    nVidia GeForce RTX 3070 Meta Review: FullHD, WQHD & 4K benchmarks compiled

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 09:43 AM PST

    • compilation of 13 launch reviews with ~4420 gaming benchmarks
    • only benchmarks under real games compiled, not included any 3DMark & Unigine benchmarks
    • geometric mean in all cases
    • stock performance on reference/FE boards, no overclocking
    • performance average is (moderate) weighted in favor of reviews with more benchmarks and more tested GPUs
    • missing results were interpolated for the average based on the available results
    • energy efficiency and price-performance ratio based on the 4k performance
    • note: the following tables are very broad, the last column should show you the GeForce RTX 3090

    Why don't we have x86 CPUs on a pcie card?

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 04:52 AM PST

    Assuming your workload needs a CPU, why can't I just buy 6 pcie cards each with e.g. 2 sockets, pack them with off the shelf CPUs and RAM and stuff everything into 1 motherboard? Why do I need a whole new server - why can't we just add CPUs like we add GPUs?

    Perhaps the latency wouldn't be the lowest but there are workloads that don't need to communicate with all CPUs all the time (as is e.g. the case with GPU workloads).

    Or add a network port and have a whole computer on a pcie card.

    Effect of memory bandwidth and memory compression on VRAM usage

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 09:07 AM PST

    Hey!

    So there are lots of discussions online about whether the 10/8GB of VRAM that the 3080/3070 has is enough. There are two things that I read about in regards to the Ampere cards, and I wanted to ask you guys if you think they have an effect on the VRAM usage of these cards.

    The first one is memory bandwidth. Now the way I understand it is that bandwidth helps the graphics card move data in and out of memory faster. The way that it could reduce VRAM usage is that less data is loaded into the VRAM at the same time, since the card has enough bandwidth to remove data that isn't being used quickly. Every scene in the game is different, the GPU has to do this constantly, and I think it's possible that it if the GPU doesn't have enough bandwidth then if it wants to load new data into the memory, it can't because it couldn't delete unused data fast enough. So if what I said is correct, then while the 3080 only has 10GB of VRAM it's possible that has to use less of it then it would have to if it had slower memory. The 3070 sadly only uses GDDR6 and only has a 256 bit bus so this might be less relevant there.

    The second one is something I know very little about and peaple rarely talk about this (even Nvidia), so this might not be that relevant, but Nvidia claims on their website that it uses "new memory compression techniques". So the way I understand this is compression means ways to reduce file size, which would logically follow then that if Ampere's memory compression is superior then previous generations then when it loads the same textures into it's VRAM as a previous GPU it takes up less space without losing any quality. This could also help the 3070 and lower tier cards. Now this is just my logic from what I know about data compression which is very little, so that's why I'm asking you guys.

    Long story short, if I'm correct does that mean that you can't directly compare the 10GB of VRAM on the 3080 to previous generations because they had lower memory bandwidth and less advanced memory compression? Or am I completely wrong here?

    WD Black AN1500 2TB AIC SSD Review - KitGuru

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 04:13 AM PST

    Why are CPUs and GPUs glossy silver, and memory always matte black?

    Posted: 03 Nov 2020 03:17 AM PST

    Aren't they both made of silicon? Is it because of different surface flatness?

    Edit: I think I need to clarify, i mean the actual dies, not the IHS.
