AMD - The Master Plan - Part 1, History 

Yeah this is the game changer the industry needs to take. Intel doing something similar, not sure about the others though.

+AlSwegen Cheers!

+AdoredTV - Hi ya, Very interesting video, very interesting indeed. I would like to ask you a question, why are there are no Laptop video cards on general sale like there are for desktops, especially since there is such a premium for them on eBay as that is the only source, even Dell dont sell GPU's anymore for their Alienware range ? So when a perfectly working Laptop GPU fails or you want an upgrade you either have to buy a new laptop or buy from eBay ? I dont understand this situation and I don't just think it is a niche market since there are lots of Gaming Laptops these days using the MXM interface ! Many might just want to upgrade their GPU rather than just purchase a new laptop. My situation is slightly more of a pain since my Alienware M17xR3 only officially supports up to the Nvidia GTX580m although with a modded unlocked bios it is capable of using a 780m and just recently the 880m and maybe soon the 980m !

Agreed

+Joakim D Never bought an AMD/ATI card in my life, but the idea that they could go out of business scares the shit out of me. An nvidia monopoly would be a nightmare

+Joakim D AMD's R&D has will soon come to fruition. They have had an uphill battle against NVidia for a while now but they are poised to take the fight to NVidia with the expectation out of an all out war. The victor - Time will tell as the single biggest factor may be who's tech is first to fall behind for the coming years. AMD is also nearly ready to re-take some respectable market share from Intel. Decent X86/64 performance and efficiency on low to mid range CPU's. The APUs will start to garner more attention this coming generation as their GAMING performance is simply impressive for such a modest cost [VS CPU and discrete GPU]. This is just my personal belief. I have been following various tech companies, products, for several years now. I also predicted about 98% of what would happen this generation for PS4 and XB1 [No wrong predictions either]. Most of it was very easy to analyze and know [THIS console gen.]. 2016+ AMD is the Phoenix rising.

+Joakim D AMD cannot compete with NVidia anymore but there may be hope in making a CPU comeback as Intel R&D has been crippled due to diversity quotas.

+Nakor Z yes, yes they did.

+mucks Cheers bud.

+mucks An OG praising your work. High regards!

^ what this guy said

+mucks this 38 year old here is just as appreciative :)

mucks sir I am happy to meet veterans....

^^ exactly

+The Sentinel I'll let you in on that, so you can sleep. Consoles -> push for new low-level GAPI with better support for 4+ cored processors -> new processor with affordable 8 cores SKU -> APUs eating up the dGPU market from the bottom bite by bite thanks to new, more efficient graphics core (so you can cram more shader power into same watts). It really sheds new light on NVidia's attempts to get anywhere they can in addition to GPUs - mobile, automotive, HPC, neural networks. They know what's coming, and they desperately need a way out.

+Taugeshtu Most of that is true but still missing a couple of parts of the puzzle. ;)

+captainpoonslayer Cheers!

+AdoredTV please release the part 2

+AdoredTV Patiently waiting for part 2! :-)

+Joe Higgitt Lol

You can see from the branding of Xbox it's green based

Lmao!

So glad I can delete one dupe comment without losing the other

the OG xbox was nvidia based thats why

+Suraj Geddam Cheers bud!

+AdoredTV you're Scottish right? I'm studying at Edinburgh right now, your channel is helping me with the accent :D

+sinthorias Yes, though on the West Coast so it's probably quite a lot stronger accent compared to most in Edinburgh. ;)

probably, yeah - but even the one here is pretty noticeable at first, for someone coming here from Europe :D

+Paul Nick Cheers!

+Paul Nick Yeah it really is.

+Quinn Dams lol

+Quinn Dams I saw some 290Xs going for $350 on newegg. Those are great deals.

+Energy Core you can get a 390 for as low as 220 USD these days. Sure it's sale price, but whatever.

CMSonYT electronics sales are really rare in belgium... mostly because gaming and building your own pc here isn't that popular compared to like the US

+CMSonYT I'm slumming it with my 270x till Polaris comes out.

+Ustaleone Cheers lol.

I wish more people thought that. :P My name could not be more Scottish either. xD

+Joe Macdougall Tam McDoom maybe? ;D

AdoredTV Definitely that one. :P

Hey hey me too unless I win the lotto then I just go with the most powerful setup possible aha

+DJ_Snik Cheers!

+AdoredTV Cheers..

