>NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Selling Excellent, More Volume Shipped Than High-End Maxwell – Even Bigger Success Than The GeForce GTX 980 Ti and GTX 980
WHY PEOPLE ARE SO KEK?????
We'll compare the numbers of buyers of 1080's to 480's in the coming months. I highly doubt 1080 sales top 10% of 480 sales.
>>55212395
bte just because it sells more the 980Ti's does not mean it sold 'gazillions' of cards. It's still a 'premium' card. Overpriced at that. It's like saying Rolex watches or Ferrari's are selling like hotcakes.
>"Most sold high end card"
>2000-3000 jewnits
>>55212395
Good for Nvidia. Unfortunately for them I value money too much to one at the ridiculous prices they're going for at the moment.
>>55212488
It's the only new card alongside th 1070 they have and they are the only two they are making right now. Again it's like someone saying Rolex's and Ferrari's are selling like hotcakes. We know those are of limited supply as well.
Of course they're selling excellent. It's a paperlaunch, there's barely any cards to buy.
>Ferrari makes new car
>They are limited to 100 cars worldwide
>All the preorders are snapped up by rich Arabs
It's their best selling car ever!
>>55212520
>Everyone we talked to, outside of Nvidia of course, has confirmed that Geforce GTX 1080 launch was the biggest volume high end card launch, that was ever deceived by Nvidia at launch date. This got confirmed by both AIB and retail / etail sources and guess what, it all sold out in minutes. The numbers were much bigger than with Geforce GTX 980 or Ti launch, but it still sold within minutes.
;^)
>>55212515
Yes, idc i have a gt 420
It plays san andreas good
Honestly? I think they just had exceptionally good timing. A lot of people pre-ordered VR headsets just to find that their computer runs them like shit and oh would you look at that there's a new line of GPUs coming out that are specifically for that.
AYYMDPOORFAGS CONFIRMED ON SUICIDE WATCH
>1070 customer review
>Great card. It's noticeably better than my old GTX 980ti
Nvidia really hit the jackpot with their customer base. They will buy anything for any price even if it's only 10% faster than the last gen
>>55212537
More volume shipped
>>55212540
Meanwhile major Europe site confirmed only 20k total units for both at the end of July.
So, yeah
>>55212562
Indeed. People who purchased VR have more money than common sense. But they are rich enough to buy shit toys I guess. I'm jelly I am not rich but I can think of better things to use the money for like hookers and drugs. Meanwhile back in the real world...
>>55212583
What?
>$1200
lol, who is going to buy that shit?
Just bought a 1070 GTX. Not even trolling. There is just nothing else out there for 1440p gaming besides the 1080 but that's crazy.
>>55212562
next they will realize there aren't actually any VR games. What will they do then?
>>55212575
>The sales were so good let's make 100 more cars!
Compared to how many 480's will be available at launch Nvidia's 1080 series are smalfry. The sale of 480's will outweigh the profit of 1080's based on pure numbers.
>>55212618
I play every game fine on a 390. Clearly you are retarded.
>>55212626
Cute drawing, Anon. Ask your mommy to put it up on the refrigerator.
>>55212583
Heh see
>>55212537
But let the Nvidiots have their 'moment'.
>>55212621
That's where I am now. My solution is to make my own.
Also there's porn.
>>55212395
The AMD logo is ugly and the drivers reputation, that's why. It's sad.
>>55212650
>Cant read the random file name showing its not mine
Good job
Will the 1180 be significantly better than the 1080?
>>55212630
No one buys AMD, though.
>>55212643
Forgot to mention that I also plan to play with more than barely 60 fps, familia.
>>55212630
y-y-yeah, like Furys...
>>55212395
https://youtu.be/1YVrxFmheSc
>>55212665
It's called prebuilds and shittops
>pic related
i helped make it a success.
>>55212630
If gaymers have at least a 290/390 or a 970, I don't know why they should upgrade for this mid range card.
>>55212758
Well yeah if they already own THOSE cards. But for just about anyone else it's a pretty sensible upgrade.
>>55212783
most people own those cards m8
>>55212573
It helps that the 980ti was what, nearly twice as expensive?
>>55212758
You only have to check Steam stats to know that 93% of gamers don't
>>55212395
Is this like when Microsoft said it sold many xbox ones, but never released shit?
>>55212815
Your definition of most is a little off
Hello i dont give a fuk
>>55212822
The 970 is the most popular card on Steam
>>55212573
NShitya is the Apple of graphics cards.
>>55212573
The 1070 isn't even 10% faster than a 980 Ti though. It's 0% faster and they trade blows depending on the game. People are just fucking dumb.
>>55212874
steam survey is bugged
unless you think that radeon 360 is the most popular amd card on steam..
>>55212908
Most people are poor. Truth.
>>55212908
nah, more like with NV/Intel laptops because Optimus
>>55212874
"Most popular" isn't equivalent to "most people have it". It just means it's the most common card out there, but that 93% of people have a card that's not those cards.
Ergo, most people have weaker cards.
>>55212947
by your definition then a 770 should be the most popular since nvidia themself said 80% of their users are still on maxwell 1.0 and kepler..
>>55212966
why is it symmetrical? that does not make sense.
>>55213007
retard: the post
>>55213026
Well sorry if I don't follow stocks and shares bud.
>>55212815
Desktop AIB users who are not on prebuilts comprise like 1% of the entire computing market.
Something like less than 3 million people world wide spend $300 or more on a GPU. I imagine that for the >$5-600 market those numbers are incredibly smaller.
So to say "most people" is an amazing amount of bullshit when nearly 4 times as many people own weaker, cheaper, and/or older cards.
>>55213141
The PC gaming market is MINISCULE. The console market is probably bigger. Nvidia might have a popular GPU but it's smelling in the thousands not millions or even 100's of thousands. Most people I know don't even have a GPU in their PC's just the onboard graphics. Basically Nvidiots are blowing a small horn (cock) about a relatively minor victory on Nvidia's part. Let's see the numbers on AMD sales of midrange cards in the coming months and compare numbers (not prices) then.
>>55212573
>sell 980 ti before 1070 launch make ~600$
>buy 1070 at launch for profit ~200$
>oh yeah and along with this money its noticeably faster than my 980 ti
Lol yeah what a fucking idiot
>>55213203
Nobody cares.
>>55213190
>console market is probably bigger.
AMD don't make a lot of money with consoles tho. Read the last financial report...
>>55213255
Didn't say they did. Not my point.
>>55213190
sure dude whatever you say

