I mean, it runs everything I need. But what is mainstream gaming to everyone else? Is it fortnite? Call of duty? Destiny 2? Pubg? Valorant? GTA? Battlefield? (weirdly a lot of shooters), Apex? Siege?
May not matter to people like us but they each command something to the effect of hundreds of thousands of concurrent players. Capable as Linux distros are for gaming (truly the best way to experience classic games) the anticheat situation is no less dire.
Idle power is determined by your display setup. Is your friend a comparable arrangement to yours? Do you run a couple high res high refresh rate displays?
I’m a little surprised you’re reaching the same idle draw as vega10 given its use of HBM2. Also worth noting that everything prior to RDNA 3 showed TGP instead of TBP. This was particularly annoying as it didn’t account for other board power losses (like VRM), and didn’t give monitoring software an accurate read :/
You absolutely could. Adrenalin on Windows has a fairly easy way to get close enough to 220W TBP as an upper limit (negative offest is at most 30%, may depend slightly on partner model voltage properties). Following up on the sysfs interface for Linux.
For perf deficits in rtrt with heavier effects (reflections, GI, AO), you may find some luck in leveraging AMDVLK instead of RADV. I don’t doubt the latter will catch up in good time.
nv48xtx was originally designed to run at 220 Watts. I wonder if any reviewer would be interested in benching the xt at that power envelope, I’d be willing to wager it’d fare very well in terms of perf/watt there.
It is interesting to see how it scales over 100 watts beyond that, however.
But how will he say gamer words whilst playing pubg?

It’s practically the same size as the regular iphone 16. Weren’t these originally supposed to be more compact?
I can appreciate following the creators intent and gave this a legit crack around when Gnome 40 first released. I fell back to using a DtP because I found it frustrating to not be able to see the main panel clock on my secondary displays when I have something open in full screen on the primary. My Mac and windows systems will have this shown on all displays, I guess I just became accustomed to it.
I genuinely enjoy using gnome but there are situations like this which are massively disappointing to behold. I don’t feel bad making my own tweaks in light of their attitude towards assuming user behaviour without any sort of data to inform those decisions.
Ironically I don’t think kernel module AC was as big of an issue back then as it is now. It’s sad to see games like Battlefield, GTAO and Apex pull the rug out from under.
Yes these games are almost always bad, but they have huge audiences. If a traditional, stationary console can’t play them, I worry about how broad their appeal would be against incumbents.
I’m hoping valve can push back on this once more.
You’re not a fanboy of anything, I think you just bought what worked best for you at the time, and you should apply the same principal now. Yes nvidia do nvidia things, but if they’re the only company fulfilling your requirements (and if you’re in need of an upgrade right now), you shouldn’t limit them from your buying decisions. You may find a decent deal on last gen AMD and Nvidia GPUs.
RNDA4 will be available ‘early march’. There’s no solid confirmation on pricing save for what Frank blurted out on twitter that ~$900 was never part of the originally intended price range.
Back to you, do you have any specific requirements for the GPU outside of gaming (Gfx accelerated productivity and such)? Are you planning on using this with Windows or Linux (or both?)
Also die area,
Don’t take my word for it, but I gather the BMG G31 die has been shelved. I don’t think we’ll see larger battlemage dGPUs than B5XX released to market.
sick one
amazing! Appreciate the info
Great find, trying this out later. Does this use a disk buffer for instant replay or can you specify the use of system memory?
Suppose this alleviates the IHS height/thickness in some way for GNR-X. Expected it would eventually play out like this though it’s sad that RPL / HPT DT had to suffer.
god damn it really was that long ago.
