What are you going to do when AMD goes bankrupt? Personally I'm gonna throw a big party, it's going to be epic.
>>
It will never go bankrupt, they will sell the company long before that
>>
I've been told AMD is going bankrupt for 10 years.
>>
>>55997479
Wasnt there rumors that Samsung was going to buy them?

I think AMD is just incompetent to be honest. Nvidia and Intel seem to be true gypsies.

Why?
Are you a major Nvidia/Intel shareholder?
If so >>>/biz/
>>
>>55997454
Another GPU Thread.
>>
>>55997669
Because Nvidia totally had DX12 support, which ended up being 'can run DX12, no more.'

Even then being happy for a monopoly is dumb.
Nvidia would just sell x50 cards for $300 and beyond for MLG FTW FE editions and Intel would sell you more expensive CPUs that have a 1% gain over last gen for $50 more.
>>
>>55997494
It might be real this time. According to their balance sheet they will be completely out of money in about 3 years.
>>
>>55997653
Intel already has monopoly. AMD hasn't deleivered even a barely competing prudict since phemon 2 and even then nehalem was smoking it. If AMD goes bankrupt Intel will have to renegotiate the x86 license agreement and allow it to be transferred to big comapny like samsung or face antitrust laws. AMD dying will bring back healthy comeptition. Intel is completely OK with current AMD and they are the least one which wants to see them go bankrupt.
>>
>>55997669
AMD has done very little lying.
Compared to nvidia at least.

You have to understand that every piece of information about a product that comes out of nvidia or AMD is a lie.

>transferring x86 license
hahaha, oh wow

it's specifically a nontransferable license, if they get bought, it's over

IIRC the only other company still in business who is in posession of an x86 license is VIA
>>
>>55997831
>Zen will come out to be OK and a new Fury line up will be able to compete with NVidia
>>
>>55997840
They WILL be forced to give license to another comapny or get fucked by antitrust alws, retard.
>>
>>55997831
Even if they don't, they still won't go bankrupt.
>>
>>55997866
They probably will desu senpai. Their financials are awful.
>>
>>55997887
Both Summit Ridge and Fury 2 aren't high volume products, they won't go bankrupt because of them.
They might go bankrupt if their APU, custom sillicon and embeded line stop selling.
>>
>>55997887
Intel won't let them die.
>>
This won't happen. Even if appears that they're about to collapse, Intel is going to inject money on them just to keep the token competition.
>>
>>55997863
VIA already has one, and no antitrust law can force you to create competition out of thin air if your competitors go bankrupt.
the laws are there to make sure you don't abuse your powers as market leader to fuck your customers, but if your competition goes bankrupt because they can't keep up, that's fair game.

and who is even this other company you're talking about? who would want to enter the x86 market with zero experience in making x86 CPUs?
>>
>>55997887
They have a new line of consoles for MS and Sony to make too.
>>
>>55997964
>antitrust law can force you to create competition out of thin air if your competitors go bankrupt.
>and who is even this other company you're talking about?
NVidia wanted to enter the x86 market for a long time.
>>
>>55997964
/v/ babies are retarded and think qualcomm and samsung are gonna make them
>>
>>55998011
I'm not so sure they would do it. They're too invested in ARM now and going against Intel would be no easy feat.
>>
>>55997964
>VIA already has one
Didn't their license only cover x86 and no AMD64?
Didn't they lose the license but kept making chips anyway because nobody tried to stop because

>67m loss becomes 8m loss in a quarter

was it 200m last year?
>>
>>55998036
They only invested in ARM because they did not get the x86 licence. ARM market is saturated because it's an open standard. Qualcomm, Broadcom, Samsung and fuck knows who else make ARM CPUs.
>>
Nvidiots have been telling me how AMD/ATi is dead/finished/kill for the better part of the last decade.
Maybe the 2000th time is the charm
>>
>>55998058
I don't think they lost the license. And about AMD64, their Eden CPUs are x86-64.
>>
>>55998126
ARM is the opposite of open. Only ARM Holdings is allowed to develop the architecture, and then licenses it to whoever wants to build it.

QCOmM, Samsung, etc, all need to pay ARM.

neither did Intel.
6 years of shrinking good old Sandy bridge with miniscule performance increse.

If Zen doesn't fly Intel just won't invest into RND for a new architecture, thaey won't need to.

Sub i3 price range AMD dominates.
>>
>>55998213
>>People welcoming loss of competition, loss of reasoning for Intel/Nvidia to advance their own technology

Because it will not mean the loss of competition. The antitrust laws will force Intel to sell x86 licence to someone. And Intel will start making dGPUs.

