You are not a teacher schooling a boy! No reason to argue with you anymore since I know I'm right. You are now ignored.
Very interesting. Especially combined with the rumours that Sony brought their own rt technology.
Sony's solution will probably be based on whatever Khronos Group has in the pipeline.
DirectX is "co-developed" with all GPU h/w vendors which include AMD of course. That's just more marketing BS.
The hardware is the same, the way you interact with it will be different. That is called an API and what DXR is. Sony will of course have their own.
The sales numbers thread that spawned from the event was merged into this thread.
The API, yeah. Sony will have its own APIs, and RT API, for PS5, which may well involve AMD input too.
I believe I heard AMD 'and partners' will have RDNA2 products later this year. I assume that refers to PC vendor partners and RDNA2 cards.
RDNA3 is in development. Aiming for another 50% improvement in performance per watt, and new features, vs RDNA2. New node, it seems. 2021+.
Do Mod's just want chaos? No reason for them to merge it with this thread. I am not a Mod so I don't know what goes into the decision making, but seems like they like chaos and console warring. I guess some people do want to see the world burn. lol. Hopefully something good comes out so the sales talk goes away from the thread.
Holy shit at those RDNA2 increases.
Also, N7, N7P, N7+ are all 7nm. To get more specific would tie it to a manufacturer which AMD doesn't want to do.

Disaster is far too strong. It cant be a disaster when it still gets all major 3rd party titles from Ubi etc.
To be fair to the person you're quoting, you never once offered any articles/evidence that you can't while they offered evidence that you can.
So... as a third party bystander, it appears you are the wrong one (at least until you provide evidence).
That's not an attack on you, just a statement of how logical arguments work. That being said, I would really like to learn whether you can or can't, and google searching shows me that you can. Do you have something I can read that show you can't? I would like to learn more.
"We have developed all-new hardware-accelerated ray tracing as part of RDNA 2. It is a common architecture used in next-generation game consoles. With that, you will greatly simplify the content development that developers can develop for one platform and easily port it to the other.
"This will definitely help speed up the adoption.
"We also provide lower-level API support that gives more control to the developers so that they can extract more performance from the underlying hardware platform. This will help mitigate the performance concerns of ray tracing."

It means as it sounds -> We are now into more than 2GHz envelope for graphics cards, well we were sol close anyway now 2+ is really achievable soon.
Can we say the consoles were huge gets for AMD since PS4?
They can leverage that in the PC, it gives them a huge base, etc.
Honestly it's other factors, but AMD has been on a huge turnaround and consoles cant be ignored. I wonder if Nvidia is taking any note. I dont put switch in same category as PS/Xbox.

9.2 TF PS5 that everybody doubted because 36 CU's at 2 ghz was impossible confirmed...
Yeah, I thought the forum was broke, lol. Wondered why it kept putting me in this one.
Unfortunately for AMD that is required to even stay competitive against Nvidia.
This should debunk the PS5 is RDNA 1 or 1.5."We have developed all-new hardware-accelerated ray tracing as part of RDNA 2. It is a common architecture used in next-generation game consoles.

RT is clearly part of RDNA2, and thus PS5 has it too.
BTW: People really think Microarchitectures are a one day thing to do.....
It will more than likely just be a cut down version of Vulkan RT API which is being standardized right now between all h/w vendors.
Unless Sony want some very special RT API which will make cross porting hard and won't get them anything else since the h/w is the same.
I'm sure it will be syntactically, and in terms of behaviour, very similar to everything out there already, of course,
Btw it's likely PS5/Xbox Series X also use some form of AMD's Infinity Fabric tech. The way they describe it makes it seem like a perfect fit. Everything is synergized on a tremendous level.
The slide is talking about 3rd-gen Infinity architecture that'll be used in CDNA enterprise compute platforms, but the gist of it is there. This could be next-gen's real software driver.

Agree, but they should be applauded for reaching that with no node change.
There's this thing called Google. A first result you get in it on "mining bitcoins on a gpu" will do.
