After the launch of the amazing bang for the buck RX 480, AMD has started to tease the upcoming “high-end” AMD RX 490 for 4K gaming. However, the launch of RX 480 targets the budget area of the market. Nvidia’s top dogs, the GTX 1070 and 1080, are still going strong with no competition from AMD’s side.
LLC: "Nintendo Switch 2 is a massive upgrade in every way that matters on a day to day basis, and with some firmware updates it could be even better."
It is massive compared to the switch 1. 6-10X the power, but compared to current standards it’s the bare minimum.
It's just a minor upgrade nothing special. Could have included the Oled screen but greedy Nintendo have something planned for it already.
You are self aware of how dumb and "sheepy" that tagline of "greedy" sounds like at this point in time, right?
Every little entitled twat on the internet has used it ad nauseum, as if all of a sudden you somehow struck gold or something. it ALMOST sounds as infantile as the other meme vomit brain rot: "Defending the billion dollar company, blah, blah" FFS. tell me its "irony" at least what you are trying to express, so at least i can give you some credit for being "clever" or bold. I refuse to believe you ACTUALLY believe what you are saying, unironically,
Great review! We have almost the same impression of the Switch 2. I don't care if the screen isn't OLED, because when I put it next to my friend's Steam OLED screen, they barely deviated in quality.

As someone who has been gaming nearly as long as gaming has been around (since the early 70's), you'd think I'd be against this. Having grown up with all the major platforms and the whole notion of physical ownership... but I'm not. i embrace this as it is a revolutionary convenience. And one i know for a fact many (especially here) have not even given the fair chance to use. I get it... i was there too. But now i have a new outlook on it. It really is a hell of an option if you just want to play with no commitments. By no means am i saying this should replace traditional gaming, its an option. And one that people should look at optimistically as a way to compliment traditional gaming. There is room for both to thrive.
With Sifu already on the handheld, Pocket Tactics asks Rematch creative director Pierre Tarno about bringing the new soccer game to Nintendo Switch 2.
Ah the 1080 competitor! Nice!
Waiting to see if they can competitively price one before I pull the trigger on a slimmer replacement for my 980 ti (downsizing to mini-ITX).
I really think the Scorpio's Polaris GPU will borrow more from the RX 490 than the RX 480. Bear in mind the chip IS NOT a desktop-grade video card, and therefore can't be a 1:1 equivalent. That being said, I still feel the Scorpio's graphics hardware will be based more on the Radeon RX 490 than the 480, especially given the RX 490 is focused more on 4K gaming.
This is the card I'm really waiting for.
