Looks like you're really enjoying the game, Yuri.

And looks like Nvidia's rumored special power connector is actually real. I wonder how much those ar going to cost. It also makes me wonder how bad the power consumption of the new cards will be. With the special cooler and power cable, it looks like Nvidia's new cards could be real powe hogs and run hot.

Wouldn't it be ridiculous if, after so many years, AMD ended with a more efficient architecture even if it doesn't reach the peformance as Nvidia's new cards? Will power consumption and efficiency remain important if Nvidia is on the losing side or will the statement change again to the only thing that matters is the performance?

Yea it is a pretty nice game mainly due to how good the visuals are. There isn't really much in terms of gameplay other than taking off, flying to somewhere and then landing. The screenshot is from reddit though and not from me personally but it's not hard to get shots like that as you have a lot of control over the game. The only problem is landing in a populated city where it tanks your framerate, specially in stormy weather with a boeing.

AMD certainly has the ability to have an edge on efficiency because TSMC's 7nm is better than Samsung's 8nm. But I think that AMD will be pushing it's RDNA 2 clocks very high to keep up with Nvidia who will also push their clocks very high. Personally I think both are gonna have crazy power consumption numbers.
