Any news on the supposed issue AMD CPUs have with Nvidia GFXes compared to Nvidia as AdoredTV pointed out? I'm still considering an AMD CPU, but with poor game performance on a future Nvidia card, I feel like I still have to go with Intel.

Shut it off, went to bed, went to work this morning, came home went to turn on my computer and...... nothing. Everything else turns on fine the CPU fans are going, GPU turns on, I can hear my platter have storage drive turn on but absolutely no POST, beeps or anything with zero video output. Usually this is for new hardware, but hey.

It's all "known", but it's still hard to put it all together if you're doing some light googling without someone breaking it down for you.

Can anyone explain to a dweeb like me why Intel are using iGPUs and AMD aren't and what the pipelines for both are? Intel keep fumbling, and I'm a bit worried about Coffee Lake, but I also like the eventual Adaptive Sync support that a modern iGPU might support.

It is pretty weird that so few bother to do more extensive testing with different components. Like AMD or not, there are clearly some different results depending on game, graphics card, and even RAM.

Any good videos or reads on how specifically game devs implement multicore support? Do they put netcode and physics on one core etc sort of like PhysX, or is it more about basic parallellization?

Horn posted:Up now quote:Due to the difference in memory latency between the two pairs of memory channels, AMD is implementing a ‘mode’ strategy for users to select depending on their workflow. The two modes are called Creator Mode (default), and Game Mode, and control two switches in order to adjust the performance of the system. It sounds simple enough so far, but AMD decided to make it more complicated than it ever needed to be.

You can also do some really cool things with Thunderbolt to create are more simplified endpoint device for peripherals; check 10:46 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NshXgisNly4&t=646s Also makes switching between desktop and laptop and using your laptop as a workstation a lot easier, or at the very least cooler.

Is there a rough way of figuring out how many cores you'd use and need? Games have started to support six cores, but say I have something like: * An open browser in the background * OBS streaming * OBS recording Would this mean that OBS takes up one core - or thread - for each task on top of the six cores being utilized, assuming I have the cores to spare, or is the scaling/parallellization different? I'm just wondering how vertical and horizontal something like this is, and how I can try to make sense of how many cores I could need and use ahead of choosing a CPU once I have to weigh Coffee Lake against Ryzen.

Man, that's awesome news. Coffee Lake looks like a real nothingburger with no upgrade options. Getting an 8C consumer-level Ryzen with just the option of upgrading to another AM4 CPU would be pretty dang swell.

Was that for me? I meant I'd prefer (Ry)zen 2's AM4 to CL 370/390's no path of upgrading.

The 99th percentile performance if Intel vs AMD is pretty disgusting. Selling people on Ryzen as a videogame CPU is hard, and marketing CPUs to "content creators" (ugh) is still a new concept, but looks like that's what AMD needs to do given how the videogame performance looks.

This i5-760 is getting reeeally loving annoying. But there just hasn't been a good time to upgrade in the last three-ish years I waited to see what would turn up. Today I realized I have to lower my audio buffer size to keep my audio from screwing up. OTOH, maybe I should just take one for the team and upgrade so something revolutionary can come along two weeks later.

Is there an microarchitectural reason why Intel beats AMD so hard in single-thread performance, or is it more due to incremental improvements over time?

Would Intel change the numbering on their processors to something like 8401 if they change the stepping to address this?

New Zealand can eat me posted:Does he say which firmware he's running on/which ones hes tried? IIRC ASUS has pushed multiple beta and maybe even a release firmware update out with hilariously unsafe defaults (like 1.8v SOC!!!) They? or maybe another company also recently pushed out older fw with a new name.
