I welcome the competition in the space, but I have a feeling this is going to be underwhelming as shite first gen.

If Intel is smart, they will undercut AMD and Nvidia significantly enough to try and just get people on board than chasing early big profits on these things due to the market. Especially if they can stock these things.

I'm pretty sure they wont be smart about it though and just chase the early profits due to the market.

This is not a good early sign High prices for first Alchemist GPUs

~$800-$840 for 512EU model comparable to 3070
~$650-$570 for 384EU model comparable to 3060



I hate what crypto mining has done to the GPU market, just sucks. Back in 2019 we would have absolutely laughed our butt off over low-mid range GPUs like 3060's/6600's costing in the $600-$800 range.

"the good ole days" when RX580's were about ~$200 and less on sales

shite they were like $100 for the 8gb model on ebay at one point.

Thankfully I got my 3070 when I did and that I still only play one doo doo arse game, but I hope to get a 3080ti one day soon so I can give this 4k/144hz all the glory it deserves

I don't know what you're playing, but if it's something new and pretty, 4k at 144hz is a big ask of any gpu currently in existence. Hell, probably any gpu from next gen as well

I'm lucky to have 2 Microcenters nearby and they want $300 for a 1050 Ti.

Amazon officially listing the i5-12600K for pre-order...

For a price of $342.50

So much for competing with the 5600x, which has been going down to $270 routinely now.

Just bought a new house and I'll finally get my setup back to where I want it. Been a pain in the arse to find a 2u server case that'll work with my setup though.

May have to custom loop the 9900k with some 80mm rads, try and find some quiet yet effective fans, and pray

I feel that way any hard lined tubing. Normal tubing is easy

If I'm going to do it, I would likely do hard tubing, because yolo. But the whole concept of having to drain and clean and refill the damned thing sounds awful.

AMD's new Radeon RX 7900 XT detailed in new leaks: Navi 31 GPU on 5nm + 6nm TSMC, 32GB GDDR6, 3D Infinity Cache, RDNA 3 monster.


Jesus, I guess MCM is a pretty damn big deal holy frick.

quote:

AMD's next-gen RDNA 3 architecture will power the new Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs with the new Navi 31-based GPU being a monster MCM (multi-chip module) design that will see Team Red take a huge leap over Team Green.

AMD's new flagship Navi 31 GPU will have WGPs (Work Group Processors) that will see the end of CUs (Compute Units) with RDNA 3 and the MCM-based GPUs. Navi 31 will have 2 x IPs: the GCD (Graphics Core Die) which will be made on TSMC's new 5nm process, as well as an MCD (Multi-Cache Die) which is made on TSMC's new 6nm process node. We've heard recently that AMD had taped out its new Navi 31 MCM GPU die.

We should see GPU clocks of around 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz which should spit out a gigantic 75 TFLOPs of FP32 compute performance, which compared to the flagship Navi 21-based Radeon RX 6900 XT graphics card is a huge 226% performance improvement.

Yes, Navi 31 -- which should be the Radeon RX 7900 XT -- is 226% faster than AMD's fastest RDNA 2-based Radeon RX 6900 XT.
