InnoSilicon launches Fantasy 1 Type A and Type B graphics cards
- Thread starter Davros
- Start date
Shouldn't videocardz.com know the difference between an Immediate Mode Renderer and a Tile-Based Deferred Renderer with regards to needed memory bandwidth?
304 GB/s seems like total overkill for an TBDR graphic card unless it's meant for compute.
Perhaps it's time we saw a return of Kryo on desktop now that Apple is finally shipping GPUs with 16 and 32 cores.

They likely don't have official WDDM driver certification so they may very well be borrowing 3rd party translation layers but I imagine they made some modifications to their closed source fork. Direct3D translation layers developed by Valve are only extensively tested on AMD and NV HW so Intel and other vendors often get the short end of the stick in this case. Chances are they applied some optimizations or workaround to make them work better for their HW ...
I wonder how much better they can do vs MoltenVK since latter easily performs the worst ...
Had a good friend with the Kyro 2 and it seemed good, back in the day anyway. I'm in for updates as well

Ok. Having good working drivers for windows/DX (if it's happening) would be a very big step if they want to have another go at gaming pcs market, by themselves or with a partner like Ino.
Dumb questions:
1. Does this mean a new competitor in the discrete GPU market?
2. Can anyone guess at what level these cards will game? What kind of cards could I compare them to?
3. How the hell did I miss this thread?!?

- No idea, it's not on the market yet and no-one knows how many will be available for sale or even if it'll be available for sale outside of China.
- No idea, there's pretty much no performance information available.
- Press weren't allowed to see and weren't given any performance data for games that were demonstrated as running on the cards.
- Performance is reliant on the driver stack as well as the hardware. And both, especially the drivers, are likely in a very immature state at the moment.
- It's a new thread.

I have the power of PowerVR in my fabulous Teclast T8 tablet with Mediatek MT8176 and PowerVR GX6250. Something like Tegra 4 level. Looks a ton better with the ubiquitous Unity games than the Tegra K1/X1 because those have some kind of compatibility problem with I guess some 16-bit format used by mobile games that needs dithering but NVidia stopped supporting after Tegra 4.
But...anyway. It will be interesting to see if they become a PC thing of some sort again. I think the last examples were some Intel GMA IGPs that were actually PowerVR tech, and those had significant driver problems. Probably a lack of effort from all parties.

In fairness to those people you are crazy.

Well that is true. But I try not to lie about things i've seen. I just have to be very vague sometimes
