Three Questions. Can DP 1.4 even support 500Hz? If so at what resolution? Also, can the human eye actually see any improvement over say 400Hz.

Your just saying that because most people won't use it or don't need it, and those that do will certainly be using a dedicated GPU with 50 times more performance, instead. But you see, most people and professionals isn't Intels market for this chip. Honestly, I'm not actually sure what...

Yes, but it's even worse then that, heat is generated as proportional to the square of the current. So if you double the current you increase the heat by 4 times.

It says including the campus, R&D and training, among other things. Apple already spends $30 billion just on R&D, so over 4 years that would $120 billion right there. If they increase spending then obviously that number will be higher.

AI is good for boiler plate and specific repetitive tasks like database API's but using it for complex tasks is like adding a bloated sieve to your code.

Yeah, that 10 percent is mostly made up of porn and politically motivated bots. It is the future but currently it's not that useful outside a handful of niche applications.

Well, 1 Blackwell GPU can consume 1kw of electricity. So 1.2 million is 1.2gw. This is more than one of Diablo Canyon full size nuclear reactors or roughly 5 percent of the entire state of California's power grid.

Yeah, I agree. I'm just waiting for the industry to start using negative numbers. It's about as meaningless as any current naming scheme.

Yeah, I tend to agree except possibly for different reasons. China is still able to get high end kit from back channels and black markets for their important projects. This site had an article dated January 28th about a smuggling operation trying to import 53,000 chips in violation of...

It's apple. People will buy it. I've seen some honest and less than honest reviews of the product. It seems conclusive, it is an impressive device, but currently is pretty limited as far as functionality. If I end up purchasing it, I'm waiting for version 3.11. They still have bugs to work...

Some developer really liked the Batman Tv show is all I can think of.

I'm sure his assistants and handlers wear watches. Of course everyone has a phone on them that has the time but I'm sure I'm missing the point.

This keyboard is actually pretty great. Do to a unrelated injury, I have wrist/hand issues when typing for long periods and this keyboard essentially solved them. Although, much of this can be attributed moving most of the pinky reaching to the thumb keys. If the price is to high or you...

So basically an entirely different chip then the one announced in 2018. Not holding my breath on this one.

That's a fair question. I just read a NY times and MIT article where AI is expected to exceed AC units as the largest single source requiring as much as 21 percent of the grid by 2030, which would likely be higher that projected EV consumption as well. Google AI/data centers already use more...
