Posted December 20, 2016 Quote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IGNIYbrm-g So they predictions on the GTX 1050 were right. Fingerprint scanner is on the precision line, looks like the XPS line would be getting it too. Overall, these are some nice changes and I think the wait for the refresh was well worth it. What do you guys think? One thing I'm worried about is the pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's a notebook, which you can't exactly easily upgrade parts in, especially a GPU. So I'd rather have a GPU that's build for future APIs and keeps its speed for longer than a GPU which will essentially not improve at all, or very little. If I'm spending $1400+ on a notebook I wanna make sure that investment lasts for a heck-of-a-long time. Ye ole' train Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 20, 2016 2 minutes ago, ryanthomp said: I have no idea what that is lol Mind explaining to me? It's a form of GPU acceleration for computing things that aren't graphics. Open Compute Language is what it stands for, kinda AMD's/rest-of-the-industry's version of CUDA which is an nVidia exclusive.

Posted December 20, 2016 Some of my thoughts: http://www.notebookcheck.net/XPS-15-9560-official-GTX-1050-Kaby-Lake-fingerprint-scanner-and-Windows-Hello.188069.0.html Windows Hello, fingerprint scanner: yaassss GTX 1050 should be about 50% faster than the 960m. But wait, is it a 1050 or a 1050Ti? Dell's website only says it's a GTX 1050 with 4GB of ram, but the desktop 1050 only has 2GB... so which is it? Yeah, it looks awesome, but given how buggy the XPS are... I'm kind of leaning towards a T470p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 20, 2016 3 hours ago, Pendragon said: OpenCL enterprise app acceleration. As the enterprise world is working towards full parallel computing, something that isn't via with CUDA acceleration cause nVidia -_-, OpenCL is required. So alot of the top computer scientists in the world need to run custom hardware or AMD Firepros to work on their projects through OpenCL. I met up with AJ Guilion, one of the leading computer scientists in the world working with Khronos and OpenCL, a few months back at a Khronos event (I was there for something else but the inner computer geek pulled me away), and explained to me the basics of OpenCL acceleration on FPGAs. Quite a technical conversation, not sure I have the technical know how to tell it to you (cause I'm 100% I had no idea what he was saying). You can find lots of clips on youtube if you just google AJ Guilion and listen to his OpenCL application usages.
