obviously one of the more trending topics in the past week or so the 2080 what are your guys fuss at at the same time you know people have been angry at me because they feel like I'm you know I'm the shill for in video but I think people 1 never pre-order because why would you but wait for the benchmarks at the same time would I run out and go buy a 1080 TI or a 1080 right now I want to wait and see what what's gonna be on the other side and I do respect that what they're trying to do with this card may not go over well but they are at least trying to go for something else besides just more frame rates at a higher resolution which most people don't really need me at this point so I respect that and I think people need to just pump the pump on the heat brakes a little bit so now I feel like whatever reason there exists to during the keynote we we haven't seen any kind of performance benchmarks or different numbers whatever reason it is it's not a positive reason so we have to wait unless we just buy it once all your life to have ray-tracing man yeah for me it's I'm not as smart as most of my co-workers so for me it's just the itch I'm just like I don't I don't know why I just when I see something new and shiny I just want it and I think that's kind of a problem but at the same time to each their own you know do you guys think that's a thing among the the PC community is like when there's a new hardware announce everybody is like oh I need to get it it's a humanity yes you everyone wants the newest biggest and on the twenty eighty though I think a lot of the ray-tracing stuff it is really cool there is validity to wanting to go that direction definitely anybody is doing a good job of trying to go that direction they're also doing a good job of trying to go that direction when there's not a process shrink and they can't get them improvement in performance elsewhere so like there is a marketing play but hopefully there's some action we'll gain from it for the industry because like chicken or the egg problem no one can do rate racing if they don't have hardware to do rage racing on the right valper side but also on the consumer side games don't really have it yet other than the few they listed or any of the other features they had so it's a problem there but the end of the day and video can't get more gains easily until we get down to seven nanometer cuz they're on fourteen or sixteen now depend on which card so that's a limitation and price is a limitation because g2g are six is twenty percent more than gddr5 so definitely there's a lot of marketing going into the RT x announcement which is not abnormal for any product announcement but I mean keep it in mind I guess because it's not it's if you buy it it's not like the games that you play today will look amazing and way better than they ever have unless you consummately old graphics card because they frankly just they don't have the features that it supports yet right ultimately the problem is we need we need competition for graphics cards right ambi needs to get its button into action because it's been awesome on CPU side with rise in a thread Ripper and core I 9 and core i7 we're in a I mean you could get cores now that you could never get five years ago for the price you're paying for if we see that in GPUs everybody will be happy nobody will compete complaining about twenty eighty at whatever price everybody will just be happy the competition is a huge concern too because as nvidia takes more control of the market they're getting into a position where they have more control over partners and media and everyone else in the chain so like i mean ideally they just keep making good video cards and leave it at that but definitely there is a president that without competition I look at Intel for like ten years before they had rise in the face it kind of stagnates so yeah that's that's actually a big concern of mine is what happens if and these stops making video cards that can compete yeah I have a yeah I would imagine that what happened but yeah that is what was a concern I think they're gonna continue to push in you know twenty eighty could be amazing it could be a complete disaster because they could take a right turn named he makes a left turn and everybody wants to go left turn with AMD this time so we don't know so
