So they made a 40 CU part to compete at the high end with a small die? Yeah... No. Whether or not they tried to scale it up and it didn't work is not an argument of whether the 5700xt was a good card or not. The 5700xt was not meant to compete...

I've done this before, I just unsolder the wires and solder back in only the ones I need... if you're really bored you can even shorten them up if they are to long. I've even changed out connectors when I didn't have enough of the right kind...

Best part:

I was going to say, I'm surprised it even booted! I don't have an answer, just listening in. Did you try installing ryzen master to see if it's possible through there? I just don't know since it's not claimed support anyways.

So in other words, price performance was at the heart of the decision even though you said it wasn't. Realistically, it's at the heart of EVERYONE'S decision. Everyone makes the determination of what price they want to spend for the...

+2% with a 5.3ghz boost frequency... What's this say about the purported IPC increase? I really expected Intel to start swinging back again by now, seems it'll be another year at least.

Well, MS hasn't abandoned WinForms nor VB.Net. If you were using a MVVM pattern before (even more so if you were strictly using XAML for UI), then the choice (WinForms, WPF, etc.) really only affects the presentation (UI) layer. Under the hood...

DLSS does not look better than native in any of the titles I've used it in, closest is Control but Native still beats dlss, maybe in young blood (I haven't played). i'll take TAA over DLSS anyday, I cannot stand the graphical glitching DLSS...

I agree that AMD has had a problem with overpromising and underdelivering with GPUs, but I don't think that was the case at all with Navi. 5700XT wasn't a flagship card. AMD never presented it as their flagship card. If they had, it would have...

It would have been accurate to say AMD did not target the high end, this I agree with. They failed to target/compete with the high end of Nvidia. It is not fair to say a $400 card did not complete with an $800 card, they obviously weren't...

I didn't actually. Maybe you're thinking of someone else? This I agree with, and it's something Intel has a problem with currently (and will until Alder Lake is released.) This ranges from debatable to outright FUD.

You brought up the fact that "Intel just clocks higher", that AMD has better IPC. That's why I responded with AMD would clock higher if they could, because they cannot. Should I underclock my Intel rig for some reason, just because AMD can't...

Given all else the same, transistor size will affect maximum frequency and efficiency, but it doesn't really affect instructions PER CLOCK or IPC.

It didn't fail to compete against high end Nvidia cards, that's like saying the 1060 failed to compete at the high end. That's a misleading argument, it was never intended to compete against the high end, it's price point supports this. That...

I'm not sure how much good that would do them right now. TSMC is so backlogged anything they might be able to produce for Intel would be a tiny trickle of products. This unprecedented supply shortage is the only reason Intel hasn't lost even more...

Good luck getting even one answered straight.

The only "supposed attempt" to date is the Ryzen CPU line... and it seems perfectly fine to me. MCM hasn't been done on GPU's, the only thing done on GPU's where literally 2 GPU's slapped onto one circuit board. They weren't really integrated...

I'm sure it'll be just the way it's done now... they have multiple CU's on a single GPU with some method of handing out instructions on what to do for each one. If the CU's are spread on a single die or multiple, it's still the same concept...

I've got an EVGA model with eco mode... Annoying as crap as it sits at zero RPM and intermittently turns on and off. I'd rather if it just sat at a really low rpm and didn't cycle. Seems more of a gimmick than a useful feature. It does this...

I mean, if performance is within a few percentage points and I can choose between 88watts and 200+watts (3700x vs 10700k), I will take the lower power one. Less fans, less cooling required, less heat in my room. If the 10700k was substantially...
