  1. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    The standby performance is pretty good. That is probably the most significant notable difference in day-to-day use. Personally, I don't mind there being fans on a laptop as long as they aren't running all the time in reasonable workloads. 2-in-1s and tablets make better sense for fanless...
  2. Discussion NV Re-Enter ARM PC market in 2025!

    I think people are being a bit myopic regarding GPU performance. It is important for some people in some workloads. Not everybody games, and with the NPU the GPU is prioritized for these non-graphic workloads as well. I am not sure who buys a T&L to play games locally, but GFN and Gamepass...
  3. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Exactly, I'm not sure why Apple would do what they did on purpose. Typically you want products to be on sale long enough to pay back the investment to create and produce them in the first place. MTL is the same story, imho. Guilty as charged. Screen on full brightness (although in my...
  4. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Awesome, thank you! This confirms my previous suspicions that the Omnibook X was efficiency-oriented. That being said, I have determined that I must be a very heavy battery user. I'm getting between 6h~10hr w/ this Omnibook X, which is better than anything I've ever used before, but I was...
  5. Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

    I think the tradeoffs AMD has made for Strix make sense (as of now). Do most laptops need high levels of SIMD performance? Particularly when they already have a GPU and now NPU as well? What drives me crazy is when things are disabled just for market segmentation. A different die implies...
  6. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Honestly, yeah. Without the Recall features it is just another laptop. I actually bought the Omnibook X, though they are more or less identical. Here are my first impressions (after owning it for 2 days, and not really getting to use it above and beyond setup). For background, my previous...
  7. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    A lot more stuff works in WSL than native windows. It shouldn't be too far off.
  8. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    My initial impressions: After a rocky OOBE (multiple crashes, including one hard crash that made me question if the hardware was bad) - which included a lot of updates - everything is up and running! For the most part, everything works fine, and the machine feels very quick despite it being the...
  9. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Yes, if it works, the feature will be life-changing for some. Annnd they had it storing everything in plaintext 🤦 Edit: Prism sounds like a huge leap forward. This was my biggest worry, so I am excited to see if some previously unusable software now works on WARM (Anaconda distro in particular).
  10. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    It's not terrible, but the loss of Recall does hurt the value-prop this early. Also, I've heard/read in a few places that sleep works really well - something I've never experienced on a Windows laptop (although the closest was a wintab with the Atom Z2760). It really is idle power/sleep...
  11. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Yep, with all the delays with Recall I was considering going for STX but it just doesn't look like it is going in the laptops I want. Lunar Lake is coming too late (my Spectre up and died on me) and I am not too interested in MTL. FWIW, everything is now sold out at my local store. From what...
  12. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Picked up an Omnibook X from BB. We will see how it goes (won't get to play with it until tonight). Bummed out about the 16gb of RAM vs. 32GB, but eh, I don't see 32GB models available anywhere, and its either this or MTL...
  13. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Yikes, had to cancel when my pre-order went from 'shipping June 17th' to 'shipping sometime mid-September'. Told them to just forget it. Sounds like maybe it was a blessing in disguise.
  14. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    I am pretty bummed about recall being delayed, tbh. Why not just have it off, or even hidden by default? Oh, well. At least it seems that Phi Silica will be ready on day one. Depending on how good that model actually is, it could be a real game changer. Now that I think about it, AI will...
  15. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Exactly, that's my point. Like mobile chipsets, there is no model-TDP map, it's whatever oems want to do. The M4 makes this really clear. Give it enough cooling and it'll run much faster. I hope this marks the beginning of sane power limits in windows laptops. Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong...
  16. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Maybe so. The models with the higher elites usually boasted ~45W TDPs. I've never seen that highlighted before, but I think architecture +TDP will be more useful going forward.
  17. Discussion Qualcomm Snapdragon Thread

    Anyway... Tbh, I am very excited for mainstream ARM systems. If Microsoft manages to get a multi-ISA platform off the ground we're potentially entering an era of amazing competition in client cpus. I pre-ordered an Omnibook X w/ 32gb of RAM. Really conflicted over whether the NPU will...

    Amazing this code base can almost vote!
  19. Question ARM lawsuit against QCOM/Nuvia !

    The x86 and RISC-V vendors must be so happy about this news. ARM is really shooting its ecosystem in the foot here. Any company considering building its own cores are going to be pushed away from using ARM as the instruction set, if this is how they treat licensees. I get it that it is...
  20. Question AMD Phoenix/Zen 4 APU Speculation and Discussion

    I don't think there is any reason I am aware of that suggests 50% of total system power should always be dedicated to the CPU for maximum efficiency. It would seem to me that this would be highly dependent on what the task actually is. Conceptually, computers are systems with many...
  21. Question Which CPU is better for DOS Emulation for DOS Games?

    Can't really say that until OP clarifies what they're trying to do. Never enjoyed timing glitches myself...
  22. Question Which CPU is better for DOS Emulation for DOS Games?

    What exactly are you trying to do? A smart toaster could probably run these games faster than native. Are you asking which one is the absolute fastest so you can get 10,000 fps in say, frogger? Regardless, you will be limited by your monitors refresh rate with either of those CPUs.
  23. Question Random reboots started, try to trouble shoot offending component?

