@xreevnd @sudoingX The reason is also distance, you want the memory as close to the cores as possible, which decreases latency. But GPUs today already offload to RAM when their memory is tight

@theo How is a shitty password app the fault of the phone? I get the other points, but you frame it like Samsung is responsible for 1password.

@i2cjak You boot it from an hdd or what?

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@M0_R4_H4 @0bserver4 @chasmmmmmmmmmmm no, they said it couldn't run at all, that you needed tensor cores when you clearly don't

this is their reason why they didn't bring dlss to pascal cards

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@M0_R4_H4 @0bserver4 @chasmmmmmmmmmmm this doesn't show that at all, what is does show is that nvidia marketing bs about needing special hardware for dlss

@Sacb0y @SebAaltonen I'm talking to a bot, aren't I?

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@SebAaltonen @Sacb0y Okay, but when you're modeling 3D scenes that need that much, i feel like at that point you already have access to a render farm, but still my argument was tgat this thing in laptop form is just useless, who is making a movie scene on a laptop with a shitty small screen

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@Sacb0y @SebAaltonen So what did all these devs that need so much vram do until now? Everybody was just in their 10 fps editor? I doubt that and nobody does this on a laptop anyway, you dont develop AAA games (the only case where this could be plausible) on a laptop

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@Sacb0y @SebAaltonen This is just wrong, cuda is irrelevant for inference today and ofc it wont throttle in their demos.

And no, gamedev happens on gaming PCs and it doesn't need a lot of vram at all. How do you think they made the games until now? Every dev had 4x 4090?

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@rad_niazadeh Actually they can

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@Sacb0y @SebAaltonen Okay but i doubt anyone is actually doing this on a laptop, the use case you named to me feels like there are very few who need this.

Also isn't a macbook better in this case? Since it has much more memory badwidth. Also I think this laptop will thermal throttle badly

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@Sacb0y @SebAaltonen but you wouldn't want a shitty arm cpu for this

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@euwyn @Joer293 then you can't add 1 Tbps for each starlink just like you don't add 1 Gbps for each 1G switch ever made

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@impaladomestic @nimrag_art @bookazoid_ @cnlohr xd

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@impaladomestic @nimrag_art @bookazoid_ @cnlohr UEFI only removes legacy BIOS boot, not the 16bit mode. The CPU still resets in 16bit mode and UEFI moves it to long mode.

industry usecase is also irrelevant, they gain nothing out of removing it, in fact nobody gains anything from removing it

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@impaladomestic @nimrag_art @bookazoid_ @cnlohr but they don't make the CPUs just for you, some may have a use for this

removing it would mostly just add work across the whole ecosystem for basically no gain in anything

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@impaladomestic @nimrag_art @bookazoid_ @cnlohr there is no downside to having this, it does't slow anything down after boot

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@borrowck_novel @rfleury Dont use gemini for anything

[Vojta Humpl @Vojta_Humpl]

@buildwithrajath lying for engagement
