AMD

When worse is supposed to be better but turns out to actually be worse. Or the same. Which is essentially still worse.

Is AMD prepping a V-Cache equipped Workstation CPU - or is this a false alarm?

Put that thing in a museum!

I landed on this article today about how to configure vLLM for AMD GPUs and it contained this specific snippet:

Meta recently announced they’re running 100% of their live Llama 3.1 405B model traffic on AMD MI300X GPUs [...]

I thought that was an interesting piece of trivia and shows both how important it is for industrial partners to find alternatives to Nvidia and also how much AMD has improved its software suite to enable these use-cases.

AMD’s successor to the 7800X3D is nearly here.

In some applications, Strix Point can deliver up to 3.5X lower latency than Lunar Lake.

This is not to be confused with systemd_bsod, which has a similar function but fails in scenarios that crash user space, unlike DRM_Panic.

Please feed some of that back into gaming GPUs, Dr. Su.

Radeon RX 8000 seems to be around the corner.

Server, cloud, client, laptop combined, AMD's CPU sales are now matched by its AI chips.

$6.819 billion, up 18% year-over-year

Strix Point runs the tables when it comes to local LLM performance

This sounds like the foundation for FSR 4.

A real arrow in the knee for Intel.

So that's where the higher clock speeds and better thermals stem from.

Budget Ryzen AI 300 APUs are not far off.

AMD arms motherboard makers with a new firmware update arriving just in time for the Ryzen 7 9800X3D launch.

New AM4 processors just dropped.

Ryzen 7 9800X3D is seemingly en route to becoming the fastest gaming CPU in the world.

More widespread FSR 3.1 adoption in games is likely on the way

In a now-deleted Bilibili post, prominent leaker Golden Pig Upgrade recently shared details on an upcoming lineup of mobile AMD processors for handheld gaming PCs. The three SoCs will feature integrated GPUs with 12 compute units, each employing a different Radeon graphics architecture.

If you were hoping to learn more about Zen 5 X3D parts, I'm sorry to disappoint. But we'll walk you through the few details we have and the potential reasons for this kind of soft announcement.

Products are expected to launch this month with availability from November.

AM4's legacy lives on.

Gigabyte claims X3D Turbo Mode enables Ryzen 9000 CPUs "to achieve similar gaming performance levels as their Ryzen X3D counterparts."
