For a technology channel there seems to be very little in the way of anything beyond the latest consoomerism on this channel.
>>107089897>channel about consumer products has videos about consumer productsMakes no sense
>>107089822i dont particularly understand this drama. afaik they just moved rdna1 and 2 on a different driver branch that will still get updates and support, but might/will not receive some tech that could only be implemented for rdna3+ or software that could potentially be buggy and might cause issues for old cards, and I assume they did this in preparation for fsr4 release for rx7000 series cards and to avoid people bitching that it wont come to rdna1 and 2 they did this split.it is quite poorly communicated, but i dont see why steve is completely losing his shit over this and comparing it to nvidia drivers causing black screens for everyone. how the fuck are these 2 things even close?
>>107090093>defends AMD pulling an ASUSshow us how much you’re being paid
>>107089897It isn't an apple/nintendo channel, deal with it.
>>107089827this, screenshot of preview pic of a video without linking the videopeak schizo
>>107089822The really hillarious thing is that AMD will not do anything different, they just won't do it publicly.
>>107090093>that will still get updates and supportDelayed, which means more broken games on launch.But mostly because AMD badly communicated it, badly apologized for it, and badly corrected themselves.
>>107090595linking = shilling newfaggot you are a stinky poo2loo from hyderabadif people are interested, they will go find it themselves.
>>107090936>Delayed, which means more broken games on launchName the last game which was broken on launch without the latest "optimized" driver. On AMD or Nvidia (obviously not Intel since everything's broken on Arc).
>>107091002Depends how broken is defined.Some games won't even let you launch unless you meet a minimum driver version. There have been bugs that can prevent game completion in video drivers as well.
>>107089897I think he has alienated so many companies that he has no review samples coming in anymore, thus nothing to review. He cannot actually afford buying everything. So he makes consumer reports instead like Aanand.
>>107089822Listening to a faggot in 2025
>>107089822for the love of god why isn't posting dramanexus an instant permaban
>>107091082So basically you don't have any examples? That's what I thought. Because this whole YOU MUST HAVE A DAY ONE DRIVER THE GAME WILL BE BROKEN WITHOUT A DAY ONE DRIVER shit is pure bullshit. It wasn't a thing until Nvidia's marketing department dreamed it up as a way to help push the idea that they had better driver support than AMD. The average normie gets their graphics driver installed automatically by Windows, which are always (at least) months behind the latest version. We should be hearing about people having major problems all the time taking that into account, yet we don't. More importantly, many people continue to play on older cards that haven't received "Game Ready" updates in years anyway. It'll be a fascinating thing to watch people tie themselves in knots over this now that Pascal has been dropped by Nvidia. The 1080 Ti will continue to work fine in all the latest games and will be the most high-profile busting of the myth of the NEED for day one drivers to date. The drama-obsessed kiketuber retards won't cover that of course, because they feed on negativity, drama and shilling the latest crap, not stories of positivity and shit just working.As for hard driver version blocks, those are a completely different thing and only implemented by retarded developers who deserve death.
>>107091312I don't track game releases closely enough to have specific examples, but you can just view release highlights and release notes to see game fixes occurring.https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/257337/
STEVE IS MY FRENHE FITES 4 DA PPL
>>107089822Based Tech Jesus.
>>107090093I’m actually upset that FSR4 probably won’t be coming to RDNA2 more so than I am about which specific driver branch it’s on, which doesn’t matter. Go ahead, move them to maintenance mode but don’t do so without giving RDNA2 the support it deserves. Put it on equal footing with at least Turing and give us INT8 FSR4.
>>107091312battlefield 6 beta didn't run on Polaris and Vega unless you modified your registry to show a newer driver version there's tons of random breakage everywhere for Vega, for Polaris it's a lot less since devs do try to work around driver issues for those GPUs
>>107092641they confirmed no new features for RDNA2, so no FSR4 nor AFMF 3, or Redstone turns out Turing was the better choice all along
