Hot Damn

[delet my acc pls]

Seems nice, but when?

Also the name is weird.

[EChondo]

Shots fired!

Heterogenous queuing has nothing to do with the refresh rate of a monitor & more with the distribution of tasks between CPU & GPU cores on an APU.
Although AMD does have a technology coming called Double Sync...but more on that later.

That's great but I don't see how this is a competitor to G-sync.

[jonasa97]

Dayum, GPU Emancipation declaration right there.

[atrash]

Will it cost any more money other than getting a new graphics card? Does it involve buying a new monitor?

I think its related to the catalyst name as you can get heterogeneous catalysts maybe they just like naming things after stuff in chemistry.

That guy who wrote the article is a moron...i'm sorry.

[Tigerbomb8]

I dont know what article you guy read but this has nothing to do with g-sync

It isn't a competitor to G-Sync.

[Spannerhands]

So basically rather than inventing a board to be inserted into a monitor to correct errors generated, the have decided to correct the route cause of the problem... intresting....

I honestly have no freaking idea on how this is supposed to compete or even compare to G-Sync. 

 

With the idea of the co-processor I'm pretty sure NV's future GPUs (can't remember whether it was Maxwell or Volta) was going to address this issue by having an ARM processor run side by side with the GPU and CPU so it can delegate commands without compromising performance on other areas.

Its Maxwell thats going to have the ARM core integrated onto the card.

[Eroda]

And Volta has the Stacked dRam

[Warcony]

Lol at that article and double lol at the comments on the article hating on Nvidia and saying they are gonna go out of business.

PEW PEW PEWWWWW

How ANYONE got G-Sync out of this, is beyond me.

 

Lets break it down, G-Sync is about the communications between the Monitor and the GPU. It allows the GPU to drive the monitor so to speak, instead of the monitor driving the GPU.

 

This is about the communications between an Application and the CPU and GPU. Now the problem with this is what? Well, it means a step of programming on a select set of products. I honestly think this is more of a Mantle thing, then anything "new". Only time will tell if it catches on, and what the benefits are. There are always going to be bottlenecks in code, no matter what you do.

To be fair he is quoting the author

I mean, in fairness to him the articles headline SAYS this is a counter to G-Sync. It's not, obviously, but he got his title from the article title.

Awesome stuff! Really enticing me to come back to AMD. Whenever I buy components I buy whatever is best for my money at the time.
