Thanks for replying. I appreciate it.
I guess what I was looking at more was could Apple adopt Vega for next time or would they likely stick with Polaris? I know again this is Apple related and iMac related but also AMD related. The top level non-pro iMac is what I have my eye on. It has the...
I am asking in regards to the iMac which currently uses Polaris and the iMac Pro will be using Vega in December when it's released. I know this is Apple related but it is also AMD related with regards to GDDR5 and HBM2.
That one tower you linked to for $1,500 I'd rate probably 8.9/10. The only things I do not like are the mostly red of the tower case and I would need to be sure that the OS is on the SSD not the HDD. To be frank, I don't want an HDD of any kind in the tower by default and wish I could just...
I'll admit I'm kind of lazy and don't want to take the time to build my own PC and also in the back of my mind I am kind of afraid I'd screw something up.
On my Mac mini, I voided my warranty and installed my own SSD a few months after I got it. I replaced a 500 GB Hitachi HDD with a Samsung...
This is slightly off-topic but I am curious. I have been interested in the skull canyon NUC for a while now but a few of my tech friends tell me it is too much money and I can get better for much less money. I love the form factor of the NUC because I have a 2011 Mac mini but Apple does not care...
I mean I like the quad-core NUC so it's not like I'm going to pass up the Skylake NUC and wait until next year for the Kaby Lake NUC even with double the amount of eDRAM if one is possibly coming out.
I'm glad you corrected me and not that I doubted Shintai but I just wanted to be sure.
Skylake-C makes sense for the 4K iMac. Right now, it has Iris Pro 6200 with 128 MB eDRAM (48 execution units), Iris Pro 580 offers a marginal improvement of 72 execution units but with the same amount of eDRAM. Skylake-C will have 256 MB of eDRAM and who knows how many EUs.
Is Skylake-C cancelled? If I Google it, it says Intel pulled the plug but then I saw this below:

In my opinion, they used to be absurd but aren't as bad anymore.
In 2011, when I bought my first Mac, the cost to go from a base $599 mini with 2 GB of RAM to the mid-range model (+$200 to $799) and put an Apple 256 GB "branded" SSD inside (+$600) was $1,399. In addition the controller inside...
What's the deal with the 2x128 in this bit of news?
