Nvidia is not worried about AMD's Vega architecture, with CEO Jensen Huang stating that their competitive position is not going to change.

Read more on Nvidia's competitiveness with Vega.
 
They had a monopoly in the 1070/1080 segment for a year now, of course they aren't worried and the monopoly phase got longer with every generation since the 7xx cards. AMD could release a 1080ti killer and nvidia wouldn't have to care, AMD gets to be a competitor for 6 months, then nvidia gets to do whatever they want to do when they release the 11xx cards.
 
Not at all arrogant. Their slowest gaming GPU (5th from the top in the line) is outperforming AMD's current super refined top card. They hold complete middle and up consumer market segment. AMD is struggling to compete with nVidia's 2 year old architecture, and Volta is coming. Tesla is holding firm in supercomputer and deep learning segment. All the software technologies that nVidia has. All the gaming development teams that work with nVidia technology. Many, many more upgrades, and new stuff that nVidia has in development. Years of work with VR and other companies. Gazillion of contracts. All that while AMD is struggling to make hardware. Many years will pass until AMD can contest nVidia as equal.
 
The pricing on gpu's from Nvidia is too high.:grr1: Amd just have to get some good bang for buck cards out there. If that happens Nvidia have to change their game.
 
I am no expert but consumer GPUs are probably the smallest part of nVidia's earnings. One supercomputer has ~ 20.000 Tesla GPUs. Why would they be worried about AMD trying to beat, what is essentially, scrap lying around the basement of their one generation old Tesla architecture. Few years back AMD was kinda slightly threatening Kepler, nVidia just pulled, at that time old, K20 Tesla chip out (K40 was already released), slapped a Titan badge on it and silenced the crowd.

They dump the prices when AMD releases stuff, AMD makes less profit and then a few months later they release their next gen cards, they are without competition and rake the cash in again. AMD doesn't dictate the prices, nvidia does.

haha. AMD shows us the Vega logo and says something vague like "It's pretty nice !".

TBH I think if they showed us the actual Vega specs it would be confirmed within ten minutes where the card will sit. Not that it hasn't been predicted roughly any way, but yeah, hand over them specs and it's all over.
 
I agree they shouldn't be to worried AMD while a bang for buck card can't complete with nvidia for top tier. I hope to be proven wrong but from whats been released so far AMD has a long way to go to force nvidia to lower prices due to competition

Watched a stream where they made a good point: that they spent 1 billion developing Volta; AMD can't compete with that plain and simple. While they are readying consumer Volta, AMD takes on basically at that point insignificant Pascal. Hoping for a better outcome but even their own teasers aren't pointing in that direction sadly.

At this point I can see AMD always being 1 gen behind Nvidia due to the sheer amount of R&D money Nvidia have.

Unless AMD find some magical formula, Nvidia will remain the manufacturer of top end enthusiast cards for the foreseeable future.

My point exactly. Bigger budget creates larger opportunities and thus could lead to leading products. And for a long it has. This may also be applied to the CPU front in AMD vs Intel. We need a healthier AMD or a third player on both the GPU and CPU front.
 
With each successive strong release from AMD they will claw back market share. Master plan and all that jazz. I'd love to be on the fly on the wall in Lisa Su's office, no innuendo meant. ;)

Ryzen 7 does not seem to have an impact on gamers.
Lets see when the 5's have been out for a while.

But if Intel still rocks the laptops, and server markets, then its an uphill battle for AMD.

It's far too early to gauge Ryzen's impact.

On a more anecdotal note, while I haven't seen very many Ryzen builds yet, I haven't seen many new Kaby Lake or X99 builds either. I think a lot of people are still quite happy with their 4670K's and 4770K's. Which is a shame because Ryzen trumps those CPU's in everything but gaming.

Actually now that memory incompatibilities are much better compared to launch, In some games the 1700 is beating out a 7700K.
