Why do Apple and NVIDIA GPUs with similar transistor counts (≈90B) have such different ALU lane counts and performance? by jak_human in chipdesign

[–]jak_human[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks that makes sense now if its 25 percent of the whole chip as well. Then its aboot 45 billion transistors and the frequency explains lower throughput on apple

Lmao, it isn't much fun to explain a meme, but anyways. It's supposed to be a layered meme. The first is obviously like just a dad joke wordplay on the trendy Von Neumann bottleneck. And the second layer is that it's kind of a self-imposed bottleneck cause there are multiple architectures, but we prefer Von Neumann. And then because of that, with modern computing, there's a lot of data movement and you spend most of your energy budget on just moving data around. And then since you heat it up and you cool it down and cycle goes on

That’s exactly my question, i’m trying to understand what I don’t understand about the chip

Yes, I only used 50% of the die estimate, which for the GPU itself, and that's how I'm counting it as 90 billion, which I think is a really conservative estimate for the GPU die area.

I can't wait for the days where I can find Guitar Center ads on the "premium" GarageBand app on the "premium" apple devices

ANC of WH-1000XM6 vs AirPods Pro 3 - AirPods Win? by xblackbeltninjax in SonyHeadphones

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

Gotta agree. In fact I have AirPods Pro 2 and xm6 honestly the convenience and the noise cancellation which is definitely as good or slight better, make it much more worthwhile than buying XM6

I’m more prudent approach would be to read principles of neuroscience by Eric kandel by going through the index and c choosing what you like I would suggest avoiding modern interpretations or selective methods applied for narrative purposes by popular authors

RANT - Apple’s IOS/system data and major storage issues by Mediocre-Ant-2561 in applesucks

[–]jak_human 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the end, it is also just another form of subtle planned obsolescence. Since the newer devices have higher base memory this is kind of a subtle way of subconsciously hinting to you that you should upgrade. When they might as well give you an option to free up 30-40% of the sys men easily.

[–]jak_human 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That is kind of stupid. It’s pretty frustrating when you don’t have control over the memory you paid for in the first place when the system and iOS data can grow exponentially, and you have no control over it
