It's coming, Pelosi sold her shares like a month ago.

Yeah but only cause she was really disappointed with the 5000 series lineup. Can you blame her for wanting real rasterization improvements?

    Everyone's disappointed with the 5000 series...

    They're giving up on improving rasterazation and focusing on "ai cores" because they're using gpus to pay for the research into AI.

    "Real" core count is going down on the 5000 series.

    It's not what gamers want, but they're counting on people just buying the newest before asking if newer is really better. It's why they're already cutting 4000 series production, they just won't give people the option.

    I think everything under 4070 super is already discontinued

    You joke but there's a lot of grandma/grandpa gamers these days. Remember someone who played PC games back in the 80s would be on their 50s or 60s now. Or even older if they picked up the hobby as an adult in the 80s
