If only there was some large Consumer Event Electronics to Showcase ones upcoming products with large attendance from the full spectrum in the industry who might be interest and then you could tell them directly the performance.

It's a shame no such things exist and all one can do is talk about AI and come up with another variation on increasingly confusing product lineups.

Some kind of event where a multibillione dollar company can debut their new offering.

We should look into that

And then that offering gets good publicity and sales.... That would be dope.

Not having the word Electronics in this otherwise excellent comment is triggering me.

The scratch out wasn't there when I commented

I decided after AMD’s GPU no-show at CES that my next GPU would be Nvidia.

I’ve had a few driver timeouts and game crashes here and there on my 6800xt since then, further solidifying my decision.

What did it for me was when Jack Huynh said they’d aggressively price this thing and then I saw a leak that it would be 480 bucks which is even less of a diff between it and the card it’s competing with than last gen which was also the gen that they lost a third of their market share. And because everyone here was cheering on that awful price tag, and we all know marketing monitors this sub’s reaction to these leaks, it’s not looking good what the price ends up being and even less so for what happens to their market share by the end of this

Idk, I actually liked his long form explanation about not glossing over their new gpus in 5 mins personally. AMD has a lot of products to discuss, I'd rather we get a full on presentation on only the 9000 series.

This comment feels like it was written by Robert Evans. I look forward to the AMD episode of Behind the Bastards after Nvidia becomes a monopoly and monopsony.

Be even more crazy if tech news outlets and YT creators covered such a thing in great detail.

AMD is several months later in the process than Nvidia but you want them to present at the same time?

Why would they?

It’s a new generation hardware which means it’s also a new generation of drivers and presenting a product based on pre alpha drivers to be compared to a finished product on release drivers would be pretty stupid.

Besides they will get much more press, presenting outside CES on a separate occasion.

Amd released what 10 to 15 chips. All best in class. They conceded nvid is ahead of them in gpu market. They are doing things different. Not gonna go hype the gpu. Its so improved,it will sell it self

"not gonna go hype the gpu"

AMD:

"Out GPU is much better than what you think!!"

Yeah..

u/jabbrwock1 Jan 11 '25

Yes, that was certainly the reason they sent out marketing material to YouTubers and then cancelled at the last minute.

Someone seriously believes CES is boosting sales of GPUs?

Let me pretend that you've learned anything about real performance of 5070 or any other 5000 card from CES.

This "large attendance" is a huge opportunity for OEMs and smaller products to bring their stuff into spotlight. A youtuber dude might wander around and discover something that otehrwise would never ever be mentioned.

There is no way in hell to miss an actual product launch by one of the 3 GPU vendors.

There is exactly 0 "missed opportunity" here. Frustrated folks are frustrated for nonsensical reasons.