+AdoredTV "Graphic Chaps". British version of Graphic Chips? "Good day game! It would be a pleasure if you would allow me to render and display you on a ye' ol' monitor." Holy Gaben, my British impression is horrible.

+San Hydraxon I'm gonna have to say these words together so people can hear the difference lol. Maybe at 20K I'll do something like that. ;)

+AdoredTV "The official AdoredTV Rosetta Stone" :)

+Damian Bielecki Cheers!

+Damian Bielecki looks like you can start to party. At least a little bit.

Great review jaquar will only be available exclusively for consoles ?

+Ana Loveniles Not sure, though AMD will be able to use it at the low end laptop if they want to.

+DArkXi There's always red tinted contacts

+DArkXi Dang, Those would be some really pretty eyes.

Energy Core omg thanks dude ! If I'll start using them, even if my eyes will get hurt, they will still become red, it's a win win

DArkXi XD

+Aurio DK Excellent points and I agree about competition.... But Intel is already a GIANT compared to the relatively tiny NVidia. I'd rather Intel loose market share in nearly any form.

+Rixxos - Cheers!

+MrKrzys01 Cheers!

+Ian galica Cheers!

+rushdrift Cheers!

absolutely correct

+Tyler Weigand Definitely. Intel graphics are weak nVidia CPUs are not x86. AMD should develop the APU to its full potential.

+Deltaexio I heard that a big problem for apus was the sloe ddr3 memory. I also heard that AMD is planning to make apus with integrated hbm memory: that should unleash a lot of powah

Nikola Angelov Unlimited POWER!

+Deltaexio Yes! I really hope that's what happens. I could make a really small form factor build with some powerful apus!

+Lolo Anno Cheers, appreciate it!

+Brian Mulrooney Cheers, tomorrow maybe but if not definitely on Sunday.

+TrueGamer007 nvidia created a wormhole for the whole GPU community: gameworks..

+MRoesterreicher1 I agree, and the only reason they can get away with it is cause they own the majority of the market. Even more reason for AMD to provide competition.

***** yes. this video is a good one on providing that AMD has a good "backup" plan. I always thought AMD had more potential due to their CPU's

+MRoesterreicher1 And then tesselation

Ali Husain yeee

+Thaddeus Stevens Dirk was completely out of touch with reality, selling their mobile graphics to Qualcomm and giving the middle finger to the laptop market. Not sure what Ruiz' issue was. Oh wait, I remember now, he came from Motorola...

+Floris R let's get roiiight into the news!

+Floris R *hasnt eaten popcorns in... cant remember how long*

+chakra manggilingan Cheers.

+AdoredTV What do you think about Intel pulling out of the desktop market to become an internet of things company?

+Oseyeris Intel will do whatever they can to make money and the vast majority of their cash comes from PC still, so no chance of them leaving voluntarily while that's the case. They could be kicked out of it if Zen delivers though, so here's hoping as the PC market really needs a good shake.

AdoredTV I would agree with you however Intel has had a massive amount of layoffs here in Portland. There main campus is right down the road and i know a lot of people who where let go. Even the realtors in the area are talking about how Intel employees make up over 10% of the housing market here and they are preparing for this.

+Oseyeris 12,000 down from what I hear, which is a staggering amount for any company to let go. Tbh it's been coming though and Intel frequently pull the trigger on headcount in order to prevent financial losses, but never on this scale. First to go will likely be their mobile department and I believe some major scaling down of manufacturing is in order as well. Intel only ever had one plan, to remain on top in the process battle - but they ran out of money before TSMC did. Coupled with some bizarre aquisitions (McAfee for $8bn wtf was that all about, Altera doesn't look like a sound investment either), they are a company who remained ahead simply due to their enormous size. I expect a whole new world of pain for Intel over the coming 5 years as they get overtaken on process and lose a massive slice of the desktop to AMD.

+FPSNige Cheers!

+Neil Buchanan (Etny2k) Cheers bud.

+danieljharris42 I pretty much taught myself most of the stuff I know, reading books, articles, forums etc. Just a real enthusiasm for the tech basically. Work wise this pays a little but I do some consultancy as well when I get it, can help pay the bills. Cheers. ;)

+perrrry Cheers bud, yeah this one seems more popular than usual. I'm never sure lol, sometimes I think "this one sucks" or "this one isn't as good as earlier ones" but they seem popular enough. ;)

+Fan Chiu Ho Cheers!

