AMD Raven Ridge 'Zen APU' Thread

An HP Envy has dual channel RAM up to 8GB, so make sure your monkey's paw has the same number of fingers held up that it used to: https://youtu.be/wpWHL34G52o

Then shell out for the 16GB SKU so you'll have adequate RAM for modeling, it'll be 2*8GB.

Or just buy an extra DIMM of RAM. Your average user isn't going to be graphically taxing the hell out of an ultralight system. It will display web sites, Netflix, and documents fine. If it were for gaming, it wouldn't be an Envy, it would be an Omen. If it were for professionals, it would be an...

AMD Raven Ridge 'Zen APU' Thread

I mean the x86 Chromebooks seem to be working fine on the apps front. There has been some hubbub about the ARM based Samsung Chromebook Plus having marginally better Android app performance than the x86/Intel chipped Chromebook Pro, but the standard ChromeOS functions are better on the Pro...

Starting in the next few weeks, it should be all Chromebooks will have full Google Play Store app support. It's been in beta for a long time, it'll be really nice once it's fully up and running. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

It says right on the first page up to 16GB of RAM, I imagine that would be two SODIMMs, and since it's one CCX it won't get quite the same boost from RAM frequency as the desktop models. Maybe not as gimped as imagined? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Hopefully we'll be getting some Freesync/2 monitors on these mobile products as well, which will dramatically improve the experience. 1080p30 on medium with Freesync on a laptop would be perfect for most folks, I think. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I'm too thirsty for RR news for this kind of tease. Looking like it's getting 1080p30 medium, though? That's not bad at all. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I mean, there's a lot of thermal room for it. The i7 5700HQ and 970M come out to ~150W full tilt. I'd even be willing to sacrifice some performance for additional battery life. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I'm really hoping for a 95+W SKU that'll work in mobile form factors. I'm happy with the performance of the 970M in my laptop, and would be thrilled to get that kind of performance for the same total system wattage in something that has XPS 15 build quality. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Oh neat! Thanks, I guess I wasn't following as closely as I thought. Hopefully performance will be close on desktop form factors and we won't have to wait for Navi for it. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

You'll probably be able to get 900p medium 30FPS+, which gets you more or less console quality gameplay. Throw in a Freesync 2 screen on a laptop or what have you and I think a lot of folks will be very happy. E: especially if tile based rasterization finally starts working. Sent from my...

Vega/Navi Rumors (Updated)

I know this is a little bit back, but I'm curious what the die area on Instinct MI25 is vs V100. V100 is so so big that a die size advantage might be a big deal for AMD.
