Hello everyone I would like to propose a new motherboard standard or at least show off my idea. The easiest way to explain this is getting the GPU to be inserted similarly to the current CPU standard. For example AMD has socket am4 Intel has socket lga 1200 and GPU's would have sucket "16x chip" or something like that There are plenty of pros for doing this - speeds up the manufacturing of GPUs - more GPU cooling customization - better over all air flow ( GPU coolers just suck if it come to size to preformenc ) - no warranty voids from changing thermal paste - better for environment as we can reuse coolers - anti mining and harder to scalp ) - multiple points of failure for GPU ( current all GPU's have 1 and that's bad for GPU repair) - custom Vram - safer to transport - Easy water cooling - smaller form factor ( less material waste ) - cheaper GPU pricing There are also some cons to this solution - much more complex motherboard that requires more cooling - no ITX for factor ( MATX would be smallest but GPU'S are huge nowdays. - getting GPU manufacturers to agree on the standard. I have attached to 3d "renders" for easy understanding. ( Please understand this is my first ever 30min on 3D modelling ) huge should out to MBDesign at 3D warehouse for uploading free motherboard design for me to mess around with. motherboard explaind 1 ) RAM slots - triple channel ram going in to CPU and GPU ( 3 slots each 2 ) CPU sucket 3) the all new sucket "16x chip 4) heatsink for power delivery and chipsets, would recommend 2 small 35mm fans 5 ) PCIE slots for other accessories. 16x should still be available on ATX + size motherboards as other components require PCIe. 6 ) power delivery Please understand that this render is very generic I only made it for ease of understanding Thank you for reading let's discuss. received_1302017970199731.webp received_1098115664045047.webp

My question is how ram module frequency and timings are decided during the manufacturing process. For example there are 2 similar sticks of ram. Both are 8gb capacity, but one has a frequency of 3200mhz, and the other 4000mhz. Is it similar to CPU manufacturing where the quality of the chips decides cores and frequency? I would like to see a video on this if possible.

I fail to see why not? They could ask Intel for CPU & graphics, that may require a bigger PS5 model to deal with the heat? Or they can go to Nvidia and make a ARM 8-core with Nvidia chip? Which may require some software work but either way why not at this point when AMD & TSMC is failing to fullfill the orders? They could also go to both? One for CPU and one for GPU...

Hi guys, John here... American exiled to Russia, and I design beautiful cases for fun, and I have done so for some of the top tech companies in the world (AMD, NVidia, etc..) User @Malawar isn't happy with the existing rack mounted cases and so I am going to design and build him one... and you are going to help! <REMOVED>, I am going livestream, with user commenting, design a case for Malawar. Then I will have it built and then ship it to him. I want YOU ALL to join me, see how I do it, and perhaps you can give me input or ideas I haven't thought about. In the mean time, I will prepare some of the things I need so I don't waste any time. it's really going to be a fascinating project, because he wants a combination or a rack mount and an open frame. He specifically pointed at these open frame designs for me to draw inspiration: https://antec.com/product/case/striker-phantom.php https://cougargaming.com/products/cases/blazer-essence/ https://www.thermaltake.com/core-p3-tempered-glass-curved-edition.html I have some ideas in my head already, but I will need to get some additional clarifying information from him because we want it to be as beautiful as it is functional. And so on Sunday, we will begin laying out the dimensions, adding components, rearranging for the best location and then doing the design around that. Can a full size mobo, and graphics card fit in a 2U? 3U?Does he need full function of all the PCI slots? I don't know, we'll see! So Sunday, let's do it!

I feel like I've seen a video on this question on YouTube somewhere. Might even be Linus. But now I'm suddenly really interested in this question but can't come up with the right search terms to find the answer to my question. Also, it'd be a good idea for a video of LTT, if there isn't one already. Get the test rig, install TitanX No. 1, run Benchmarks, shut the system down for an hour, install No. 2, and so on. You know your stuff, LTT.

