I think that's where short-sighted financial gain leads AMD to. Where's the money? -- datacenter. So let's focus the good stuff on datacenter exclusivelly. What about "the rest" (gamers, hobbist, students)? There's no money there, let's give theme crap RDNA that we make sure can't be used for any real work; just pretent we're catering for their needs.

I think their "consumer GPU" did so bad recently that AMD could just as well, you know, simply liquidate the "consumer GPU" division and stop pretending.

I'm in the "consumer GPU" market myself; what AMD GPU do I buy today? -- Radeon Pro VII, launched in 2020 and the best AMD consumer GPU I can find today.

It's such a divide. I could optimize my software for such powerful GPUs as the Mi300 line.. but why do that, given that probably I won't even see one such GPU in my lifetime.

The RX 7900s are pretty good. You get 24GB of RAM in a consumer GPU. If you're interested in GenAI that's a good offering for your "gamers, students, hobbyists" category.

And they announced a workstation version with 48GB: https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-Radeon-PRO-W7900-Dual-Slot

Indeed for me that's the only standout from this release, 48gb not too overpriced.

I’ve filed a detailed AMD Windows driver crash bug months ago that is getting totally ignored because all their devs have been moved to working on AI.
