NVIDIA sees no major threat from AMD Radeon RX Vega

During yesterday's earnings call, Barclays Capital analyst Blayne Curtis queried NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang about how he sees the competitive landscape in the gaming GPU market evolve into the latter half of the year.

Huang's reply was very brief, he confidently stated that he doesn't expect the competitive position to change:

Blayne Curtis - Barclays Capital, Inc.
Thanks. And then just moving to the gaming GPU side, I was just wondering if you can just talk about the competitive landscape looking back at the last refresh. And then looking forward into the back half of this year, I think your competitors have a new platform. I'm just curious as to your thoughts as to how the share worked out on the previous refresh and then the competitiveness into the second half of this year.

Jen-Hsun Huang - NVIDIA Corp.
My assessment is that the competitive position is not going to change.
