What are you most excited for?

[mplayerMuPDF]

They're called must haves. Just like to show off their best rig in the forums, and probably only use it for gaming. An i9/5950x for gaming is just pissing money up a wall.

I, too, like to show off my Richland dualcore laptop in the forums That 2.9 GHz base clock is still pretty high for a laptop CPU, right?

 

[damric]

All of these new products are exciting, really. It seems just like yesterday that they were saying PC gaming was dead, but it's better than ever now that availability is caught up.

 

[TheDeeGee]

Lookig forward to the RTX 4000 series.

Already have a good CPU, but my GTX 1070 is aging.

 

[jesdals]

Well actually Im most excited about november 26 - because then I have 8 weeks of vacation time comming

 

[CTCL]

Excited to see what comes with the new EPYC 9604 series.

 

[Yraggul666]

Excited for all of it or none of it, both fit, just going to grab my whiskey, enjoy my current AM4 setup and watch the carnage! \m/ Muahahaha

 

[1d10t]

My AM4 setup still served me quite well with everything I throw at it (VM, compiling), I'm just curios what RX 7000 bring to the table.

 

[ilyon]

Impressive. Even with 2 entries, AMS products seem more appealing than rest of the game.
A bit of happiness for me tonight: geek spirit remains alive.

 

[rainzor]

Yees, it's because the products are appealing, not because the other thing.

 

[Tomgang]

I am on for Zen 4 and rtx 4000. But given the economic situation here in Europe and the fact that I am mostly limited on the gpu front.

It will be rtx 4000 I am mostly looking for to, but because I am not going to be able to afford both zen 4 and rtx 4000 in this inflation he'll we have now.

I didn't vote on this for a bit, since nothing upcoming is exactly exciting, per se. But I am very interested to see what happens with AMD's 7000 GPUs. Nvidia's gotten somewhat predictable in that capability gen-on-gen usually gets a pretty good uplift, though pricing skewed up to match with the RTX branding. By contrast, AMD's been a bit of a wildcard. For 6000 series, the 6600 and 6800 were very strong performers, particularly in perf/W, against their green counterparts (when's the last time that happened?), and they suddenly had a presence at the legit high end with the 6900 XT. That hadn't been true since 2015. But then they dumped the 6500 XT and 6400 to a resounding "Meh" at best. I'm keen to find out if they can release decent cards at reasonable prices across the entire stack, including the low end, AND maintain the near-performance-parity they've managed to acheive with Nvidia.

 

[lexluthermiester]

Which one gets you up at night?

None of them get ME up.... That's what my wife does.

However, I am geniunely excited for the battle between 13X00 Intel and Ryzen 7X00 series CPU's!

 

[gasolina]

Im a bit curious about rx7000 ray tracing performance will it match turing or ampere level ? Since amd cant do ray tracing for years

 

[720p low]

I squeezed the trigger on the RDNA3 choice, not so much from a standpoint of excitement, but rather simply due to curiosity.

You know, while I realize that there is zero chance of this happening, but when the Ryzen 7000-series CPUs are officially launched on the 27th, if AMD wanted to really disrupt the PC gaming universe, it would be epic if Dr. Su would say, "Oh, I almost forgot to mention. You will see RX 7800 XTs on store shelves next week. They work really well with Zen 4." People would be leaping off bridges. One of them might be Jensen.

 

[gffermari]

They’ll disrupt the gaming universe if they finally deliver ray tracing performance as the competitor.
I don’t care if they’re available tomorrow.
They have to be competitive as they are with the Ryzens.

 

[zlobby]

This poll doesn't quite have the option that really excites me but I'll just roll with what's at hand.

 

[P4-630]

Nvidia 4070/4080 and Raptor Lake

Cinebench scores

 

[mechtech]

How about more affordable 4TB ssds??

 

[ALMorgan]

I'm following with attention development of AMD Zen4 CPU, but I think, I'll switch to it only after 7800X will appear, if possible with 3D cache.
My present 5800X is working in the best way for my needs and my present Gen 3 SSD works flawlessly.
For my needs, the present GPU, a 580 8Gb is just perfect for the use I'm doing of the PC.

 

[Space Lynx]

AMD is getting a lot of love here, this is great.

AMD gimped out on the 5900X3D they showed last year, so I'm waiting to see if they do a 7900X3D. If yes, that's my goto. If not, I'll likely go Intel this next upgrade..

 

[Space Lynx]

I haven't decided on CPU yet, in fact I decided I won't even consider buying any parts for my next build until I have a high end RDNA3 in my hands. Scalpers/bots third party sellers ruin everything, so I am not holding my breath.

If AMD can get me a 7800 XT at $799 or even $899 I am in. As long as it a decent step up over 6800 XT.

Just have to be patient now.

I watched a GN video where Steve asked an AMD guy about anything more for AM4 and he said there definitely could be X3D chips coming so I think saying they aren't going to do so may be a wee bit premature at this point

 

[error1984]

I'm planning to upgrade before christmas and looking forward for 13400f cpu ddr4 system. Everyone waits for rdna3 or zen4....looks like whole internet play ultra 4k You dont need more than 3060ti/6700xt for 1080p gaming...

Still think I'm going next gen.

That's not going to happen. Intel has already stated that 13th gen will use only DDR5. Expect to buy RAM and a new board with that CPU.
