Couple of months ago (January I think) I've tried multiple distros and drivers for gaming on desktop. HDR for games in linux is STILL non-existent in 2024, it was a major letdown for me. In games I play/tried I got much lower FPS. ~200FPS in Windows; same settings in Linux I got ~120 with...

"Ryzen AI 9 HX 370" - Well damn, it's ridiculous. I feel something is STILL missing. How about: "Ryzen AI 9 HX 370X3D"? :D All this AI and marketing still cannot come up with something... copy Intel. Here is something "original": ®AI-Zen5™ 77U AMD Ryzen™ 7 8840U would be: ®AI-Zen4™ 38U The...

This is what AMD wanted to achieve with project "Fusion" shortly after buying ATi back in 2006: https://images.anandtech.com/reviews/cpu/amd/roadahead/evolving2.jpg I still remember the image above. :) Step3: "The final step in the evolution of Fusion is where the CPU and GPU are truly...

This is a really good thought-through prank! It's good because it makes total sense and I'll be honest: when reading I forgot it's 1st of April... :D

Currently on an 6900XT anything above 144Hz sets the idle memory speed to 100% and the idle GPU power draw goes from 9W to 35W... (any driver since at least December).

Those are HUGE chips/tiles! They need 2 of those for top-end Xeon, right? I presume these are quite expensive wafers. Even if all chips have 0 defects (impossible) you can make around 30-40 top-end CPUs from one wafer?

"In December 2015, Intel acquired Altera for $16.7 billion in cash." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altera Money well spent... :)

Those where the times... :) 20 years ago, following your guide I've moded my Radeon 9800SE (4 pipelines) to Radeon 9800Pro (8 pipelines). It was 128 bit card though... still made a huge difference. So thanks for bringing back these memories! :D

Fake News. :D

"It's Not a Bug, It's a Feature." In case of AI uprising, all machines based on EPIC would automatically go to sleep after 34 months of uptime. Humanity saved thanks to this "feature"! :D

2211: year&week. Right? So this card was manufactured in March(!) ?

So many AVX512 instructions. :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVX-512

Captains Workspace was pretty close regarding the size of RTX 4090 in this April fools video! :D

Oh the irony... https://www.techpowerup.com/235092/intel-says-amd-epyc-processors-glued-together-in-official-slide-deck Seems the glue is weak on Intel side. :D

Those Intel 10 and 7nm yelds are terrible if they need to buy GF to meet demand. :D -sarcasm off AMD CPU in 1982: Designed by Intel. Made by AMD. AMD CPU(APU) in 2022: Designed by AMD. Made by Intel.
