Should've been the launch prices. They need to stop thinking they can price their GPU's close to Nvidia and still grow a meaningful market share, They cannot.
Aswell as dominating the market, Nvidia have dominant mindshare of the market, AMD need to come in with products close to Nvidia's performance but vastly cheaper, It's the only way to win over potential customers.
Mindshare is a powerful thing, AMD needs to be smarter.

Just like they did with Ryzen (against Intel). They basically need to get that mindset which they had in that time into the GPU space.

That's a pipe dream. They don't have the funds to do that. Unlike Intel, Nvidia have not let off the gas and in fact have only pressed further down and capitalized off AMDs uncompetitiveness. Keep in mind since the early 2000s Nvidia has always had the mindshare of consumers. Even when they didn't deserve it. It's a hard thing for AMD to break.

I'm sure Intel thought the same thing.
It's not like AMD weren't ahead of both in the past so it's ignorant to expect it to not change things always do, cause Intel of the three are in the most trouble now, just look at the share prices over the years of all of them.
Intel have lost a huge part of there biz to AMD in lots of areas, so i expect nvidia is far more on point cause they see it even if many of you don't.
rdna4 is going to be okay but rdna5 onwards could see big changes, nvidia are aware of it.

They literally almost went bankcrupt before Ryzen and we don't know what's going on behind the scenes at all. And seeing how big AMD has grown to in just a few years time? Wouldn't surprise me to be honest.
Hard thing doesn't mean impossible. They've already done it once with Ryzen against Intel, which was already a giant in comparison at that time.
Yeah, just adding to what I wrote above essentially

Indeed. AMD's future in the GPU market is going to be in chiplets just like they did with Ryzen and all being well, For all of us, It's going to be a very competitive marketplace.

Even Nvidia is ready to go chiplet since there big new AI card is essentially 2 dies.
AMD have done a ton of leg work on things be it the fabrics or packaging for vcache etc.
Intel are the ones to worry about in a big way, they have lost so much of the market in terms of client and server and are going to lose a lot on laptops now, hence the need to use a fab for others and invest in new nm scale, if that fails it's really bad news for them.
Nvidia is going to be fine for a long time would have to be something massively drastic to happen in the next 20 years they have enough funds and eco system.
My feeling with AMD is so long as they continue to progress and catch up on hardware and software then nvidia in time will lose some market share.
I've had ATI cards in the past and earlier AMD cards but i hated the drivers back then, but the new drivers oh it's night and day difference for me I prefer them to nvidias and that was everyones major issue with AMD but it's changed.
Nvidia have dxr and dlss lead but that lead is more narrow than people think everything changes over time, before Ryzen when it was FX series no one ever expected AMD to bounce back.
They now have most client and think it's 45% of the server market and AI is a thing for them they can't make the MI300x cards fast enough, but that laptop market that Intel is very much reliant on these days is going to get hurt by strix halo, just bad news for Intel.
It's more and more likely that Nvidia will have the 0080/90 higher end of the market and AMD will dominate the lower end of the market but in 10 years time it's hard to say as so far AMD are doing far better than people want to admit.
Intel I'll give them there deserved going into the GPU space with nothing to start with is a hard thing they at least have supported the products and are a cheap option, but i just don't see them making progress into the larger market when so far behind, but being a gen behind for them is still quiet an achievement.
The single thing that would really hurt nvidia is when AMD have Hardware AI DXR advantage cause okay dlss is better than fsr but it's really not that bad it's dxr where they know they need to improve but once they do well Nvidia i expect will be forced to reduce prices.
