The demos were clearly faked. It was funny to see AMD marketing and shills meme about perf/watt too, especially since poolaris is equivalent perf/watt to maxwell despite poolaris being on the 14nm process and nearly half the size of gm204.

Interesting how one of the AMD's supposed demo cards had DVI despite the final product not having a DVI connector.

Even more interesting is that several non-reference 290x and 390x cards had similar configuration: http://core0.staticworld.net/images/article/2015/07/strix-r9-390x-100596078-orig.png

holy delusional

There is a live demo of this using a Kill-A-Watt wall draw device telling you total system draw you fucking moron. The P10 variant with nearly twice the SPs naturally consumes more (~240W total system draw). The Polaris 10 cards weren't aimed towards this "medium settings 1080p60" area whatsoever.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9ZIcztgcNY

It's rather clear that AMD had the hardware way before the launch date, they likely had the silicon Q2 last year.

>>55534250
The card has a DVI header that board partners can attach DVI out to if they choose to drop the same PCB.

>>55534316
So the 950 was the total system usage not just the video card or the "architecture" as the ad misrepresents?

the point wasn't to complain about there being no dvi connector, but to show that the demo card was clearly not a genuine polaris 10 reference card. by the time they showed that polaris 10 demo (which was in april or may iirc) the PCB would have already been finalized and in production.

lol, not on the level the fury x2 went through. they changed the layout of the board completely and replaced many of the power delivery components with different ones, most likely because they were either glued on fakes or just weren't sufficient for the design in the first place. http://images.anandtech.com/doci/10279/RadeonProDuoBareD_StraightOn_4c_5inch.jpg

The PCB also had DVI pinout. AMD may have decided to change the board cooling solution and connectors last minute. Regardless, from looking at that picture, no one can know if that was a genuine P10 card. IIRC it was leaked by a journalist during a demo without context (I believe it was running Hitman).
>>55534387
It's aimed at entry level VR, as stated on slides. The 470 (also P10) is intended to max out games at 1080, and the 460 (P11) is designed for "esports" and 1080p gaming.

And that is the crux of how AMD blinds it fanmob. AMD is going to win because Vulkan has "potential" to replace DirectX. Devs have the "potential" to use async for multiple GPUs. The 480 has the "potential" to better than its Nvidia competition. So they'll just believe the speculation based upon AMD's potential and disregard any inconvenient evidence.

it's funny how AMD and it's fanboys still can't learn this. devs will not do extra work to extract a 10% performance gain from hardware that 1% of it's customers use. the same thing happened with the terascale architectures, bulldozer and GCN. it won't change with the poolaris GCN rehash. AMD will have to do the heavy lifting themselves if they want their cards to sell.

A lack of information does not equate to them lying to you. The demo was the only official piece of information at the time, which was released in January during the RTG Summit. AMD was simply exhibiting that they had a technology that focused on power efficiency.
>>55534637
Raja mentioned the 480 as a 1440p capable card (benchmarks show that the 480 is at it's limits at that resolution, memory bus simply isn't capable), but the 470 is mentioned as the 1080p60 card (further that it would be able to max out games). The 480 is repeatedly hailed as an entry point to VR.
>>55534643
The reason nVidia is winning in GPGPU is not because of perf/watt; that factor is rather insignificant because compute kernels run faster per watt on GCN from design since GCN 1.0, it's just an extremely ALU dense design. GPGPU is extremely popular on nVidia because they pioneered high level GPGPU APIs through CUDA, and is, at least at the moment, far more mature than OpenCL, bearing association to the majority of GPU compute libraries.

??? Yes? It was designed for "premium VR" according to slides. Of course this is very opague, and a lot of people overanalyze it to extrapolate performance because their lives revolve around computer hardware for whatever reason, but the common folk will have no such gripe.
>>55534818
I think that's rather tenuous. cgminer MH/s runs much, much faster per watt (450MH/s peak on my 7950 stock whereas CUDA mining on a 680 rakes in only 100MH/s). Of course, that depends on the task at hand, but any task that can be run concurrently at load with many threads will massively favor the design of the SIMD-V pipelines in GCN.

Presenting information in a manner that would be easily misunderstood by the common audience is misrepresentation.

consoles have their own custom OS, graphics API and other special configuration. most games still aren't parallelized despite the xbone and ps4 having two 4-core CPUs clocked at 1.8ghz either.

>Fermi couldn't get down to 90 at full load even with the fans at 100%

[citation needed]

thermi was a housefire but it wasn't 90c at 100% fan speed, even a shitty blower cooler can dissipate enough heat to prevent that (otherwise every reference 290x would have died within 5 minutes of use, since they drew more power, and therefore had to dissipate more heat as a result)

The PS4 runs pretty much the same hardware as the XBOne, optimization for both consoles is pretty similar
Also, the XBOne runs DX12

it doesn't, dx12 was not a thing when design for the xbone started. if there's dx12 support at all it'd be from a shitty wrapper built over the low level graphics api that it's os exposes.

>>moving the goalposts
Moving the goalposts? Do you even understand what that means? First you made a point about consoles but instead of elaborating you went onto a different point about mobiles, ie. completely irrelevant or "a different goalpost."

Then you argued about "support" as if it was synonymous with actual use. Very few engines actually use Vulkan (only one as far as I am aware and that is only in one game) even though console support it. Everything else is using DirectX.

You are the perfect example of the type of "blind AMD fanmob" I was describing earlier, ie. the goalpost.

not anymore, adreno was still a VLIW architecture when qualcomm bought it. they pretty much redesigned the entire thing into a modern unified simd architecture, completely different from the original 2005-era architecture they purchased.

no they don't, qualcomm purchased amd's entire mobile gpu division. the IP is wholly theirs.

