Broken Silicon's next guest will be Bryan from Tech YES City!  This should be a fun talk centering on an eclectic set of subjects:

RTX 4090, 4080, and Lovelace in general

Nvidia's GPU Dominance, and what could cause them to lose it

RDNA 3 and RADEON's Future

Intel ARC

Upcoming CPU Architectures

Bryan is excited to have some in-depth discussions about what makes these companies successful, and what we expect out of their future products.  Please feel free to ask about the Gaming Market as a whole or any upcoming CPU Architectures MLID (or others!) have leaked!

You have until Sunday Morning (11/13) US Central time to submit your questions/comments below!  Use good grammar, be as concise as possible, and be respectful to be considered.

Howdy Tom and Bryan. Given AMD/Radeon is really coming in hot with a MASSIVE price delta between them and Nvidia, what tricks do you think Nvidia will pull to push out their inventory and retain marketshare, especially with the 30-series? Will they just keep making price cuts and start heavily subsidizing retailers like AMD has been with AM5 and DDR5 kits? Or will their pride get the best of them and they lose huge chunks of marketshare to AMD? Personally, I feel AMD is ripe to mop the floor with Nvidia and make big strides in regards to their bad reputation for buggy drivers and inconsistency, but only time will tell.

Hey Tom and Bryan, My cousin is dipping his toes into rendering work, and I want to give him some recommendations for GPUs that won't break the bank, but also offer solid gaming performance if the render work doesn't pan out. What would be some good GPUs to look at in the $250-500 dollar price range, new or used?

Hello Tom and Brian, my question is for Brian, as a tech tuber who puts a lot of effort into the budget minded consumers (thank you for that) what are your thoughts on the seemingly mass exodus departure from companies in the budget space? In fairness intel still has the i3, but amd refusing to release budget chips and pricing the 7600x at 300 is honestly aggravating. Yes, I know people can still go am4 and LGA 1700 and that these companies aren't charities, but it still gets under my skin. Same with nvidia, thankfully the gpu market is flooded, who knows what we'd be dealing with if it wasn't.

Hey Tom and Bryan, what do you guys think about the rumor that navi 31 has a clock speed flaw causing horrific scaling a higher clock speeds. It would at least make more sense as to why AMD didn't shoot for the moon. With all of the effort they went through last gen to compete with the 3090. I just having a weird feeling about there product positioning this gen as if we're missing something

Samantha Vimes

Given the price point AMD has positioned itself around with the 7900XTX and 7900XT it's clear they are leveraging chiplets to go aggressive this generation. AMD also seems more than willing to cut their losses on their leftover stock and is cutting prices relatively early. I look at that from a business perspective and think AMD is trying to squeeze Nvidia while it's still holding warehouses of last gen cards. Would you agree with this take? If you think that's a reasonable assessment do you think this strategy is likely to be an effective way of taking market share/increasing relative margins? How might we see Nvidia respond?

Hi Tom and Brian. PSVR2, I'll be honest, very disappointed with the price. I'm not expecting them to lose money per unit, but I refuse to believe it truly costs x amount to warrant 549, absolutely refuse to. I was hoping to dip my toes into vr gaming for the first time but not at that price. Do you feel as if the price is appropriate? I'd rather buy another ps5 bundle for a different room than a vr device that can only be used by one system (to my knowledge) with a limited library currently. Any recommendations to other vr devices out right now around 300-400 USD at most, that make sense? Or should I wait another year or two, and believe me, I don't mind waiting.

Samantha Vimes

Lovelace's expensive dies and elaborate cooling seem to indicate that RDNA3's pricing advantage might be even stronger than we expected. How competitive does RDNA3's performance have to be at each tier to effectively price Nvidia out of the market? If raster performance is relatively equal would AMD need to offer a 10% savings? 25%? What do you think it would take? Do you think AMD is willing to play that game?

Brian Steiner

Hi Tom and Bryan. How is the current economy situation affecting your PC business? I was wondering whether the deals you're able to get for gpu's is a double-edged sword because the demand for the PC's you're building is weak because of inflation and depression we're in.

Ryzza5

Hi Tom and Bree-an (since Tom apparently has a hard time pronouncing Y's) :) What in your opinion has to happen for AMD to outsell Nvidia enthusiast GPUs during the current or an upcoming generation in the next few years? Is this the best chance AMD is going to have for a while?

Timo H

Hi Bryan, as you are aussie and 2021 supply was especially bad, even "3rd world country" level for gpus, how is it looking now there as demand should be all time low in past 2 years? Looking both amd and nvidia (who recently started throttling supply aggressively). Amd in viewpoint that sometimes their supply to europe or other regions is spotty at best, perhaps due to lack of distributor channels or lower quantities than nvidia overall(looking both rdna2 current cards and rdna3 looking forward). I remember you said in 2021 in used market people overwhelmingly favored nvidia cards despite amd cards offered better pricing even then.

