hey what's up tech fans welcome back once again to take it tomorrow I'm Eric your host and there's something that's want to talk to you guys about so we've now seen the brand new rx 580 and rx 570 hit the market but in all honesty after seeing this launch I got a really questions to set to answer and I don't mean it's no disrespect but Andy what the you thinking man this is the weirdest honestly weirdest launch I've ever seen from AMD if you guys follow Chen you guys do I go out of my way all the time to make sure I support AMD as much as possible but this particular launch has me in quite a little bit of conundrum in my brain because I just really don't see the point of it the 570 card pretty much has its balls cut off it's only four gigabyte card so it's kind of weaker almost in a 480 in a lot of instances so why is that particular card even coming out at all now the 580 I can kind of see why did want to get that out because it does complete a lot better with the 10 60 even at overclocked n 60 a lot better but that's just such a wee bit of an important help for performance increase but I got to say to myself just what the hell is going on with this launch I mean I thought it was Vega in fact I kept emailing them over and over again saying hey this big I was all happy excited is this Vegas Vegas they were ignoring my emails and in fact I almost missed this entire launch because even though these cards were coming out for some reason every time I emailed AMD they didn't say to me in all honesty I found out about these cards by rumors online I was like oh there's a new release coming so I call a button they're like oh yeah there is so I really only had about three days with the cards I mean it really we only have these card for such a short time I don't feel like I got to dig totally in but since it's a brand new release and we know all the drivers not surf we're going to need catching up with I'm just in my head kind of wondering why AMD actually did this I don't know have the AMD fans out there are going to react I know you guys are a hardcore bunch but do you really see yourself going out and buying a card that requires more power than any other card you pretty much see Melissa's like you know got two new GPUs on it because the rx 580 man it is a power requirement the same as that of a GTX 1080 I so that means if we're going to be building crossfire systems or anything like that you're going to have to get a much bigger power supply with more connectors on it just to do that so if you're thinking you can just go out and just like hey change out your 480 system and then throw these cards in there well you can't and to be honest with you a 1080 sli only takes 2 8 10 power connectors one for each card where the RX for 580 excuse me takes a single 6 pin and a single 8 pin to power that card now that to me is just very confusing even though the car did run cool and everything why bring a card to market that requires so much freaking power but only brings that little bit of a performance game at the moment performance can't excuse me I just really at the end of the day don't know what's going on with this I don't mean to kick AMD but at the end of the day when I look at these cards I look at the performance of them I got to really say to myself Andy what the are you guys thinking because this to me is just kind of weirdest thing ever I definitely want to hear your guys opinions down below it is a bit controversial but that's just the way it goes 570 in my opinion has its balls cut off doesn't even perform really as good as the RX for 80 around the same price a little bit a little bit cheaper for the card but the performance just isn't there why even bring a card to market but does that I mean sure is a little bit faster than a 470 well yeah sure slightly faster but for that small bit of performance I just don't think it's worth it to go out and dump your cards and buy new cards like I said in my previous video if you don't own an AMD card whatsoever and you're strictly an AMD family you want their stuff in your system and you're like NVIDIA well then hey maybe buying a brand new card this will be cool and if you have no problem with the higher power requirements but hey good for you as well at the end of the day I have to say out of all the releases I've seen in my career this is the weirdest refresh I've ever seen and I just wonder what is AMD thinking doing this they should have waited a little bit longer my opinion came out with a little bit better of a card and this is truly the stop gate I'm hearing until next year so that means this is all you're going to see from AMD what I'm hearing so far until we see the Vega and that's a little bit of a way off so I'm mark you guys are watching Tekken Amaro what do you guys think I'm really just not all that impressed with this launch and I'm just wondering what AMD was thinking with this is this just something to get some quick cash because as far as performance goes I just don't see these things being that great of an upgrade from the previous generation cards piece
