    Why does raytracing suck so much, is it because of nvidia's bad hardware implementation?

    I think everyone agrees that adding 50% bloat to the die with next to 0 return for the end user for their money is a brutal design choice. If/when the time is right, I think AMD's implementation will be more elegant and efficient. Maybe some sort of CPU/GPU hybrid approach?

    Report: Is nVidia's Volta architecture broken for precision math?

    News hitting the web now suggest that Volta has flaws in silicon and can't produce predicable, accurate or reliable precision math. WOW. That's not good. 2 + 2 = 4, er, 4.1, no, 4.3... Nvidia's Titan V GPUs spit out 'wrong answers' in scientific simulations Fine for gaming, not so much for...

    How disruptive is AMD's Open Source Deep Learning Strategy and ROCm?

    The combination of Naples and Radeon Instinct on ROCm with an open source software stack will be very attractive to developers and does indeed look very disruptive. http://instinct.radeon.com/en-us/the-potential-disruptiveness-of-amds-open-source-deep-learning-strategy/

    Why is AMD's Zen more efficient than intel's Core?

    Is it the architecture or 14nm process or both? It's stunning that somehow AMD has managed to outdo intel in efficiency when intel was supposed to have such a superior 14nm process. I think a lot of it is from GloFo's 14nm process and i think it'll be even more impressive in mobile. But, all the...