>>55213190
>Most people I know don't even have a GPU in their PC's just the onboard graphics.
Most people I know don't like the red sticker on the computer.
>>55213291
My comment stands. A few million gamers out of billions of humans on this planet.
>>55213348
you're a complete dipshit
>>55213348
it's true that even among PC gaming "enthusiasts" many of them buy prebuilt, but these are cards that every prebuilding manufacturer will want to put in their computers and as a result many people will end up owning them
if these cards weren't profitable they wouldn't be made, and if the enthusiast market wasn't profitable it wouldn't be targeted
>>55213063
Are you fucking serious?
It's market share percentage.
Nvidia fan
>'I'm rich and can afford the most powerful GPU out there' Waves penis.
AMD fan
>I'm not so rich so I can only afford a midrange GPU that still gives reasonable performance at a certain resolution. Why are you waving your penis at me? Are you some kind of faggot?'
>>55213550
I see that yes. I still don't understand why it is exactly symmetrical though considering the AMD numbers are not 'half' of Nvidia's numbers. It makes AMD look like it's doing a lot worse than it actually is which is what Nvidia fans like to do I guess.
>>55213555
Buying a $600 toy is being rich now?
>>55213610
Relatively speaking.
>>55212699
You're right, pre-builts and shittops are full of AMD.
>>55213610
I need that flaunting wealth image.
>>55213587
I genuinely don't understand what you're saying. The Y axis keeps equal numbers, and it makes perfect sense - if nVidia has 75% market share, then AMD must have 25% (give or take one or two percent due to Intel or whatnot). That's shown on the graph.
>>55212443
I'd actually be very interested if we could get accurate numbers for a comparison there. No doubt the RX 480 will sell more units, but I want to know if the increased price ends up balancing it out.
>>55213615
Not relatively even if you live in shitholes, save up for a few months and yoi got it.
Yay, rich.
>>55213638
Yeah I see it now based on the scaling figures. I'm just tired and really don't give a shit fampai. Enjoy your overpriced cards though.
>>55213203
>>sell 980 ti before 1070 launch make ~600$
In what universe are idiots paying that much for used, outdated hardware?
>>55213661
> Enjoy your overpriced cards though.
Nigga I'm gonna be buying the 480
>>55213654
>No doubt the RX 480 will sell more units
It will sell in larger numbers simply because they can ship more then ten fucking videocards per country.
>>55213555
>>'I'm rich and can afford the most powerful GPU out there'
Oh yeah nigga you so rich. Like a fucking 10 year old fanning himself with a bunch of singles.
>>55213658
I don't like paying out a lot more for ever decreasing increments though. If the 1080 did 120 FPS @ 4K for the same price I'd be all over that shit (well maybe if I had the cash but I don't right now). It's like audiophiles buying expensive headphones for small increments in sound quality IMHO.
Maybe I will look into it again next year.
>the honda civic is better than the porsche 911 cause you have a better hp per dollar :^) XD

