If NVidia gives the developers a lot of green pieces of paper with dead presidents on them, they'll bend backwards and use the middleware. And it's a bit more than half of the people, Steam survey says that NVidia is around 60% while ATI around 40%.
Wow. You lack even the basic knowledge of threads, processes and processors.
And I am crazy enough to argue about server loads with you.
Wow.
I am speechless.
I am repeating because you don't want to or are incapable to understand certain basic server loads. If you have an application that waits a lot (Minecraft server) for various IO operations, IPC isn't a prime quality you want in a CPU. My facts are decades of computer engineering.
Fact...
Got it. You have no clue.
I see you are a genius CPU designer, what's your background? It's easy to be armchair CPU designer. Isn't? The fact is that server sides, Interlagos is competitive with Xeons and costing far less is pretty damn nice. Is it the holy grail of CPUs? Hell no, it has many...
That's really golden. You complain about ignorance.
How many lines of server application code you have written?
How many servers do you regularly maintain?
How many server applications have you designed?
What is your server background?
Please enlighten us of your server experience since you...
Yup, people who work 14 hours a day, often 6 days a week are 'lazy'. People whining about lack of true multithreaded games needs to realize a few things:
(1) It's extremely hard to write good MT code.
(2) Most games are console ports, no need for MT given current processor power.
(3) When your...
People run Minecraft servers on laptops and old machines, so I doubt any serious IPC is required to run it. IMHO, you need two things: as many physical cores as possible and a lot, and I mean a lot of RAM.
Now, remove your client (Desktop) glasses and put on your server glasses. Suddenly, Bulldozer isn't an illogical move at all. They sure missed the implementation on many fronts, but the idea is damn good. I think that in the long run it will pay off once the 32nm process matures and more PD...
Crucial m4 issue: 5200 hours of usage later, BSOD every hour. On the other hand, I do kind of agree with if a firmware works, leave it. I still have firmware 1.29 on my Vertex 2, not gonna update it because it's been working for a year.
If you don't 'see', how can you notice it? What senses are being used? Smell? Touch? Taste? Hearing? I am curios, honestly, how people can tell the difference between 60 and 120 fps while the eye and brain can't process anything more than north 30 fps (and I am being generous).
Your brain can't tell the difference. The brain 'memorizes' an image about 1/15th of a second, then it moves to next. So there is no way a human can 'see' 60 fps. Nothing to do with being blind, is just that our own internal computer has limits.
Encrypt your files in truecrypt container then use two or more cloud services (Google Docs, SkyDrive, Ubuntu One or DropBox or whatever). Keep a copy or two on USB keys.
Stopped putting optical drives in my machines about 3 years ago. Have an external USB DVD reader/writer in case I need it (happens once a year maybe). Any recent OS can be installed from USB flash drives anyways.
