Broken Silicon's next guest will see the return of Josh from PC Perspective.  Overall we plan to take a look back at a year of Alchemist and Nvidia Lovelace, discuss the pricing & sales trajectory of the RX 7800 / 7700 XT, talk about RDNA 4 hopes a bit, and also debate if Intel 14th Gen will be a solid enough generation to do well against discounted Zen 4 this holiday season!

But please feel free to ask us literally anything about the market and upcoming products - this episode will be HEAVILY steered by your submissions, and Josh has decades of experience to bring to the table.  Just be respectful, concise, and use good grammar to be considered!  You have ~40 hours to submit below!

Hello Tom and Josh. Over the course of this year, there has been much wailing and gnashing of teeth over the "poor optimization" of recent games, especially when it comes to VRAM usage. This seems strange to me because my impression of the PC gaming community is that people would just shrug their shoulders and blame the complainer's hardware for any performance shortfalls. Has this kind of thing happened before? I am fairly new to the PC gaming space so I am curious to know whether or not this is a regular occurrence.

Hey guys. Do you think Amd made a mistake making Navi 32 an mcm design? Even though some of it is 6nm, I can't help but think the packaging cost made up the difference in silicon cost. Wouldn't a monolithic Navi 32 have been a little cheaper and most energy efficient? A 7800xt for $450 would have been just that much better in the current market.
