Tbh 7600 from Red team felt like they shot themselves in the foot at launch. Only $30 less than the msrp of the 4060 when the 4060 has DLSS and all the Nvidia goodies? Lol. Sure they perform similarly but when you look at how good DLSS is, especially at low resolution vs FSR (let alone other features), the $30 difference is an easy win for Nvidia until Radeon eventually discounts the 7600.

6600 vs 3060 also would have been a win for Nvidia since 6600 and 3060 12GB both launched for the msrp of $329... But the scalpers made 3060 price crazy and Nvidia does their usual Nvidia things and manage to sell them just in time for their next gen so their GPUs don't get discounted. While Radeon GPUs don't sell enough or they miss estimate and thus have to provide big discounts to their GPUs well after their generation ends.

Really the biggest problem with Radeon is that during launch, they shoot themselves in the foot by pricing their gpus in a stupid way. (Some exceptions of course) Then later when their gpus don't sell, they discount them to the appropriate amounts but by then, the ship has sailed. If they released the gpus with correct prices to begin with, the launch reviews which are the ones that generally get most watched won't shit on them for pricing so close to Nvidia while having a laughing stock of a feature set (least they are catching up).

With that being said, Battlemage has really peaked my interest. The prices are truly nuts if the claims are true. Likely Nvidia will continue their high end dominance while Radeon will tackle mid range and Intel just might win entry level. But we will see since it will be a strong battle between Intel and Radeon.