>>107092651They have all but confirmed that so far, nothing about FSR4 not coming to RDNA2, though it’s implied. I will say, that AMD can kiss my ass if they don’t do it, these cards are still perfectly powerful if they would just support them. Since I’m apparently one of the 5 people that bought RDNA4, they’ll lose 20% market cap when I switch to Nvidia next gen.
>>107090093The leak has proven that fsr4 can work on 6000. If they're going to release fsr4 for 7000 but not 6000 I'm going to roblox Lisa Su in her house in Los Angeles.
>>107089822The freak out about this is completely unwarranted. Yeah they fucked up the original announcement but they've basically completely walked it back. Meanwhile these outlets will continue to ignore the fact that Nvidia's driver stack for Windows has been broken all year, that Nvidia is also dropping legacy support, and that their Linux support is is still effectively non-existent.
>>107089822>ohnininininini????????
>>107093055For me, the only “freakout” I experienced over this was not about AMD moving RDNA2 to a different driver branch, it’s the tacit admission that they’re not going to give us official FSR4 support on RDNA2 when they do it, which is bullshit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkPPejQXFNoAYYMDEAD IS FINISHED & BANKRUPT
>>107093055>but they've basically completely walked it back.No they haven't. RDNA 1&2 are still in 'maintenance mode', everything else they say is irrelevant.
>ohnininininini>>107093172
>>107091312>Because this whole YOU MUST HAVE A DAY ONE DRIVER THE GAME WILL BE BROKEN WITHOUT A DAY ONE DRIVER shit is pure bullshit.Battlefield 2042 and 6 wouldn't launch without a minimal driver version (generally the latest update when they update). The last... I want to say... 5-7 Call of Duties are similar. They won't boot to menu until you meet their latest drivers/minimal driver version.It's not "broken" per se, but it is a mandate.
i thoughtered we didnt like updoots here
>>107089863OK, this got a chuckle out of me.
>>107094113How did RandomGaminginHD made a video of playing Battlefield 6 at 60fps on an RX 570 if it doesn't work?
>>107092651RDOA2 competes with Ampere. Turing was released 1 year before RDOA1.Imagine Nvidia EOLing Ampere now LMAO you wouldn't heard the end of it from all the jewtubers for years.
>>107094023nothing from 2020 is going to be running shit made for 2027 next gen hardwareif you're on rdna 1 and 2 you might as well switch to linux instead of suffering with the bloat
>>107094619oh shit it's 2027 already!?
>>107094627you're not going to be playing shit just because you can hit 33 fps instead of 30, be it ampere or rdna2
I have to applaud amd because they've somehow managed to brainwash tubers and their drones that all the shit decisons are made by the marketing team.Well played tranny su, unironically that DEI didn't do shit and coasted on decisions for zen made before her term.
>>1070946732018 cards are still recommended on the pcbg thread OP, 7 years after they launched, because they work perfectly fine for 1080p60
>>107094820with low as shit settings and upscaling from 720p to reach 60everything is going to age like shit in the face of forced raytracing
>>107094904Eh, part of supporting your products is not just about supporting games of the future, it’s about supporting the games of today. There’s more than one game I’ve played on my 6800m that I would have appreciated FSR4 support on this year alone. The framerate was good enough that the improved image quality would be worth the performance hit.
>>107091122Doesn't he buy the stuff he reviews anonymously?
>>107091312iirc Road Redemption never worked with Vega 56/64/7 at all. May work with the iGPUs that use Vega, but it never liked the discrete HBM cards.
>>107094904>with low as shit settings and upscaling from 720p to reach 60If you use those settings, a 8600G iGPU can do 60fps in Unreal Engine 5 (not a hyperbole, I'm playing Robocop on one).
>>107089897Has GAMERSnexus ever focused on any tech news that doesn't have to do with consumeristic gamer merch or are you making up a narrative for the sole purpose of getting upset?
>>107090093Not supporting graphics cards you're still selling as new is generally bad practice that will cause you to lose whatever meager market share you had.
>>107095240He buys nothing. He literally threw a fit when NVIDIA gifted him samples but wouldn't give him the drivers BEFORE release.That dude seriously got angry because he got stuff for free, but wasn't allowed to review BEFORE everyone else.He also doesn't take review samples unless he is explicitly allowed to keep them.