Well I would like to apologize for posting this topic in this forum but I have not slept since yesterday and I am very tired but I suddenly I got this itch I need to scratch (learning about the costs involved for making your own GPU production like GALAX,PALIT and other brands do ) Unfortunately (and maybe on account of being a zombie right now ) on a quick google search with relevant keywords that I could imagine I couldn't find anything ... And I decided to post here because this is the only forum I could think of that MAY have people that would know some insider stuff about those brands.. the only one that I already had an account that is so I wouldn't need to register (cause of my laziness being a full day without sleep) So yea I would like to know whats the scheme for becoming a partner of those companies in order to just get a license to manufacture graphics cards using their PCB design and GPUs (like small companies and big ones do e.g ASUS/EVGA/3dColor/Zontac/Colorful/abit etc) First of all is it possible if you have the cash to do that or is it like a closed circle where no stranger is allowed to get in(I mean in practice I suppose its illegal not to allow people getting a license while having given licenses to so many other companies) ? Is it like a fixed price followed by a fee for each sold card? or does it depend solely on volume of sales? Any rough educated guesstimates on what kind of money we are talking ? (other than " a lot") Also what would the minimum cost of making a small fab solely for constructing graphics cards be? Like the cost for the machine that solders the parts on the PCB and stuff like that. I hope that I will find some informative responses when I wake up in about~ 10 hours from now and I thank you in advance.

... I do find it interesting that Apple to reduce accuracy of its facial recognition security to ensure production can increase. I thought consistency and 'perfection' of product was paramount to ensuring the Apple experience. Does this mean reduced accuracy leading to inconsistency in security hardware/software integration [read: multiple branches of security software versions in the o/s to compensate]? Does this mean that security is now "flexible" within the o/s - capable of different versions within the same o/s version? Can this now be a backdoor to a security loophole for hacking? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-10-25/inside-apple-s-struggle-to-get-the-iphone-x-to-market-on-time

My biggest issue is Mechanical. If I go to a local milling shop, they tell me it will cost me $10 for one universal joint, and I have 12 of those, that will cost me $120, There are many such custom parts but I can't afford these prices, it will easily cost me like $300 if I got down that path. So, I went to AliExpress and placed order for all of that and everything costed $89 including 18-27 day shippings. Sadly, Coronavirus Intensified, also holidays of Lunar new year came. And due to this, Chinese government took these holidays as an advantage and completely shut everything down. And now I came to hear about 1000 cases of this Coronavirus. This stuff is getting scary. Still, I need these parts in order to make my robot, I have no other option but to wait. And Doesn't seem like my country customs will be happy to even see a Shipment coming from China at a time like this. I need a Plan C. For this I even asked Reddit for help. I need to make Universal joints, Timing pulley with tooth which can be mounted on Motor, Idler pulley with tooths, and Bearing in middle. Timing Belt, Springs, Steering mounts for wheels, Hexagonal wheel mount, Etc. Any little advice helps.

Summary Foxconn increasing their non-China manufacturing presence in order to avoid tariffs imposed on electronics originated from China. Quotes My thoughts With the increase of tensions between China and the USA, this shift of manufacturing process out of China will be a win for consumers. The cost of importing electronics from China have increase quite considerably over the last couple of years due to tit-for-tat increases in tariffs across the board. It is unlikely that these savings will be passed down to consumers in the form of lowered prices for goods, but it would reason to say that landed costs for the manufacturing to delivery will stay rather steady.

graphics card How to check graphics card manufacturing date
menyus420 posted a topic in Graphics Cards
Hi! Is there any way to check a graphics cards manufacturing date or the date of first use? I see a lot of cheap 1070-s in my area that was miner cards and are selling 30-35% lower than new price, and say that were only used for 3 monts of mining. If its true, that would be a good deal in my opinion. But here is the catch: the guy promisses 1 month warranty and says that the card has warranty, but has no paper for it. And thats where i feel that he is lieing about that 3 month mining usage. The warranty paper would show the real warranty status and the mining time (probably was bougth new for mining). Is there any way to check on that by product number or something?- 3 replies

