It seems as if AMD’s final GCN-based GPUs will cease production. The GPUs in question, Vega 10 and Vega 20, have reached ‘End of Life’ status, with the decision being made as recently as June. To say the least, if you have an interest in either of the three GPUs listed, the time to buy may be now. Take this information with a grain of salt, though.

AMD’s latest high-performance GPU offering, the Radeon VII, may just be on its last legs in its fight against NVIDIA. With the RTX 2080 SUPER priced at the same level as the Radeon VII, the Radeon VII may become tough to recommend unless the user’s workloads are compute intensive, or if the user frequently requires firepower for workstation and productivity tasks. The RTX 2080 and the Radeon VII tend to trade blows with each other, but the RTX 2080 SUPER should bring enough of an improvement to gain the $700 performance crown.