AMD isn't going to suddenly implode anytime soon - the absolute earliest is 2020 (thats when the majority of their debt is due) and given how close that is if the company was in real dangers there would be serious panic during investor meetings. Given AMD has recently acquired some very nice deals for their chips (many high volume contracts, even if the margins are low) ensures them a reliable income for quite a few years.

In fact it is because of these contracts their stock price has increased rather dramatically in the last 6 months.

Literally ain't going to happen. If they raise price to high people simply ain't gonna buy it or will find a new hobby altogether. If anything world might be a better place as death of AMD will suddenly turn millions of PC owner into poorfags that can't afford upgrading and some of them might actually have a social life again. But let's be honest it ain't going to happen. High end gaming rigs aren't necessity and you can only raise the price so high before people show you the middle finger. Nvidia with monopoly has no reason to alienate owners as they can simply reach everyone by releasing a variety of products in every price range cuz it would be risk free. But hey at the end of the day projecting is the only thing AMD shills know how to do.

Are you somehow implying that ASUS exclusively uses bad AMD chips?

>>56001727

Given the source doesn't specify how the card failed, merely that it did asus' shitty cooler (particularly for hawaii) is the most likely candidate.
>>
>>55997454
If AMD goes bankrupt you can expect to pay more for your intel and nvidia products.
No competition is bad for the consumer.
>>
>>56001759
What competition? Intel and nvidia own the market.
>>
>>56001749
But that doesn't make any sense, considering Nvidia chips has run hotter than AMD since the 5000 series. If it were the cooler causing these failures we'd see more Nvidia chips fail than AMD.

>Next year about to re-enter markets they've left with lots of hype behind them
Sorry to break this to you kiddo, but AMD isn't going anywhere and believe they are is ether being uninformed or retarded. Also:

Only reason I can see anyone wanting that is if they own a good amount of stock in Intel or Nvidia.

The only chip which ran hotter than amd was fermi, retard.

> considering Nvidia chips has run hotter than AMD since the 5000

Kepler thermally throttles at 83c - hawaii goes all the way to 95c (plus hawaii tends to run at a higher voltage). These factors combiend with asus generally using a custom pcb arel ikely factors into the high failure rate of their cards. However without knowing more about the test methodology we cannot say for certain.

tl;dr that sauce is shit as its not verified by anyone else.
>>
>>56001727
>Thinks the chip is the only thing that can break on a graphics card
When a GPU breaks it's generally something else than the chip itself and if the chip dies it's usually because something else died and took it with it.

>>
>>56001968
There are tons of AMD card failures, just look at their forums. Basically AMD cards are made with cheap unstable parts that fail incredibly often.

Even worse, here are the results from Puget's latest test:

"in 2015 NVIDIA GeForce cards only had an overall failure rate of 1.64% (down from 2.34% last year) versus AMD Radeon cards which had an overall failure rate of 10.2% (which is actually much better than the 17.9% we saw last year)"

>>56002092
we all know Zen is just going to be a shittier Haswell. It takes AMD years just to catch up with the competition. The RX480 was just a fucking worse GTX 970.

Just let AMD go bankrupt, change is good for the market. Someone else will fill their shoes or we'll just move on to a new architecture.

Have you looked at high performance arm chips? I'm not talking about your puny tablet or phone chip, I'm talking AMD A1100 series and the cavium chips. There's no gain over modern x86. They actually perform worse at the same power consumption.
>>
>>56002334
Licensings the only real issue, and Intel once almost sold the x86 license to a random no-name Chink company
http://wccftech.com/intel-x86-isa-license-spreadtrum/

you have to realize AMD is just that bad and Intel is willing to look for an actual competitor.
>>
>>56002337
My point is that all computing does not rely on x86 anymore. There are alternatives in widespread use available to consumers, which means there is not monopoly. Microsoft released an ARM based OS and they can do it again.

Milking customers for the best product is not anti-competitive, it's the exact opposite - it opens the door for lesser products to gain market share.
>>

Even when I got an Intel/Nvidia pc, I do wish AMD to realy become the powerhouse they where with the Athlon 64 and the old ATI Radeon 9xxx cards so they can fight the prices down.

If the world ends up with just Intel and Nvidia, the prices will skyrocket far more than they do now.

970 still beat anything AMD produced that generation in price/performance, has the highest marketshare of any GPU, and was never hindered by the vram.

but of course AMDfags have to go on about
>MOOAR VRAM!!!
>MOAR CORES!!!
>MOAR SHADER UNITS!!!
>MOAR CLOCKSPEED!!!

>>56002442
You're missing the point, that doesn't mean they didn't lie to you.
>>
>>56002379
Wtf, that's actually pretty messed up. No wonder there are only two major players in the cpu world, they control what companies can and cannot manufacture amd64 and x86_64 cpu's >_>
>>
>>56002454
They lied but it was still the best price/performance GPU in generations, so who gives a fuck?

