i was feeling really tired earlier today
then i had this razor respawn gum and
wow i feel so
just so up and at it now so basically
what we're doing here today
is amd has released a 3d model
of their new rdna big navi gpu
into fortnite so in order to have the
best possible look at it
we're going to be using an rtx 2080 so
let's do it
the best part about this is that you get
to just find out how bad i am at
fortnight
i played it like a tiny bit when it was
new a couple uh
years ago and i was really bad and i
didn't have fun
do you guys know anything about fortnite
no
just it's getting head shakes okay
okay you guys can't see what i'm doing
here can you i have literally no clue
what's going on i'm like in a store
right now
how i just want to go back custom
options
oh figured out did it okay yep
who's still got it this guy right here
um
i've got a this tweet right here from
radeon
eight six five one nine eight four one
sixteen thirty nine boom wait i answered
that but now what do i do
you can't use custom match making for
this oh geez
i found the only person that's in the
office right now that knows how to use
fortnite
so you want to make a creative like a
new map or do you want to like just open
up
i want to just open up one um
pretty sure you're supposed to click
this and then you can do it while you're
in
edit edit button okay
edit button use
building edit g unable to edit
building what if you try plugging in a
controller and seeing what happens
yes there you go
code there you go thank you so much
you're welcome man
i think i figured it all out so
2mad did some voodoo not totally sure
what
but then it involved plugging in a
controller which i guess is an
odd glitch that sometimes you aren't
able to interact with these things
with a mouse and keyboard makes sense i
would have figured that one out on my
own for sure
and now we are in right here it's a big
amd looking lobby
and amd radeon 6000 series
enter matchmaking manscape's shears 2.0
nail kit
it's a luxury 4-piece nail kit featuring
tempered stainless steel tools
it contains slash tipped tweezers round
point scissors
fingernail clippers and a medium grit
nail file get 20
off and free shipping of the performance
package when you go to manscape.com
forward slash circuit
maybe i should get one i've been just
using the you know belt sanders
there we go we are on top of the new
radeon rx 6000
6900 i'm guessing 6800 one of the two
so apparently this gpu according to just
rumors this is kind of pure speculation
is going to have 80 compute units which
translates to
5 120 shaders
for some context the rtx 3070 is going
to have 5
88 so this
likely will be slightly less powerful
than that
which isn't necessarily a bad thing so
and if the biggest reason that i think
this gpu might be fantastic is that
nvidia's current cards are very
aggressively priced and
very fast according to what they've said
we haven't actually seen the numbers yet
but
or i haven't seen the numbers people in
office have but i personally haven't
but given that nvidia's you know
delivering that much value
one can only speculate that amd is also
you know
kicking some butt because otherwise like
why would they do that
now it also might just be that instead
of these gpus being what nvidia is
worried about it could just be people
going for the consoles now what we can
actually see here
is not a whole lot i'm on a massive pci
express
riser i'm going to say it's safe to
assume this is not to scale
if i just jump off the side here while i
go back to
the start oh my god i just swim
well there's the underside of the
graphics card so what we can see is it
looks like a pretty
you know standard placement it looks
like the pcv is going to run
for the whole length of the card and
pretty standard like vasa mounting for
the cooler
so it should be pretty easy for people
like ek
alphacool whoever to you know
fix up water blocks for this wow i'm
kind of flying with control now oh we
can look at the i o
so do we have here we have an hdmi
presumably 2.1 is that the new hotness
or
2.2 2.1 so that's presumably 2.1
we also have two display ports and one
of the vr ports
that looks about it but at the same time
that's kind of what you'd expect i'm
surprised it's not perforated
up here to allow kind of like air to
come out of it
although it is a pretty beefy cooler and
how beefy is the power supply going to
have to be
right here we have two eight pins so
it's gonna be
pretty power hungry but not
insanely so like we're not talking about
like 30 90 levels of
bonker towns i'm pretty standard
like you know triple fan card layout i
wouldn't expect
anything too too crazy from like this
unfortunately you can't see how many
heat pipes there are that's kind of like
the amount of fans on a lot of things
like this matters a lot less than just
the thickness and the number of heat
pipes i guess kind of how you really
know what's up
i wonder what these are uh i have no
clue what these little pins are
for maybe just debugging
i i could be totally wrong it says
radion
i hope that it glows in the final one
it's not glowing right now
fans look very standard we've got one
two three four five six seven eight
nine fins my plan was to look at how
many fins this gpu has but then i
remember it's water cooled
so rip yeah that's that's about it
that's kind of all you can see so i
guess what other rumors do we have about
this thing
one thing that is interesting is that
this is quite a beefy cooler and there's
quite a bit of power
and it's rumored that our dna 2 big navi
is going
to have 50 more performance per watt so
hopefully amd is doing the same sort of
thing as
nvidia where they're not being like oh
we got you know
this extra power budget because we made
our process more efficient
whereas instead it's going to be much
more like we got this more power budget
so we can feed some more power right and
then everybody's like yes
and then you get more frames and it's
just as hot and your room becomes a
sauna after
20 minutes of gaming so that we can't
see any of the pcb
or heat pipes at all it's just a black
square i guess the vr is kind of feeding
into the hype
like if you're thinking about nvidia rtx
3000 right now maybe just hold off
see how well amd does that's definitely
what they want me to say right now
for me personally this right here
looks like it's going to be a pretty
banging card
but if the drivers don't work who cares
that's kind of like my biggest if in all
of this
like we kind of saw what they did last
time
and it was like what three months of
black screening
the good news is though that this same
architecture is going to be going to the
xbox series one
and the ps5 they're going to be working
with like you know all of the big game
developers to make their games run
really well on this hardware in the
consoles
so one would think that you know you
just
take more of that hardware and put it in
a pc and
hopefully it will work pretty good maybe
we'll see
either way we don't have like a time
frame of when this will be coming out
wait they announced when they're
announcing it when's the announcement
date of the announcement
october 8th 2020 is when amd will be
announcing
the announcement time i think
it's beautiful oh my god
it's magnificent what happened
some guy just joined the server and is
just i think he needs a change of pants
after looking this
mark's excited he's a mac user oh
oh yeah this will be great for anyone
that's on apple
you might be able to have like a gpu now
or like just
a gpu that like is good i don't know how
high my hopes are
but they're a lot higher than they were
before nvidia's announcement so that's a
plus
um anyway i hope that you guys have a
great day
i don't know get on the big navi hype
train and
just i don't know go on amd subreddit
and be like wow
be like the guy on the surfboard here
being like it's beautiful
anyway have it just have a great day
i'll talk to you later
