The most enabled design focuses on FP64\Double Precision, while the others eliminate the FP64 die-space for more practical, mainstream applications." Which of these had more success for "NVidia has one mainstream architecture with three distinctly different GPU dies. They went back to compute oriented in the 7xxx series. They tried the gaming only route with the 6xxx series. Every pre-Fury GPU incarnation focused too much on professional applications than they should have." BurntMyBacon - Tuesday, Novemlink "At the end of the day, is AMD making GPU's for gaming or GPU's for floating point\double precision professional "The answer is " Fury is the only card that is truly built for gaming, but I don't see any sub-$400 Fury cards, so it's mostly irrelevant since the vast majority (90%) of GPU sales are in the $100-$300 range.Obviously I am not a chip designer or any sort of expert in this area so please forgive my lack of total knowledge and therefore the reason for me asking in hopes of someone with greater knowledge on the subject educating myself and the many others interested. I bring this up because so many criticize AMD for being "inefficient" in terms of power consumption but if AMD did the same thing would they not see similar results? Or am I simply wrong in my assumption? I do believe AMD may not be able to do this currently due to the way their hardware and architecture is configured for GCN but I may be wrong about that as well, since I believe their 32 bit and 64 bit "blocks" are "coupled" together. Nvidia seems to recommend Titan X for single precision but Titan Z for DP workloads. SunnyNW - Monday, Novemlink To my understanding, the most significant reason for the decreased power consumption of Maxwell 2 cards ( the 950-60-70 etc.) was due to the lack of certain hardware in the chips themselves specifically pertaining to double precision.Finally, we’re also unable to include compute benchmarks for R9 380X at reference clocks, as AMD’s drivers do not honor underclocking options with OpenCL programs. As a result we’re unable to benchmark Far Cry 4 on the 380X at this time. Meanwhile AMD’s launch drivers for the R9 380X, Catalyst 15.11.1 Beta, are unfortunately not as solid as we’d like to see, as they have a repeatable issue with Far Cry 4 that causes it to crash with various AMD cards, including the R9 380X. For the review of the R9 380X we’ve had to make a few accommodations to our GPU testing protocol since our last major video card review, which we'd like to note.Ĭivilization: Beyond Earth has been deprecated, as the Rising Tide update has removed the built-in “lategameview” benchmark.
