    Switch 2 Speculation

    Orin's 8 SMs per GPC, 32 ROPs because with Ampere I believe they made it 16 ROPs per GPC and I'm assuming it's the same with Orin. Maybe it's a bit more custom I'm assuming it's not https://www.nvidia.com/content/dam/en-zz/Solutions/gtcf21/jetson-orin/nvidia-jetson-agx-orin-technical-brief.pdf

    Switch 2 Speculation

    Think that's mostly the general consensus but it's 2 GPCs and so 32 ROPs. Frequency I have a feeling it's going to be lower than what a lot of people expect like the Switch's clocks were for power and thermal reasons. I'd be pleasantly surprised if it's >1000MHz docked, I'm in the 900 <= x...

    Machine Learning: WinML/DirectML, CoreML & all things ML

    I know it's quite an obvious thought but it's cool to see it come to fruition thanks to that video (1:38 on)

    Machine Learning: WinML/DirectML, CoreML & all things ML

    They're not doing training on the PS5, they're using the already trained model and accelerating that with the new hardware on the PS5 pro. Same thing with DLSS and XeSS - the hard work getting all the data and training is done behind the scenes, then the games use that trained model and the end...

    Machine Learning: WinML/DirectML, CoreML & all things ML

    In absolute terms it's not a world beater but given the general constraints and value of the package as a whole it's impressive However there are some asterisks here - the FP16/FP32 numbers are doubled with dual issue and I don't know how widespread or useful that is, maybe it's easy to do and...

    AMD CDNA: MI300 & MI400 (Analysis, Speculation and Rumors in 2024)

    Couple things looking over the whitepaper again, they doubled the vector (CU) FP32 rate? Now the same as matrix FP32/64 rates, after last gen going full rate FP64. They don't specifically say what changed but this is as close as it gets, more VOPD shenanigans? Don't think I've seen it mentioned...

    RDNA4

    To my knowledge the latest thing we have is AMD's roadmap from mid 2022: https://images.anandtech.com/doci/17443/2022-06-09%2013_39_26.jpg https://www.anandtech.com/show/17443/amds-client-gpu-roadmap-rdna-3-this-year-rdna-4-lands-in-2024 Releases are generally around 18-24 months. Vega was...

    Switch 2 Speculation

    General social factors like knowing other people that have one and general positive public sentiment are under appreciated imo. Have friends that have one, they're enjoying it, you've given it a go and enjoy it too? You want one, you tell others about how good they are etc, natural marketing for...

    The Intel Execution in [2024]

    Intel are open and willing to make chips for anyone and everyone https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-i-hope-to-build-chips-for-lisa-su-and-amd Would be very interesting to see how this turns out in 5 years time and how many would take up the potential...

    Speculation and Rumors: Nvidia Blackwell ...

    Quick comparison: AD107 - 24SM, 128 bit | +4 SM, +17% AD106 - 36 SM, 128 bit | +8 SM, +22% AD104 - 60SM, 192 bit | +12 SM, +20% AD103 - 80 SM, 256 bit | +28 SM, +35% AD102 - 144SM, 384 bit | +48 SM, +33% They seem like reasonable guesstimates at first glance

    Switch 2 Speculation

    No idea if it's true but that would be a very Nintendo thing to do. Have slightly lower costs at launch and a "free" way to create hype for a mid-gen refresh which a good number of people will buy again which Nintendo have a history of doing. If it is an 8" screen and has small phone-like bezels...
