Is AMD's 2 Pronged Attack A Strategic Mistake?

2019-03-02
hey what's up tech world today I want to talk to you guys about something that's been happening over and over and over again honestly the cycle is just repeated itself for over ten years now and this cycle is pretty much this it's AMD trying to keep up with both Intel and NVIDIA at the same time now for any company out there or for any person out there you know that fighting two people at once is much harder than fighting one person right you fight one person you can concentrate on that particular person and take them out you got two people well your chance of getting your butt kicked have just doubled because well check it out there's two freaking people they're doing it so AMD fighting on two fronts I don't really know how this is going to pan out for them I mean every year we all hope okay finally AMD is gonna make a CPU or they're gonna make a GPU they're gonna catch up they're gonna beat Intel they're gonna beat Nvidia it's gonna be cheaper it's gonna be faster it's gonna be better how many times how many years have we been hearing this go on I mean it's been a long time and the cycle doesn't seem like it's going to break whatsoever now it's 2019 AMD has released the Radeon 7 is the Radeon 7 going to be the card that you thought it would is it going to be a card that's going to be kicking butt all over Nvidia no it's not once again even with the Reese's that card it's not going to be exactly what you expect it might be what you want I mean the card is pretty expensive though the cards coming in at $700 so I mean in videos you know 2070 is like in that price range do you know 28 he's like about $900 so it's coming in you know at a pretty high price range and it doesn't seem like it's going to be able to beat any of the high-end Nvidia cards whatsoever it's just gonna hit the market you were gonna see probably a little slight performance booths with stuff that's what's gonna happen and it's not gonna really be much more now on the GPU side of things it doesn't really seem like in 2019 that AMD is going to be able to take over and honestly beat nvidia at all this year Nvidia pretty much seems like they have all their ducks in a row they've got cards out it just seems like they've got cards sitting around so whenever I am do you need does anything they kind of just laugh and that's it okay here's another card go ahead and lower your prices somewhere to compete and let's move on with our day now on the CPU side of things though AMD has grown pretty close to in town even though you know the i9 CPUs if you buy the top-of-the-line it is the fastest gaming CPU but it's also very very pricy AMD CPUs are much less expensive now the question here though at the end of the day though is is having the fastest thing and the most performance hungry thing really the most important aspect of what you're going to be doing with your build and stuff I mean sure yeah I mean it's great to have the fastest thing it's cool you know if you can afford to buy a 20 80 I paid 1,300 bucks and get one of those you know that's great so even when the Radeon seven does you know mass-market and stuff at $700 it's still gonna probably sell okay just because the AMD fans who completely hate NVIDIA and hate everything about the company they're going to buy those cards regardless of what's going on but it still puts AMD as the underdog now I was really hoping in 2019 that we would see Andy finally overtake somebody I don't care who it is I don't care if it's Nvidia I don't care if it's Intel I just want to see those guys come out on top at least once now nears past yes AMD has had some new stuff a bunch of different times but the only problem is it seems like when in when Nvidia releases technology that makes absolutely no sense people still buy they're like oh you do guards if AMD does anything like that though they literally get you a new butthole by everybody what's in kind of a way you know really isn't fair because even in the past when AMD came out with technologies that were ahead of everybody else like let's just put it this way their CPUs were the very first CPUs to handle 64-bit windows how long though was it before 64-bit Windows came out though when they had that support it was almost two years down the line and then by that time Hague guess what hey Intel and the other guys already all ketchup so even when AMD does come out with some ideas that are ahead of the pack it seems like their ideas sit around and wait and they get really beat up for it now NVIDIA this year has released all this new stuff with RT X and RT X has been kind of a kind of a hit and miss thing we all know this but it does give Andy a chance to come up the ladders I just really hope that they would choose one area or the other and focus their battle in that direction because fighting two people on two different battle fronts is gonna be a hard battle and it kind of seems like on the GPU side of things that AMD might be giving up it doesn't seem like they're putting their full afternoon I know if you were gonna say oh well Rick you know they brought this guy in from so-and-so and they've got this new dude there and this guy's like Jesus Christ and he's gonna save the world with his new technology and all this stuff it's just really not going to happen that way and I'm gonna tell you why the main problem is money okay just face it you're a person you're fighting a battle you're spending money on every battle that you're fighting every battle every battle that you do is costing money from your company now Nvidia they've got shit loads of deep pockets of money so they can play games do whatever they want and it's not gonna really hurt them but AMD on the other hand doesn't have that same financial stability to do that and I really want to see them in 2019 come ahead somewhere so they really need to focus their energies in one direction I want to know what you guys think about this as well do you guys think that AMD should just keep trying to compete in every market and just keep coming in second best or do you think that AMD should Farkus Blizzard Farkus should focus I don't that new word is it's a new word Farkus it means when you're trying to focus but you fart it's a Farkus know that's getting but it sounds funny right I think though that they should focus on one area or the other like just accept something like you know if you know if your GPUs aren't going to be able to be able to beat Nvidia quit going around touting how you're going to beat Nvidia quit counting this horn that is just complete bull crap at the end of the day it's really like a false alarm like oh my god the sky is falling blowing oh wait I was underneath the tree and that's a walnut you know I mean you know not very logical AMD needs to focus on one area if they want to beat intel the nadie to concentrate on beating intel pour their energies into the CPU market be very competitive and just go all out and do that and let the video card market be secondary or focused on the video card market quit trying to compete with Intel and compete with Nvidia because I honestly feel that as long as AMD keeps trying to fight on two fronts they're going to keep being the underdog and they're gonna keep being second best I want to know what you think there's a lot of AMD fans out there we all know that AMD has always been the price King they're always a team of people you go to if you don't have a lot of money you want a good system you go to AMD if you want to have the absolute best and fastest up well then you go with the Intel and video route in 2019 though do you think do you honestly think that AMD can beat either one of these companies and a fair playing field and we all know that a lot of these companies don't play fair we've talked about in other videos about Intel and NVIDIA they play really dirty pool and AMD does too they just do it on a little bit different level and try to keep it on the low they don't do slopes you know so it's like pops in their face like a balloon they try to keep really a little key about it but those things as well factor and everything at the end of the day so what do you guys think should AMD keep fighting to battles on two fronts or should they concentrate on one specific target and take that target and actually become the top of the line you know and do this with a product that's not only current technology but currently something that everybody could use I want to see this in 2019 do you think that AMD can beat either company in 2019 let me hear your thoughts down below I want to hear what you guys have to say I love always interacting with you folks so let me see your comments I may lurk you guys been watching ticker tomorrow thanks for watching this discussion you know won't be any links down below because basically there's nothing down there to link you to I just want to see your guys opinions and let you know let me know rather what you guys think do you think that AMD can win in 2019 and you think they can do it fighting two targets at once all of a poll piece out we'll see you guys back in the channel for more tech I'm taking tomorrow
