I know this is bringing up old poo poo, but I worked with Frank for a while at Alienware and this is him just being psyched because he's a gamer, no attempts to save face or anything like that.

Dude is also nice as hell and can hopefully help turn around their consumer GPU's

Ask yourself, do you really want to talk to pair of really nice gaudy shoes?



I guess this is pretty rudimentary design but still interesting. None of the partner card designs are interesting at all which is super disappointing.

Of course in 2020 we get a GPU with an extra-fat rear end. Why not, gently caress it.

So Nividia recommending 750 watt for the 30 series is slightly scary, but then I watched that Gamers Nexus link from earlier and he used fancy charts to demonstrate I'd be fine with my 550 watt psu :confused:

Their recommendations are always super conservative, as they have no idea what CPU you're using or the quality/efficiency of your PSU. I believe they recommend a 650W PSU for a 2070S, and you can probably run one of those on most systems with a 450W PSU, so 550W honestly sounds about right.

Obviously, but it doesn't change the fact that they are, on purpose, not doing any meaningful marketing on their own top sku, which is totally loving weird.

That's just not how marketing works, period. I'm in silicon valley tech marketing. gently caress man we've partnered with Nvidia, I have the staff mug to prove it. This poo poo is not right.

There's a whole chunk of people who are planning on buying the 3090 based on nothing but the model number (I'm betting yourself included). If that's true, the likely consequence for releasing more information is to disappoint some portion of those people and make them change their mind. Why would they do that?

The same rumor has been reported more than once, possibly the same source just being endlessly repeated by different outlets.

No, it's going to be an utter madhouse for about 13 seconds on release day, then 23 hours, 58 minutes, and 47 seconds of bitching and moaning.

the bright side of this is if they do somehow have decent stock the people who panic buy and end up with too many are going to have to dump them
