it looking for a killer keyboard make sure to check that one out by Corsair we'll have a link down below so check it out for AMD fans the news is kind of a mixed bag even though we're probably not gonna see Navi til probably second or third quarter of next year on November 15th at least right around November 15th we are going to see a brand new AMD 590 card to hit the market now even though that doesn't sound like really really exciting news what's really exciting about it is it's going to be the very first GPU that's based on the 12 nanometer process so regardless of anything else whether it's a slight polaris refresh or anything else the good news is that AMD is the very first company in the world to hit the 12 nanometer process on their video cards so you're gonna see all the company's sapphire XFX all those giant card companies in the middle of November you're gonna see this brand new 590 being launched so what I've heard so far though is that aspect wise it's probably not going to be that much different meaning that it's not gonna be like a whole whole lot faster apply be a little bit faster um the exact memory configuration haven't actually got that because it's under under NDA so I haven't actually seen that information but I knew know that the cards are coming they're going to be based on the 12 nanometer process and they will have suppose the new cooling apparatus so we're thinking you know smaller die better yield which you know should come across as better pricing to all of you AMD fans out there and for gamers in general who want a card that's affordable because we all know that right now unless you want to get into the 2070 the higher end cards from Nvidia are very very expensive so as long as the card is though a little bit faster its affordable and the biggest thing of all is that it's available and not sucked up by a bunch of miners around the world you know eating all the cards up so that you know true gamers kind of get screwed in it to pay a higher price tag it will be great you know even though it's a polaris refresh and it's you know not you know the greatest you know new chip it's not knobby it's nothing you know extremely radical the very fact that AMD was the first person to the market to bring the 12 nanometer process is still an achievement and shows that AMD is starting to be a little bit competitive now on the GPU side of things I've said this before it doesn't really seem like to me AMD's putting their full full effort into it now I know a lot of the fans out there sent me emails saying hey you know they've moved certain guys from certain departments here they are in every word you know to make sure that the GPU department is doing better and I really hope that they are because when AMD doesn't release new cards and new technology it really leaves Nvidia just to kick back sit on their laurels and do absolutely nothing and trust me even though I know that sucks if it was you and it was me we do the exact same thing I mean if I have a white car and all of my white cars are selling and they're selling good why would I need to introduce a blue a red car you know I mean it's a matter of the numbers game it's like sure okay we could release them but if there's no reason to and you're still making a lot of profit especially in older technology well then hey what the heck now I have seen video card prices drop quite a bit you can get a lot of the older series from Nvidia now a lot of those cards have actually dropped under $500 you can even find if you look around at 1080 I it'll be used probably but you can find one for under $500 which is a really good deal so if you're not into RT X that's cool but in the AMD theit side of things you know I was really hoping that we would have seen their actual new chipsets this year by CES but that seems to not be the case so what we're going to be getting is we're going to be giving a brand-new 590 12 nanometer process it's probably going to be about a hundred to maybe two hundred megahertz faster which isn't a whole lot it still will give it a boost but hopefully with the new cooling apparatus and a smaller die we're gonna see more cards available on the market which I mean they're gonna be more affordable and more available to gamers out there which is really what's the most important thing it doesn't really matter how good or bad a card is to the cards so overpriced that you can't afford it it's just like a pipe dream and all of us know you know you don't want to sit around and pipe dream too much you know you want to actually live in reality and get yourself a video card so for all those people out there who've been waiting for AMD to do anything whatsoever well guess what your day is about to arrive around November 15th like I said the new five 90s will hit the market twelve nanometer prices like I've repeatedly said the first to the market on this new cooling apparatus which hopefully will keep the cards running a lot cooler and hopefully everything will be available in the market so that you guys can buy the card at a good price and get your game on I'm Miller you guys been watching tikka tomorrow thanks for watching for AMD fans out there hey at least there's a little bit of sunshine at the end of the tunnel peace
