About this episode

The episode discusses the backlash from Reddit users regarding criticisms of 4GB GPUs and the upcoming Radeon RX 9050.

Episode 110: Fanboys on Reddit got very upset that we trashed the upcoming Radeon RX 9050 and 4GB GPUs in general, claiming that these models are not sold to consumers, and also not actually gaming GPUs. So we naturally decided to take on and dismantle these idiotic comments in this week's podcast.
