alessandroAMD confirms Radeon GPU sales have nosedived
GrindingGearsWoulda bought one of those 7900xtx’s, if I could friggin have found one.
That maybe might have something to do with why the sales are not so hot. Just sayin…
AnUnusualRelicWell, they have decided they’re only doing basic and mid-tier cards now, tough luck.
(Why? Who knows.)
I went with a 4070ti, and honestly this is my last time building a gaming PC, because I just don’t see the advantage anymore vs just buying a PlayStation for like 1/4 of the cost.
Well, you can do a lot more things with a PC. Also, I’m playing Fallout 3 again on my Steam Deck and while it works fine, it’s really super inconvenient compared to a mouse and keyboard (but my machine has no place to go until the renovation work is done at home, so the Deck is it for now).
But they’re both fine, just not suited to the same things.
In my personal case a PS5 would be just fine. I spent a pile of money building an overpowered gaming PC, I’m in my 40s, work too much and have young kids, in retrospect it was kind of stupid. Should have just bought the PlayStation, but anyways, what do you do. It is fun to build and troubleshoot/fine tune them, I do enjoy that part. And I do get the appeal for others that want to mod and the like, it’s just not personally that applicable.
