That is an awfully misleading graph. Granted, that seems to be par for the course with benchmarks.

JawnV6 posted:Whoa. Wow. Manhattan Project level resources? Holy poo poo that's got to be huge. So your complaint is that saying it would need to be on the scale of the Manhattan project is understating the issue. How does that invalidate his point? EDIT: And trying to use Samsung's employee count in this comparison is specious. Only 20% of their revenue comes from semiconductors. You might as well use Walmart's employee count. ohgodwhat fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Nov 28, 2012 |

Is that public funding ~10 billion a year? Also, what's with all of the incredibly smug rhetorical questions?

Professor Science posted:either that or Power stuff starts coming out. I think it's much more likely that the EU funds ARM enough to be a thing in servers rather than IBM somehow making money on Power to continue meaningful development, though. Is Power dying too?

Sorry, I really did misread you. I thought you were implying games had to be programmed specifically to use dual or quad channel memory to see any improvements above single channel memory.

Phone posting or else I'd do it myself, but could someone make a plot of those scores vs the price?

Well it says they reject heat at a rate of 100-350 W/m^2, and you can't fold it up like a normal heatsink, so it sounds bad... Edit: to be clear those would work, just poorly.

Truga posted:All the files are 100% "fragmented" all the time on every decent SSD due to internal wear balancing shenanigans. I don't buy it. Not an expert on this by any means, but I think you're confusing two levels of fragmentation. SSDs have no issue with internally fragmented data, as you said, but there's another layer of fragmentation, at the OS/filesystem layer where reading one chunk of data can be represented either as one request of "give me this 1 MB contiguous block" or 1000 requests of "give me this 1 KB block" That fragmentation can be detrimental to performance as there is overheard involved with creating, transmitting and servicing such requests, I imagine.
