"Portable" PCs playing the same games. You can play Red Dead Redemption 1 on a Switch Lite for $199 or on a Alloy X for $799. My point...

Switch 2 will be playing new games just fine. And it has a docking station for "console" like gaming. It is the same market. So AMD is...

Its the same market. I looked up how the Alloy X performs with the Silent mode (APU at 12W) and the GPU clock rate falls down to...

Nobody is buying a Ally 2 over a Switch 2. A Switch 2 will provide the same handheld experience with lower power consumption and a much...

Maybe they designing a product with their homeland in mind? Dragon Quest sold nearly 1 million physical copies in Japan. The world...

But this would mean that more transistors are more inefficient than just higher clock rates. And this is not really true. The wider chip...

"Same performance" in this context is power consumption. A narrow chip needs higher clocks. This will always increase the power...

Power consumption scales linear with clock rates. Even at the same voltage step a reduced clock rate will reduce the power consumption.

You are right. My mistake.

Samsung's 8nm process was the last competitive with TSMC. Transistor efficiency was nearly the same, just density was only 1/3 of 7nm...

Na, you cant compare Orin to a gaming SoC. Series S on TSMC's 7nm has 8 billion transistors with a die size of 197mm^2. Samsung's 8nm...

Larger die, lower clock rates. Best way to improve efficiency. This is the reason why 8nm makes sense. 8nm is so much cheaper than any...

600Mhz in docked mode is enough to match the compute performance of the base PS4. And leaks point to a fan in the docking station. So i...

But it was so important for nVidia and AMD that they cheated their way to the top of the charts...

Thx, fixed it. I looked up other SoCs. One X is 367mm^2 with 6.6b transistors on 16nmn FF and Series X is 360mm^2 with 15.3b...
