until last year I used a Core2Quad from 2008... I only upgraded because I needed a new mobo and RAM. That way I only ever had to pay big bucks for a good GPU and the rest is history

poty posted:the amd releasing a good cpu for once thing is irrelevant but everything else is pretty problematic op the problem with thunderbolt is that it's stupid thunderbolt 3.1 is good for up to 40 gbps of bandwidth. multiplexed inside that bandwidth, hypothetically, is usb 3.1 (10 gbps), pci-e 3.0 (64 gbps), and displays (48 gbps for hdmi 2.1) i think you can see how 10 + 64 + 48 doesn't add up to 40 gbps thunderbolt will never work as a bus, with multiple devices hanging off. it barely even has the bandwidth required to support an individual display.

Notorious b.s.d. posted:the problem with thunderbolt is that it's stupid lol. first, 4K/60 = 12gbps. pcie3 = 8gbps per lane so you can drive 2 4K displays and have enough bandwidth for all of your usb3 needs plus gigabit Ethernet plus a SATA controller and a sound card. and if you want a 4x pcie device, you can plug in the second thunderbolt port. it’s working great for me.

16k displays exist too, but DisplayPort for whatever reason has been slow updating for "newer and better things"(tm). When DisplayPort gets the bump no doubt Thuderbolt will too afterwards to match. Many TV networks and cable distribution are still only 720p so it's all a bit of a niche market. MrMoo fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Jun 23, 2018 |

32k displays are in the pipeline and when you buy one you'll discover 64k displays are about 2 months from coming out im not interested until they get to 256k. that is when I finally be content

if apple wanted to manufacture their own semiconductors, they could choose to merge with either intel or tsmc. (samsung is off the table because it is not really a public company despite the elaborate sham). but apple total market cap is 900B; intel and tsmc are each about 250B; total acquisition costs would probably be in the 300-400B range does anyone really, truly believe that vertically integrating the production stage would be worth diluting apple stock by 40-50%? plainly apple's management doesn't right now, without that final stage of integration, they have two fabs competing against each other (samsung and tsmc) with two more equally capable giants waiting in the wings (gf and intel). a fab acquisition would make them less, rather than more, valuable. (edit: in a world where apple owned tsmc or intel, they would have a harder time convincing samsung or gf to be a second source) Notorious b.s.d. fucked around with this message at 05:39 on Jun 25, 2018 |

i didn't quite realize their next process was so dead, or that the new amd chips were anything but :coresjester: . everyone's getting in on the digs at them lately thoquote:ast week Brian Krzanich resigned as the CEO of Intel after violating the company’s non-fraternization policy. The details of Krzanich’s departure, though, ultimately don’t matter: his tenure was an abject failure, the extent of which is only now coming into view.

Apple pre-buys commitments to lock competitors out of supply, get the best price, and sometimes corner the market on components. Apple squeezes them on margin when they compete and become commoditized. Apple does not do manufacturing, life is much better for them being the big customer.
