So, MBP's will have AMD gpus again?

>There are also an increasing number of rumours which suggest AMD set aside a GPU design for Apple, for its latest FinFet 14nm architecture graphics cards. It is also presumed the new GPU will be twice as fast as the current MacBook Pro, making it a worthy upgrade for most.

Asking, because of hackintosh. Dont want to buy unsuported GPU again.
>>
>>54473676
yeah why not cut costs and make a profit by selling at the same price
>>
>>54473683
well, at least I as a hackintosher get to save some shekels too
>>
New Mac Pro, iMac, and likely MacBook Pro will use AMD GPUs.
>>
That's gonna suck for hackintosh if they only support AMD but you have a nvidia or intel integrated GPU. They've been notoriously fucky about that kinda shit on the laptop side.
>>
>>54473683
AMD is 14nm, NVIDIA is 16, I guess it increases battery life too.
>>
All rMBP comes with Intel GPU anyway, they'll always have Intel drivers for OSX

Nvidia always has drivers for OSX

>>
>>54473722
well, I dont know if NVIDIA can release 3d party drivers for GPU's which are not sold by Apple
>>
>>54473745
>Nvidia always has drivers for OSX
yes, for the GPU's found in apple products
>>
>>54473676
It depends on how power efficient AMD Polaris is.
If AMD can beat nVidia on performance per watt, and market their chips at an aggressive price point, we may very well see AMD GPUs in MacBooks.

Keep in mind that the retina iMac's all (but one, which has intel HD) have AMD GPU's, the the Mac Pro has firepros.

PROTIP: It also supports GeForce 900 series & 600/700 series

How do you think Barefeats can run GTX 980 Ti?

You really don't know the Hackintosh scene well, huh?
>>
>>54473801
I prefer OOB models. I also prefer saving shekels

>>54473676
Fuck off back to macrumors.
>>
>>54473811
well, my current card is AMD. Never had hackintosh with Nvidia, so never really cared about it.
>>
>>54473676
Since we all know that macbooks are made with shit tier components, it checks out.

AMD is just one big smelly turd waiting to collapse, just like apple.

it would be nice if you'd be so engaged in obvious windows shill threads.

I am asking a legit question about soon to be released nextgen GPU's.
>>
>>54473987
>>54473998
That's about 2.6 posts per IP,which isn't out of the ordinary.

The real bait is implying the thread is full of samefags because people have posted more than once.

Off yourselves
>>
Sure. It'd make sense if they asked for a similar deal to the consoles: SoCs with a powerful iGPU, only with Zen. Intel's graphics still suck, and Apple like dual-sourcing and could get the design fabbed themselves.

Got to wonder: they make their own SoCs. Rumours have circulated for years that they'd like to transition from OS X to some form of iOS; it's certainly higher-quality. And this is Apple. They'd like to walled-garden the Mac, they'd dreamed of it for years.

>>54473904

you think apple engineers post on 4chan at 3am on a tuesday?
>>
>>54474011
I was 1 of the posts, now 2.. which means everyone else made 3 posts but more likely 2-3 faggots made 10 posts each
>>
Best thing is even if Apple is being a dick, you can still use Nvidia in Hackintoshs thanks to the Nvidia Web Driver updates on www.nvidia.com
>>
>>54474020
>>54474019
>welcome to the thread, two new comers.

yes where else would apple engineers be?
>>
>>54474020
I dont think apple engineers post at all on 4chan. But maybe some assistant or something like that who has insider info.

But I really dont even care. I'll find out after WWDC.

abandon thread so autists can have their peace.

Hackintosh doesn't run on Tegra ARM shit.

Still won't have any problems, Apple are integrating AMD for dGPU solutions, not any AMD CPU/APUs.

Who cares?
