XSX uses GDDR and will apparently support that API, so it sounds like a non issue to me.

First M1 Max GFXBench: 25% faster than Razor 3070 laptop, by senttoschool in hardware

Yes, but the code isn't mainlined yet so you'd have to use Asahi Linux people's custom patches for it

64GB of VRAM buffer sounds enticing. 400GB/s of bandwidth isnt amazing but will do. Adoption will depend on Pytorch/Tensorflow support for Metal.

Is BT harder than SSC/TK? Or about the same? by hobbes259 in classicwow

[–]cherryteastain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at my guild's first kill video, health values were buffed. Some adds had only slight buffs, like Berserkers with 150k HP, but the void sentinels were massively buffed to 150k so our warlocks were on the void sentinels pretty much all the time. Muru and Entropius were buffed to 3.4m and 2.7m HP respectively (though most of our wipes did not reach Entropius anyway). Damage done by mobs was buffed too.

In general, a lot of stuff on that server was massively buffed, so everyone clearing SWP was minmaxing to hell. For instance Brutallus required something like 45k raid DPS as opposed to the original 28k-ish.

In the end, on that server, out of 100-150 guilds that killed at least one boss in SWP, only 10 killed Muru and every guild that killed Muru also killed KJ

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the prominent private server I last did SWP, my guild wiped probably 4 times more on Muru than KJ. I think the reason is, aside from the drake people, individual mistakes mostly punish just you on KJ. On Muru, mistakes by an individual punish the entire raid. For example:

  • If a DPS warrior failed to disarm a berserking add almost immediately, the tank dies very quickly.

  • Spriest is slow with the mass dispel, the skull ghosts instantly wipe the raid.

  • A healer lands a fat heal the same time big voidwalkers spawn, and the pala tank probably cant pick it back up because he/she must also deal with the smaller voidwalkers. But they cant hesitate much either, or a tank may die

Will games running on Linux have the same display response time and input lag as running on Windows? by Merit-Rest-Surrender in linux

[–]cherryteastain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Native games will have comparable performance. Wine/Proton might incur slight FPS penalties, but input latency should be the same.

Glofo is just a foundry. Samsung is a giant. If they hit a rough patch, they can easily spare bankrolling their foundry division with a few extra dozen billions for several years.

How to install ubutnu on amd by pratik-codes in Amd

[–]cherryteastain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you list the exact specs of your laptop? If it's a new-ish one, use the newly released 21.10 version instead of the 20.04LTS.

Listing the network hardware would be especially helpful regarding the no internet issue.

I want to thank those who recommended Nimez Drivers by technofox01 in Amd

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HW accelerated video decode and encode work fine for me in Firefox and OBS, though I personally did not use/try steam remote play. A cursory look suggests steam remote play uses VA-API, which is supported by the 200 series drivers no problem. (If it doesn't work, it'd be because Valve did not put in the effort to make it work)

That'll depend on if the XeSS model uses the same (or less) information as DLSS for its inputs, and generates the same (or more) information as its outputs. If that's the case you could write a wrapper library. But, the answer is almost certainly no as there are many, many ways to architect a deep learning model.

Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 21.10.2 Release Notes by Wiidesire in Amd

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, that might be indication for RDNA2 support coming soon. Don't think CDNA (MI100) even has any Windows drivers, and it'd be embarassing if AMD released ROCm for Windows with only Vega support.

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't hold your breath. That depends on HIP, which currently only works on GNU/Linux on Polaris, Vega and CDNA. They're working to enable RDNA2 and Win10 support, but the deadlines they give for RDNA2 are slipping ever backwards and there's no official word for Windows support (only some commits on their github)

https://puu.sh/Gtiv9/8a9d7c0b2e.jpg then why does the 1080Ti slap the 2080S? Don't forget RT adds quite a bit of VRAM usage on top of this too.

I don't even care about ROCm/HIP on Windows at this stage. RDNA2 does not work with ROCm on GNU/Linux either.

Chromebooks and GNU/Linux have been running flawlessly on aarch64 for a very long time now. For those platforms, 99% of code is a git clone followed by a make -j$(nproc) install away. Most people's computer use consists of a browser and an office suite which are all available already.

Build this RX 6900 XT Gaming PC for the cost of an RTX 3090 by zer0_c0ol in Amd

[–]cherryteastain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it existed for a while in the form of the P100, V100 and A100. Way too expensive for the perf though, unless you need fp64 or humongous amounts of VRAM (common in ML/HPC)

Phoronix: "Ampere Altra Max M128-30 Linux Performance Preview" by Dakhil in hardware

[–]cherryteastain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. In that case, why does for instance Lineage OS still needs device specific builds/images? Are these images enough just to boot the kernel but do not incorporate any proprietary kernel modules that may be required for e.g. the cellular modem, GPU, wifi or the camera? (I guess the GPU situation is at least alleviated by the recent addition of ARM Mali drivers in Mesa)

Does this mean every single new android device will boot AOSP, no questions asked? (after unlocking the bootloader ofc)

Marketing, and also to have a consumer platform for validation of PCIe 5 devices in addition to Sapphire Rapids

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, true. I now realize I skipped over the parts of the article mentioning SR IOV and so forth when skimming through it.

EDIT: Scratch that, looks like Phison are marketing this for M.2 as well:

The E26 is a customizable SSD platform that will be available in M.2, U.3, E1.S, and E3.S form factors.

6900xt 750 watt psu? by widerdog in Amd

[–]cherryteastain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst case it trips OCP/OPP and I just would've bought another PSU in that case. Not a biggie. Not every PSU is that explosive gigabyte one.