>>107096217The video company that pays them for making this video (brought to you by) is not paying for them for making this video?Also why is GamersNexus taking sponsorship money for stuff THEY THEMSELVES REVIEW? Do you trust a review of a product when the reviewer literally gets paid by that company?There is a term for this: An advertisement.
>>107096244They don’t pay for the video retard, they pay for ad time. The video is made regardless of which fucking sponsor is put in. >taking sponsorship money for stuff THEY THEMSELVES REVIEWthe product was reviewed before the sponsor even bought a slot, retarded pajeet.

>>107096292>MUH ESLwell yes, i am not a nigger, i am European.Maybe the restrictive repertoire of your nigger language is the reason why you don't understand that "sent by the manufacturer" is an intentional misleading phrasing.
>>107096316>I am European saar it says so on my passport!
>>107096295No, because of the simple fact that GamersNexus wouldn’t drive traffic to a different product in the same segment they’re reviewing, except when you get to the benchmarks and conclusions when you can actually make a fair assessment. It’s a good thing that the sponsor is unrelated to the video content, it means you can actually assess what is being reviewed fairly without influence from outside sources.

>>107096356Keep up the fallacies, you’re convincing everyone. Protip: Kryonaut was reviewed long before they even had a relationship with Derbauer.
>>107089822>Explains nothing>Posts eceleb shitGod awful thread.
>>107089863>OxidationAlways been bullshit. Voltage killed their products, it kills AMD's too. It's user error if you don't manually tune your shit as soon as you plug it in. I don't care what you buy but you deserve it if you don't know how to use it. This was made very obvious since Intel's 10th gen which came with ridiculous settings out of the box, the larger 14nm process was just hardy enough to handle high voltage and thermal throttle instead of slowly degrade. I do miss the days of being able to use infinite voltage as long as it was cooled within reason.
>>107091122You’re retarded.
>>107090093Oh, that's what this is about.Maybe if OP actually cared to specify what slop he was shitposting about.It's a non-issue. Companies will always phase out their aging tech in some way, and if people can't understand why then they're probably unemployed.

>>107096512>>"sent by the manufacturer" is a misleading phrasing and doesn't disclose that it was a free gift and that this free gift is allowed to be keptThis isn't even correct. In many cases they ask for the product back. Njudea has asked for their products back in the past.

>>107096316You will never be a European.
>>107096445It's galling they're doing this when I just bought a fucking RDNA2 card earlier this year and just put it in my system (waited for Win10 to kill itself and now AMD/AMD for Linux) only for them go "lol old card."Not a good thing for AMD to do, especially since RDNA2 is still in the 'Eck.
>>107096632if you're on linux literally nothing will happenthis only affects wangblows
>>107096555>This isn't even correct. In many cases they ask for the product backTo cite from the GN website:>GamersNexus does not return Samples, including those which are Mass Production (“MP”), Public Relations (“PR”), Retail, or Pre-Production samples. These Samples are not unique and inherently have no special value to the manufacturer. Companies are provided with these policies in advance of sending products so they are made aware that they will not be returned.In any way, you can agree that "sent by the manufacturer" is an intentional misleading wording, or not?You seem to dodge this question.
>>107096669It's the principal of the matter. If RDNA2 is still being sold (and used by their partners) it should be supported on ALL platforms.
didn't watch don't care
>>107096675>As above, a manufacturer is always afforded the right to simply sell the item to GamersNexus if it does not agree to this.
>>107096704Yes, the manufacturer agreed to send shit to them, they also agree to sponsor them and then get favorable reviews from them.Why wouldn't they?It would be stupid not to do that.But what about the consumer? The one watching the video? Does "sent by the manufacturer" correctly state that it is a gift that GamersNexus gracefully agreed on taking?

>>107096866modern children with no attention span simply going for rage bait
AMD is right, he IS confused.Branching doesn't mean that the other branch becomes obsolete or isn't supported anymore.Either Steve is a total retard, or he deliberately misrepresents things to steer drama.
>>107090093It is kiddies who have no grasp on product life cycles and development in the GPU world It is normal for older platforms to be place the backburner and don't receive extra attention on optimizations for new content. The only concern is making sure it just works.Nvidia does the same damn thing. If you aren't running Ada Lovelace/Blackwell-era hardware. You are not getting the "white glove" treatment anymore. It is just making sure your content just works.
>>107096686It is still being support you dunce. It is just not getting "white glove" treatment of optimizations to squeeze 1-5% extra potential performance in future content. Nvidia does the same thing with their aging stuff as well. Kepler and FX architectures being egregious examples of this.
>>107098736I think the holdup is the fact AMD is casting these GPUs on an entirely separate branch while calming they are still "supporting" itUsually if a GPU get's stuck on a driver branch, that is truly the end with no expectation of anything beyond some extremely minor bug fixes. No control panel updates and no game specific optimizations or bug fixesBoth Nvidia and AMD otherwise don't branch off GPUs if they claim they support them. Even if Nvidia for example hasn't done a thing to optimize Turing GPUs for basic DX/OGL rending for years, you can still install the latest Nvidia driver branch and get some game specific optimizations that aren't dependent on GPU architecture. Even if those are minorThis is all a departure of what's normal and why tards are fussing.
I was thinking of getting a 9060xt but if they cut support after just 3 years I might to intel instead, I just want something that has good linux open source driver compatibility
>>107096866a GPU is expected to last more than 8 yearsand sorry kid, RDNA2 was not 8 years ago. You are an AMDrone shillbot.
>>107090093It's the difference between playing GTA6 at 10fps or 60fps on launch day.Putting an architecture that they still sell into maintenance mode won't help that.
