Better to cool only if the bigger cooler is used, and the "unfused" parts of the die are not concentrated all in one spot. Compared to a regular AD104, the AD103 may be more inefficient as a 4070, because even though shaders and memory bus are "fused out" is there any wasted power with these...

I like to see some performance and power usage benchmarks of the "embedded version" A380E Even if the performance is a little reduced, has performance/watt increased? And are the hardware AV1 encoders fully supported, or dropped?

... a legal rip-off of unsuspecting shareholders that might misunderstand the small print. Expect more of this. If you search for Tutanova LLC Delaware, you will find they approach every listed company. It's obviously a rip-off game that works for them...

Gravity?

Through experience, I no longer buy "parkside" bargains. They just aren't worth the time lost to find receipt, return and replace. My advice: don't impulse buy in the supermarket. If you see something that takes your fancy, go home and google/amazon product and then buy a more expensive better...

Yes.

WaaSMedicSvc (Windows as a Service Medic Service) should really be called WWD (Windows Witch Doctor).

Fp4! I dread to think about the type 1 and type 2 errors that can occur with ultra-low precision nibble Artificial Inference. It is such a blunt tool. If it’s a nail, it will work. If it’s a screw it won’t. And will the “users” of the Ai output have any clue

Oh, so you are advocating NO LAPPING AT ALL because the mounting mechanisms bend the CPU/IHS anyway. That's actually a really useful takeaway from this whole thread. Don't waste your time lapping. Alternatively, breakdown an old mainboard, mount the CPU in the mechanism, lap it at 60C, then...

Has anybody done a study of HOT lapping vs. COLD lapping. Afterall, if the CPU is going to be operating at, say, 80C, then it should be lapped at that temperature. Difficult to do. Possibly easier to do at 50C. But there is little point lapping at 20C and thinking that the die and housing...

My new Ferrari has 0-60mph in 2.1 seconds tyres. But I won't tell you the engine only does 0-60mph in 5.2 seconds. That's in the small print. Let's just focus on the connection to the road!

Please give more info on usage scenario, number pages, output format. I have a couple of HP9200 network scanners. I’ve retired them. Using an iphone with Scanner Pro app is just as good if not better for b&w and half tone documents, output pdf. Scanner Pro helps me to scan documents into PDF or...

Better would have been 4x mini DP with HDMI dongle available to buy.

“I have a different viewpoint, experience, wish”. It’s not a negative, but it’s a different. What is the emoji for that? I have to say in my experience sites that have thousands of emojis have too many and 99% dont get used and still what i want to express isnt an obvious emoji. i’d prefer the...

C164. Keep your eye on that one.
