Alimony reacted to leadeater in GDDR7 Memory For Next-Gen GPUs Enters Verification Stage, Cadence Delivers Technical Details: 36 Gbps with PAM3 Encoding
Cost. Wider bus requires more die area in the die, more memory modules and more complicated PCB. Ideally you only implement as wider memory subsystem as required for the bandwidth needed to supply the workload. If 192-bit wide bus can do what is required with a particular memory generation standard then it's perfectly sufficient. If however there are situations where workload performance is being memory bandwidth limited then analysis on by how much is the first starting point, because if it's only happening on a limited range of situations and the impact is 10% or less then the cost in increasing to 256-bit is likely not justified.
I suspect Nvidia does a lot of design and performance projections around memory bandwidth requirements for creating each die configuration to service products so I doubt performance really is being limited that much in any current or previous product. Nvidia's not going to fill a die with any more SMs/CUDA cores that cannot be used due to memory bandwidth limitations, they'd simply not put them in in the first place.

Alimony reacted to Arika in NAVI31 won’t be using the RTX 4090’s melting power connector!
I can guarantee this is not because of the issues nvidia is facing, they were just not planning on doing it this gen

Alimony reacted to JLO64 in NVIDIA hit by a cyber attack
As bad as the situation (possibly) surrounding this is, hopefully we’ll get some leaks on the 40-series cards.

Alimony reacted to TopWargamer in Lenovo to phase out Motorola brand from smartphones
That's a really dumb move by Lenovo. At least keep the Motorola name alive in North America, because everybody knows and trusts the Motorola brand. Rebranding future Motorola phones to the "Lenovo Moto whatever" is not a good marketing decision.

Alimony reacted to vanished in Lian Li revealed a yacht theme aluminium case- PC-Y6
Do they actually sell well though? I'm having trouble imagining the market for this; if we take the people who care enough about computers to want that crazy of a "case", and take the people who would want this over something also cool looking but way more practical, I'm not sure there is much if any overlap :wacko:

Alimony reacted to EarthboundHero in CS:GO is the best selling game on steam in 2015. Beats GTA V and Fallout 4.
You know, like they did with Fallout 3 and Oblivion.

Alimony reacted to Kobathor in Amazon.com Stories...
I once ordered an item, and I got the item after they shipped it.
Really though, the worst experience I've had with Amazon is receiving an item 4 days late (guaranteed shipping.) They gave me a free $10 gift card, so I didn't mind.

Alimony reacted to Albatross in Amid flood of public input, Lew delays decision on putting woman on $10
If they are going to remove someone just for the sake of including a woman (I find that disagreeable) then it better be a woman who actually did something. I'm not talking Obama level "peace rewards" either. I mean did something great or something. Not that she-devil Hilary, either.
Honestly the only one I can think of that wouldn't be a PC addition would be Sacagawea...

You're missing the point and I think you should read the article before commenting about the subject.

I love how Windows 10 has one update error and the entire community of Win10 haters jump on it and start bitching that Windows 10 is horrible and error filled and glitchy and how theyre so glad that theyre still using an OS from 2009...
