Venemo I revisited this (Haswell 2678V3, Vega56, Manjaro, 5.10.9 Xanmod with Calcule, KwinFT, libdrm-git, mesa-git as of today (cec2ed7c80f) and could...

Just from my own experiments, the right Kernel and Kernel configuration can have a huge impact on gaming, so to anyone who is willing to experiment, do...

GPU is Vega 56. It is hard to be more exact on the root cause as this might be as well an issue somewhere else in the stack as different Kernel versions...

[ms178]

As I am switching OS quite regularly, it might take some days or weeks, but I will do that eventually. As the game comes with an in-game-benchmark it...

Last time I tried (before Christmas) amdvlk was way slower, in the 45 - 50 fps range on my Vega 56 in that game....

[ms178]

Well, at least in the only game I benchmark on Linux regularly (Company of Heroes 2 via Proton), I saw a performance regression from 71 fps (somewhen...

Thanks, I wasn't careful enough with reading the press statement, but I assumed Nuvia was working on a server chip offering first and thought Qualcomm...

Could you re-test with the newest Beta BIOS - ROG CROSSHAIR VIII HERO BIOS 3102?!

From the changelog:
Update AMD AM4 AGESA V2 PI 1.1.9.0....

[ms178]

While Qualcomm hasn't had the guts to finish their own design to conquer the ARM server market, they now want to re-enter that market with such an acquisition?!...

I would have rather liked to see Jim Keller re-joining the company in an engineering role. Gelsinger left Intel because he couldn't deliver on Larrabee...

I use the following for KCFLAGS / KCPPFLAGS: "-O3 -march=native -mtune=native -mllvm -polly -mllvm -polly-parallel -fopenmp -mllvm -polly-vectorizer=stripmine...

I've tried it with Clang 11, but if I remember correctly I couldn't get it to compile with Sami's Kernel, but that was a couple of weeks ago. You could...

I saw one to three objtool errors but they weren't fatal for my build. Have you tried to disable Retpolines? I use a minimal config for my system and...

For anyone who wants to try Clang LTO on x86-64, just download the Kernel from Sami's clang-lto Kernel branch: https://github.com/samitolvanen/linux/...

[ms178]

I've tried it more than once, but the usability problems as desktop distro drove me away quickly. Here is my list: missing codecs and Chromium+VAAPI,...

[ms178]

Right, I missed these users. But at least the technical capability is there on Kepler+ to support it if these users were willing to use their non-open...

[ms178]

Don't get me wrong, I want progress to materialize sooner rather than later, but I find it interesting that there is a huge outcry when CPU ISA support...

[ms178]

I haven't seen too much stock in Germany either. I guess we can be thankful that AMD still uses Vega in the upcoming new APUs. It seems to be better suited...

[ms178]

I recommend to read the discussion between Felix and Daniel. Even though it is sad to read about dropped hardware capabilities between GFX9 and GFX10,...

[ms178]

That's exactly why I argued with Marek over the best default setting. I've written down my reasoning on Gitlab and while I don't have a problem with...
