    I gotta ask - why are PS2 ports still a thing on motherboards in 2020?

    PS2 -> USB adapters exist, no device I've bought in the past 10 years has come with PS2, surely an extra USB port or two would be more useful. They got rid of the DVI/VGA ports on Mobo - why not the PS2?

    Honest Question: CPU vs GPU Cost/Die size

    Posted: 06 Jul 2020 02:13 AM PDT

    It's something that kind of i've always wanted to know the answer to.

    It appears an intel 9900K is 177mm2 and a GTX 1660ti is 284mm2 .. Barring the differences in process node density, why does a relatively small die size CPU cost almost double over a full mainboard of GPU die + memory chips +power delivery + fans.

    Bonus question. Can a cpu of same die size provide a decent compute performance vs a gpu?

    I understand CPU scalar is more versatile than GPU which is more versatile than SIMD(AVX) but CPUs are to my knowledge decently competitive for double precision performance for example. What stops an AMD Threadripper 32Core from competing in price with a 2080ti (surprisingly , 2080ti is considered expensive while threadripper is good value while so much expensive )?

    Why do we Have Renoir 8c 150mm2 and still consider it amazing but not a 16c 250mm2 Renoir for half the price of a 3950x?

    I'm just curious.
