How Open-Source Allowed Valve To Implement VULKAN Much Faster On The Source 2 Engine

Bridbge, you have to ignore the haters, or you're gonna lose your hair over threads like this. Come back to being the nice Bridge man, who gives us drivers, and info.

Most us know that it's ridiculous for us to armchair-CEO, from our basement PCs.

at least this armchair CEO isn't getting sued for a 100 million dollar security fraud.

Funny thing is why Valve choose OpenGL to port games

Its more: Because there is no other 3D API ...

If market goes this way for AMD in 2018. we should start spoke 汉语

你好吗 Bridgman?

The CPU development pipeline is pretty long -- CPU decisions you think were made in the last 5 years were probably made more like 10 years ago. Decisions we made in the last 5 years will show up in the CPUs you see a few years from now. Come back in 2017 or 2018 and then you can comment on decisions we made in the past 5 years.

to be fair, every decision AMD has made related to CPUs for the past 5 years has been ignorance.

Not quite true, those plays well where:

It makes sense that AMD's chip design strategy, which has always been about performance per dollar, is so well suited for a place where people generally have more brains than dollars.

Great China looks fine with ~75% of AMD revenues, but yeah in States, Europe, Japan where people generally have money, interest in AMD seems halfed

7% in USA, 8% in Europe... who cares

Just for once, could you (and I mean "you all", not just nightmarex and asdfblah) please stop assuming that every decision a company makes is driven by stupidity or ignorance ?

Stupid edit limit.

s/Implementing one Mantle driver/Implementing a Linux Mantle driver once/

You many not "give a fuck about Windows", but it still accounts for >>90% of our revenues so we need to care about it even so. Sorry but that's just the way it is.

Tell those chinamans to stop using Windows, issue solved I don't even being aware of their "14 year console ban" that somehow explain their Windows and high PCs only usage. Blah, they even don't use linux on servers like rest of the world

Funny thing is why Valve choose OpenGL to port games, one of the main points is because chinamans use Windows XP but have new hardware

Stupid edit limit.

Hopefully someday michael make something with Stupid edit limit