You faggots creamed yourselves with the 750Ti. Fuck off newfags.
>>55213928
>750Ti
I still have my 290x
>>55213962
I have a 7870
>>55213692
That doesn't mean you have to be rich to buy a $600-700 graphics card ever 2 years or some shit.
>>55212395
But they only made like 50 cards
>>55213991
And why are you so edgy about my post?
>>55214000
not rich, but extremely wasteful considering how marginally improved your gaming experience is compared to someone who spends $300 every 3 years.
Spending $700 on a GPU does not make console ports any less shit.
>Why should I care what other people buy?
>$900
lol
I have a 1 year old 750 Ti, and don't care about graphics. Is the 480 still worth upgrading to? I only have a 300 watt PSU but the 750 works with no problems.
>>55214056
How "extreme" the waste is depends on what sort of disposable income you have over the useful lifetime of the device you buy. Again, you don't have to be rich for $700 over 2 years to not be a big deal at all and as such not worth sacrificing performance over.
Last time I bought graphics cards I decided to take the cheaper option and the end result of that was that the money I saved sat in my bank account for 2 years and I got to slam my head against shit drivers when trying to enjoy my hobby for that period of time. Can't say I'm too happy about my decision at this point.
>>55214121
> don't care about graphics
Then why are you asking. Wait until you feel like you actively need an upgrade, and then consider your options at that time.
>>55214121
I think the 460 is for you. It's probably less than a $100 and it's what was competing with the 950 on that booth several months ago.
>>55212821
and still faster then a 1070
>>55214184
>>55212395
>Reports from the industry suggest that NVIDIA is having excellent success with their GeForce 10 series cards as most of their high-end products are sold out everywhere in the retail market.
What a fucking click bait article. Their "best" guess is based on the fact there is no stock? Give me a break.
>Selling Excellent
>Baiting retards with """"FOUNDERS EDITION"""" cards and artificial scarcity
>Retards actually buying from scalpers
>>55212750
>RGB graphics card
Is the 950 any good? Are they planning on releasing a 950Ti sometime soon? Gonna need a new gpu, my GTX 285 is about to go out any moment. Starting to get artifacts even after lowering the refresh rate on both the gpu and the monitor.

>Are they planning on releasing a 950Ti sometime soon?
No Nvidia is done with Maxwell
>>55213291
Irrelevant really. Not everybody who bought GTA V owns a high end graphics card. That market is tiny. Even in these "massive" sales of Nvidia's, we're talking about a few thousand units. There are 40m+ PS4s out there alone. PCs will never be as big as consoles. Get over it, fatty.
>>55213676
Maybe he thinks it's overpriced.
He'd probably be right, Graphics card prices are inflated to shit.
>>55214985
> not building your own graphics cards from scratch, including mining all the requisite minerals yourself
stay pleb
>>55214610
Wait a week and get a 460.
>>55214206
That's base clock. There's literally no one that compares benchmarks with an overclocked 980ti. It's always a reference at base clocks. They wouldn't get nvidia bucks if they did since dumb 980ti users wouldn't throw away another $400-500 for nothing.
Does the 1070 have any known issues, specifically driver issues? I just got my 1070 yesterday and a few of my games doesn't recognize the card. GeForce experience recognizes it though and the latest drivers were installed without a problem so I'm wondering if its the card having issue or the games.
>>55212395
My EVGA 1080 FTW shipped tonight. Excited to upgrade from a 660ti@1080p to that at 1440p 144hz.

