GCN isnt' a single ISA anyway... its a design architecture really, each version of the GCN ISA is not binary compatible with the others in all cases....

No it really was the Pentium 3.... which morphed into Pentium M and later conroe and core architecture, the P4 is the exact thing the Transmeta CPUs were...

Actually RDNA1/2 is has brought back some of the VLIW design.... and its likely that the same is true of CDNA. They are calling it Super SIMD....

[cb88]

Not entirely true, a counter example is Transmeta (good transistor density to power and performance) and Nvidia's VLIW ARM CPUs which are quite fast....

Legal precedent doesn't mean much if it was a bad ruling... "well established or no", there is also the fact that most schools receive government...

The answer is obvious... let HDMI die already.

I'm not sure if there is any individual word that truly offends me... there are worlds I don't say because I strongly prefer not to cuss. However, I have...

If rock solid sun4m (and those machines support from 64-512MB on common hardware and 1GB on rare hardware) hardware support is getting dropped this has...
