The legendary game designer and programmer responsible for creating the first ever first person shooter and the first ever PC LAN games (Doom, Quake, Wolfenstein 3D) took his frustrations with Nvidia's patent litigation with Samsung and Qualcomm to twitter shaming the company for promoting it.

"It disturbs me that Nvidia reports on their patent litigation as if we are supposed to be cheering for them."
He stated

 
The entire lawsuit is very controversial once broken, if successful it means that no other company in the world would be allowed to design and sell graphics processors without Nvidia's consent.

You have to understand that patents merely protect your implementation of an idea not the idea itself. Nvidia is claiming that if any company builds any sort of logic that processes graphics then its infringing on its patent, because it "invented the GPU".
 
That's absolutely ridiculous in that case I'll just patent the use of human beings as employees in companies and then sue every company in the world.  I'm sorry but if you don't see through this then you're jaded beyond reason.

There is going to be a court case. That is all that has been decided. No one has won anything. NVidia gets to sue on their definitions, which is not uncommon.
 
Not only does NVidia have the most hostile consumer strategies, in the gpu business, with their proprietary closed eco systems, resulting in low technology adoption, fewer product options and higher pricing (due to vendor lock in and the subsequent high switching cost).
 
If NVidia wins these court cases, both Samsung and Qualcomm will either be forced to stop making gpu's for mobile phones (a market with 0 market share from NVidia), or they will have to pay royalties/licensing. Either way, consumers lose.
 
I really do not understand, why anyone, who is NOT an NVidia shareholder, would hope for NVidia to win this.
 
Also bear in mind, that this entire case started with NVidia's BS patent trolling Kepler licensing strategy, trying to force itself on the entire ARM eco system. With a monumental 0 companies buying their BS, NVidia has now gone nuclear on the ARM eco systems: http://semiaccurate.com/2015/01/20/two-new-twists-nvidia-patent-trolling-kepler-license-scheme/
 
Ironically NVidia licenses IP from ARM, which is the only reason they didn't sue ARM. It makes sense, but considering that Samsung and Qualcomm is being sued for their own ARM based designs, this is essentially an attack by proxy on ARM as well.
 
This is a patent war between NVidia and ARM, not NVidia and Samsung per se.

This NEVER happened, look up what Nvidia is suing Samsung and Qualcomm over. They don't want them to make and graphics processors at all, because Nvidia claims it exclusively owns the rights to make graphics processing units. I'm not even making this up, please look it up.

This topic is horribly misleading. Samsung AND Qualcomm which is also involved in this did not use any of Nvidia's IP. Nvidia is suing Samsung over fundamental graphics building blocks necessary for any GPU, including AMD's ARM's and Intel's GPUs.  This is the worst kind of patent trolling.

This is from Nvidia's official website !
http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2014/09/04/nvidia-launches-patent-suits/

Nvidia invented NONE of these, these are industry standard fundamental graphics building blocks. They're basically suing Samsung and Qualcomm for building any sort of graphics processor at all ! In fact by this logic AMD can sue Nvidia for the exact same things, since AMD's graphics division which is based on ATi was founded 7 years before Nvidia's inception. That's seven long years of patent filings for fundamental graphics IP. It's like claiming to have patented the letter N in the English language and then suing Samsung and Qualcomm specifically for using it.

There's something deeply disturbing about what Nvidia is doing and people need to know the facts.

The GPU performance of Carrizo has been revealed and it's three times faster than Intel's fastest iGPU on the market. It's as fast as an R7 265 / GTX 660 / PS4 .
 

And that is mighty impressive. The performance gains shown suggest a doubling in GPU IPC over Kaveri, this is suspected to be the direct result of HSA compliance. Not having to copy around the data back and forth between the CPU and GPu to achieve a common task could prove miraculous.

The R9 390X has been confirmed to be shipping with a liquid cooler from Cooler master. The new card will feature a similar liquid cooling setup to the R9 295X2.

 

 
  leaked specifications :

"Based on these alleged specifications we can make preliminary conclusions about performance. Although please keep in mind that I’ve only taken into account performance scaling based on the SP count. So these estimations do not take into account any possible architectural improvements or the new stacked memory sub-system. Assumed clock speed for the R9 390X is 1020Mhz based on what we’ve seen from the R9 295X. Although I’d expect the card will feature even higher clock speeds considering the huge thermal headroom enabled by the liquid cooling system."

In the video AMD shows, an unknown green company coming up with its own version of the fixer. Let's just say it doesn't go well. And at the end AMD leaves a brutal jab at the recent GTX 970 controversy.

How is it pathetic? You cannot joke around anymore? 

That was fun!

I have to say...they're amount of troll do make me want to switch.
 
 
Love a good trolling.

"With 4gb. No really" hahahahahahaha

This is gonna be good.

Enjoy or not , heh
 

Oh my god that was soooooo funny. ohmygodohmygod! :lol:
