Jay have since release a video apologizing for the video and it has been taken down. It was a very bad video that should never off been release but I very much doubt he received a penny from Nvidia for it. His apology video |
Saw that video. Pulling the video and putting up an apology seems more like a reactionary than anything. Though I do wish him well. It was more of a jest but you have to admit he does act a little suspicious when it comes to Nvidia lol. Like half their tests and results were games with RT or benchmarks of RT performance and then they had the 2060 in there, just like Nvidia's slides (funny that) putting big emphasis on how big of a jump it is verses that and calling it it the best jump since the Pascal years and telling people to go out and buy it. $400, yo.. DLSS3, great power consumption.. its the GTX 1060 of this generation. Like what?
I'd like to say its techtuber thing when they get sent so much free stuff to review, it clouds their judgement. But I don't know how they can factor in such a small gen on gen upgrade and even regression from the 3060Ti but having to rely on things like frame gen (which doesn't increase performance but makes games feel like they run smoother) saying this as I do like the tech. That and their testings with RT.
The card is an a piece of shit for the money and should've been called the 4050Ti and priced less. You'd have to be a little out of touch to have people testing this gear impartially to come to the conclusion that this is a decent generational leap and great card for $400 and something worthy of full recommendation. I guess that's the reason why Jay took it down. Because it makes them look ridiculous.
