    MarilynKira reacted to Fiberton in AMD Mantle vs NVidia G-SYNC   
    AMD changes over to 20nm in 2014 and then to 14nm finfet so says their CEO,CTO, and CFO thursday. They are about to roll out more product. The API interacts with GCN which are on all AMD cards for the future. G-Sync sounds cool though just don`t think it will be a big deal. You forget that less frames means less updates of information.. If I update 10 frames a second moving in a card compared to 60.. It dont matter how smooth it looks... it will look choppy from missing material and even Nvidia knows this. Once you drop to a certain fps.. nothing keeps it smooth. G-sync is good for quick drops then pickups. FPS drops stays smooths pops back up.. low fps for long periods of time.. low amount of frame updates. In the end G-sync is good if you card is fast as hell but you are say playing crysis and you swing to your left and a huge amount of foliage has to be rendered and you get a dip in frame rate will look smooth as hell. But other than that low end card will look low end.. Never fall for marketing. Can never trust a corporation to tell you 100% truth so never trust AMD, Nvidia and Intel. I would rather see it on not a demo but a real game with massive drain on frames and bullets flying etc. Now Mantle..hrm IF and this is ALWAYS a big if many developers jump on board which we will know November 11th for the developer conference then that seals the deal if Nvidia gets stomped or not. If many developers don't give a damn then it will be in only some of the top titles.. Interesting but if there is a large acceptance then sounds awesome.

    MarilynKira reacted to asusfan in Understanding AMD CPUs?   
    To make it simple most of the older chips are now gone but usually backwards compatable, an FM2 is an all in one intrigrated cpu with gpu built in (simular to what you get with Intel's chips) so you don't need a seperate graphics card.Then the AM3+ socket which is just a CPU is ideal for gamers and workstations. The AM3+ will accept some older cpu's (phemon II) but is mainly for the newer cpu's like the current FX series.
    FX consists of Bulldozer (1st gen) and piledriver (2nd gen) just look for the 2nd number in the chip model. a 1 = 1st gen, a 3=2nd gen
    The first number represents the number of cores, and the last 2 is like the model number.
    8150 = 8 cores, bulldozer @ 3.6 base clock speed
    4120 = 4 cores, bulldozer @ 3.9 base clock speed
    6300 = 6 cores, piledriver @ 3.5 base clock speed
    8350 = 8 cores, piledriver @ 4.0 base clock speed
    so yeah you have to look at the 2nd number to get the newer chips, and pick the number of cores and clock speeds depending what you need and can afford.

    you will need to upgrade your cpu,motherboard,rams,and probably your psu or you can overclock your cpu
    gaming requires graphics card horsepower you have a good gpu but other components are kinda old and holding your gpu behind
