>AMD not particularly interested in mobile

Thank you AMD for sticking to your roots and ignoring the mobile/tablet cancerbag.
Let Nvidia and Intel waste money on it, maybe they'll get hit over the head once they see its not going anywhere and start focusing solely on GPU/CPU

>yfw AMD is so poor they have to use the excuse of "no interest in mobile" to cover up the fact they have no money for it
>>
>>53589281
AMD has never in their history expressed much interest in mobile.
They aren't all that interest in laptop GPUs, much less SFF crap
>>
>>53589303
Rather, they can't do anything about mobile, since they lose out in power efficiency.
>>
>>53589329
Even Intel and Nvidia don't do all that well on power efficiency in the <5W TDP range, of course AMD can't either with its 28nm GPUs
>>
>>53589351
Well AMD GPUs will rip through a mobile battery playing youtube videos due to a flaw that they still can't fix after all these years, which require them to drive the ram clock to maximum to prevent the glitch. Nvidia fixed the flaw by the 600 series.
A GTX 980Ti spend 10W playing videos while an R9 290 spend 70W. HBM alleviated the problem somewhat but the problem is still there.

This is a multi-monitor issue, isn't it?
Last I remembered AMD's UVD is pretty efficient.
>>
>>53589254
Until Polaris their chips weren't power efficient enough to use in mobile very well, and until we get zen APUs with HBM on die they aren't going to focus too hard on mobile
>>
>>53589533
Both multimonitor and video playing will cause the problem. Any AMD owner can simply open up GPU-Z and check the temperature+ram clock and play a video to verify this.
Hardware acceleration used by browsers will also cause the problem.
>>
Who would even buy AMD powered phone to burn their hands?

AMD HOUSEFIRES

AMD HOUSEFIRES EVERYWHERE

Thank fuck.
I know we're pretty much at the end of Moore's law, so individual cores aren't getting faster, but when's the amd 32 core CPU come out?
