[2787.00 --> 2787.26] Ooh. |
[2787.26 --> 2790.60] Or, you know, whether you should bring a camera operator. |
[2790.90 --> 2791.18] Right. |
[2791.28 --> 2795.32] Or, and I'm kind of like, look, it's a graphics card. |
[2795.54 --> 2795.74] Okay. |
[2797.14 --> 2799.54] What day are you giving us the actual information? |
[2800.40 --> 2801.88] Do I need a camera operator there? |
[2801.94 --> 2803.12] Is there going to be an internet connection? |
[2803.20 --> 2803.92] Can I live stream? |
[2803.98 --> 2805.02] Is there an embargo lift? |
[2805.02 --> 2807.34] Does it lift immediately when you guys announce it? |
[2807.36 --> 2808.38] Or does it lift the next day? |
[2808.52 --> 2811.14] I need to know this information so I can do my job. |
[2811.28 --> 2813.86] But, Linus, it might not just be a graphics card. |
[2813.90 --> 2816.02] It might be a fully new, you know, experience. |
[2816.76 --> 2817.10] Yeah, sure. |
[2817.18 --> 2817.28] Whatever. |
[2817.30 --> 2818.80] It could be a revolutionary ray tracing. |
[2818.80 --> 2823.66] Basically, my frustration with them for the most part is that I want to be able to do my job. |
[2824.60 --> 2829.58] With the flip side being, and I've had the same conversations with AMD, Intel, pretty much you name it. |
[2831.28 --> 2835.06] And so my frustrations are probably, like, I think they're fair. |
[2835.06 --> 2844.48] But then I also understand the other side where they can't run around or they can't have people who are not getting briefed on the product correctly, |
[2844.48 --> 2851.04] who might be running pre-release hardware and or pre-release drivers who don't necessarily understand the full story |
[2851.04 --> 2854.26] because it is actually important to get a briefing on something that's not out yet. |
[2854.36 --> 2857.78] There might be stuff that's not working yet, but the fix is coming. |
[2857.92 --> 2860.00] Hey, guys, don't test that till the day before. |
[2860.12 --> 2862.24] We're going to have something for you, but it's not quite there yet. |
[2863.54 --> 2869.86] I think that's also why you don't really want to pay too much attention to all these, like, leaks, benchmarks that come out and stuff |
[2869.86 --> 2873.40] because it's like they're probably running unoptimized software. |
[2873.40 --> 2880.96] And the other issue is that part of this whole control over the launch thing that these companies do is about creating a fair and level playing field. |
[2881.88 --> 2891.08] So if NVIDIA were to allow someone who is not authorized to review the RTX 2080 or the 2080 Ti, |
[2891.98 --> 2896.82] if there were to be some way for that person to get a card and a driver ahead of the launch, |
[2897.44 --> 2902.14] that website or that YouTube channel, that publication could go live with a full review |
[2902.14 --> 2905.86] that may or may not be based on actual finished software, |
[2906.66 --> 2910.68] so might paint the product in an unnecessarily either positive or negative. |
[2911.06 --> 2915.86] I mean, there have been situations where performance was greater |
[2915.86 --> 2920.22] and then something had to be fixed that ended up negatively affecting performance. |
[2920.42 --> 2923.68] So people might not be getting an accurate representation of the performance, |
[2923.68 --> 2931.64] and it puts everyone else who's playing by the rules and releasing their reviews once the NDA lifts at a disadvantage |
[2931.64 --> 2935.64] because everyone will already at least think they know how the product performs. |
