If NAVI2 desktop GPU's utterly fail at competing with raytracing and compute features that RTX has then its poor value overall.

DLSS 1.0...

[theriddick]

The console GPU's are special custom versions and tailored for the consoles NOT PC gamers.

I'm worried that RNDA2 PC GPU's will be too pricey...

[theriddick]

Keep the improvements coming, another 100 or so and we will be in great shape. Shame NVIDIA refuses to go open-source and tap into MESA damn shame....

[theriddick]

Wonder how long NVIDIA is going to keep pulling this tantrum fit over their attempt to make EGLStreams the standard or whatever it was. I hope AMD's next...

[theriddick]

I was going to get into VM passthrou once AMD releases a decent 8core 16 thread Desktop APU. Who knows when that will happen.

Is there any user experience benefits using Wayland yet? (obviously you can't with nvidia drivers because they hate wayland).

[theriddick]

Will be interesting to see how this fairs against stuff like DXR and RTX.

I was always forced to resize the system tray icons via editing some config file in the user directory. They always appeared too small on 4k screens.

Pretty much all these vulnerabilities and mitigating fixes should be ignored by most if they require direct access to the machine or a machine on the...

I would LOVE to see RADV/Vulkan for AMD work better at 1080p and 1440p resolutions (mostly fine at 2160p). As we saw in the recent benchmark results,...

I ponder if this could somehow help remap windows anticheat software to function with native Linux versions of said software (proton). (apparently battleye...

[theriddick]

Yeah that's why I said apparently.
I watched a clip of Colbert where they asked several people on the street and 3 people seemed to think they should...

[theriddick]

Yeah I also noticed that people were reporting results (not sure if exclusive to nvidia cards) where their middle of the road cards performed at the level...

[theriddick]

Still waiting for Battleye and EAC support.

[theriddick]

This benchmark appears to be tad biased and favors NVIDIA cards. So not surprising AMD does pretty bad with it.

Windows Results for Comparison....

[theriddick]

I wonder how it looks under Windows, if NVIDIA blows away AMD there also then it would be pretty obvious whats going on.

[theriddick]

I do agree, the reasons and benefits need to be detailed and exampled.

For example HOW exactly does this increase security? and what type...
