4080 12GB did its task. It send the gamers a message that do not wait for cheaper 40 series cards go by 30 series now. Now the best thing Nvidia can do is wait until navi 3 has launched and release 4070 ti with same specs but decide price p

That 12GB 4080 had compute bit above 3090 ti. But memory bandwidth between 3070 and 3070 ti. If it the cache hit rate is similar to Navi2 of similar size. It would have effective bandwidth similar to 3090 in 1440p and way above any previou

The old site looked liked it's exported from org-mode files. New site looks less like that. Probably still done by exporting the same org files in emacs. The workflow to build that site is completely different from what most web design

Sounds to me that they needed to move people from Starcraft team to making mobile version of Starcraft for the Chinese market. They also recognize, that Starcraft is such a phenomena that marketing dollars to get equivalent exposure any oth

Just that new and shiny is here doesn't mean the old system became slower. The compilation improvement of 9%, for me it means that most important thing didn't get significantly faster. Unless the Phoronix tests on compiling Apache

If we split the cycle time in two components, one is transistor and one is interconnect. Interconnect delay per length increases as much as the length decreases in each shrink. The transistor delay halves. That halving got transistor delay

On package interconnection latency and power is way lower than going off package, AMD also doubled the L3 cache size to compensate for increased memory latency. The issue of putting too much IO in single die is that perimeter of die/pa

I thought so also, but decade of small improvements do accumulate to a large number. Something like 20% improvement 4 times would be doubling the IPC, but single threaded compilation is where I got more than that. The after purchase testing

I was planning on same thing, until I estimated how much faster modern PC was at single threaded compilation tasks compared to my old one, and how it impacted my productivity. I should of upgraded earlier.

Taking care of health is interesting optimization problem. Too bad that almost advice in the topic is given by people trying to change fit bodies to professional bodybuilders. Or from crash course to fastest results with diminishing return

I looked Agner's tables, and was curious how Intel fared with it. All numbers are reciprocal throughput. So how many cycles per instruction in throughput. zen 2 has it's gather variants mostly 9 and 6 cycles and one variant with

As a Zen2 owner I'm very disappointed in VPGATHERDD througput, that's so 2013. On the other hand I like the loop and call instruction performance a lot.

Or more likely the 10nm process yield issues are the reason Ice Lake Xeon's are late. One potential is that Ice Lake Xeons are less relevant because it is on market short period before replaced by Sapphire Rapids. Since they got the Ti

The Amdahl's law applies here also, if your code is slow everywhere, making the slowest part faster isn't going to help much, so there needs to be some basic minimal consideration given the performance throughout the project. Or b
