    How does AMD and NVIDIA keep coming up with 30-50% improvements per generation?

    Posted: 24 Nov 2020 06:52 PM PST

    Explain it to me like I took intro to digital logic. Is it that they are making breakthroughs in efficient chip design every generation? Are they waiting for processes and technologies to cheapen enough that it's economical to mass produce? What are they changing in the actual chip to make it significantly faster every generation?

    It seems like the improvement per generation of gpu is much higher than for cpu. We never see a generational improvement of 50% from one cpu to the next these days. Is it just easier to speed up parallel computing?

    Also how close are we to the maximum limit of silicon? Are we close to extracting as much computation out of a piece of silicon as possible, or is there much more to explore there?

    A review of this highly affordable EVGA PSU exposes a possible design flaw since the PSU died with 110% load at 40 degrees Celsius, a load level that most PSUs can handle without any problems.

    Hdmi 2.1 bandwidth for RDNA 2

    Posted: 24 Nov 2020 01:04 PM PST

    Has there been an official response from AMD whether the HDMI 2.1 on RDNA 2 has the full 48gbps bandwidth? I am planning on buying one of the new HDMI 2.1 monitors next year and had been leaning towards a 6900xt but I want to be able to utilize the full bandwidth of the monitor.

    When do you see fully path traces games ever becoming a viable thing?

    Posted: 25 Nov 2020 12:41 AM PST

    By viable I mean console would have to have it for mass adoption. Maybe 2035?

    Theoritically, how much transisitor can GPU get before it hits a deminishing return that performance gain is not relevant?

    Posted: 24 Nov 2020 08:41 PM PST

    Lets say we can make a 50000 core GPU, and keep adding more. At what point will the parallel scaling no longer matter?
