Still no sign of the game on GOG and developers are completely silent on the forum there. This doesn't look good.

Sounds like they want to poison ARM with more CUDA stuff. Not good.

I'd rather not go much higher than that. So hopefully AMD will have some card that's better than RX 5700 XT but isn't too power hungry. I don't need 4K performance.

Quoting: GuestWell, they probably will have a card at a power level you want, but it remains to be seen whether that will be at a performance level you want. As long as their silicon can take it and they can slap a big enough heat sink on it, they'll probably have a 300+-ish watt unit at the top end to compete better with the 3080 and not leave performance on the table. So, if you don't want that, you'll have to take a lesser partFor example for Sapphire Pulse RX 5700 XT, power requirements are listed as 241 W.

Quoting: GuestI hope they will release GPUs that do not need too much power this time.Yeah, I hope they keep power usage in check and won't go after power creep like Nvidia did with new cards.

You can find some details about known hardware hazards:

And probably not all of them were found or worked around yet.

Quoting: The_AquabatI keep hearing about Navi being buggy, I haven't find bugs on my navi. Maybe I hit the silicon lottery? is there any documentation about the bugs? are there any workarounds?Yes, I expect it to be silicon lottery. Some get worse hardware than others. The point is, with first generation of microarchitecture, chances of getting bad hardware are higher.

I hope RDNA 2 / Navi 2 will be more polished than RDNA 1 release. Less hardware bugs and such. Surely looking forward to it.
On the CPU side though, those who already have high end Zen 2 CPUs probably won't be in a rush to upgrade.

Quoting: Liam DawePublisher said Windows only.
The game will be published on Windows only. It hasn’t been determined yet if it will support Linux (or Mac).At least they didn't say they won't make it, but it sounds like a regular non answer. What engine are they going to use? If it's something portable to Linux like with Ion Fury, then it would be a shame if they won't release it.
