Radeon reminding us they will be just as greedy as Nvidia if given the chance

Indeed. They're showing that with their CPUs.

Intel Arc B770 reportedly still set for release, expected in the fourth quarter of the year

Intel had a head start over the other two and they'll still be late to the party.

The B770 better be at least a 16GB card at $299 that delivers close to 5060Ti performance, otherwise it will be DOA if it really launches so late.

Not to disagree with you, but AMD's success in the console business has more to do with

1) Being the only company that could provide both the CPU and GPU (Intel/IBM could do CPU but not GPU and Nvidia could provide GPU but not CPU), And when APUs came and gave them the option to have both on the same silicon, it only made the deal even better

2) Being easy to work with because they didn't act like d*cks (there's a reason neither MSoft after the first Xbox nor Sony after the PS3 wanted to work with Nvidia again)

3) They needed the money from consoles to keep the company afload, which was good both both sides

Not sure where the disagreement is here. The last line of my post is "I think that has alot to do with their success in the console business."

What I meant to say is that the ending of your post:

AMD seems to care more about the gaming market. I think that has alot to do with their success in the console business.

Made it seem like both things are related. They're not. AMD was lucky that everything around them made choosing AMD the best, if not the only, option both Sony and Microsoft had.
