    I think several of you should read (or re-read) this analysis: http://www.numberworld.org/blogs/2024_8_7_zen5_avx512_teardown/

    [Rumor, Tweaktown] AMD to launch next-gen Navi graphics cards at E3

    Do you guys think there will be another revision resolving some of these outstanding bugs prior to launch? I guess it's unlikely, with launch being a month away.

    [Rumor, Tweaktown] AMD to launch next-gen Navi graphics cards at E3

    There's 87 job postings with AMD in Markham, 74 in Shanghai. Both locations have a mix of software & hardware engineering, and seem to focus on GPUs and APUs. The rumours about Markham's death within RTG are exaggerated...

    [HPC Wire] Cray Shasta w/AMD EPYC Lands DOE NERSC-9 Contract

    And Zen 3 is supposed to be an evolution over Zen 2, not the "revolution" that is Zen 2.

    64 core EPYC Rome (Zen2)Architecture Overview?

    I thought we'd agreed on each Zen2 chip having 8 cores, 1 memory channel. The AM4-cpu-package will thus max out at two chips + IO, while TR4 will have four chips + IO.

    AMD Artic Islands at TSMC, why not GloFo?

    It seems like the next GCN will be, like its forebearers, manufactured at TSMC, c.f. http://wccftech.com/amd-arctic-islands-next-generation-graphics-16-nm-finfet-tsmc/. This all the while AMD uses GloFo for their APUs. I assume there would be some gains for AMD if they were able to target a...

    Xbox One with DDR4?

    Good points guys. I was thinking more in the line of the bandwidth being the same, albeit with slightly better latencies. The target for games would still be the original Xbox One.

    Xbox One with DDR4?

    Finally there's DDR4 chips available that, configured to 128 bits, c.f http://fudzilla.com/news/memory/38505-g-skill-shows-ddr4-4266mhz-memory-at-idf-2015, can match the bandwith of the current 256-bits DDR3 configuration used in Xbox One. When porting the xbone apu to 14nm, is it likely that...

    AMD Carrizo Pre-release thread

    Seems like the work AMD put into the new FPU pay off, from 50 -> 99% IPC improvement. http://www.planet3dnow.de/cms/18564-amd-piledriver-vs-steamroller-vs-excavator-leistungsvergleich-der-architekturen/subpage-aida-fpu/

    Fury/x Voltage Unlock Incoming

    Someone managed to overclock the HBM to 1ghz - 100% overlock http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?p=400893#post400893 I guess that would eliminate any latency issues HBM got at 500mhz.
