Lisa Su

[Edgar R. Zakarian]

She's only been CEO of AMD for about a year, and already we heard a new leap into HBM technology. (Before Nvidia did it?) And also 14nm technology on CPU's soon?

What are your thoughts?

[Jerakl]

Hbm would is only really a leap for gpus ATM.

But they did to it before Nvidia. Afaik Nvidia had it scheduled it 2 gens from now in pascal/Volta (after maxwell refresh)

[Deletive]

HBM was probably being worked on before Lisa Su took head of the company. I think she is going to be able to pull AMD up over time.

[Paralectic]

She's not really responsible for those things.

[AlwaysFSX]

Always vote watermelon, but my answer is no.

[Glenwing]

We cannot know anything yet, 1 year is far too short in this business. Things in this industry don't surface publicly until many years after they're started, anything we're seeing now was in the finishing stages already before Lisa Su took over. Any reforms she make won't be visible for another 2-3 years at a minimum, at least in terms of overall technology development.

Why would intel do it? They don't make GPUs and DDR3/4 is fine for system memory. 

 

I think that some of the stuff done by her predecessors sort of set it up for her (HBM and fury were definitely under development then). I don't really know about anything she personally has done, but I expect a comeback during her term as CEO. This vote is a fierce competition between Yes and watermelon.

Both Zen and HBM have been in the work for at least 3 years. The reason they havent released anything is they have been working on this stuff.

She just announced that they will go back to focusing on a new generation of CPU's.

That much be her idea. :lol:  :lol:

Sorry,  I've corrected it now.

I meant Nvidia, not Intel.

[Ertman]

I am going with yes, just trying to be optimisitic, but who knows if it's even too late.

[Exploded117]

Confirmed, Lisa Su is going to pull AMD into watermelons.

[Paul.Griffin]

She'll give it a good go. I'm sure she'd do better then most of us.

I think Pascal will support HBM 2 memory ...

 

I thought her name was Lisa Wu ? Edit : Nevermind ...

I don't know which arc was on track to support hbm1, it was 1 of the 2 I believe.

AMD beat them to it, so they'll probably put it on track for hbm2.

Although they still don't have an hbm1 card.

Since you're the only logical one here, what do you think of and locking the mem voltage.

>inb4 flamewar

>inb4 Nvidia fags quote me and tell me how terrible it is. If Nvidia did it you would praise them for "safeguarding" the consumer against the dangers of bricking their card by pushing the limits of new technology. You guys are such hypocrites.

I think they did the right thing because it's already High Bandwidth Memory , why do you need to push it further . Otherwise they would have faulty cards because people would push everything pass the breaking point . If it's too fast , I think it could overload the CPU and will performance diminish ... I hope next year they will shrink the processing node to 22nm or even 14 to cram more performance and efficiency into their cards ... 

 

Also we don't need it unlock yet because the Technology and Games need time to develope with the new Memory ... 

 

I actually think nVIDIA would have a hard time surpassing AMD now because AMD has had first hand on the HBM , they will learn and improve it even further with HBM 2 if they were to get their hands on . 

 

AMD will , hopefully , have better software support to ultilize HBM meory better than nVIDIA , but we will let time answer all questions . 

 

Aw gee , first time anyone complimented me , thanks , but I'm not that much of a tech guru ... So take my words with lots of salt ...

[Nowak]

I'm sure she will get AMD back on track, but it's too soon to say really.

I'm happy as long as AMD starts improving their Crossfire Profiles haha

[Lays]

I believe the engineers they were talking to about HBM on the livestream said they had been working on it for like 3 years or something like that.
