trying to remain optimistic, there's still time for AMD to deliver something compelling, but there's that horrible feeling that all I'm seeing is a truly legendary disappointment in the making. I'd like to think Nvidia's marketing department has a suitably scathing response to 'Poor Volta' ready. If you can't cry might as well laugh?
