        AMD is awesome ^^ they’ll rule the land of x86 for quire some while imho. But the problem of supporting hegemony is obvious.

        AMDs upcoming GPUs are purportedly on par with NVIDIAs Maxwell, but as long as the prices are the same, we’re in the same boat.

        Luckily the prices have been falling, largely because NPUs are replacing GPUs as the primary handler of AI workloads - since it’s more performative and saves on electricity costs.

        But, in a “free market” competition mui importante.

      I looked into those recently, actually expected the GPUs to be a lot farther behind than they are. The things that are really pushing them back are the drivers and the outdated process node, but there are already GPUs comparable to the lower end current generation cards from the 3 big manufacturers on paper (and even those have 16GB of VRAM, Nvidia 😤).

        The image of China as an uncreative, uneducated backwards nation of drones good only for assembling phones, hasn’t been the reality for at least a decade.

        A lot of people in the West don’t realize this because to this day there’s a vicious cycle of people only import cheap Chinese crap because China has a reputation for only making cheap crap because people only import the cheap crap. They don’t realize that China is also making top tier products, because nobody’s trying to import top tier Chinese products.

        They’re a loooooong way off being able to match any nvida card from the last like 7 years, at least.

          You have been dead wrong with every reply. Why are you still trying?

              DLSS and RTX are not why these bans are happening bud

                Who said they are? What an odd thing to say.

                I said that theyre Chinese GPUs cant even match any RTX cards or DLSS. Where did I say they were banned because of that?

                  the entire topic is an article about geo tracking cards to avoid china getting around bans, and the larger context of that is AI; not gaming

                  DLSS is entirely off-topic and irrelevant to workloads other than games, and thus the discussion here

            I have him tagged. I see him everywhere, and continues to be wrong all the time. No idea why she even spends her time doing this.