+RedMonkey Cheers bud. Yeah there is so much going on here the hard part is figuring what to leave out. ;)

AdoredTV BTW - did your sub count just take another few K hike North over the last month? If so congrats, thoroughly deserved.

+RedMonkey Yep it's going pretty well, soon 20k!

Excellent news!

+Pan Z Yeah it's been pretty good recently, cheers bud. ;)

AdoredTV Just wondering if you'll be one of those go-to technology channels in a couple years.

+Pan Z Tbh I get a lot of views compared to many now, though obviously at one episode per week it's kind of limited. Once I get into a groove I'll get more varied content in there and then we'll see how it goes. ;)

AdoredTV Just ponder, at this rate of exponential growth, about how many subscribers you will be gaining daily a year from now. There may come a point where you gain a thousand subscribers a day

+Pan Z Nah it's actually starting to slow down a bit now - noticed it around 18K. I think there's probably a limit to these things, although it hits the spot for guys like us. ;)

+LustWisdom Cheers!

+AdoredTV I don't suppose you've done anything about the curious memory decision microsoft made @16.11 have ya lol?

+Kian Grey Cheers!

+Dargonante Cheers, we'll see lol. Right now I'm enjoying it but christ some of these are really a lot of work. Tbh I mostly hope that the material doesn't dry up as a lot of this stuff comes from memory and obviously can't last forever.

I believe you could easily expand the amount of material you can upload by diving into other components, like RAM and how this affects gaming, the way the technology is moving forward, why CAS Latency is more important now than ever, how baseline CPU Controllers affects RAM, and how RAM ultimately affects gamers. You can do these kind of videos in between your main videos. There's also SSDs, Hard Drives, SATA, SAS, AHCI, RAID. Why RAID 0 on SSDs doesn't linearly increase performance besides sequential Read/Write over SATA, the History on SATA and SAS, why don't we have Consumer SAS if it's so much better, how NVMe and XPoint will revolutionize the way we even storage our data, and how it'll basically mean the world for the war against loading screens :) Always in between main content like these videos which can make up for a Series. Also you once said Monitors aren't your strong point, is never too late to learn, we trust in you! EDIT: Bear in mind that your core audience, like me (At least I'd like to think so), is usually very interested in the technologies that AMD, Nvidia and Intel produce, which means we're more likely to have an Enthusiast mindset and RIGs, which also means we'll be showing high interest for all components that we can enjoy around our main components, CPU and GPU, if these offer any benefits, like monitors, RAM, SSDs, MOBOs, Sound cards, Peripherals, ETC... Usually, one of these components, often as important as our GPU/CPU (And even more expensive in some cases) is our monitors, which also happen to tie up with GPUs, with technologies like HDR, higher bit depth support, Adaptive Sync ETC... Just my 2 cents :D AdoredTV

+Dargonante Yeah I'll be looking at expanding into other stuff somehow, been thinking about that. GPUs are by far my forte however.

+David Kirkland Cheers.

+Larry Smith I almost ran a video of Ruby at the end. ;) My 5850 was broken so I ended up with Crossfire 5770's for a while until I got it back. I still have one here in my gf's daughters PC, running WoW pretty well lol.

+NeoVoodooChild I will consider it...cheers lol.

+ShiroiKage009 Cheers bud.

+Nicholas RF oh mine is too it just was not up to running Witcher 3 at max settings

+spoonikle Yes I know, AMD had multiple years of perf/watt and perf/$ superiority which came to a head with Cypress vs Fermi. The way it instantly switched with Kepler was proof of how much mindshare Nvidia has.

+BCNEWSVIDEO Cheers! You'll enjoy part 2 of this. ;)

+David Hyatt Cheers!

+AdoredTV 17:50 I might add to that, that those GK104's could've been further salvaged as OEM GTX 660's. GK104 wise, Nvidia had three distinct versions: the -400/355 (8x SM), the -325/300 (7x SM) and the -200 (6x SM).

+Lagittaja Yes. good point. Another comment mentioned that the PS4 and Xbox 1 are salvageable too, with 2 CUs spare. Cheers.

+Bu Jin Cheers, you'll enjoy part 2 I bet. ;)

I just finished, and I commented on that one as well. :)

+Mike Roy Yep it's the most exciting time in gaming for years tbh, I really hope they deliver at least on one front.
