AMD CES 2019 Keynote: Say Hello To Radeon 7 As 2nd Gen Vega

[pal666]

the frequency bump comes from the 4GB HBM2 memory dies. The fewer they have, the slower the clocks.

you are confusing frequency with bus width

[pal666]

And AMD still target shrinking desktop market first

first after server and console markets

and mobile last. In fact as it is I doubt I'd be getting any AMD powered laptop any time soon.

btw laptop market is also shrinking

Intel meanwhile would probably present 8-core 45w laptops CPU's soon.

article mentions amd-powered chromebooks and amd presented(without "probably") new mobile cpus

[pal666]

is this really the first amd cpu to get avx or avx-like vector units?

no, it's just double width compared to previous

[pal666]

most new users would not even look at desktop.

what planet you are from?

[Brisse]

no, it's vii as in vega 2

It's both I think. I didn't watch the keynote personally, but from what I've heard, Lisa Su actually called it Radeon seven (7) when she was on stage.

[pal666]

But you can get fast intel cpu 6+ cores with integrated graphics, and you can't get amd cpu with same core number and integrated graphics

you can get amd apu with fast graphics, and you can't get intel with same graphics

, given on average faster single core for intel... most would choose intel.

given always more expensive price for intel, most would choose amd

[pal666]

It's both I think. I didn't watch the keynote personally, but from what I've heard, Lisa Su actually called it Radeon seven (7) when she was on stage.

of course she called it seven(vii) because vii is seven. but she didn't write it 7

you really should think better before posting

I corrected my post soon after, I forgot memory prices were still sky rocket high, no real drops yet in market.

You however should maybe not spam post so much... ;-) And perhaps spend less time criticizing every single word I say, that's weird really!

[lu_tze]

wrong, they have radeon instinct for that

Wrong, Radeon Instinct competes against Tesla, not Geforce Ti.

I find the new AMD line-up of notebook cpus quite attractive and competitive with Intel.
Now, I hope that the OEMs finally build a notebook around these cpus that can keep up with the TDP so that the user can really use the power.

THe GPU they make for Intel APUs is better than their own: I said all.
