  1. Poll: Do you care about ray tracing / upscaling?

    It would be interesting to see a comparison on the same Ada hardware between DLSS upscaling + FSR3 and DLSS upscaling + DLSS frame gen. I've heard it claimed that the FSR upscaling seems to be about on par between Nvidia and AMD. If so, the quality should be comparable.
  2. Question Speculation: RDNA3 + CDNA2 Architectures Thread

    It is probably too late to buy into both Nvidia and AMD at this point. The mindless investors who think that AI hardware will boom forever have overvalued these companies too much.
  3. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    There is a much bigger risk that a product targeting the high-end will run into a big bottleneck and will have to be sold for very little, than a lower-end product. There is inherently less risk in making a small die that costs less. The A770 was arguably already too ambitious, requiring 406...

    Are the reviews useless, or are the products mostly pretty poor compared to previous generations?
  5. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    This is just nonsense, since Tim goes against the Nvidia narrative plenty. Like criticizing DLSS 3 quality, criticizing how it is marketed, criticizing RT, etc. The channel got blacklisted by Nvidia for not towing the Nvidia line! If this is really what you perceive as Nvidia shills, then I...
  6. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    Many people don't want to do an in-depth investigation into what product is better and don't know whose advice to trust anyway. They just want to slap their dollars on the counter and get a product that works. So they get the product from the most reputable brand.
  7. Discussion Leading Edge Foundry Node advances (TSMC, Samsung Foundry, Intel)

    It's going to be an interesting few years ahead. AI bubble go boom boom? All those subsidized chip factories having to fight for customers? TSMC N2 being as good as Nenni claims? Intel getting competitive again? Someone developing a cheap and fast interconnect technology? So many possibilities.
  8. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    Yes, sure, mostly for younger women. But on the whole, I think that there are a decent number of women who would see a dedicated gaming desktop or console as a childish waste of money, while they can justify a light gaming laptop to themselves, much more than men who reason the same way. Men who...
  9. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    No, I was referring to how many women seem to see male gaming to explain their buying decisions. My point is that it's exactly their 'I don't want to be like that' opinions, which is also visible in those commercials where men are shown as buffoons and women as the responsible ones, that make...
  10. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    Lots of laptops are bought by light gamers, who play a bit of Minecraft or The Sims in the evening. Lots of women too, who don't see themselves as hardcore gamers and don't want to be the kind of person who spends lots on gaming stuff, as they see that as childish/male (same thing, really). So...
  11. Question Speculation: RDNA3 + CDNA2 Architectures Thread

    Must be because they ordered way too little of RDNA2 and couldn't get them out during the mining boom, because it it makes little sense otherwise. In any case, not really a proper comparison with the mining boom and other issues during most of RDNA2's life.
  12. Question Speculation: RDNA3 + CDNA2 Architectures Thread

    In my opinion, people are going overboard with their emotions. RDNA 2 was very solid and RDNA 3 had some significant issues that made it underperform a lot, but if they get that missed performance back with RDNA 4, plus a regular improvement, then it can again be a perfectly fine release. With...
  13. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    Key is to have strong competition, so the companies keep each other in check. But it's way to soon to speculate about Intel beating Nvidia. Let them prove they can make a profit on their GPUs first.
  14. Question are video card prices headed down yet?

    The cost of production should be around 80 dollars, so with shipping & tariffs that is probably already very close to the sale price. So then the loss would pretty much be the margins that they would have to offer to the wholesaler and retailer. Hard to know how high those are, but them seem...
  15. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    An issue is that you really need to knock it out of the park. If you produce a video card that you need to discount to move, you only sacrifice margins on the GPU parts. If you produce a laptop with a video card that people dislike, you need to discount the entire laptop, so you also sacrifice...
  16. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    AI chips are not limited by TSMC's chip producing capacity, but by CoWoS capacity and HBM supply. This is why Nvidia is letting Intel do the packaging for some of the AI chips.

    Just look at the MSI Claw why mobile Arc makes no sense right now. Perf/watt is not there.
  18. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    If so, they utterly failed with the 7900 XT, because it was so close to the XTX that people left it on the shelves until the price was cut.
  19. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    Exactly. $270 is the maximum price.
  20. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    This is false. Some did, including on this forum. In fact, you were one of them. Did you forget already? ;) But I personally know better charities than 50 billion dollar companies and I try to not buy stuff that I won't use anyway. It's not our fault that Intel made such a mess of it.
  21. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    One the one hand, we got saved from one-vendor hell by AMD licensing x86. On the other hand, the industry might have switched to a more open or fully open ISA if that hadn't happened. Imagine an alternate history where x86 was dead and Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, Samsung and Nvidia were all fighting...
  22. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    The context of that discussion was 3 GB GDDR7 chips, so no, the bus size wouldn't have to increase. Nvidia has been widening their lineup with the Ti apparently having become a standard part of the entire line-up since Ampere, so it makes sense for AMD to put up the XTX cards against the Ti...
  23. Discussion RDNA4 + CDNA3 Architectures Thread

    If the 5070 Ti is ~7900 XT is ~8700 XTX, then they line up with Nvidia again. I can how it is hard for them to call it the 8800 when the 4080 already beats the 7900 XT and 5080 is going to be faster still. And does AMD think that Nvidia will offer a good price/perf improvement for the 5060...

    Or a result of the mining boom, when they couldn't scale to meet demand. They lost out on a ton of sales back then because there just weren't any for sale.

    The same people who think that Beats headphones are the best and buy those, who eat at Salt Bae's restaurants, who buy the 'best hotas' in the Trustmaster Warthog, etc.
  28. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    No, but it makes it so that they can't blame the other side for their own failures. But that is exactly why they are working towards a split, so both of them can and have to show their own qualities, by working with other design teams/foundries.
  29. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    @NTMBK Of course the idea is that Intel's GPU designs will be competitive, hopefully before the AI boom dies. It would be pretty sad if Intel misses both the mining boom and the AI boom, and gets competitive just as the market craters. With the company split in two halves, neither half can...
  30. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    A flood would be dumb unless we somehow get a new mining boom or such. There are not enough buyers unless Battlemage will be some amazing leap ahead, but that's very unlikely.

  34. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    'Killing' it against Nvidia is a very tough assignment when even the 6600 couldn't beat the 3050. And Battlemage should be up against the 5060 for most of its life anyway. I'd just like to see something with a modest production quantity that is good enough so a bunch of REDACTED, adventurers...
  35. Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

    The current issue with the degrading CPUs may cause a major shift among OEMs, because I can only imagine how many service calls the OEMs get or will get for this.
  36. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    The question is how competitive Battlemage is going to be. No point in producing a massive number of GPUs only to have to sell them at less than cost. But releasing at least one card is probably needed to verify in reality how well the improved architecture functions in reality.
  37. News Intel GPUs - Battlemage rumoured cancelled (again)

    Perhaps Intel is waiting with a release until they catch up with their foundry. And perhaps they'll further debug Arc by releasing Battlemage as an iGPU only? Hard to say with so little information as to what they are actually planning & thinking.

    There are customers that more opportunistically switch between suppliers, like Nvidia.

    You don't seem to have read my reasons so to repeat myself again: - Games aren't specifically optimized for certain cards, the shaders are compiled for the specific card on the PC of the user - The shader compiler for RDNA3 is/was bad and often doesn't take advantage of dual issue opportunities...
