I like windows tbh. I use linux extensively for servers and all sorts of things but windows desktop works pretty well for me. it's not flawless of course but it's decent. I'd use windows on ARM once things are sorted. I'm not interested in beta testing it for MS and Qualcomm though...

my issue is for indy or small devs it's just an added expense.

That's what I was thinking too. It's more than I'd spend on one. You might as well just get a laptop.

If that's what it is they should have just said that. it's an unprofessional mistake and honestly where is the QA on that... but it's nowhere near as bad as what intel has going on.

well hopefully that's true. because my understanding is the tsmc iphone chips were better and the tmsc nvidia chips were better when compared apples to apples. but it's been a few years, hopefully samsung (and intel) will be competitive.

fast enough for basic office work. not very exciting but nothing wrong with that.

it wasn't when the card was first released and I was interested in it. I just tried to download pytorch (right now) for windows with rocm and it's linux only. cuda works for both. but seeing rocm listed as an official option is a big win, so that's something. I also just looked up llama 3...

I've bought alot of amd gpu's over the years and I kinda dislike nvidia as a company - so I should be a potential customer. There were some early recalls on the 7900xtx cooling when it was first released. Scare #1. Then I heard there were issues with clocks if you used multiple 4k monitors...

what if 40 tops is not be enough for future versions and then it'll run in the cloud anyways or they'll be stuck.

Agreed, they could make it easier (not just move it all to the back) without much effort.. They also didn't use the idea that Asus is floating around of not using the big external graphics card power connectors but having essentially another pci-e1 type connector for power. That build would...

I had an 8500 and it was fine. not sure what you're talking about. There were some driver issues for sure but it was pretty fast at the time. Only AMD card I hated was the HD2900XT I bought. Too hot, too loud, not fast enough. I did bios editing to help but eventually moved onto something...

I installed windows 11 on a couple machines and other than wsl2 & hyper-v being better I've found most other things are the same or in the case of the taskbar and right click menu substantially worse. There's a registry setting to get the right click menu back but the taskbar isn't great. It's...

I think because we're talking about a large external cache intel has a good shot an the initial implementation being as good or better than AMDs. Intel has lots of experience with different caches and layouts. We'll see of course

I'm not convinced yet ray tracing is a killer app/must have feature... but DLSS 3.5 seems like a decent upgrade to me if you're using ray tracing. If it's not slower (might even be faster) and looks a bit better, seems like a win.
