AMD’s treatment of RDNA 1 and 2 owners makes me regret my RDNA 4 purchase
I really like my RDNA 4 GPU. My Radeon RX 9070 XT is a great GPU: it runs very cool, undervolts supremely well, and performs really well at 1440p. Biding my time and waiting for the release of RDNA 4 seemed like a good choice when I got my GPU months ago, but AMD's recent statement regarding driver support for GPUs utilizing the RDNA 1 and 2 architectures left me really disappointed as a consumer. AMD has a history of targeting the buyer who wants value and longevity of performance for their hard-earned money, and considering that RDNA 2 GPUs were still being sold as recently as this year, I'm left questioning whether my investment in a Radeon card was a misplacement of trust in AMD.