Perf/watt are not equal regardless of architecture. As we learned with Fermi, leakage affects heat as well.

The 480 tech is just garbage compared to Nvidia's.

are you really trying to compare temperatures when the cooler and fan profile is different?

>Perf/watt are not equal regardless of architecture. As we learned with Fermi, leakage affects heat as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy

any energy you use comes back out as heat, you can't magically create extra energy from thin air like you're trying to imply. the only difference to make when all things are equal is how well the cooler dissipates heat.
>>
>>55535685
It's true though. AMD's cards have been hotter and less power efficient than Nvidia's for like 3 generations now.
>>
>>55535884
>are you really trying to compare temperatures when the cooler and fan profile is different?
Yes. It proves the point that heat is not equal based simply on being used at the same draw.

>any energy you use comes back out as heat
At the same rate at the same draw? Does a 16nm node produce the same heat as a 28nm node at the same draw?

You have way, way, WAY oversimplified things and seem to be determined to present yourself like a complete idiot on the subject to avoid admitting to a simple error.

which is the result of the 480 having a weaker cooler, not some magical property of amd's architecture or process.

the real question to ask here is how AMD could have possibly made such a terrible architecture that it's nearly 1/2 the performance of an equivalent nvidia chip despite equivalent power consumption and process.
>>
>>55535958
>which is the result of the 480 having a weaker cooler, not some magical property of amd's architecture or process.
No claim was made that there was any magical property only that it was DIFFERENT which is contrary to the idiot claim:
>they're roughly the same in power draw so they produce the same heat
Different cards, obviously, will produce different levels of heat even on the same power draw.
>>
>>55535973
>Different cards, obviously, will produce different levels of heat even on the same power draw.

so now you're saying AMD's design violates basic rules of physics and that you can get more energy out than you put in. kek.
>>
>>55536002
>so now you're saying AMD's design violates basic rules of physics
Let's get this straight. We have two cards using the same amount of energy. One is a 28nm node card and the other is a 16nm node card. But if one produces more heat at the same 150w it somehow "violates basic rules of physics?"
>>
>>55536025

yes. heat is energy. if one card emits more heat than another despite equivalent power draw and no other factors accounted for the difference (like the different cooler) then you would have what is essentially a perpetual motion machine. you would be able to generate more electricity from the heat it put out than the electricity you used to power the device.

Because you don't get less resistance meaning less energy is wasted in heat with a smaller node?
>The benefits of shrinking

As a high-level abstraction, you can pretend that each layer has zero thickness, including the insulative layers in between the layers that you use to draw your circuit. However, reality is not so kind. Layers have non-zero thickness, and their thickness doesn't scale to perfectly match when you change your value of lambda.

This means that if you move to a smaller value of lambda (a smaller process node), interesting things can happen. For instance, suppose you have a capacitor made up of two stacked squares of metal. The capacitance (analogous to resistance) of that capacitor is directly proportional to the area of the plates, and inversely proportional to the distance between them (and also directly proportional to a material proprty that we will treat as constant for simplicity).
Nor are there concerns with leakage wasting energy as heat regardless of node size?
>The tradeoffs of shrinking

>All is not sunshine and roses, though. Smaller transistors have higher leakage currents, and they can create new headaches.

>Leakage current is often compared to a leaking faucet: no matter how hard you try to close the valve, it is never quite completely closed. So it leaks a little bit. All else being equal, smaller transistors have to contend with higher leakage currents. There are all sorts of tweaks that can be done to the materials to combat this, but those can only do so much.

>Leakage current translates into static power consumption, the power that a chip consumes even when it is sitting and doing nothing.

>Because you don't get less resistance meaning less energy is wasted in heat with a smaller node?

you still don't seem to understand this. how much energy you 'waste' does not matter. ALL of the energy has to come back out as heat. energy does not cease to exist just because a GPU used it to calculate 2+2 for each pixel on your screen.
>>
>>55536193
>how much energy you 'waste' does not matter.
Because that waste does not take the form of heat? What form does that wasted energy take?
>>
>>55536216

all of the energy the card uses comes back out as heat regardless of how what % of that you waste with bad design. are you a burgerfat or something? you can't really be stupid enough to think the 'not wasted' energy just disappears into the aether right?
>>
>>55536245
What is heat? A measurable difference in temperature?

>The transfer of energy from one body to another as a result of a difference in temperature or a change in phase.
If we have energy converting from one body to another with a different resulting temperature are they both the same amount of heat? Are you trying to define heat without regards to temperature?

Rates of heat? What does that mean?

Heat is directly proportional to power, there is nowhere else the heat is coming from.

The only thing that changes is the rate of heat dissipation, i.e. how fast a cooler moves the heat away from the chip.

The amount of total heat generated is always equal to the power usage, no matter what cooler you use.

I'm pretty certain two circuits with the same power draw but different resistances will produce heat at different rates. Unless you can provide evidence to the otherwise? No? I thought not.

What? I assume it's clear that thermodynamically clear that what comes out of wall has to be converted into heat if we assume that the work done is negligible (fans). The heat transfer argument is largely irrelevant because the size, material, and environments of the cards are very similar, even in 28nm designs, so the heat transfer compared to each other is also very similar. Some one screencap that idiot for retard hall of fame.

It is. See the second part of >>55536316

Stop bringing up irrelevant and already noted as irrelevant arguments.

> The heat transfer argument is largely irrelevant because the size, material, and environments of the cards are very similar, even in 28nm designs, so the heat transfer compared to each other is also very similar.
Except one, we are not comparing two 28nm designs. The claim was far more general. Are you trying to move the goalposts now?

And even if I do humor you and allow you to move the goalposts that still doesn't change simple laws of physics. You too may see >>55536472 if you want to argue two circuits with different resistances and the same "power draw" would produce the same rate of heat.
