Still plenty of reasons to choose AMD GPU:

• Open source user-space components;
• Better price/perf in raster;
• Better efficiency in raster;

Actually,...

I have been using Ubuntu LTS'es since 2008. Does the job for me (as for embedded systems programmer) and plays nicely with proprietary SDKs (which usually...

birdie is bringing Trump into the discussion. I guess this time he is offended really bad by attacks on his religiously beloved NVIDIA (required to be...

[drakonas777]

Valid points. I do not disagree with them. However, my post was more about the mentality of birdie (a.k.a. avem) than the validity of his arguments per...

[drakonas777]

Yeah, just like the remaining 95% comments of yours. Perhaps you should create the third account for normal discussion without that trollish fanboyish...

Oh, I see our usual NVIDIA fanboys are defending beloved company yet again. Leave them alone I think, guys probably hadn't a sleep in two days fighting...

It's mostly multithreaded perf/area, which directly translates into multithreaded perf/$. Perf/W gains on the desktop as is are pretty insignificant actually,...

Perceived "horrible power efficiency" of x86 is partially caused by idiotic factory settings for CPU/platform. I've put my 3700X into 45W ECO...

[drakonas777]

I would not (I mean specifically desktop CPUs). Unless ISA between big and little cores are identical and full featured, not that disabled AVX512 (and...

[drakonas777]

Yeah, but the problem is OEMs do not want that, they want good performance during reviews. Furthermore most of 15W SKUs are actually boost'ing beyond...

I actually was thinking to get one (Macbook Air to be precise), but hesitated to go into Apple ecosystem. However, unfortunately there is no good alternative....
