As far as RX 590, if they aren't sampling me, I'll end up buying one when it becomes available... Obviously for Radeon Instinct that isn't an option.Michael Larabel

Their loss - not a lot of Linux benchmarks then, don't know how they aren't aware of my many and routine Linux benchmarks beyond the initial review of driver/kernel updates, other comparisons, etc.

That AMDGPU power issue with 4.18 was done by MS dev and someone told me how another MS dev breaks many third party drivers including FGLRX on same 4.18 kernel... but that was during merging somewhere, didn't inspected that yet

Maybe Microsoft will buy let say Canonical, so it does not matter... Merry ChristmasLast edited by dungeon; 08 November 2018, 12:42 PM.

MS bought Github this year, they also take i think 6 games developer studios just to make more XBOne exclusives and whatever else... so they could buy Canonical even without noticing it
Same way they break linux code without noticing it, so Merry ChristmasLast edited by dungeon; 08 November 2018, 01:19 PM.

Also some dev will eventually have a single unit plugged into their workstation to test and develop code before deploying on the cluster. Might as well use it to display stuff (like the editor) on the screen.
Both above together mean, that yes, you'll actually be able to play games. Though for that use, the extremely large memory might be a bit of over-kill, specially given the high price tag attached to it.
