Teraflops and CUs?

[zer0synd1cate]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but here goes.

 

 I got into a debate with someone claiming the GPU inside the new Xbox will be more powerful than a RTX 2080 Super, and I have literally no way to disprove them, or prove myself, because the only info I can find on the GPU inside the new Xbox is CUs and Teraflops. I have been in the PC gaming community for a while now, and the only time I have ever heard the term Teraflop and CU is in this debate, and maybe a video I saw a few years ago. I have no knowledge on Teraflops, and thus, no way to compare these two GPUs. Does anyone have an idea about this? Thanks in advance.

Honestly just ignore him. let him (or her) believe what he wants to believe, it doesn't really affect you.

Teraflops is a measure of compute performance, it doesn't translate to gaming performance directly but it's usually close.

He could be right but you can't really compare gaming performance between 2 difference architectures just by using TFlops.

 

Radeon VII = 14.7 TFlops@1800mhz
5700 XT = 10.2 TFlops@2000mhz

2070 Super = 10.2 TFlops@2000mhz

2080 Super = 12.2 Tflops@2000mhz

 

We don't know how much RDNA2 IPC improve over RDNA, if there is no improvement then it could be on par with 2080S at best.

WAIT a second.

 

 

 

 

-Teraflop are floating point calculations, but you need to specifie if are in double precision or single precision to be sure what you are get in terms of raw performance.

 

-rtx 2080 is 16 teraflops and the series x apu is 12 -9teraflops , aprox.

 

-they are different things, an APU cpu+gpu in die VS pure gpu. Is no fair to compare.

 

-Optimization is different too, series x is better optimized vs a comparable windows machine. an xbox 360 can run rise of the tomb rider 30 fps with no problem because use DX9+++++++ optimized for an power pc cpu from 2005 tricore and a "radeon 2900 pro".

 

-flops are raw performance in floating poin calculations, in single precision is one behavior of performance and double precision is another different performance.

 

-Sadly for pc gamers overhead of cpu will be the main disadvantage 4 ever. And we are Directx level dependand to get a decent performance, console games are more free to use the twaeks they need to fit thhe game to the console and get the precious 30 fps.
