The return of LaserDisc: Dragon's Lair 2025 edition!
Is W1zzard's shilling now trying to compete with DF's?
Certainly guaranteed to continue to get favourable access to Nvidia stuff.
Or maybe a shareholder. Although after reading at least some of the sponsored "put down DeepSeek, and praise...
Sure. But then I meant any attempt to push 700W or 800W through those cards is suicide run territory anyhow IMO. Even on water. Certainly not something anyone tight (or sane) with cash would do!
Ignoring how bad a connector this is, how much overclock headroom can those 550W+ 5090 possibly have?
Maybe an overpriced overclocker's motherboard can give an out-of-spec 100W through the PCIe slots. Plus a risky 700W through the single connector. For a max total of 800W? Although more power...
While I don't necessarily disagree with that, maybe AMD not making 550mm² RDNA4 chip does make sense - because in that scenario it would only have existed so people could buy a more powerful Nvidia card for less!
I don't know about the earlier PCIe 8pin's 80% figure or the 90% claim for 12VHPWR, but surely 600W / 756W is about 80% which is far closer to 90% than 50%.
To this day, I can't see any possible advantage to these new connectors yet Nvidia stubbornly stick to them in some Apple-like "we know...
For Zen6 ISA feature best I could find is this post
Nevermind software developers, anyone working on AVX/AMX at Intel/AMD/VIA needs to feature table big enough to cover a whole wall just to know what they themself support. Software developers have it even harder as that whole-wall table really...
The magic firmware upgrade will fix ARL - especially in games - always has an extreme copium vibe to it IMO.
About the only way I might have bought it, is it we had tons of rumours of Intel launching ARL nearly totally unready. We heard some rumours of a slightly rushed launch but not enough to...
You mean created the x86 industry after killing all the competition in the 80s and 90s?
Since x86 was a really poor and ugly design which forced 64KB segmentation and the horrible things programmers had to back then (remember the Motorola 68000 was in the running for the PC and it has 32 bit...
It's a lot worse than 0.08? Which is when TSMC usually declare something high volume ready?
Wasn't there a previous defect rate milestone for 18A of 0.4 and some where projecting that is good at that earlier time as defect rates will always come down following some definite rules.
Might have...
While decades of Intel's hybris makes them a prime target of Schadenfreude, I think the main reason for scepticism with their announcements - especially in foundry - is that for the last decade+ we have seen them be very economical with the truth about claimed milestones, shipments etc. which in...
No go ahead. Probably needs another thread.
Maintaining the spreadsheet is about the sum of contributions here. Online spreadsheet or table tools just aren't as pretty...
But yes something for players to look towards should do. Just unsure how much info we can get without installing EBN.
By...
Welcome!
I think the drawcalls thing is nice but as it relies on ENB it makes it harder for users to submit results.
I know I've asked buyers of new CPUs to bench FO4 and even those who had done so previously are reluctant to do so again as they have to set things up.
A save which runs with...
Never mind the mad "x86 everywhere" mentality. Mobile and smartphones were all about volume, volume, and volume.
Intel - with a CPU design which was frankly an embarrassment in 1981 with the 8086 with a horrendous memory module, registers etc. - got where they were not because of any technical...
