    Question Incredible Apple M4 benchmarks...

    Thanks for the detailed response but the last bit about the new M4 iPad Pro being so thin? To me that is one of the many cons of Apple which unfortunately has been copied by far too many other vendors. Why would I want a laptop or phone etc. which is 1 or 2 mm thinner and loses out on any or...

    Intel processors crashing Unreal engine games (and others)

    I guess the biggest difference is that without these auto-overclocking motherboards Intel would have won even fewer benchmarks. And Intel marketing (and engineering) did not know that is very very unlikely. That motherboard manufacturers play loose with the specs? Well Asus for one have been...

    News AMD 1Q2024 Earnings

    Intel are not quite wrapping Xeons with dollar bills like the did with dumping (er, "contra revenue" in Intel-speak) when they tried to get into the tablet market with Atom (far too late and in a great panic), but while: ~ 75%+ for 66% of the revenue doesn't sound that bad for Intel, I suspect...

    News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    How about creating a "GPU" with the x86 everywhere philosophy! Because the 8086 was such a great chip, and getting lucky with IBM PC gig had no bearing whatsoever! Intel must have been reading "computer history according to Intel" when they started on Larrabee, or were just mad.

    Weren't the rumours during the shortages and PS5 yields were poor - and further rumours that Sony had upped clocks late in the deployment cycle (probably after finding out that XBX was a bigger die) and this was a major reason for the poor yields. I'm sure AMD learned some lessons so maybe...

    Hard to see how efficiency cannot improve with this, but a lot of K - and even more so, KS - buyers mostly claim they don't care about efficiency - not even from being able to cool their CPUs.

    Discussion AMD's Future CPU-APU Gone ARM !!!

    It's not bad unless measured in performance per transistor or area where it fails massively. From the size of its die and the number of transistors it should perform two tiers better, I think.

    At a half glance I though that's a fancy looking PSU! Although in principle the idea of a 400mm fan is good. Ultra low RPM for super quiet - might need gearing down to spin slow enough, or to get the blades to even turn.

    It's only a news item though. And plenty of damage control in the comments especially from that "TPU proofreader" who seems to like making excuses for companies. ComputerBase implied they were going to do an article but haven't see anything since. They also don't like rocking the boat!

    Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    Difference is, even a large CPU is generally 200mm² or less, does not ship with VRAM and a board etc. so there simply is far more margings in CPUs to compete. While it is true that the various "how much does X cost to manufacture" threads generally do not have all the information, irrespective...

    I guess Schadenfreude is something best served cold then! So basically Intel got someone to do a AVX-512 tech demo type thing to skew benchmarks. However in the post Alder-Lake Intel world, Intel no longer support AVX-512 so now AMD wins those benchmarks!

    That's a no AFAIK - not here and not in similar thread over at ocuk. The Intel results show even more that memory tuning is crucial.

    Rather than complaining about "unlimited power" benchmark runs, the real question should be: what would a 14900KS bring over a 14900K or even plain 14900 if power was set to sane levels? Probably nothing, which is why the KS exists in the first place. I really hope Intel stop these furnace...

    i think that is a very consumer centric way to think about it. Where Zen 4C excels is server chips and density.
