Yea it depends but Nvidia generally considers their workstation GPUs when configuring the specs for their consumer GPUs while Radeon doesn't since with a lot of Nvidias consumer GPUs, they can do workstation tasks almost as well as their workstation GPUs but the only real cuck is that Vram. But I do think similar to Kepler > Maxwell > Pascal where Vram has gone up, Blackwell will also see Vram go up. Just the question is whether or not the price will also go up like with Lovelace.

Still my predictions are:

5090: 24GB
5080: 16GB but higher bandwidth
5070/Ti: 16GB less bandwidth
5060 Ti: 12GB
5060: 8GB

I don't think we will see a 12GB 60 class for a while lol

Ngl, if Nvidia keeps this up, I'm switching to team red for my GPU needs when I do my next build early next year

Overwatch 2 is coming to steam. I've bought the game 3 times. When is it most expensive.

Well after it went free to play. LUL.

3 times? For what? 2 smurf accounts? lol

This blizzard gamer knows it.

This move from Blizzard is strange.

They've been doing their own thing for many years without problems, and they decide to do this now? Why? It's too soon to be because of MSoft's deal, and even then they would likely still be able to do their own thing.

Has Overwatch 2 been doing bad lately? I remember the launch was vrey good, but I don't know how's it doing right now, even more so after all the stuff that Blizzard promised before launch and have now cancelled.

Is it because it's free-to-play model doesn't bring as much money as they expected and are trying to bring more people in by launching it on Steam?

As I said, it's strange and raises a lot of questions.

If anything, I wouldn't be surprised if MS wants to "Sunset" battle.net eventually. I think a lot of companies are figuring out that maintaining their own launcher for that extra "30%" might not be as worth it as they initially thought. Hoarding all that data, paying for datacenters around the world, cloud saves, support tickets, managing refunds, charge backs, managing voice chats and group chats etc. Can really start to add up. And it's not like they can advertise on Steam which has a growing number of userbase and now that PC handles are becoming a thing with Steam Deck being at the forefront, it's getting harder to justify not being on Steam.

Plus if the game sells more than $10 million, Valve takes 25% of the revenue and if the game sells more than $50 million, Valve takes 20% which are easy to do with AAA games. And I am sure Valve has a lot of back handed deals with these big publishers as well.

I don't doubt that MSoft will try to do something about Battle.net, but it's too soon to have any power to make that happen.

No, this is a decision that's been taken within the company.

Do what I did and become a Xbot by buying a Xbox Series S.

(I played Gears of War 1 Ultimate on Xbox PC Game pass few years ago and Gears of War 4 as well).

Ended up buying Gears of War 1 Ultimate, 2, 3, Judgment, 4 and 5 (double dipped on Steam too) for my Xbox lol.

Just finished Gears 1 Ultimate again on Xbox few months ago, gonna play 2 later this year.
