Dead on arrival tech general?

was the p4 really that bad? Maybe Intel redeemed themselves with the Core2Due - it overclocked like a crazed bitch.

NetBurst. Also, the Geforce FX line.

It really was. Core2 basically scrapped everything they did with p4 and use p3 mobile as a base.

That's AR.

Don't forget one of the biggest piles of dogshit in GPU history. Those were the times when nvidia made cards so abominable AMD was able to beat them sill with the 4870, 5970

Not locking defective 980 chip aka 970 properly and going 3,5+0,5 instead of 3GB.

Apple showed the iPhone with a fully GPU accelerated interface at rock solid 60 fps in 2007
Nokia bought one and spent thousands of dollars on high speed cameras to try and analyze its interface.

Two years later, they came up with this.

They did not actually put a GPU in their phones until next year, with the N8.

Even worse: they thought they still had years to make a competing product. Meanwhile the Jews at Google violated every patent known to man and copied the iPhone (while the Jew Eric Schmidt was on Apple's board of directors and telling them they were not competitors) too fast for Nokia to survive. Any non-Apple market share went to Google.

What an unmitigated disaster

Nokia pretty much failed when smartphones started coming out. Now windows owns them and the phones aren't bad actually. Mediocre os or performance, but they're quite solid thanks to gorilla glass.

P4 was such a disaster that Intel threw it out and went back to the P3 architecture, which continues to be the basis for their processors to this day.
