AMD repeats the New Horizon event, this time not presenting any AMD Vega graphics card, not even letting them see it, just a video of a few seconds where it says AMD Radeon RX Vega and a shabby shirt with the Vega logo.
When one thought that it was not possible, that with NVIDIA blowing in the neck with the GTX 1080Ti and with the forecast of the NVIDIA Volta for the end of the year and after the hype for the AMD Ryzen processors, having everything in favor to present the graphics card AMD Radeon RX Vega, goes and presents nothing AMD. After more than an hour and a half of talk and totally irrelevant performance tests, we have been left with absolutely nothing, since AMD has done it again and has not presented anything.
During a moment of the presentation or pointless talk, the Sniper elite 4 was seen moving in 4K resolution on two different computers. In the first team there was an AMD Ryzen processor and a RX 480 and the game was moving at 4K with 30FPS, while in the other team there was also an AMD Ryzen processor and two RX 480 in CrossFireX, moving the game in 4K and approximately at 60FPS. The normal thing is that showing this, then you take out a RX Vega and move the game 4K @ 60FPS, but the logic is still elusive with AMD.
The AMD New Horizon event, which lasted half an hour, was a game of trileros, showing the ball and then, Where is the ball? We did not see the processor, they only told us that it was there, as they could have said today that the graphics card with the Vega GPU was there, but not for those. They have not given data, which is what was interesting, since a possible AMD Vega graphics card does not have the least frequency data, graphics cores or amount of HBM2 memory, among others.
You might think that I'm tough on AMD, just like I was tough on NVIDIA when at CES 2017 they touted the presentation of the GTX 1080Ti, which was then ready to go on the market and they did not present, because AMD did not present Vega. AMD has now not introduced Vega and NVIDIA can no longer go back on this case and not introduce the GTX 1080Ti, because it makes it clear in the code and presentation on GeForce.com, that they are going to introduce this graphics card.
AMD has generated many expectations and meets them, at least with Ryzen, the problem is the supply of processors, since in Spain, at the moment, THERE ARE NO AMD RYZEN PROCESSORS, when it should be days that there was already stock in computer stores and no medium has a processor, they have only given it to YouTubers and AMD's strategy with Ryzen is the worst in history. The problems are not only AMD with the stock of Ryzen, is that motherboard manufacturers have problems to supply motherboards and manufacturers of heatsinks, the same.
Of course, AMD was forced to hit the table and return to the field of play after being very missing, leaving Intel free, something that has hurt us all, because Intel has put the price it has wanted on its processors. The rush is causing only three of the seventeen AMD Ryzen processors to go on sale, hitting and with supply problems, some stores have even announced that they have already exhausted the stock of processors. An important world chaos that AMD has generated.
And what does AMD have to do with motherboard manufacturers not having stock? By God, what to read ...
But it is that apart from the problems that AMD has with the stock of its processors, it is added that the suppliers of plates and heatsinks are not supplied either. The problem is for the consumer.
Or did I misunderstand the news?
The problem is that AMD does not have processors, motherboard manufacturers are barely being able to distribute them and they hardly have boards for marketing, in fact MSI Iberica does not have motherboards for media.
Are the arguments a joke or are they serious?
It is certain that AMD has manufactured 1M of high-end mics.
It is certain that these mikes perform better than the competition and at a much lower price.
It is certain that the launch of the different ranges of microphones will be done in batches.
They leave much to be desired guys, for once be objective, they are very much in evidence but the blow is already given, only you are not realizing the revolution that AMD is generating
We have confirmation from stores that they have not received processors, brands do not have media boards, MSI is not even sure to be able to sell motherboards tomorrow and on top of that there is a problem with some cooler adapters, which do not adapt well. They are data. If you want to close your eyes and not see things, it is your problem, not ours. We will see if AMD revolutionizes something or hits it for running more than necessary.
A minute of silence for an INTEL FANBOY ...
Those of us who know about computer science, we have the knowledge that RYZEN will be the before and after the evolution of CPUs, and Intel will start a dirty campaign in the market with youtubers, etc. And if you doubt the quality of RYZEN, INTEL has already lowered its prices to US $ 200 in online stores, and answering your question about the adaptation of the processor slot with the coolers, the only official Cooler is the CORSAIR one so far, the others do not have an exact mold to be launched before the processor came out, they took the mold from the motherboard and not from both (board + CPU) so some of them don't fit perfectly.
I'm not a fan of any, but I already bought my GigaBYTE X370—– XD board. (QUALITY AND PRICE IS THE EQUATION OF THE FUTURE)

Don't be offended, but I bet you what you want that in a head-to-head, I'll beat you with the cap. I've been in this for many years and I have plenty of experience. I am surprised by that brother-in-law, those people who think they know something and really don't have the slightest idea. Intel lowers prices and it is normal, because when you have no competition, you set the prices higher to earn more in less time and then you can reduce profits. It is basic economics. Although, I also have to say that this entry is about AMD Vega, not about Intel and Ryzen.
Everything seems to indicate that Ryzen will be a good product, but I don't know what to think about Vega, I don't feel very safe with Vega.
