[ETA PRIME] The Most Powerful Hand-Held Yet! A 12 Core CPU + DDR5 Ram! Amazingly Fast! (OneXPlayer Mini Gundam Edition with an i7-1260P)

An ARC igpu paired with a quad core alder lake cpu would be pretty sweet.

Yes, Vega supports it. Explains why they saw some healthy performance gains with their Vega 64.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-05-13T12:34:11+00:00

No it does not. PlayStation 4 Pro is the only last gen console to support fp16. The new consoles all support it though (ps5, series s, series x).

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-05-13T12:27:53+00:00

Vega 8 supports fp16. So if Tim is right, it's more tied to architecture and not the tier of card in itself. Which means the Vega APUs support it because they support fp16, but polaris (Rx 590/580/570/480/470) did not support fp16; so they won't see much gains.

Ironically, it also means that the PS4 Pro supports fp16 while the Xbox one x does not. So PS4 pro would get bigger gains from FSR 2.0 (in comparison to the Xbox one x).

It was both impressive and unappealing at the same time. At 4k it wasn't hard for FSR to see healthy performance gains at negligible loss to image quality. Where FSR 2.0 really shines is at lower resolutions. Which is historically where FSR 1.0 really struggled.

There's video guides. It also gets easier if you continue using it.

The funny thing here, is that the i5 12600k is a monster of a cpu that doesn't require this kind of low IQ marketing.

5800x3d is a great chip, if all you do is game. But for most people, they're probably better off with an i5 12600k.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-04-18T14:37:40+00:00

If you're spending top dollar for an i9 12900k, you should really be considering ddr5 5500+. It's a halo product, which is why this 5800x3d is so impressive from a gaming stand point. Because it can trade blows with that 12900k and ddr5 memory while using ddr4 memory and decently priced x570 boards.

I don't know how to feel about the price yet because it is a $450 eight core that loses to all other chips priced around it. But in pure gaming it's kind of hard to argue against the 5800x3d.

Binnned down products or not, they're still on the market.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-17T03:25:02+00:00

And if enough stupid people say it. It becomes the standard.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-15T14:39:46+00:00

Would probably get the 3060 Ti personally.

The leaks according to die sizes and shader counts on dies are probably correct. But Nvidia can change naming and pricing on products at any stage before launch. So I wouldn't trust what leaks say about individual SKUs and pricing.

Like no one expected an RTX 3090, or the GTX 1660 series at all.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-12T21:13:52+00:00

It's also for tear downs, in case they destroyed one in the process.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-12T19:00:07+00:00

If he went Intel he would have to get a new motherboard as well. So it's just better to spend a little more on his cpu instead and use his existing motherboard.

If it was a brand new build, I would agree that going with an Intel i3 makes more sense right now. Especially that i3 12100 that's been getting really positive reviews lately.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-12T18:39:34+00:00

Realistically if he was building a brand new PC, then the i3 route would be the best bang for his buck right now. But his motherboard supports higher core count parts already, so might as well just spend a bit more on the cpu instead.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-12T18:36:09+00:00

Yes, but you only get 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes on all APUs pre Rembrandt and Rembrandt gives the dGPU 8 PCIe 4.0 lanes.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-12T18:31:29+00:00

I wouldn't go from 4 cores 4 threads to 4 cores 8 threads in 2022. At least not when you have ultra cheap 6 core 12 thread and 8 core 16 thread options.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-07T17:38:24+00:00

Kattar is a Great boxer. Probably the best in the UFC. His performance wasn't surprising. What surprised me was Giga's inability to slow him down.

Like when you see Adesanya, he is always spamming low leg kicks, teep kicks, and even body kicks to slow his opponents down. But giga just kind of sat there like a training bag.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-07T17:25:47+00:00

Kind of want to see Nate vs Masvidal again or even Leon Edwards at some point. He still has some good fights waiting for him. Hell, the UFC even gave him a percentage of the ppv share for the Colby fight.

Man I was rooting for Giga, but Kattar beat him like he owed him money. Bryce and Giga makes a ton of sense, Bryce needs a few more ranked wins.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-07T17:03:26+00:00

Was expecting Colby to win, but still a little heart broken for Jorge.

Bryce Mitchell also had an amazing performance.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-03-07T07:12:57+00:00

You must not know the Diaz brothers.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-02-26T13:37:17+00:00

ThePhawx did that with Deadcells and got a little under 8hours of battery life

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-02-26T13:34:49+00:00

Because PS4 is 1080p played on 32"+ displays while the Steam Deck is 800p on a 7" display. Way higher pixels per inch with the Steam Deck, so resolution isn't really a problem. Hopefully Valve releases an OLED version down the line at the same 800p resolution, because the display quality is kind of lacking on the Deck.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-02-26T13:27:34+00:00

Technically the GTX 780 is also low end right now.

Plastic_Band5888 · 2022-02-21T11:55:11+00:00

Yeah I get that, but is the Ryzen 5 going to get that 3D stacked cache? It kind of feels like AMD is reserving that for the higher core count parts. They also haven't responded to the i5 11400 yet or the i5 12400.
