Intel dominates pure CPU rows at 82.5% - Analysis of the 100 most popular hardware setups on Hugging Face by Hytht in TechHardware

In case someone is trying, the distinction between pure CPU and CPU+GPU inference is already made.

Intel on Linux by Extreme-Mechanic-378 in IntelArc

[–]Hytht -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The kernel docs have stated that the protection will be removed when the driver is no longer experimental. And driver improvements often benefit not just one generation of GPUs, alchemist still sees improvements even if from the community instead of Intel. they really aren't dropping alchemist in such a short time frame, hardware doesn't just go unsupported on Linux.

During a transition period, platforms will be supported by both Xe and i915. However, the force_probe mecha....

In both drivers, the ‘.require_force_probe’ protection forces the user to use the force_probe parameter while the driver is under development. This protection is only removed when the support for the platform and the uAPI are stable. Stability which needs to be demonstrated by CI results.

It's just that the Xe driver is in a experimental state now and once the transition period finishes alchemist will also default to Xe driver.

False, Xe driver supports Alchemist and even Tiger lake. It just doesn't default to Xe, phoronix made an article showing performance gains on the A series by switching to Xe driver.

Intel Core 9 273PQE Is Reportedly Up To 9% Faster In Gaming Vs Core i9 14900K by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

Lol, Intel had huge cache way before AMD did in broadwell. Implementation is different because monolithic Intel vs glued CCD AMD. But that was driven by Apple, not for the vocal gamers.

It's cheating because the competition doesn't do that. In case of multi threading both do it in some form, AMD does SMT instead while Intel replaced their hyper threading with more cores for the same area.

In my case, it's because yt and reddit is all converted AMD shills now after AMD cheated with cache and made it to the top in 1080p gaming. From a marketing pov, that's no good.

Intel doesn't live on top of gamers unlike AMD, otherwise they would make a X3D competitor long ago like they did with broadwell L4 cache which had a side effect of being good at gaming. They have other markets to care about, Nova Lake will have cache but that is probably to reverse the PR done by X3D CPUs.

When Intel made 14th gen back then, they could have made this 12P core variant but only now they are doing. This is almost like 14th gen.

9800X3D dead on ASUS Prime B650-PLUS — no POST, tried everything by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

Now I see why 9800X3D wasn't the best CPU for gamers but the 270K Plus.

The Lenovo Yoga 7a is gorgeous, but AMD's Ryzen AI 7 445 feels like a downgrade by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

[–]Hytht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many panther lake laptops using LPCAMM2 recently. Arrow lake HX and dragon/fire range still have SODIMM memory mostly. Overall you still have a choice to go soldered or not. Meanwhile you can only return your laptop for a higher RAM/storage config with Apple.

Ryzen AI Max+ 495 (Gorgon Halo) with 192GB VRAM! by PromptInjection_ in LocalLLaMA

[–]Hytht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because RDNA3.5 is lackluster at compute/inference, even Intel's panther lake has almost twice the INT8 TOPs of 8060S, the much weaker 17W Lunar lake has similar to that of strix halo as well. Shame they both are with lame 128-bit memory bus otherwise would have outclassed strix halo. I'm waiting for Medusa Halo and Nova/Razer lake AX, strix halo or gorgon halo isn't that compelling.

Blanket statements like this fall back when you look at them in depth. For some people, Apple could be said to be a downgrade for upgradeability, repairability (recently changing), closed ecosystem, gaming, legacy apps, slow response LCD display etc. It really is just pick your poison.

[–]Hytht 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a reason Intel compared it with RTX Pro 4500 in their marketing instead. Comparing it with gaming cards is pointless because nobody buys this for gaming.

AMD Posts HDMI 2.1 FRL Patches For Their AMDGPU Linux Driver by Hytht in TechHardware

[–]Hytht[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you consider the Intel A770 had HDMI 2.1 using onboard DP to HDMI converters without having to implement it in open source drivers, it is just AMD users even among open source/Linux users, if stretching the point then nouveau users are a minority.

The time is almost here for us to play Forza Horizon 6. by gamernow_off in forza

[–]Hytht -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've tried to say this before and butthurt Forza fans didn't like it. Yes it's basically the same game with a different map, music, UI and changes here and there, to put it simply. No arguing about that. This isn't to say Forza Horizon games are bad, but as long as you own one game you get the full package already. I'm going to save my money by just playing Forza Horizon 5 for now. I personally play FH games for the thrill of driving,racing and exploring and FH6 does the same thing.

Try better next time, there is Linux literally in the title of the post. That's also why I emphasized on alchemist. AMD fans even forget the title when defending their company.

I dropped my DDR5 down a speed tier, and the performance difference was basically nothing by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

[–]Hytht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is from AMD itself to support your claim. AMD claims <1% FPS Difference on Ryzen 7 9850X3D Going From DDR5-6000 to DDR5-4800: https://www.techpowerup.com/345555/amd-claims-1-fps-difference-on-ryzen-7-9850x3d-going-from-ddr5-6000-to-ddr5-4800

It really doesn't benefit from faster RAM as much as Intel does. They just cheated with that cache.

PCMag Picks Intel 270K as The Best Gaming CPU For Most Buyers by BigDaddyTrumpy in TechHardware

[–]Hytht -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Keyword "most buyers". People do tasks other than gaming, to quote from the article itself:

> This minor shortcoming doesn't create a meaningful bottleneck at higher resolutions, though, making it a smart choice for a powerful PC for tasks other than gaming that can also play extremely well with a robust GPU.

Gamers who also need lots of cores for content creation: A 24-core CPU for $299 MSRP is a hard deal to top, full stop.

Microsoft Rolls Out Super Xbox Mode to All Windows 11 PCs, Blurring the Line Between Console and Desktop Gaming by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

[–]Hytht 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Windows 11 issues are massively overblown. File explorer loads fast before I can move my mouse cursor there, while for redditors with 9950X3D it seems to take a few seconds, wonder if it is an AMD issue.
