Haha that’s been the AMD story when it comes to graphics in general.

I miss the old days when they released enthusiast products like the R9 295X2. Though that’s just the gaming enthusiast market in general declining (not that this happened organically though, it feels like a deliberate choice).

Ha! That was certainly a card you had to be an enthusiast to put up with, with its 500W TDP :)

I have many pleasant memories of keeping myself warm just by opening Witcher 3 on my R9 390.
