Maybe they mean ATI and are misremembering Radeon? Granted it’s been well over a decade, but I could see someone saying it anyways. For a long time, ATI cards were better than what was coming out of the merger (not literally because generational gains, but by relative comparison).

  I think you can still find it mentioned on the product detail stickers or the PCB silkscreen or such. They still have the name in a few places, probably to maintain the trademark.

Probably more like they don’t realize Ryzen is AMD’s new line

Ryzen hasn’t been “new” in a long time

  I’m mostly working off that there is clearly some kind of disconnect here. Of course anyone remotely close to in the know, knows Ryzen is an AMD line of multiple generations by now.

Yeah, though I would say there is no need for the extra step of ATI.

Specifically due to value, though Ryzen was a better value when it started (pricing more Intel-like as soon as Ryzen became successful). Well… a Ryzen APU might still be better value at ultra-low-end compared to a new GPU, though probably better off with a used Polaris GPU.

To me it just seems like GPUs are still stagnated due to cryptomining, though gaming and raytracing hype probably doesn’t help either.

  It was crypto mining. Now it’s “AI”.
