It's a mindshare type of thing.
Yes, the messaging is fine and all, but what exactly are they trying to convey with that picture? That the site is nowhere near ready
just like the card? Or that it will be just like an old factory, loud and hot? Or is that an abandoned recycling plant, meaning that the card is not only not ready, but when it is, it will just be an upscaled Polaris 10 with HBM2 or GDDR5X?
Or does it mean that they will continue to treat some of the tech press like trash?
Someone please help me, because I really want to find something positive to derive from that picture.
