    NVIDIA will no longer be sending Hardware Unboxed review samples due to focus on rasterization vs raytracing

    Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:49 PM PST

    Nvidia have officially decided to ban us from receiving GeForce Founders Edition GPU review samples

    Their reasoning is that we are focusing on rasterization instead of ray tracing.

    They have said they will revisit this "should your editorial direction change".

    This is a quote from the email they sent today "It is very clear from your community commentary that you do not see things the same way that we, gamers, and the rest of the industry do."

    Are we out of touch with gamers or are they? https://twitter.com/HardwareUnboxed/status/1337248420671545344

    Does Samsung A-Die actually exist?

    Posted: 10 Dec 2020 07:36 PM PST

    This might be a stupid question, and maybe I've not researched this properly, but I've looked for info on Samsung A-Die, yet all I see are articles from about a year ago. Was it just rumours and speculation, or are these actually a thing?

    Do you think Intel and/or AMD will go 4-way SMT eventually (like IBM)?

    Posted: 11 Dec 2020 12:24 AM PST

    Do you think AMD/Intel will try this route instead of pure core count increases?

    Well done article from Anandtech about IBM's SMT scaling: https://www.anandtech.com/show/10435/assessing-ibms-power8-part-1/4

    Last page quote:

    The POWER8 microarchitecture is clearly built to run at least two threads. On average, two threads gives a massive 43% performance boost, with further peaks of up to 84%. This is in sharp contrast with Intel's SMT, which delivers a 18% performance boost with peaks of up to 32%. Taken further, SMT-4 on the POWER8 chip outright doubles its performance compared to single threaded situations in many of the SPEC CPU subtests.

    All in all, the maximum throughput of one POWER8 core is about 43% faster than a similar Broadwell-based Xeon E5 v4. Considering that using more cores hardly ever results in perfect scaling, a POWER8 CPU should be able to keep up with a Xeon with 40 to 60% more cores.
