OpenSSL was running in 1-core mode, not sure but you could probably set it to more cores?

2016-08-08 14:58:09 UTC  

I am home my dudes

2016-08-08 14:58:12 UTC  

It's no secret that amds single threading capabilities are severely limited.

2016-08-08 14:59:40 UTC  

But until you get to i7s and xeons. You can typically get better performance for the same price (or less) by going with amd. Just the heat man.

2016-08-08 14:59:45 UTC  

However, for my HTPC, I am looking forwards to when AMD releases a new APU in 2017 which uses Zen+Polaris?

2016-08-08 15:01:08 UTC  

Might be a longer wait than that. The newest apus will still be excavator from what I understood. And I'm sure Microsoft will pay out the ass for exclusivity to the scropio apu.

2016-08-08 15:01:12 UTC  

Yeah I must admit that, price/performance was the reason gamers bought cheap AMDs

2016-08-08 15:01:39 UTC  

I think they'll have p11 chips though.

2016-08-08 15:01:40 UTC  

ok 2018?

2016-08-08 15:02:02 UTC  

its actually no problem, I'm not moving to a place where I can have a HTPC before this time next year

2016-08-08 15:02:40 UTC  

Ah yeah

2016-08-08 15:04:24 UTC  

Haha, you could build a little am1 platform. Get the Asus mobo and you can over clock. Seen a lot of videos of people running games on it with low end dedicated gpus.

2016-08-08 15:04:54 UTC  

I can, however, understand if AMD wants to give Microsoft a sweet APU (and Playstation?) while skipping out with desktop for later

2016-08-08 15:05:06 UTC  

Since they are making them probably an important income

2016-08-08 15:05:19 UTC  

And pushing these APUs to desktops might be bad for consoles?

2016-08-08 15:05:42 UTC  

Or well the APU users are a minority to care about

2016-08-08 15:06:05 UTC  

The ps4k is still running cat cores. They just gave it a higher clock. The Scorpio is going to run full zen / Polaris.

2016-08-08 15:06:05 UTC  

My previous HTPC is in fact my old laptop, recycled, but I want a proper one later. Besides, it's at the brink of dying.

2016-08-08 15:06:20 UTC  

Yeah, that's the APU that would be nice to have.

2016-08-08 15:07:21 UTC  

Just the fact Microsoft wrote >6 TFLOPs

2016-08-08 15:07:24 UTC  

If Microsoft is to be believed, it'll be a Polaris 10 chip, since they were boasting 6 tflops. Zen supposedly has on board hbm controllers as well.

2016-08-08 15:07:30 UTC  

Make me think that there might come ot some killer APUs yeah

2016-08-08 15:07:46 UTC  

I wonder, will console gaming finally be a thing?

2016-08-08 15:07:53 UTC  

With this they must surely manage to handle 1080p60fps

2016-08-08 15:08:22 UTC  

They've had ddr4 controllers since the merlin development kit which was.. Steamroller firepro.

2016-08-08 15:10:01 UTC  

They'd have to be able to handle 1080p60fps if the performance is where they claim. Low level api combined with async compute.

2016-08-08 15:11:30 UTC  

Has anyone done any actual memory bandwidth tests on Polaris? I know I'd seen some figures showing that the 290x wasn't able to fully saturate it's bus despite not even having memory compression.

2016-08-08 15:12:45 UTC  

I suppose I should get back to work though. Break ended a while ago.

2016-08-08 15:13:02 UTC  

Yeah, you should.

2016-08-08 15:13:09 UTC  

Won't know before we see these come

2016-08-08 15:14:50 UTC  

How is this Kimovil website?

2016-08-08 15:15:02 UTC  

It's just suddenly come up in the threads and I'm wondering if it's being shilled.

2016-08-08 15:16:24 UTC  

be careful

2016-08-08 15:16:39 UTC  

Even your social media is udner manipulation from shills

2016-08-08 15:16:47 UTC  

You should be as distrustful as possible on the internet

2016-08-08 15:18:32 UTC  

Had to chime in one last time. There are posts all over Craigslist of companies wanting to rent Facebook accounts for advertising. Can confirm social media shilling.

2016-08-08 15:23:32 UTC  

Good news everyone!

2016-08-08 15:23:50 UTC

Yes, we have the item -- Gentle Typhoon GT2150 in stock.
A photo is attached for reference.

What quantity do you require ?

Looking forward to you reply

Sincerely

2016-08-08 15:24:07 UTC  

fuck those brown Noctua

2016-08-08 15:24:19 UTC  

the GT is where it's at
