So how much is this one going to cost? $80? This company's greed has gotten out of hand.

Remember when they said this during the chip shortage

“These changes in pricing are not here to stay. As global supply chain issues moderate, we’ll keep revisiting this issue, and we want to get pricing back to where it was as fast as we can,”

Bullshit.

It's only a matter of time. Just like physx and any other Nvidia gimmick, AMD will catch up and offer it for a fraction of the price.

I have a MacBook in my closet I can't use at all because of an Nvidia integrated GPU. I've had nothing but problems with their shitty software too. Never had a single problem since I switched to AMD, and it was wayyyy cheaper. Your issue sounds like PEBCAK to me.

You know opencl AMD installations have problems if you have previously installed Nvidia software? So it sounds like your experience with AMD may have been soured by NVIDIA actually, and then you went out and gave them more money.

Classic PEBKAC

Honestly I think I'd make that trade. At least if they lived they would have a house, family and kids to come home to. And a lifetime of prosperity. I'd trade a few horrible years for that. Either way I wouldn't have to live an entire lifetime struggling for everything.

The greed is real

Yeah, I'm sure he's doing it for the lowest paid people on his show, not too fill his bank account or anything... I'm sure he's paid a similar amount to all of his staff /s

Did he though? I bet the staff wouldn't be struggling so much if he paid them more in the first place. Nvm there's plenty of other ways to help your staff as proven by others.

Let me tell you, I'm much much more comfortable on chat and webcam than in person.

Some games are built specifically for AMD from the ground up and have been optimized like crazy. Depends on the game and the devs mostly. And let's not forget that if devs want it to run well on PS5 and Xbox Series x/s, then they better have good AMD optimization.

I wouldn't buy anything but the 64gb version. Very easy to swap the SSD and it's much cheaper.
