It is strange they are shutting down just when their iGPUs are getting good.

There is too much competition in the mini market that intel just can't compete against.
Also, the Ryzen iGPU is better at gaming, and the gaming NUC got a lot bigger then what the concept initially planned out.

It is better for intel to cut wasted RnD, and just let 3rd party handle it for things like concept which i think NUC's are included in.

most modern video cards in the dedicate realm can be cut down significantly and use less pcb.
Yesn't.

They were Fury/Vega gfx with 1st gen HBM.

HBM based gfx card PCBs can be significantly smaller as integrating VRAM with the processor package takes out all that routing to individual VRAM chips.

Even more so again if you cut out all the display output routing for headless compute accelerators:

Unfortunately Fury's were not the best durable cards.
Many constantly failed, and because of HBM, they were very expensive to repair i hear, so it wasn't worth it.
Also they were the mining king cards.

We need a form factor like that in desktop. Get rid of all the dumb fire hazard PCIe power cables, get rid of the enormous coolers that just dump 300W of heat straight into your case. Deliver power through the board pins, and have standard cooler location and mounting mechanism so that the chassis can be properly designed around cooling the GPU.

I'd amend that to be dual chambered with a standard location for CPU and GPU cooling.

Now I want someone to PC mod an easy bake oven. If they haven't already.

Are you challenging me?
(in Uncle Rogers Chinese voice)
I accept your challenge sir...



This PC EZ-Bake Oven actually fits into your spare 5 1/4″ drive bay, and works on your computer’s power source!

yes we had a lot of dumb pc stuff back in the days, before we got rgb bling and other stuff.

The ATX case layout is no longer fit for purpose.
Kind of odd that Nvidia, with its unprecedented market share, influence and financial power and no stranger to doing its own things, hasn't pushed for a new case layout yet.

I don't think Nvidia really has the platform reach in consumer desktop to do that. The CPU vendors are in a better position, but given that every past attempt has failed, can't blame them for being reluctant to try again.

Precisely. although one must look out into the yonder and ask whether it ultimately affects in the benefitical arena of jensen's ego, and if it does, you can bet your sweet little petootie he through nvidia would push for a new standard, otherwise why waste money?

Youtube comedian.
ive looked him up. I've seen him as a popup image in videos. I'll skip videos of him as comedy is very subjective and most comedians are terrible at their lack of craft. cheers for the info. now if you'll excuse me i shall prepare for intel's eventual funeral in a decade, provided I'm still living then.

I see, I don't follow a lot of youtube personalities I couldn't name one I watch regularly. none of the cooking videos interest me, I'm more of a buy a recipe book and follow it type of bloke. youtube has only been useful in a few instances where going by the book didn't work out well like trying to make gnocchi but it turned out to be dense lumps of bready turds. they never tell you trad gnocci is hard to make and the ricotta one is simpler for cooking newps.

there is a Youtube review here which includes comparisons to other AMD APU based products, pretty good comparison
