Exactly, it's from the PS5 die.

Folk need to remember he said he photoshoped around the die. So it distorts the die image.
Besides, if he had any knowledge of the card why would he claim 2080ti +15%?
Come on folk must critically think of this as a whole.

But what's an extra 100-200 mhz going to get you in terms of framerate? You'll probably get that with very a mild overclock. I think for most people that want to play games rather than benchmark, the difference in performance will be much less significant than the difference in price.
Smells like pish, especially when they strongly hinted via twitter it would have good availability.
This is translated Chinese text. Related to BGA substrate issue affecting 68** series.
Tony is Asus General Manager. "68 series has less cargo than 3080.."
This posted by a guy who gave us info in the discord on rage mode etc way before event launch. He confirmed it affects all AIBs and ref.
Also raw Chinese version if someone wants to do manual translation

Well it must be true if Chinese Tony says so.
"Chinese Tony" as you call it is Asus General Manager... Even have his LinkedIn.
Again MLID discord is very pro AMD, would be the last place you'd see people who have reputation for reliablely leaking info earlier to do so one as negative as this for AMD.

I don't know if this is genuine or not but can I ask why, if you have been in this Discord for some time and seen info for example on Rage mode, that you didn't come and post it here?
If Tony genuinely knows how many units he has then why isn't he giving more numbers and more factual information?
Im not saying its not genuine but one line in a Discord needs more substantiating surely?
Because it wasn't big news, this is. I also don't like repeating stuff from there to much in respect of the users but I asked Gnasherrr if I can post this elsewhere and he was OK with it.
I think you are misunderstanding a few things about Ray Tracing. RDNA 2 does have Hardware accelerated Ray Tracing.
And there isn't AMD's Ray tracing or Nvidia's Ray Tracing in the way that you mean. There is just Ray Tracing. The game engine will just use whichever hardware is available. And if there isn't a card capable of HW Ray Tracing then the game engine will use the software fallback layer provided by Vulkan now and Dx12 Ultimate when it's released later this year.

This is FUD. Come on people.
He has no information on what the numbers are between AMD/Nvidia nor was he motived enough to make something up.
This is getting comical. Lets not forget that coretek was right about RTX well before it was released. Yet got everything else wrong regarding this release.
If it's remotely true there is a BGA Subsrtate shortage where is the actuall reporting of this?
And to further add, it's not an AMD/Nvidia issue. It would be an issue for the entire tech. market. Therefore, reporting it as "AMD is just as bad as nvidia so nvidia is fine" implication would still be a false one.

Its also probably one flavour of Asus stock being delayed. Will wait to hear from @Gibbo before I trust discord chats and reddit nonsense.
That isn't the info he's been given. He said the BGA substrate issue affects all AIBs and Ref.
