AMD responds to Ryzen's bad 1080p gaming performance by blaming game devs: https://www.pcper.com/news/Processors/AM...ests-Ryzen

AMD Cult Leader Messiah Stebe Jobes announces today that all game developers are "holding it wrong," plans no fixes due to the problem totally not being fault of AMD's perfect vision of the future.

lol.






And the assertion that games are "optimized" for intel anything is completely laughable.

The only thing games are optimized for if they are optimized at all is for the AMD tablet cores in the consoles.

Only one to blame is themselves on every count, and it's hilarious to see them spinning at 15k rpm simultaneously everywhere on the internet and banning anyone who says the truth.

I'd say more "sad" than hilarious.

AMD should hire me to be influential in their PR department.

I'd clean up that laughable Team Red and get better members, or just do it myself.

I'd focus resources on what Ryzen does well and deflect every criticism of things like 1080p gaming with comments like, "I'm glad you asked. No part is "all things to all people". We have exceptionally strong cost/benefit ratio in our Ryzen parts for the vast majority of customers who are not gamers at all, or are casual gamers. Furthermore, our exceptional multithreaded performance makes Ryzen chips the value proposition for the hardcore gamer who also works on his or her pc, and games at resolutions higher than 1080p. I'd note if a person is a serious gamer using a 1080p monitor or involved in competitive gaming as their livelihood, they would be better served by our competitor's similarly fine products."

THAT is how AMD should be responding to this gaming "issue".

You have to play your game, not the other team's game or you are going to lose. It's all a matter of telling the truth, but emphasizing the positives while acknowledging the negatives.

AMD is at a critical "do or die" junction in their history. Personally, I'd love to help them not just survive, but thrive.

Alas, my guess is they still have Rollo dart boards and Voodoo dolls in their offices so things will likely stay the same.
