    Polaris Refresh (RX 500 Series) Rumors

    Yeah, you confirm that you are fooled by Nvidia chip branding when deciding gpu tiers, like most of people out there and media. Nvidia's chip branding (GP104, GP106...) is just that, chip branding. Nvidia has never had a trend about having each chip targeted to specific gpu tiers. Here are some...

    Polaris Refresh (RX 500 Series) Rumors

    LOL so now low end range is priced at +250$/+300€? Good old Nvidia fooling people... 9Gbps is not coming to Polaris because AMD gpus have a harder time keeping up with such fast vram (historical behavior). Pascal can push 8Gbps to 2300MHz (9.2Gbps) easily and some even higher, but it is hard...

    [Part 1] Measuring CPU Draw Call Performance

    I see 2 issues with this test and your intention to compare the data with the new Ryzen cpus. 1- Draw call capability is very sensible and dependent to cache/memory bandwidth and latencies. It is a bit pointless to compare cpus performance in this area unless they are all tested using the same...

    Intel Broadwell Thread

    Well, these benchmarks don't tell you the whole story. The 5775c runs at a quite low speed, 3.7GHz. While it doesn't clock very high, 4.2GHz is a decent relative overclock (4.55GHz for the 6700k) and on top of that there is the EDRAM going up to 2GHz. Also, all DDR3 platforms use ram at 1866MHz...

    21:9 will never have 100% support in games.

    And why do you think TV standardized for 16:9? Initially, 5:3 was the ratio used for widescreen content. But since in UK and US 1.85 ratio was used for theatrical films, they ended up with the 16:9, a mid term between both standards. So yes, 16:9 isn't popular because someone decided to be it...

    21:9 will never have 100% support in games.

    21:9 isn't crippled by consoles, but by 2 aspects: - How its extreme ratio inhibits these monitors from being all around solutions. 16:9 is now the standard because is in the sweet spot, not too narrow for the panoramic content and with the enough amplitude for the vertical content like web...

    working mans guide "how to finance a high end gaming habit." :)

    How sad that you feel forced to upgrade every year and a half to whatever most powerful gpu you can find. Once you step away from the elitism of "full ultra or peasantry", you realize how a gpu can last, specially if it's a solid one with plenty vram at a reasonable price, like the HD 7950 or...

    Intel Iris Pro on 65-W TDP: availability?

    For Z97 Broadwell, Asus and MSI have the best support out there. Any z97 from those brands will allow to tweak settings to avoid throttling. I have the Z97M Gaming with the 5775c oced to 4.1/3.7GHz no throttling with auto settings.

    [Techno-Kitchen] GTX1060 3GB has major VRAM bottlenecks in Forza Horizon 3 & Mirror's Edge Catalyst

    Yes, I'm playing at medium settings with textures at low. I don't know if it's the game or a memory allocation issue. All I know is FH3 can allocate +2GB of vram in my system memory while not experiencing heavy stutter, I suppose this is due to how the game is designed as the xbox one has...

    [Techno-Kitchen] GTX1060 3GB has major VRAM bottlenecks in Forza Horizon 3 & Mirror's Edge Catalyst

    As an owner of a gpu similarly balanced as the 1060 3GB I'll give my opinion. I have a r9 285 (oced to 1100/1500MHz), very similar because a 1060 3GB is about 50% faster while having 50% more VRAM. This type of unbalanced gpus, not only are quickly outdated by vram limitations, they are...

    The 6700/6700k are neglected CPUs for budget builds and the 6600k is a farce.

    This. With the rest of a pc (8GB RAM, ssd+hdd, case and PSU) costing near 300 bucks, a +300 cpu+motherboard combo is a no-go for a budget build if you still have to add gpu price. And the 6600k isn't a farce. A lot of people play games (mmo, rpg, simulators) or work with professional software...

    RX 480 vs GTX 1060 (same price)

    Yes, the RS should be avoided as it's hot and louder as hell, while the GTR is one of the best options, similar to Gaming X.

    RX 480 vs GTX 1060 (same price)

    If the XFX is the GTR model I would go for that one. If it's the RS instead, then the Gainward 1060 would be the best choice for you, or the 480 STRIX if price isn't that far. Btw, Strix isn't that bad. It just needs a custom fan profile because there are issues with stock ones and Crimson...

    RX 480 vs GTX 1060 (same price)

    Let's put some things clear: - Does the 1060 consume less power? Yes, but differences are rather small, 50-70W average with some peaks of 100W if the 480 user goes nasty with voltage. - Is the 1060 a cooler and more silent gpu? That depends on the model you choose, but generally yes, although...

    That Sapphire Radeon RX 480 Nitro sure seems like a good card.