    Is this what is going on? I've never had so many issues with USB stability. I just picked up a pcie aib - no more stability issues. Gigabyte B450 Aorus M

    Didn't seem to work. I really hope future AMD motherboards handle USB better...
  25. Question Intel and AMD system stability poll

    I have a Gigabyte Aorus B450 with the latest BIOS. Disabling DF C-States makes it better but doesn't fix things. Thanks for the suggestion, though. Basically, my issue is plugging/unplugging devices will eventually kill all/most of the ports on the board until a physical power cycle. Really...
  26. Question Intel and AMD system stability poll

    Let's see, here are the chips I remember owning, in roughly the right order, except when grouped: 8088 286-486 Pentium 1-4 (inc. DC P4's and SC P4's with HT) K6-2 T-bird Athlon XP C2D Phenom 2 Bobcat Haswell AMD FX-8320e Skylake Ryzen 1000 and 3000 series Icelake In my experience the Intel...
  27. Discussion Intel current and future Lakes & Rapids thread

    It kind of blows my mind Intel keeps trying to price discriminate through instruction extensions. It's like they don't actually understand why x86 is the golden goose it is. AVX-512 should be in most if not all of their designs. Each CPU doesn't have to be able to execute it quickly, but it...
  28. News NVIDIA and MediaTek want to bring RTX graphics to ARM laptops

    Do we know for a fact that the Exynos chipset is going to be ARM based? This could be x86+radeon+Samsung IP blocks. Alternatively, as you say, maybe they're working on a jointly branded ARM SoC as a way for AMD to hedge against ARM. Exciting times.
  29. Motorola

    What's your price range? You might want to look at some used phones on Swappa if your price range is a few hundred dollars. You can pick up a used Samsung Galaxy S9 or LG G8 ThinQ for around that. My S9 was probably my favorite smartphone so far. The S20 FE is faster for sure, but you can...
  30. Question SMS/MMS Compression Issues Samsung Galaxy S10e - Factory Reset and Sim Switching Hasn't worked

    This is a weird one, maybe somebody here can help me out. I have a Samsung S10e on Visible (Verizon MVNO) with a really strange and persistent issue. Basically, every MMS received is heavily compressed (<100kb) and only the first frame of any GIF is displayed. I have another phone, a Samsung...
  31. Question I7-10700KF is making me weak in the knees.

    GPUs have way too much overhead involved in their production to make this practical. They will always be (at least tied to) high-volume products. I think once the mining-boom is over, the $200~$400 market is going to show a lot of life, new and used.
  32. Discussion i7-11700K preliminary results

    Hopefully the days of buying a flagship CPU and it still having flagship performance 2+ years from purchase are over. I'd rather have rapid progress - I agree that the Zen 2 cores in the PS5 and Series X/S (not to mention the potatoes in the Nintendo Switch) will keep contemporary high core...
  33. Discussion Intel current and future Lakes & Rapids thread

    Unless Intel is sandbagging with these BIOS, looks like it is pretty clear Rocket Lake is going to enter the pantheon with the Pentium 4 and Bulldozer. Alder Lake launching so soon after Rocket Lake was the first hint, although I also hope it is an indication that Alder Lake will be a...
  34. Discussion i7-11700K preliminary results

    Realistically, this is going to change almost nothing. Everybody is still waiting for the 30th to see how things shake out. I think it's funny the criticisms this site gets, biased against AMD, biased against Intel, too slow on reviews, (now) too fast on reviews. I've always found the...
  35. Discussion i7-11700K preliminary results

    I too can provide a hint: I play RPCS3, which I believe uses AVX-512. Performance is TERRIBLE on a 1065G7. Did some investigating,it throttles immediately. Under clocking to < 2ghz results in poor, but at least consistent performance. Sent from my KFMAWI using Tapatalk
  36. Discussion Intel - the cost of BACKPORTING

    Of course they didn't know Rocket Lake was going to turn out this bad (assuming it did, which seems likely). Yes, there are simulations but physical implementations matter too, and they're ... physical. My guess is the physical implementation of this killed it - maybe due to the latency...
  37. Question Why my Overclocked Ryzen 3700x not showing any performance increase in Game FPS as well as 3ds Max Render time?

    Since they're bottlenecked by the CPU, increasing CPU speed should help alleviate that bottleneck. If you're GPU is pegged @ 100% when gaming, you're not going to see much (if any) improvement from OCing the CPU. I have an RX580, which is a bit slower than the 1660 but in the same league, and...
  38. Discussion Intel current and future Lakes & Rapids thread

    Well, Skylake is a pretty good design, right? Slim it down, add more advanced power management, clock it reasonably, introducing the new 'Atoms' @ 10nm. I think having Big and Little cores allows a lot more flexibility in design. You can have a Skylake-lite design that still provides decent...
  39. News [Bloomberg] Samsung Considers $10 Billion Texas Chipmaking Plant, Sources Say

    Interested in hearing more about this - that shouldn't happen and sounds like grid mismanagement wherever you are from - wind turbines freezing is not something unexpected and fairly easy to plan for. Kinda like a rainy day for PV - if you're running on the ragged edge with unfirmed capacity...
