The PS5 uses a custom RDNA core that is a mix of RDNA 1&2, but its closer to RDNA 1. Its ROPs are of the RDNA 1 design. aside from that RDNA 1 and 2 CUs are nearly identical, simply on different lithographies to allow higher clocks. This can be seen when normalizing RX5700XT vs RX6700XT clock...

Thats a false equivalent. Even if it wasn't, the original statement is plenty non-offensive. Humor is allowed to make a mild joke towards a troubled populous. You don't see Dyslexics getting up in arms about all the factually inaccurate dyslexic jokes. -Someone whos dyslexic and whos immediate...

Who would have though dividing your bandwidth into a quarter would limit performance. Oh wait, everyone.

Interesting take, would be true if it wasn't just a Chinese engineer shooting them selves in the foot to do get around the problem, which inherently makes an inferior product. Intels 14nm density is still top of the pack, and by a lot, no Chinese CCP magic will change that.

only when the other markets are free and open. China might be opening up, but its still a command economy where the Government can directly interfere with little regard for normal and fair market practices. The Yuan is a perfect example, it is forces a arbitrary exchange rate that doesn't...

Thats a very surface level view of it. Chinese government has more direct involvement with non-state own enterprises than any westerner would consider separate. They have been known to directly take things in raids from western companies foolish enough to do business there. Qualcomm is a notable...

My Big issue is that the HD 7850 doesn't start at $190, they can be found on Newegg for $150 or lower.