    No, 480 isn't that bad in terms of performance. Sure the 1060 beats it in older games, but in those dx11 launched this year and in dx12 the 480 matches or pulls ahead. And also no, the NITRO is not a good card. Hot as hell because Sapphire has fucked up pretty seriously with the ridiculous...

    AMD Polaris Thread: Radeon RX 480, RX 470 & RX 460 launching June 29th

    I think the future will go towards a more simplified lineup of gpus with bigger differences between tiers. Nvidia has already made wider the difference between 1080 and 1070 (75% of full chip) than the one in Maxwell. 1080 has 2560 CUDA, 1070 has 1920 and it is speculated that 1060 will have...

    AMD Polaris Thread: Radeon RX 480, RX 470 & RX 460 launching June 29th

    Yes, but that's just at dx11 in a quite old synthetic benchmark. We still don't know the true power consumption (anyone thinking the rx480 will consume 150W should realize he's wrong). We still don't know how far it will overclock. We still don't know the real performance in dx11 games. We...

    AMD Polaris Thread: Radeon RX 480, RX 470 & RX 460 launching June 29th

    I have to say these benchmarks seem all fake. With bios editing you can achieve pretty much anything: - Frequency showed in Crimson is only the max stated in the bios, but not the real one. - 90ºC with a 290x lighting cooler in a 14nm gpu of a TDP lower than 150W is really a joke. - 8pin+6pin in...

    CPU for the DX12/Vulkan Gaming Era - 6 cores or 8?

    DX12 stops seeing benefits beyond 6 cores. In fact, what really bottlenecks dx12 performance is the memory. L4 turns a 4c/4t cpu into a near 6c/12t, and it is the reason why the 5960x performs a little better than 5820k/5930k (a bit more cache): The perfect cpu for DX12 is a 6c/12t with...

    Max single thread performance = 6700K OC?

    Overclocking is the only solution that would bring tangible benefits. Getting a 6600k with +3000MHz ddr4 and overclock it to 4.8-4.9GHz would bring a +35% performance in single core. Moving to 6700k or 4790k at stock only means a 10-15% more performance in single core, which is not enough for...

    Truth or Myth?: Is SYSmark a Reliable Benchmark?

    ITT: We list current generation CPUs that are in most need of improvement

    The i5 6400 turbo boost is 3.1-3.2-3.3-3.3, while turboboost for the i5 6500 is 3.3-3.4-3.5-3.6. There's not such a big difference, specially with the new SpeedStep that makes that locw base clock from the 6400 a bit irrelevant.

    Why Tonga and Antigua fail?

    I wouldn't categorize Tonga as a failure, as we should do the same for all GCN architectures released. First of all, it is not a good idea to measure the success of a chip comparing size and transistor count with the performance, since a part of any chip is not related to the rendering process...

    MX-2 versus MX-4?

    MX-4 is just a tad better in terms of performance, but we're talking about decimals of a ºC. Also it can be much more expensive. In Spain I can buy twice the amount of MX-2 than MX-4 for less money (8g of MX-2 at 7€, while 4g of MX-4 costs 7,9€).

    Turboboost limitation

    Turboboost and frequencies are determinated by: - Type of workload - Number of active cores - Estimated current consumption - Estimated power consumption - Processor temperature I think it's pretty much impossible to know exactly when it activates or when it changes, since that would require the...

    R9 380x rumor and speculation thread

    A max overclocked 960 is barely better than a stock 380. And a stock 380x will better than a stock 380, since frequencies are bumped quite a bit: 1070/1500 vs 970/1375. The new 380x will crush the 960, between a 380 and a stock 290, and should be a tad better than a 780.

    Does Skylake have an unusual amount of errata?

    Skylake has 53 known erratas. In comparison, Broadwell has 89 erratas and Haswell 153. Supply shortages could be for several things, probably shortage in the productivity of the new fabrics with 14nm to not be able to supply the demand, waiting for the eliminations of stock from vendors...

    Intel Skylake / Kaby Lake

    Or the EDRAM. Look what it has done with the 5775c, making it better than 4790k in some games with dgpu, while running at 600MHz less. Or blasting skylake in winrar or some emulators very memory intensive. Now add the cpu performance of Skylake at 4.6-4.7GHz.

    Can't overclock i7-5775C on ASRock Z97 Extreme9

    There are other ways to make an overclock stable without using prime95, which pushes the cpu beyond its limits. There's no real use that reaches the amount of stress put by prime95. So why limiting the overclock (because prime95 requirements are much higher than even most other stressed tests)...

    Can't overclock i7-5775C on ASRock Z97 Extreme9

    ASRock is the only brand that hasn't updated the first bios supporting Broadwell. Asus, Gigabyte and MSI have all launched updated bios with improved support.