>>55215914
Late July at earliest. Amazon's shipment for preorders is currently sitting around mid July. This launch has been fucking weird, even for a paper launch.
Why are you complaining about a graphic card when you can have it for free ? There is no VBV/3DS on Nvidia's website
Enjoy

No they dont. Just wait for the new drivers to gimp the 980ti
>>55212966
What happened in 2010 and 2014?
>>55212562
Yep, I am one of those. Preordered a Vive, have a 770GTX, damn Vive came months early(nice, but unprepared to use it really) can limp through some shit so tasted it already. 1080GTX's out now, of course sign me up. I don't want to crossfire shit, some of what I run doesn't like that so passed on AMD cheaper option. Was one of the few to get a FTW ordered and it is already shipped.
>>55212596
I do okay and can afford my big boy toys. A/V, PC, Guns, Car/Home shit. I already got girls and I live in Washington, drugs are legal here..so got that covered already.

I got mine for sims, and the ones I use it works great for already..and the porn is nice. But anything else, just gravy baby.
>>55212395
>>55215950
it's not a paper launch, they're just selling them faster than they are producing them. it's not like AMD's last paper launch where it took them a full quarter before the card was even available to the public, you can easily find price gouged and goyim edition 1070/1080s.
>>55217101
>2014
750ti and 970
>>55217101
rebrands. every time AMD tanks market share it's usually because they put out a lackluster product or rebrands.
>>55217247
People seem to forget that Nvidia also rebrands all the time. They last did it with the 700 series and there wasn't much conundrum. AMD did it twice, however, and it was bad timing since Nvidia brought in the hypetrain that was a high end card for $350.
I'm guessing all of the RX400 cards will be new, with Polaris looking to wreck everything in the current GPU market. I don't think they'll rebrand Hawaii again or try to do it with Fiji, but what do I know about that?
>>55217309
>They last did it with the 700 series and there wasn't much conundrum.
that was well over 3 years ago, novideo hasn't launched any rebrands since then
> I don't think they'll rebrand Hawaii again or try to do it with Fiji, but what do I know about that?
they'll probably keep selling the fury cards seperate from the rest of the lineup, it would be dumb not to considering the fury x2 just launched a month ago and still isn't available to the general public.
>>55212395
>More Volume Shipped Than High-End Maxwell
People are still buying 980/980ti? Are they fucking idiots?
>>55217309
There is no reason to rebrand Hawaii. Its a large, expensive chip which needs a giant cooler to run.
Polaris will sell extremly well, 980 and above performance @150W for 220 €. Perfect for any 1080p gamer. Nvidia doesn't have anything to compete yet.
>>55212395
>>55212395
Let me translate it from corporate speech:
"we don't sell enough, investors will worry we can't have stock fall now or production will suffer let's start rumors to keep stock up"
everyone does that, if you watch companies it happens only when something is wrong, they usually keep quiet when everything is fine
>>55218099
Pretty much this. No company just blabs 'we are doing really well!' unless there is a confidence issue. They also only admit something is wrong at the very last moment.
I smell a rat.

It's funny how many "explanations" you can find for this in this thread. It sure is difficult to admit that nvidia is doing well.

but when an nvidia card is the faster ones "that an oc its not stock, you cant compare oc cards"
>>55212821
What? It's almost as expensive.
>>55212891
Did people really expect it to be much faster than the last generation's flagship? More like they expected it to have the same performance for half the price.
>>55214737
really, game ready pcs i want to say out number consoles, may not be max settings pcs, but still.
pc gaming is growing, again. the consoles can have what ever exclusives they want for now.
>>55217192
not hard to do when you make 200 cards
and are you referring to the 200's
coin miners literally bought every single fucking one of them from the 280 up, along with the old stock of 7850's up.
they kept buying them till the amount of electricity they were using mining on a gpu cost more then they were making from the cards, then flooded the market on used.
>>55217101
amd had easily some of the best if not best cards for gaming, the 500~ line was good for cuda applications, 6000 and 600 were a meh gen, then the 7000 were another fucking hit, then the 290 and 90x were amazing but stuck on to large a node, then nvidia dropped the 900 bomb
the reason why amd didn't have market share?
marketing, that it.
i read an article stating how poor the 1080's selling was and how it will be demolished once the 480 comes out and 2 480s destroy 1 1080 for $200 less
>>55217406
the fury is a massive ass chip, getting rid of the stock by finally putting out the furyx2 and ending production in favor of ramping up to vega, or they will keep production of the furyx2 till vega is finalized and goes mass production.
as for out right rebrands, amd got fucked over on the node... fury was built for 20nm that fell through so it fucked from the get go, certain applications can use all it has to offer, but not dx11 games.
honestly doubt that we are going to see another rebrand from amd till after navi.
and nvidia wont rebrand their gpus just by virtue they can't abandon an entire gpu line up if they do.
>>55212562
except there's nothing except indie unity projects on the Vive
Even the Oculus's games are designed to run at 90fps on a 970/290
>>55215701
The 1070 is also on stock knobhead, oc it to 2ghz and you'll have a 15-20% more perfomance on the 1070.
>>55212541
Should get an r5 420 Ayy
>>55213622
They really aren't. Go outside, bruv.
I don't really get why people that have a 980ti are already upgrading, the card is barely a year old. I could understand if you're moving to 4k and need something stronger but it just seems silly to drop all that cash on a flagship card and not get at least 3 years out of it. I've had my 780ti now since November 2013 and I plan on getting a 1080ti when it comes out. By that point I'll have gotten 3 years out of my gpu. Am I wrong is saying that this is how it should be?

