AMD Implies Nvidia's Supply Issues Won't Plague Radeon RX 6000 Launch - PCMag

AMD's chief architect of gaming solutions took a buyer up on his $10 bet that the company would have issues with its upcoming Radeon launch.

AMD is launching its Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards in October as an alternative to the GeForce RTX 3080 flagship and the premium RTX 3090, both of which seemed to go out of stock nearly instantly when preorders went live over the past few weeks.

Notably, Twitter user @AndreElijah, who lamented that he wouldn't be able to do his work "for the next little bit", made a $10 bet that AMD would also drop the ball with its Radeon launch.

The company has yet to make any official comment on the matter, whether in terms of if AMD will be able to meet demand or if there will be fewer issues with retailers.

AMD's high-end 6000 GPU series is meant to take on Nvidia's RTX 3080 and 3090.

After witnessing a troublesome buying experience for fans with the PlayStation 5, Microsoft took the opportunity to dunk on its competitor with a tweet mocking Sony by noting the company would let fans know "the exact time" they'd be able to preorder a system.
