>So Vega is achieving 43% more hash rate with a meager 13% increase in power consumption
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*inhale*
BWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
give up gaming already
AMD making bank and gaymers on suicide watch. Does life get any better?
China just banned cryptocurrencies. It's over for AMD.
>China just banned cryptocurrencie
what
how can they ban digital currency.
are they conducting raids on mining houses?
lmao
>child labor
>thisisfine
>digital currency
>FUCKING NOPE RAID RAID PRISON4LIEF
AMD is still losing money on these cards, the only people who should be happy about Vega are miners and Nvidia. What a fucking mess.
No idiot, they banned icos, not the same thing.
Destabilizes the Yuan. The commies still left in power there will kill you for destabilizing their currency.
They are fucking stupid I swear, I feel ashamed to have a Ryzen and R9 280x
Fire Raja.
Just make it illegal for any institution to exchange it for fiat currency and for any business to except it as payment for goods and services. That would effectively ban it.
>AMD is still losing money on these cards
t. Currytech "sources"
yes exactly true user because we all know a rumor out of another rumor that is proven to be lies its literally what amd is doing
china sub every miner that uses solar or wind farms in exchange for coins
CHINA BANS CRYPTOS
the state of anons
Rejoice!
With the ETH crash we will hopefully see aftermarket cards for cheap
Just gonna leave this here...
If GPUs are so good at calculations then why don't they just make the CPUs from GPUs?
Because they're not. See GPU video encoding.
so did anyone ever figure out why it was performing so well in dirt?
No AA. Something is bottlenecking AA performance, something having to do with the low geometry output of the shaders.
Not sure if it can be fixed by drivers though...
>Because they're not
What did he mean by this?
is that really all there is to it?
does it work better without AA in other games too?
wouldn't enabling the primitive shader thingy solve this then?
Because they can't do the same advance math as CPUs can.
ye
GPUs are only better than CPUs at certain types of maths since they are particularly designed for those types, but are trash for any other type.
I wish someone would come up with an easy way to benchmark games. Fraps method is shit. Intel method is shit. There are a handful of games that have built in benchmarks but can't really be trusted.
>Making Bank.
They aren't, in fact, they're losing bank.
>Gaymers on suicide watch.
No, they'd just buy Nvidia as they always did. How does this benefit AMD or you as a consumer? Or are you just playing teams?