Sorry, did not see you were being sarcastic on 1st pass. But I see now..nice.
>>55219283
yeah ummm the price may have been a mile off on that statement.
What's a safe temp for a 1070 during gaming? I always get so paranoid with this shit. Was testing Witcher 3 maxed and it was hanging around 70 Celsius
>>55220261
82 is where it gets a bit tangled.
70s is fine my 1080 hangs at 72 now with the witcher3
>>55220261
>>55220270
Somewhat related, but how do you guys test temps while a game is running? I like to test it fullscreen since that's how I usually play it, so having it not windowed and with Speccy in the background doesn't let me see the temps. Alt tabbing over to Speccy in the background may not give accurate temps? is there a way to keep it in the foreground always?
>>55220291
MSI afterburner. It works on any gpu .
You can adjust fan speeds and what they kick in at what temp etc.
Also use it for overclocking but Im not tinkering with that
https://gaming.msi.com/features/afterburner
>>55220291
Also I use 2 screens, I dont think you can have it overlayed on 1 screen so the only way is dual
>>55215886
>he thinks a 1080 can do 1440p at 144
That's cute. The 1080 can baely handle 4K at 60hz, which is barely over twice the pixels of 1440p. You'll be lucky to get 90-100fps on reduced settings, assuming your CPU can keep up.
>>55220442
depends on the game and settings you cockmongling retard
>>55220442
My 290X can do WQHD at 144Hz. Guess why? Because they all CPU bottlenecked. You're going to turn off dynamic shadows and other CPU heavy settings by default. Even my OCed 5820K can't handle most games.
>>55220261
Temperature target on stock card is 82C as far as I know. I starts throttling to keep temp at 82C.
>>55219998
>I really don't get why people that have a iPhone X are already upgrading.
Same mentality.
A Fury X comes pretty close to a 1080 at half the cost.
>>55221816
haha lol kek
>>55221816
This bait fails because it's too obvious.
You should have said two 380s or something.
>>55212966
The 970 destroyed AMD.
Lets hope the RX480 is enough to at least save them.

Is it possible to use both a R390 and a R480?
>>55224089
possibly, but you would only get 390X2 speeds
>>55224122
Neat. Would it be faster than a 480?
I'm not going to get one until my 390 kicks it but I was just curios.
>>55224155
crossfire is always faster than a single card, as long as its supported. Otherwise you have stupid things like the 295X2 getting less frames than a single 290
>Selling Excellent
Okay mr businessman employee.
>>55224417
I don't think that should be happening, the 295X2 is clocked higher than the single GPU per board variant.
>why would you buy a mercedes when you can a nice honda
>can drive almost as fast and better bang for buck
Why won't poorfags understand that I don't give a shit about price performance ratio. Only raw power matters.
look at this shit
>>55224625
I know theres more but this is what im finding with my quick googling, swear there mightve been a bigger difference in another game but i cant remember it
>>55224787
despite it having SLI fingers in The Year of Our Lord MMXVI, it's actually a lot less ugly inside than out with the dented soda can looking shroud

>Cards are, on average, $300 more then US cards
>The only 1080's Newegg ever seems to have in stock for more then 5 minutes are AFTERMARKET REFERENCE MSI cards
>Literally nothing else has ever been in stock
Meanwhile Newegg US has twice the number of cards and seems to hold stock a hell of a lot longer. Its bullshit.
I know everythinh's out of stock and inflated right now but I want to find a link to a regular edition of the 1080 because I don't see what founder's edition actually adds warranting 100 dollars.
And everything on newegg is all founder's edition, and I've found some that do not have that in the title yet are even more expensive
>>55228994
do you live in BC? The US used to have claims there. So you could try and petition for annexation.