[2936.10 --> 2940.36] So you're basically saying put yourself in NVIDIA shoes and maybe consider for a moment that... |
[2940.36 --> 2942.20] Yeah, I wouldn't say that, but... |
[2942.20 --> 2945.50] Mine being in NVIDIA shoes, how many billions of dollars revenue did they do last year? |
[2945.58 --> 2947.80] Okay, well, but consider for a second... |
[2947.80 --> 2949.20] I mean, like, they are a big company. |
[2949.40 --> 2951.54] There's lots of big companies that act in their own self-interest, |
[2951.78 --> 2958.18] but, like, consider for a second that there is a decent, you know, reason for them doing this kind of thing. |
[2958.20 --> 2960.72] I'd like to know, what is it that I ignored during my rant? |
[2963.00 --> 2965.10] Linus ignored the whole chat with his rant. |
[2965.10 --> 2966.30] Oh, yeah, sorry. |
[2967.26 --> 2968.50] That burn will not... |
[2968.50 --> 2973.62] Somebody said, let Riley make a review video. |
[2974.18 --> 2974.82] Just kidding. |
[2975.76 --> 2976.80] You don't want me doing that. |
[2976.80 --> 2979.98] Actually, I think Riley is going to be working on an LTT video in the near future, |
[2980.08 --> 2983.26] but we're not going to tell you guys exactly what's going on. |
[2983.58 --> 2984.78] Oh, no, I should have said that. |
[2984.78 --> 2987.88] So, anyway, final conclusion. |
[2988.28 --> 2989.90] NVIDIA controls AIB launch. |
[2991.34 --> 2992.36] Totally get it. |
[2992.36 --> 2997.72] I wish that review embargoes weren't a thing at all, to be perfectly honest with you. |
[2998.00 --> 3001.76] I wish that they just said, okay, here it is. |
[3001.88 --> 3002.34] Here's the product. |
[3002.44 --> 3003.02] Here's the driver. |
[3003.96 --> 3004.44] Go. |
[3005.46 --> 3006.58] That would be ideal. |
[3007.98 --> 3012.76] But I also understand why companies feel like they have to do this crap, |
[3013.22 --> 3017.22] however frustrating that might be for me as a member of the media. |
[3017.86 --> 3019.36] GeForce Partner Program was... |
[3020.30 --> 3020.70] Terrible. |
[3020.70 --> 3021.60] Basically terrible. |
[3021.60 --> 3023.00] No, this is not that. |
[3023.34 --> 3023.94] This is... |
[3023.94 --> 3025.42] It's far less terrible. |
[3025.66 --> 3026.94] It's very annoying. |
[3027.76 --> 3030.18] But potentially necessary. |
[3031.02 --> 3033.00] Well, no, I don't think any of it's necessary. |
[3033.00 --> 3033.10] It's not necessary. |
[3033.10 --> 3036.48] I think it is necessary for NVIDIA to protect its own interests. |
[3036.84 --> 3037.08] Right. |
[3037.58 --> 3041.00] Okay, well, from that perspective... |
[3041.00 --> 3041.74] So, necessary. |
[3041.74 --> 3046.34] Not necessary for things like this to exist in the universe all the time. |
[3046.34 --> 3046.74] It is... |
[3046.74 --> 3053.90] This is not especially helpful for consumers getting an accurate understanding of the performance of the product. |
[3054.22 --> 3054.92] Well... |
[3054.92 --> 3056.86] But that's because the drivers aren't there yet. |
[3057.74 --> 3058.66] Unless they are. |
[3058.74 --> 3059.56] See, in this case... |
[3059.56 --> 3059.96] Unless they are. |
[3059.96 --> 3061.68] I don't have an RTX card. |
[3061.90 --> 3062.10] Right. |
[3062.18 --> 3063.70] I don't have RTX drivers. |
[3064.42 --> 3065.30] No, I don't. |
[3065.50 --> 3069.22] I don't know how done or not done any of this is. |
[3069.36 --> 3072.94] I don't know who we're getting RTX cards from. |
[3073.02 --> 3074.08] I don't know when they're coming. |
[3075.62 --> 3076.46] No, for real. |
[3076.58 --> 3077.22] I'm serious. |
[3078.22 --> 3079.32] So, I'm just... |
