Quoting: tuubiThe 5700 (XT) they brought out months ago was aimed at 1440p.

Resolution alone isn't the only factor. For example with TW3 (dxvk), 5700 XT doesn't fully use 2560x1400 / 144 Hz. I.e. right now it maxes out at around 80-110 fps. So depending on the monitor refresh rate, the card can be utilized fully and still not reach the potential maximum of the monitor.

Quoting: PikoloAnd they have their own Optimus-like approach, which Mesa might hopefully be able to support

Are they using 2 GPUs there? Why would they need something Optimus-like? And if anything, they are supporting PRIME, so you won't need anything special to use it in multi-GPU setup.

The style reminds an intro to Moonwalkers [External Link].

Quoting: ageresAMD used to release cards with more VRAM than Nvidia, but now they don't, and I'm kinda disappointed. I'd wait for a card with, like, 12 GB or more.

More VRAM is doable, but price will jump as well. Especially if it's HBM. So far GDDR and HBM especially didn't go down in price enough to allow more VRAM easily.

Quoting: mrdeathjrresuming this 5600 xt (2020 card) show similar performance around gtx 1070 (2016 card)

Performance gains are architectural steps. I.e. they can't just make a card with better performance without improving on RDNA. This 5600 XT is using the same microarchitecture as 5700/5700XT, so nothing unexpected here. The performance jump was from the start expected from RDNA2 cards.

Quoting: subNo big Navi announcement?
How disappointing. Really.
Especially as an announcement doesn't even mean it's around the corner.

They are likely still working on RDNA2. Would be nice to get something more powerful than 5700 XT, but not really at crazy prices that approach $1000. I suspect their immediate "big Navi" is aiming at replacing Radeon VII which is going to be very expensive.

If I ever get CP 2077 it would be native (not sure if CDPR will ever do it, but Staida works leaves that chance) or in Wine. Not Stadia for sure.

I'd add Eitr [External Link], though there is no guarantee it will even come out.

Kick EA, they don't deserve your attention.

Quoting: The_Aquabat

The Witcher series - 70%-85% off. Pretty good price to get TW3 for Wine.

I have everything Witcher except the expansions to TW3. Are they worth getting?

Yes, surely get them. You'll get the GOTY edition automatically after that, so just use it instead.