>AFTERMARKET REFERENCE MSI cards
explain to a retard why this is bad
it's just a different cooler right?
>>55215914
If you're persistent and keep that nowinstock.com page open you can probably find one within a few days of waiting, or at least I did
>>55229160
>nowinstock.com
you lied to me
>>55229110
Reference coolers, as a rule of thumb, run hotter. So if you want to overclock or do anything GPU intensive, you'll have a really warm card.

Games released prior to the 1070's release won't recognize it. Just adjust your settings manually. Should be able to max almost any game on the market at 1080p
Can't complain. Didn't even touch any OC settings
>>55219211
he's talking about the fury x and fury non-x which were not available at all during q3 of last year.
>WHY PEOPLE ARE SO KEK??????

>>55230799
A 1070 is literally 10-20 fps lower than a 1080, it's the second best card to ever exist. If you get a good aftermarket 1070 you can close the gap to around 10 fps minimum.
No shit it can run any game 1080p. It can run any game 1440p 60fps without trying
>>55232435
Well, I'm actually having some doubts.
I wanna play GTA V at 1060p60 with all settings maxed and MSAA turned on. And so far, most benchmarks have shown that the 1070 can't do that. It drops below 60fps.
Is a 1070 overkill for 1080p/60hz gaming?
I had been waiting for these Pascal cards to drop to replace my 660ti, but now I'm not so certain. 970 for $300 or a 1070 for $400+?
>>55232648
Of course you dummy. RX480, no contest. Even the RX470 might manage it.
>>55212443
There's a graph in a tech magazine I bought showing that 30% of gpu consumers buy in the 250-350€ area. This thing will sell incredible well.
>>55232648
780ti would be enough honey
Some damage control.
Why are so many people buying a 1080? Titan x and fury X still can compete.
>>55212626
I wish this was true. I haven't been able to buy a 1080 because they're sold the fuck out
>>55232568
>Muh maxed MSAA
>>55232990
Nobody should be buying a 1080, the performance gain is pretty shit and the price is retarded. You can always get a 1070 when they eventually drop in price if you really need extra perfomance.
>>55212583
>Europe
>relevant
Nvidia clearly only cares about the US market.
>>55233000
Not even maxed. Even just MSAA 4X is enough to cause dips below 60fps.
>>55233010
Nobody should be buying any current nvidia gen. The performance for the prices they want is hilarious. 650€ (about 580$) for a 1080 and 450€ (380$) for a 1070 would have been reasonable pricing.

I'm going through the RMA process with my 1070 right now because only one displayport port works. I'm not 100% sure it was the graphics card, but a while after installing it I got a warning about a power surge on booting up and some of the LEDs on my computer wouldn't turn off when the computer was turned off until I removed the displayport cable, and I also couldn't boot it back up without removing and plugging back in the displayport cable as well. So what I'm thinking is the graphics card caused a power surge that severely disabled my motherboard. I'm hoping I just got a bad unit and this isn't some widespread problem.
>>55220442
My 1070 gets around 100 to 120 fps at 1440p.
>>55224089
Only in dx12 games that support multiple GPUs, so basically just Ashes of the Singularity for now.
>>55212659
>and the drivers reputation
Listen bud, I have a 980 and 368.39 freezes the fuck out of PC even on stock clocks.
Stock settings with no additional overclocking whatsoever.
No Bsod, no TDR, no error, no warnings nothing. You'd be even working on fucking notepad for christ sakes and the PC just freezes in place.
The only way to unfuck it up is with a hard reset. Every time that happens you risk corrupting your HDD.
Fuck this nonsense

So the PC market is shrinking, but the high end PC market is growing. I think that what is happening to the PC market is happening to movie theaters. Streaming services like Netflix have reduced the amount of people going to see movies because they can just wait and view it at home. So a lot of movie theaters are responding by upgrading their viewing experience. Literally all of the theaters by my house except one have done that by upgrading their seats, offering actual meals during the movie, etc etc. And for the PC market, all the casuals are moving to tablets and convertibles so all that's left for the desktop market is the higher end. I think this is why AMD said they're targeting first time buyers at the Polaris reveal (well not outright, but they said they wanted the next few million gamers to be PC gamers, which makes their intentions obvious), they want to compete with tablets and convertibles by making desktops and Polaris powered gaming laptops cheaper. I think it'll be a good short term strategy to get some cash flow for AMD, but they can't stick with it for long.
