just a general idea:
what would happen if one made an HSA enabled LLVMpipe implementation? Would this be beneficial? Or would this make no sense since applications are still written against opengl..?

For the price of a Kaveri and a special motherboard with DDR5, you could buy a faster Intel CPU, the same amount of DDR3, and a faster discrete GPU. It's a crazy idea.
When it's the stock speed recommended by the manufacturers it's no longer "exotic".
AMD's intial plans where to have GDDR5 dimms be optional, hence the JEDEC standard for the GDDR5m dimms. These would be optional and the spec is very close to what DDR4 ram is going to be later this year/early next year.Last edited by Kivada; 22 January 2014, 12:56 AM.

...well, and also whenever people fix btrfs-bcache interactions.

Personally, I wouldn't mind having embedded memory if it means a vast improvement in performance. Also, that'd actually be pretty neat for things like Steam Machines.
But then, I usually change CPU, motherboard, and memory all at once, so I have no issues with embedded memory, as long as it's quality, speedy, and there more than enough
Then they could create a big cooler to cool it all. It'd be heavy, but silent, and cool.

Imagine the same kind of thing taking 8x 16GB server sticks!
