In engineering and industry it most definitely is not. In academia, yeah sure it is quite niche but as a part-time academic myself, who cares about them. Yes I am sure that's how they think. It only cost them the professional market but yes bigger fish to fry. Not only is it difficult to...

Yep and getting them up and running on anything that isn't Nvidia is either (1) a pain, or (2) not possible. Arc has made good progress but still firmly in the painful category. We've trained and deployed models using Matlab (engineers already know Matlab) for a few years now and neither...

I still have the Serpent Canton NUC with the 16GB A770M. Have been using it a lot lately with Stable Diffusion where the VRAM comes in handy. Work sharing with the Xe iGPU on the 12700H in Adobe Premiere Pro (Deep Link Hyper Encode) also has always seemed to work. If MathWorks were to add Arc...

Fired it up on the Series X as it hasn't got much use lately. Going back to 30fps is jarring but it is kinda fun to play. Very unpolished though and the animations in particular can be shockingly bad. Worth the download if you get it free through Game Pass.

I absolutely hate the idea of MS using hundreds of billions they earned elsewhere to buy up companies in another industry. It irks me that instead of trying to grow organically they have decided to use their size to money hat their way to the top. More importantly though, MS have completely...

Also nice in-depth analysis by chips and cheese. Summary of the article from the AT forums: @Cyan: Yes I thought it was odd that it was mostly OK and then bam! Nothing working.

I was hunting for a NUC for a home file and media server and ended up with this. Pricier than the smaller NUCs but was also keen to try Arc so thought why not, plus can use it to beam games around the house via Steam. It has a 16GB 770M (full G10 die as used in the 770 LE but is TDP restricted)...

I couldn't finish it either. Terrible analysis as usual. They should stick to data-driven reviews.

Hold on, why are we all of a sudden suggesting FSR uses ML? There is quite literally zero evidence or mention of ML, outside of a 2 year old patent (which means almost nothing).

A selection of gaming press articles that say differently doesn't prove your point. Other press, and posters on technical forums, were not impressed. DLSS 1.9 and 2.0 were Nvidia's response to the general shared disappoint in 1.0. Good grief :lol: Our recollections clearly differ greatly.

The skepticism (I was one of them) was hardly undeserved. AMD were only doing a little better than treading water for far too long in the GPU space, and there have been far too many situations were AMD products were overhyped only to end up disappointing everyone. They've now earned themselves...

Geez there is way to much emotion in some of these posts. 3The RTX 3 is only true when no INT execution is happening anywhere on any SM (otherwise FP32 throughput for that SM is halved). Yes, you can say you are just quoting Nvidia's marketing numbers, but if you're actually interested in...

$50-100 extra seems pretty optimistic for double the GDDR6. In the past, in my location at least, double VRAM cards have commanded ridiculous premiums and I've always felt they were purely there to trick/gouge consumers who don't understand exactly how much they need.

Their results are absolutely baffling. In what world is a GTX 1060 even remotely comparable to a PS5?

I think you want Nsight graphics, not Night compute.
