So double the cache but half the memory bus... I get the feeling the lower end for RDNA 3 will be heavily gimped like RDNA 2


Silicon Lottery Announces It’s Shutting Down Business Next Month, End of An Era For Intel & AMD Pre-Binned CPU Sales!

Haven't really ever used their service because the prices were high and never really needed to run my CPU to the limit. Plus many CPUs run at their limit out of the box anyway...

Yeah, the memory bus will probably limit the potential of that chip. But we'll see.

And one of the reasons Silicon Lottery is closing is because most CPUs already run close to their limit nowadays, making their "products" less appealing.

By the wat, for those interested in VR...

Valve's Index successor rumoured to be a standalone VR headset
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/valve-deckard-standalone-VR/
Valve may have another VR headset design in the works to follow up the excellent Index, but this time it could be completely standalone. Similar to the Oculus Quest VR headsets, the Blade Runner-inspired 'Deckard' codename looks to be for a standalone option—that means it'll use its own processor, battery, and inside-out tracking solutions rather than utilising the hardware inside your PC.

Do you think they could use Steam Deck's hardware to power this VR headset?

I could see it.

I mean, it would be a good start, and they'd save some R&D costs.

Maybe steam deck 2. The first Steam Deck will be hard pressed to run any games on VR unless all you are doing is... well..... You already know...

C'mon, it's not like HL Alyx or Skyrym VR are that demanding.
