Paul MaudDib posted:Yes. I bought a thinkpad with a FX 880M and did a bunch of CUDA development work on it. It was also an actual good gaming processor, I could play TF2 on it in the post-phenom era when AMD was struggling with the architecture that shall not be named. It's cute how instead of admitting that you're talking out of your rear end, you reflexively post something unrelated and hope no one notices 660m could be a Fermi or Kepler core, 860m could be Kepler or Maxwell and I'm pretty sure there was one 9XXm model that could be one of Fermi, Kepler or Maxwell. That's just off the top of my head and ignoring the DDR3 minefield.

I answered your question? I did buy a mobile chipset before Pascal. Let's talk FX 880M. What's the big deal?Arzachel posted:Hahaha, have you ever bought a laptop with dedicated graphics before Pascal Yeah, mobile and low-end chipsets have always been a minefield. That's not an NVIDIA thing though. AMD does that to this day. DDR3 versions of the DDR5 version of the GCN 1.0 card. That's a thing that AMD brands as a 500 series card. It's a DDR3 version of a 7700 HD. It doesn't even have FreeSync! How is that a 500 series card? Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 12:08 on May 17, 2019 |

I imagine you're fun to play football against, what with all the goal post moving. You're, once again, coming into a SHSC thread trying to dump sick burns on AMD (because you spent too much time on r/AMD again or what do I know, but it's apparently pathological) and can't handle that you're being called out for claiming Nvidia is honest about what you buy, which has not been true for a while. So now you're trying whataboutism by saying their misleading labeling of products is not as bad as AMD's  E: Also, BIOS-unlocking etc. is not "lootboxing", you are ridiculous. Would you feel better if they had put hard locks on those products? orcane fucked around with this message at 12:15 on May 17, 2019 |

the post I responded to was generic complaints about the 970 that were never actually explicated. just "970 bad". Let's just cut to the chase. The 970 does actually have 4 GB. If you have another complaint about the 970, please proceed. It's a good card, that kept up with the 290's supposed "finewine", and continues to do so (on average) even in 1440p, per GN Jesus's latest tests, even in titles and resolutions for which it is completely unsuited.

Please stop making this CPU thread about GPUs? We have the GPU thread about that. I share the incredibly negative viewpoint toward ex-ATI and didn’t want AMD to buy them, but this is not the place.

AMD should bake in some magic synergies if you use both their CPUs and GPUs, if you want to take the loot box metaphor to new levels

i like how fins are still the devil but an active fan on a flat piece of aluminum with a plastic cover is a-ok. They could put the stock ATI Rage 128 passive cooler on there and it'd probably do a better job in your average enthusiast system with a casefan.

Someone is gonna make bank with a aftermarket passive one that's just a pair of heatpipes bent into a L and a bunch of fins on one end, so you can snake it under the GPU slot and out by the ram area.

I might just wait and see if any X470 or B450 boards come out that are "Ryzen 3000 Ready" meaning no bios update needed and get one of those boards so I don't have to buy a more expensive X570 board that has a loud and annoying chipset fan. Edit: What AMD does at Computex is going to determine whether I wait for Zen 2 this fall/winter or just build a 2600X or 2700X rig late spring/early summer. spasticColon fucked around with this message at 20:43 on May 17, 2019 |

So if there will not be a Zen2 version of threadripper, all the socket TR4 mobos become orphan products? That kinda sucks for the people who are probably the biggest r/AMD fans.eames posted:i like how fins are still the devil but an active fan on a flat piece of aluminum with a plastic cover is a-ok. For transient loads the big dumb chunk of metal has the advantage of thermal mass. I think that's one reason mobo makers have switched to those, besides the aesthetic design thing. Even in a lovely setup with bad airflow they handle the average user scenarios pretty well. For the OCers using watercooling the current style of mosfet heatsinks are worse, but those guys are expected to know their cooling needs and make suitable fixes. Fins don't do much good if you have no / bad airflow. Think about what happens if the user has SLI'd videocards, a pair of blower-type coolers would not produce extra air movement on the chipset area and would block the case airflow from reaching a finny heatsink. There's really not much room for more. I think they've gone with the awful little mobo fan to cope with the bad cases and for people with good airflow and single video cards it will never be used.

Would be uncool to pull that halo product without sufficient warning ahead. There will probably be another Threadripper. It probably got folded under the generic Ryzen umbrella in the presentation to not take up unnecessary space in the presentation. I mean, the proper name is Ryzen Threadripper, not just Threadripper.

If they really launch 16 core consumer parts with Ryzen 3000 there's not a whole lot of room left for Threadripper that couldn't be covered with the highest tier of Ryzen or a lower tier Epyc.

High PCIe lane count and quad memory channels. I mean, there are 8 core Threadripper too, despite the 1800X and 2700X, and the reason for their existence was the above, too. --edit: Also, the EPYC don't clock that high in stock config. And going out of your way overclocking these, does that even work?