AMD lies all the fucking time, anytime you expect anything from them to be good you're in for a surprise. Can't wait to see how Zen meets the "Haswell performance" expectation.

Won't bother to keep giving you (You)s, saged and hidden. Also, >>>/v/

This entire thread is ignoring the fact that AMD won't die simply because of the console market. As long as AMD continues to design APUs, they won't go anywhere. They might exit the CPU market if Zen flops, but they won't go bankrupt.
>>
>>56002545
Nintendo already switched to Nvidia's superior Tegra chips.

A fucking ARM chip can beat AMD in console performance, without setting your house on fire.
>>
>>56002545
They would have to completely jetison their desktop GPUs and CPUs in order to stay afloat.
>>
>>56002540
>its okay when AMD tells me theyre gonna make a good product when all they produce is shit
>>
>>56002545
They're losing money every quarter for 3+ years (except for last q they basically broke even due to a one time licensing fee they received). Custom chips is their only profitable business but it doesn't appear to be scalable and the rest of the company loses much more than that division makes in profit.

BTW both Sony and Microsoft gaming divisions aren't doing well themselves, constant speculation they will be shuttered year after year.
>>
>>56001280
True, however the price/performance ratio of Nvidia cards would decrease without any other competition, which is still a negative no matter by how much.
>>
>>56003479
My feeling is the sooner AMD goes bankrupt, the sooner viable companies can pick up their tech and run with it. AMD as it stands now is too debt ridden (all of that started with their ATI acquisition, btw) to be a viable competitor to nVidia or Intel.

And nothing of value was lost.

AMD is a token competitor that's so shit it allows Nvidia and Intel to do whatever the fuck they want and get away with it
>>
>AMD is bad and no one else is
Name one thing AMD do bad that other competitiors don't do/haven't done.

>Gimping old video cards
>Using thermal paste in high end cpus
>Lying to customers and settling on $30 payout for gtx 970
>Thermal throttle + housefires
>Make the shittiest onboard graphics known to man

AMD competitors aren't any better. AMD was chosen for the consoles after all, and butt blasted Nvidia fired back on that immediately afterwards.

Also just pointing out I think both sides are fucking trash. Been switching back and forth myself on both cpu/gpu but I only ever upgrade like twice a decade.

Iris Pro beats APUs on both performance and power consumption by a fucking mile

Tegra X1 has better than PS3 performance and wont set your house on fire.

the NX's chip is said to be at PS4 levels.

Once console manufacturers realize how great this shit is they wont need AMD's bargain bin bullshit.
>>
>>56003807
While being several times more expensive
>>
>>56003823
I thought the NX Tegra thing was a rumor, or has it been confirmed?

Also PS3 isn't a good reference console. It was powerful but fucking annoying to develop for. Nintendo has jack dick for third party developers so it'll just be the same shit released over and over like it's always been. Zelda is coming out on the Wii U as well so there's not much going for the NX.

Again, what sells is software not hardware. There's a reason PS4 > XB1 in sales at first, then XB1 caught up when people realized nothing on PS4 was good and XB1 had actual games.
>>
>>56003889
Nintendo will probably use an Nvidia chip because it's almost impossible to emulate, and their Tegra chips are a powerhouse for mobile. Even if it's a rumor, if it's supposed to be handheld, they don't really have much of a choice.

> publicly celebrating that jews will have a successful monopoly of an industry

I'm sure they will never exploit this for financial gain.
>>
>>55998097
Yup. And they've lost billions in the last few years. Seriously they are in deep deep shit and I don't see anything pulling them out.

>shittier Haswell

who cares? the difference between Haswell and Skylake is basically nothing other than integrated graphics. If AMD can put out something within 5% people will just buy that because it's going to be a fuckton cheaper. Everyone already knows Intel shit is overpriced as fuck.
>>
>>56004154
AMD offering a real 8 core with SMT and all the functionality of the Xeon series will probably force Intel to change how they sell to the consumer desktop market. It probably won't be as disruptive as people think, probably at best a new option for workstations that can use 8 cores. Although, the real killer is going to be OEM sales for their 14nm APU. We're talking about mainstream desktops shipping with a 750ti equivalent as an integrated GPU. It's almost assured Apple will be shipping all their products with them, in particular for the laptop market.
>>
>>56004154
Intel actually makes CPUs that are both cheaper and faster than AMD's right now.

Intel is literally both the performance AND price king in the CPU market.

AMD is just a complete fuck up.
>>
>>56003954
Nintendo have been super jews over emulators so I suppose that's a reasonable assumption

Yeah i read some of the proposed blueprints and it seems Tegra is the clear choice. Here's to hoping.
