AMD.... won?

only until terry takes over intel.

Wish amd would win so I can buy a cheap Intel cpu with over 8 cores.

>tfw sold my 2 year old R9 390 for $450

>>60889611
Damn, somebody got ripped off. I wonder if I could make a few bucks from some sucker buying my 760.
>>
>>60889678
What is mining anon?

Cute that you think that your 760 is worth anything more than two digits.
>>
>>60888372
>Reddit Pepe
Get the fuck off my board
>>
>>60889704
Shit, I'll take mid double digits for it, I was gonna just throw it out.

Wouldn't they have been better off buying a new GPU that has more life left and better performance? I'll admit I'm unfamiliar with mining.
>>
>>60889678
miners are buying AMD gpus en masse which is why they're nowhere to be found and the occasional used ones sell for ridiculous prices
>>
>>60889734
You should be able to at least fetch 50 bucks for it.
>>
>>60889736
why's that, the ammount of shaders that can be used for cracking shit?
>>
They won a few benchmarks, good luck finding AMD chips in OEM hardware however.

Hell, Intel makes so much money they can buy 100% of AMD inventory to ensure no consumer gets their hands on them.
>>
>>60889937
AMD has OEMs on their side this time. If Intel tries the shit they did last time, FTC is watching.

>Intel makes so much money they can buy 100% of AMD inventory to ensure no consumer gets their hands on them.

Not only is this saturday morning cartoon villian level logic, the FTC would again step in and stop them.

>>60889918
AMD is generally a lot of horsepower, dumb horsepower. Nvidia is much more efficient, but less. These sort of cancel eachother out, well, used to. Maybe vega will fix this.

Mining relies on a LOT of dumb tasks, what you need is raw horsepower, not efficient ones. Thus AMD.

Or that is how I was told.
>>
>>60890073
so vega will be efficient raw horse power
>>
>>60890073
/o/fag here. horsepower is an illusion. Horsepower is the byproduct of measured torque.
Horsepower = torque X RPM / 5252
>>
>>60890163
Or they managed to increase the raw horsepower and reduce power consumption.
But more efficient is probably for the better.
