For many though, it's all about the pricing - Nvidia's biggest weakness. On the face of it, AMD has delivered a clear pricing win in that neither of its top-tier products breach the $1000 barrier, while both of Nvidia's rivals do - and by quite some margin. The question is how these cards compare competitively and here we still have no concrete details.
The lack of competitive benchmarking does mean that PC outlets have produced 'projected' numbers which look great for AMD in non-RT workloads - but publishing estimated numbers only adds noise right now, in my opinion, as what AMD actually benched and at what settings is not clear in most instances. We need independent testing that is not based on vendor metrics.
Other aspects of the presentation that caught our eye included support for DisplayPort 2.1, up against Nvidia's DisplayPort 1.4a. AMD spent a lot of time talking about about high resolution, high refresh rate displays that do not exist yet, that no GPU currently on the market can really service - so I see this point of differentiation as a 'nice to have' for AMD and a disappointing omission from Nvidia, but not a game-changer.
