    Great!
    Hope it will stir up prices a bit soon. Wonder what GPU it will be, with RDNA or RDNA2?

    Whoa! :)

    So three cards at higher performance than the 5700xt.

    Should be 2 - with Ray Tracing.

    If they're priced well...

    If AMD had a bigger RDNA Navi chip, they would have surely been selling it already. It's a big investment to develop one, so they wouldn't just forget it unless it was a total failure. Hard to see AMD (or Nvidia or Intel) design a total failure with their extensive experience. And I mean a real failure on objective, not subjective terms, that is, not just what people would consider a failure against the tough competition (that has been happening lately a lot, but it's a different matter).

    Since AMD hasn't been selling anything bigger than 5700XT, I'd say it must refer to RDNA2 based stuff. If they still went with the original RDNA after all this time, it would be quite strange and would indicate the Radeon group is in an even deeper trouble than anyone would guess. It would be doubly strange because the designs for the next gen console APUs are more than finished and apparently based on RDNA2 at least loosely. If I've understood anything correctly.

    The future's looking bright on the GPU side too. If 2080Ti and above performance possible then I'd hope to expect Ngreedia's ampere pricing to be kept in check (as far as 'aggressive pricing' will go). Both also know there's a large group still to be tapped into who didn't take up Nvidia's eye-watering generous offer for their 2080/Ti.

    Strange to go into the '50's with the 5900 whatever that means other than making a slightly lesser 5900 later.
    Will be fun to see what these are. :)

    EDIT: Dual-RDNA 5990 perhaps. :D Not likely though.
    (RDNA2-X2? Pfft.)

    Eh multi-GPU isn't a big priority these days though it's not quite gone either.

    they missed the chance to name them 5850, 5870, 5970 etc, also that "XT" at the end is kinda annoying when there's no non-XT version anyway

    So they have a chance with 4 gpus to fight all RTX series with Ray Tracing enabled. Name scheme though if 2070S is equal with 5700XT, 5800 XT with raytracing should match easily 2080S.

    Question is though,

    these 5900 series all 3 mentioned gpus about competing with 2080TI and Ampere? If that's the case, AMD should not even care up to RTX 3080, they could eat 3060 and 3070 for breakfast.

    I foresee that NVidia is going to have hard time until RTX 3080Ti is out and dominate, if AMD is able to do and price it right.

    Finally! Nvidia needs competition on the high end market, so bring them on!

    We knew AMD will compete in high end again, Lisa said it quite some time ago. Im glad, with Intel coming in and Nvidia domination it will be really interesting year.

    Now if they can fix there drivers improvements on stability, and get a faster card then a 2080 ti then it might get interesting again.

    Hah, I started the last decade with the 5800-series, maybe I'll do that again.

    AMD is already for some time now much more stable drivers wise than Nvidia. Miss-information is strong here. Only software is bad, quite less options for power user, bloated, no nv-inspector like app.

    Great news! I'm really happy that AMD decided to stick with the current 5000 series instead of hopping to 6000.

    This spring/summer will be very interesting, as we will be able to see what AMD/NVIDIA/Intel has to offer.
