Nvidia has moved to a 1yr cadence from 2 yr cadence due to AMD RDNA2, RDNA3,RDNA4 - cadence of 1yr each
 
they also have to compete with Intel who will also be moving to 5nm (they bought up 5nm from TSMC too)

my EVGA RTX 2080 did not just drop dead so i can sit on the sidelines and see what floats by

I think something like this will happen. the 6900 xt will complete with the 3090 at half the cost and clearly beat the 3080 in the process. Nvidia will shortly counter with a 7nm based 3080 TI that will be 30-40% faster than the 3080 and will cost $1200-1500 and blow AMD clear out of the water.

Next week is when AMD speaks about video cards

Does not add up.

Doesn't matter, it's all paper anyway. The 3080/3090 launched over a month ago, and they can barely meet 5% of demand, if that. NVidia are so far behind with supply that any 3070 released over the next month will likely not be available until well into 2021, with the exception of maybe a couple of hundred cards released to keep people hoping they have a chance. This is a huge opportunity for AMD to take a big bite of market share if they have a good supply come launch day on 10/28.

Supply & demand. Right now NVIDIA have no supply to meet the demand... all AMD has to do is have cards available & they're going to win this GPU gen in a landslide.

I read that the NVIDIA story is completely bogus about what they are producing.... and that the latest estimate was that they are only meeting somewhere between 5-7% of orders places by e-tailers/ retailers .
 
AMD can definitely come up huge here if they have any stock at all during launch through Christmas ..

Nvidia has quietly did this on a few previous series where they change out the GPU without changing a card name. At most is you'll see a minor change on product SKU. The devil is in the details, so it pays to research specific cards for specs.
 
People also need to make up their minds about the story of GPU supply. Either the retail prices dropped so much for 3000-series vs 2000-series because of good yields out of Samsung, or the yields are so bad they're hedging their bets with TSMC. It can't be both.
 
My thoughts on AMD. My guess is they could of paper launched already and it would of turned out like Nvidia did this launch, so they're sitting on it till they can do it right. The best lessons are learned by watching someone else screw up epicly and knowing enough to avoid that same fate.

I'd pay $999 for a 3080 Super/Ti FTW3 Hybrid right now.  $799 next year.
