Wrong way round.
BECAUSE you declared you are an AI first company, your gaming revenue crashed 40%
Asshole
My exact response.
Hyperscaler data centers have no future.
Already trying to rebrand them as “compute campuses”, like that’s going to work lol
Nobody wanted aeroplanes. But as soon as they become jet liners…yeah also most people don’t want to ride them. Something about the inusual 600ph into the ground has everyone terrified.
What are you talking about?
That is just wrong.
Oh, its the pollution. As soon as you get close to a plane, the pollution get tough to agree with.
For a small minority of people, most people don’t care.
Getting from A to B is a universal problem, be it a hundred years ago or a bundred years from now. There is a want for not havin to sit on a ship for many days if your plane can cross the Atlantic in one day.
But prop planes could fit 10-30 passengers. Flying was very much a luxory even with the advent of jets.
So no, it wasn’t a branding problem of calling it aeroplanes, but tickets being prohibitivly expensive.
I am almost curious where you think the internet is.
edit: downvoted me and then edited your comment because you know I’m right. stay classy.
Data centers is not a new concept, and have proved the opposite actually.
The major corps have abandoned gamers.
Maybe there’s hope in the startup world, but I am skeptical:
If this is even half as performant as they promise, it will be a game changer.
However, I’m old enough to remember what happened to 3DFX. I really don’t want Nvidia to eat this company.
I wouldn’t be too optimistic about startups these days, either. As soon as they become any threat to the incumbents, they’ll either get priced-out, or bought-out. And thats not taking into account the software/driver support for gaming technologies (ask early adopters of Intel Arc). I’m sure Bolt have some really nice technology, but essentially that could just boil down to a portfolio of useful patents.
this does not inspire confidence.
Introducing the Fastest Graphics Processor Ever
We built a completely new graphics processor to enable faster renderings and simulations for users in the creative, gaming, and research industries.
GPU where?
I thought the same thing. There was a graph for ray tracing but nothing else about the GPUs. This looks to be selling an idea, not an actual product.
I just wonder if we need 2000€ GPUs anymore to render games…
Maybe we’re at the dawn of a new gaming era? Like if you make a game fun, it doesn’t have to have like perfectly rendered ears of a whole population and such.
Stardew valley is a good example of a game not needing triple a hardware and providing infinite hours of fun
I never got into stardew valley, but it sure is a good example!
They abandoned consumers in general. I wonder who will be able to use all that magnificent data centers powers in few years when there will be no more consumer computers or there.
Fuck you Lisa. All my goodwill towards AMD is now gone.
Some previously unknown Chinese manufacturere will see this opportunity and rush to deliver something. The first generation will be weak, but subsequent iterations will improve drastically, to the point where the market share will never come back to a US company.
They already are. The writing is one the wall as AMD and Nvidia prepare to forget about games.
China has a home grown gfx in the low end Intel has a mid range card. China will iterate fast as we know. We just need Intel to stay the course and continue and not drop out but it seems likely they will drop out, which is a shame as the Arc B580 I have is amazing
🤞I’d rather not support American trash.
The government will ban it before that ever happens
Just in time for the AI bubble to pop. Enjoy.
Motherfucker.
Hang on to your hardware, PC folks. It’s gonna be a long ride back to reality.
My five year old PC just died and I already can’t replace some of the components new.
I bit the bullet this summer and built brand new. I’ve checked the same parts several times since and all but the CPU have gone up.
This rig better last me a long time!
9800X3D and 9070XT for reference. Only 32 GB RAM. 800€ was painful enough….
Gee I wonder why people stopped being able to upgrade their hardware. So weird…
I wonder why gaming revenue crashed?
Once gfx got hw ray tracing there isn’t anything else besides more memory or faster clock. Most peoples gfx cards are good enough for everything except 4k Ultra so people stop needing to upgrade….gaming sales decline.
Godamnit. I had been hoping that as Nvidia reels from the inevitable AI collapse, AMD would be poised to become the leader in the gaming space.
AMD and Nvidia are currently run by the same family. They are first cousins.
never bet on a silicon valley ghoul to be smart sane or humane.
Weird how quickly they forget how close they were to actual bankruptcy before Zen. Guess you’re going back down the hole again?
Fuck AMD. The same corrupted shit as NVIDIA and Intel.
Yeah but if you want a graphics card who else can you buy from?
Dave. he gets stuff that falls off of trucks.
They grow for free in data centers
Those cards are headless. No DP/HDMI.
Same as “mining” cards back in the day. With a few clever software tricks, you can absolutely make them output image through the motherboard HDMI
they won’t. silicon valley doesn’t do that.
My stubbornness is immaculate. There are more old games out there that I can play for several lifetimes before caving to high prices or renting a gaming cloud service monthly. I can get used hardware in many ways.
