OK AMD, you have the cards, you know where nvidia falls in the market with the other cards (or have very accurate expectations), now price this decently from day 1, no exceptions

With enough manufactured that you can actually get one

This is also a good point. Since nvidia made an absolute colossal paper launch, amd has to gain to go the other direction

AMD being the way that they are - they have a good opportunity to get ahead and they'll just fumble hard. The bare minimum here would be to just be priced better than nvidia, but no doubt they charge around the same and their drivers will be trash offering no compelling reason for people to switch or upgrade.

You are most probably right. We have seen several times already making a lead was not hard, they just decided not to. I mean at this point "amd never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity" is an absolute meme, and quite frankly, correct

it seem they either cant make them cheap enough or dont care to take market share?

Frankly? I can't tell. It looks like they are constantly trying to get away with the most egregious option every time and expect to be "the lesser of 2 evils"
