Architecture and Products - Subforum Guidelines

[Rys]

Allowed thread topics​

• Pre-release microarchitecture and product speculation
• Post-release product review roundups
• Post-release microarchitecture, chip and product spec discussions
• Microarchitecture performance analysis and analysis tool development
• Product performance analysis
• Physical design and related areas (manufacturing, packaging, etc) for GPU ASICs and GPU-based products
• Pre-release rumour roundups

Disallowed thread topics​

• Graphics techniques and APIs (Rendering Technology and APIs subforum for those), unless it's about the underlying microarchitectural and/or driver + compiler details
• Anything cryptomining related
• Anything related to business performance, sales, marketing, etc (Graphics and Semiconductor Industry for those)

Cross-vendor discussion​

Heavily moderated now. Any post comparing one vendor to another has to be as technical, in-depth, respectful, curious, thoughtful and substantive as possible. Posts can't be repetitive, can't be a pile on, can't be high-level. Either they dig in to something technically substantial in a good way and continue the discussion or they will likely be removed.

General forum guidelines​

All of the other general forum guidelines apply.
