I'll take it you don't play in 720p that often?You are giving the CPU too much credit for your graphics speed.
Even with a CPU of 100Ghz I don't think there is 30% left to rise to 100% GPU performance.
I had in mind specific titles where it would be easy as very ST focused games.You are giving the CPU too much credit for your graphics speed.

Hahaha another delay? It may as well not exist. Hmm okay I'll try! Wait, what is Intel's launch cadence now? Seems like "never" or "very late".It reportedly just got another delay. You'll need to wait one Q more according to Digitimes via Hardwaretimes. I reckon Intel needs your diligent push for it to keep up its cadence more than AMD.![]()
That is pretty good news, assuming they can get Zen5 out by 2023 (if Zen4 is a 2022 CPU now, I have my doubts, but we will see). And AMD was clever enough to layer their development projects starting with Zen2.So again AMD started work on Zen 5 at least 5 years before it will come out.
Well they have had Zen2, 3, and 4 in development simultaneously, more-or-less. On a design level, I think they've managed their teams quite well.As for the development cadence - AMD is a relatively small company. They don't have the manpower to push so many products in parallel, I guess.
That is also possible. Resources may have been directed towards extending the shelf life of Zen2 products to meet market demand outside of server/workstation/desktop (notably, consoles and mobile).TBH, I think they took this long because they saw the mobile market exploding in growth due to the pandemic and people buying up laptops. I still can't find laptops I want without being placed on a long waiting list or having an order canceled. I'm not sure what the 2021 outlook is in regards to COVID, but it isn't looking bright thus far.
Plus all the GPU uArch, console and PC SoC development.Well they have had Zen2, 3, and 4 in development simultaneously, more-or-less. On a design level, I think they've managed their teams quite well.
Intel currently makes everybody else look like wizards.Honestly the efficiency of AMD and ARM in managing it all is pretty staggering.
'720p' is that some game I never heard of it.I'll take it you don't play in 720p that often?![]()
Depends how rough their drivers for RDNA2 are at this point.If they do a gaming benchmark compare do you think they will be using an big navi without listed spec to compare zen3 with intel?
I don’t know about him, but I haven’t played in 720P in a loooong time. Low resolution gaming should be a Intel meme at this point (360P 4 l1fe!!!111). 1440p is the sweet spot, and I personally game at 4K (since 2017).I'll take it you don't play in 720p that often?![]()
No, they scheduled it so that NVIDIA would be out of the news cycle. They had no idea NVIDIA would botch the launch.Depends how rough their drivers for RDNA2 are at this point.
They didn't schedule the RDNA2 date nearly 3 weeks after Zen3 for kicks I think.
nVidia rescheduled their 3070 launch so that reviewers wouldn't have time to cover the AMD event in detail since they will need to be testing the 3070 for their reviews. It is a pretty clever strategy. It manages to minimize the AMD reveal by reducing the initial coverage, and then replacing it in the news the very next day.No, they scheduled it so that NVIDIA would be out of the news cycle.

This is the CPU forum, but i will have to say I disagree. AMD’s “launch” is in mid-November. NVIDIA only delayed due to supply issues.nVidia rescheduled their 3070 launch so that reviewers wouldn't have time to cover the AMD event in detail since they will need to be testing the 3070 for their reviews.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was in the wrong thread. I think the supply issue is a part of it, but the timing is most definitely a case of killing 2 birds with 1 stone. It helps their supply while also hurting their prime competitor.This is the CPU forum, but i will have to say I disagree. AMD’s “launch” is in mid-November. NVIDIA only delayed due to supply issues.
Who wants that newfangled widescreen crap that just bottlenecks the GPU when you can run your games at 240p as God and King intended?I'll take it you don't play in 720p that often?![]()
19% IPC!By the way, AMD promised no numbers and they could lie, but anyone dares to think that everything went better than expected again (with all these changes to the caches)? With the actual chip surpassing AMD initial expectations of performance?
Could the lightning strike again?
4.8GHz with higher perf/clock is sane compared to 5.3GHz.But the clocks are disappointing, only 100MHz?
Surely we can expect a refresh next year, right?