Timo H

Hi Bryan and Tom, as you've both likely seen anecdotes and memes of chinese gpu flood being even bigger than in US, ie street seller selling gpus by roadside like tomatoes, could you compare how this is visible in US and Australia or is it visible at all? I'm curious because Australia is shorter distance from China than US and at least had lot of trade and shipments going back and forth between australian and chinese port cities, that shipping could have been easier and faster than to europe or US. Europe has now pretty high customs(for regular person) in nearly all countries to buy things from US or other outside places, also UK + shipping times have been 5-6weeks from China even before covid times(this greatly varies where you live in europe of course, as near major ports no extra ship cargo route is needed, which can be another week eg. from Rotterdam on smaller 'feeder ship'). As background, china had substantial amount of mining farms (hashpower) in global scale so they should have huge number of gpus, also asics, but for ethereum before merge mostly gpus, so all those are perhaps gone to used market somewhere in world.

chippi

Big Fan of you both, why would anybody buy a 7900xt if you can get a 7900xtx for just 100$ more. Greetings from Germany Chippi

PCDog

Hey Tom and Bryan, Does the 7900xtx need to beat the 4080 in ray tracing in order to take market share in that segment?

Hello Bryan and Tom, will AMD be serious about the professional use of their RX 7000 GPUs? Last year, when I finally got my hands on an RX 6800 I was kinda disappointed by the lack of support in the machine learning domain. On github, AMD were constanly saying that they were working on their drivers, but as far as I know they never got around to release official support for RDNA1 or RDNA2 consumer GPUs. Very frustrating for me and others in the community. Will this change with RDNA 3? Looking forward to your episode

QuickJumper

Hey Tom and Bryan do you think RDNA4 will finally get on par with the RTX4000 series in terms of Ray Tracing? I think this is one of the few features that's holding them back from getting more mindshare from Nvidia.

steve perry

Hi tom, can you ask bryan what it's like to be big down Under? also what his favourite beer is, and why is it xxxx gold?

Chris Rijk

Hi Tom and Bryan, how much importance do you attach to product names compared to their price and performance? Would a different combination of numbers and letters in the name change your buying decision? If Nvidia had kept the bad naming of the 4080 12GB but had priced it reasonably, do you think they'd still have been forced to "unlaunch" it?

Falto

After amds reveal what can we except for pricing with 4070s?

Keith Moore

Two of the many YouTube creators I have watched in regards to the RX7900XTX performance have explicitly said we should not expect outstanding performance at 1440P. The reasoning behind the reduced speeds at the lower resolutions had to do with limitations of the chiplet design. I realize most of the content regarding the new AMD cards are speculation but I would like to hear your thoughts.

Hal Richard

First Patreon Comment. Have either of you seen the FSR 3 vs DLSS 3 comparison using a 13900k and a RTX 4090 at 4k ? Its out there. The comparison shows equal frame rates and FSR being either indistinguishable or just slightly favoring DLSS 3. If you havent I would suggest you do a YT query. If you have then please give us your opinions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rygLgIj1024

Is raster performance hitting a wall? Do you guys think RDNA4 and Blackwell will be the last generation with a sizable raster performance increase?

MelodicArmor

Hi Bryan! Welcome to the show! In your time back in Japan, have you looked into the DIY Techtube space? I recently started there because I am learning Japanese so I figured, "meh why not interact with some of the techtube space there." What I have thus far is that the interest is slow but seems to be growing nevertheless. A lot of times there are not first, but maybe second, in terms of regions to get product reviews. If you don't mind, I would like your perspective on the topic. Thanks in advance.

Hristo Kolev

Do you think that AMD will release 7950X with 3d cache? What would that mean for their next flagship CPU? Will it compete with their cache'ed up 7950X? Does 3d cache work well with 2 CCDs?

Treble Sketch

Hi Bryan! Fellow Aussie here, am wondering what do you think the differences are when it comes to selling/buying 2nd hand tech vs how it's done in other nations (US/EU)? Loved to watch your videos regarding 2nd hand parts but do wonder what have you heard from your other viewers about their own local 2nd hand buy/sell situation, since I've had American friends shocked that I'm so relaxed about getting things 2nd hand. And the 2nd question, do you think we'll ever see more local manufacturing/independece of tech products that can be localised within Australia? Especially with the macroeconomics situation, would Australia having our own manufacturing in close partnerships to foster a local industry with future products to really help with how overall weak position in advanced manufacturing (since we're really only either a tourism or minerals/ores nation atm). Many thanks!

I’m curious whether Smart Access Memory is a compelling reason to get Radeon over Geforce for a 5800x3D user trying to game at 4k120hz.

Max Eliaser

all these performance enhancing features like SAM go into the final benchmark results at the end of the day, so you can just rely on those, as long as the benchmarks are of a config you're interested in.
