"Vishera" End Of The Line for AMD FX CPUs: Roadmap

AMD 990FX chipset is PCI Express 2.0 compliant. Except Asus Sabertooth 990FX/Gen3 R2.0 mainboard, there is no PCI Express 3.0 mainboard by AMD!

Intel is planning to build new PCI Express 4.0 compliant mainboards at the last quarter of 2015 this year.

If AMD do not wish/need to ready a PCI Express 3.0 mainboard for high segment, this means that, they will not ready any PCI Express 4.0 chipset nor mainboard. So this means, if AMD can not jump to a lower level branch, they can not possibly reach to a higher level.

AMD is dying. Again, if they can not reach enthusiasts, they can not earn much money. Low level APU's are not much profitable. This means, they are close to high profit marge.

Sooner or later, they will close the shop! Their graphics card serie is not so good. This 2014 summer and the earlier 2013 summer, AMD did not managed to release a new graphics driver for 3-4 months. nVidia released 2 or more at the summer period for gamers.

If you have lately bought an AMD graphics card, all summer long in 2 years, you couldn't manage to load a new driver for your graphics card, which is a bad thing!

AMD graphics cards are working louder, compared with same level nVidia counterpart.

Shortly, AMD is no longer a good choice at all....

We should have a new member thread, where you have to post there at least once and before anyone approves you.


And if its a failure like these... human spam machines? Their IP and email should be published, you know, for the lulz.

I sometimes come across an old thread, not realizing it's an old thread, and I try to come up with a reply that contributes to the conversation only to be stopped by the "Click this checkbox if you really want to necro this". I struggle a little, but the checkbox always wins. I suppose that for some, it doesn't.

An introduction thread on TPU is something worth considering, I think, but it could hurt a bit. I've seen some people register just to ask a question and stick around afterwards because the community is pretty cool around here. Having an extra hoop to jump through would likely deter new members.

If a user gets out of hand, there's always the report button and the mods here have always been great (from what I've seen, at least). To quote Churchill, "democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others."

Or maybe it was one of AMD's infamous PR machine you were talking to that does nothing bang the drum for AMD and get people hyped before letting them down gently....

To coin a phrase - 'Phenomenal' then Intel turned around with a worn rolled up newspaper and beat 50 shades of green from AMD.


--- you can 'talk' to AMD folk, but unless their from the top, i wouldnt believe a word of any of the lackys they send to trade shows or exhibitions. Apart from showcasing their hardware, innovations and answering questions - their job is to hype future products.