Hey guys, I'm in a masters program for electrical engineering. As a part of a class I have to come up with project ideas for ASIC(Application specific integrated circuit) design. An ASIC could be any kind of integrated circuit to perform any task, which we would otherwise do with a controller, or a complex circuit. Basically anything that you could think of that requires a circuit to perform an application, we could make into an ASIC. A popular example around this forum might be ASICs that are used for mining cryptocurrency. I was hoping to get some inspiration /ideas for such a project. If you have any ideas that you think could be a cool invention like this, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

So from my limited understanding of processor manufacturing (correct me if I'm wrong) I understand that some processors come out with certain defects and then these are seperated into the different processor models from the types of issues they have but surely with consoles where every processor has to be the same then how do they manage to pull it off without vast expense or all of the consoles coming out with different performance? If someone has an answer that would be great

http://thenews.pl/1/12/Artykul/189573,Polish-scientists-develop-revolutionary-graphene-machine Long story short: the Polish scientists noted in the article have devised and produced a machine which can make 99.9% pure graphene sheets as large as 2500cm^2 in 4 hours each. This is just the prototype machine and will not be commercially available until mid-2015 at the earliest. Also, IBM and Samsung and their pending lawsuits can suck it. For those of you who don't know why this is amazing, graphene is one of if not the biggest contender to replace silicon after 3nm lithography. It's also 100% electrically efficient if correctly tainted by other elements. Furthermore, MIT and others have already produced basic single-core CPUs running at 400GHz and higher that barely give off heat. Once you have a pure graphene wafer base (much like a silicon wafer) it's only a matter of spraying chemicals on it and running electrical currents to line them up. With this crucial step done, the new CMOS processes are trivial to develop by comparison since the best elecrochemists in the world have been doing it for so long.

So, technically this is two questions not one - but they are, in a way, closely related: Do you think there will ever be a time when computers get to the level where their processing-speed-to-power-consumption-rate allows for the feasible combining of computers with our physical bodies/brains? I think most people are generally aware that our brains have processing capabilities that even today far outstrip anything we can produce, yet they only use power on the micro-watt and micro-voltage level in comparison to our computers using hundreds of watts of power. It's a topic than more than one sci-fi movie has touched upon - supplementing your own brain's processing capabilities with built-in computers and increasing your own memory abilities with artificial RAM and Hard Drive space (or even renting out your brains natural available memory space to private companies etc) - as well as providing interesting new ways to interact with, and control, your computer. However all that is only possible once computers reach the point where they are using roughly the same amount of electrical power as our bodies (important for good data flow rates between processor and brain - and to stop electrocution!) and the processors get closer to the comparative processing level of our brains (although that isn't strictly necessary as our brains have already shown a remarkable ability to work around such issues) I ask because I've noticed a curious trend lately of shrinking the processing technology (we're now down to 22nm levels), increasing their power-consumption efficiency to decrease total power usage - yet oddly as each new generation of processors and GPUs are released the total power demands of our computers are going UP. 10-15 years ago a 250-500W supply seemed way over the top, yet now 800W to even 1500W power units are commonplace. If processors are getting better at using LESS power to do MORE, and the same for GPUs - why is the general power demands of our computers increasing not decreasing? And does this hurt the overall idea that one day we'll have computers implanted inside us in some way? Sorry for such a long post, it's I'd be fascinated to see what your opinions are on this topic. :)

So apparently intel built manufacturing plants "fabs" collectively worth over 4 billion dollars on two separate occasions in occupied "Palestinian Territories". Some people won't care, but I find it fascinating that this is rarely (almost never) talked about. Source Detailed back story http://electronicintifada.net/content/nakba-intel-and-kiryat-gat/7625 I really hope Nvidia & AMD don't do things of this nature otherwise we won't have any viable alternatives.

SK Hynix, the world's 2nd largest memory manufacturer, operates DRAM lines in Icheon, flash-type NAND chips in Cheongju and mobile DRAMs in Wuxi, China. With the factory in Wuxi coming back up to capacity following the September fire and the addition of new factories being built in Icheon we can, I hope, look forward to a significant drop in RAM & SSD prices in the future.

A major investor group is suggesting Intel should ditch it's own manufacturing capacity and outsource it to reduce loses. This is the second time this year Intel is pushed to reconsider its IC manufacturing capacity, but this one calls for a much more affirmative action, almost going fab-less.
