It could also mean NX.

 

"additional revenue from new semi-custom business"

New business, that needs a semi custom chip from amd? who could that be? I wonder.

I mean, AMD are already makeing chips for Xbox & playstation.... someone new you say? counts console makers off on fingers...

*Apple comes in and makes the Nintendo Playboxstation 360U*

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

umm.. NX?



I do not know why but everytime I read once of these threads I have the urge to get some popcorn haha. Well at least AMD has gotten more Design wins, let's hope the NX has Carrizo.

They could always ask Intel instead... They can produce powerful GPU designs (Larrabee is living proof of that) but nobody seems to be interested in them... 

No it isn't, Intel not releasing Larrabee and selling Havok to Microsoft is proof of that ...

Not releasing bloody Larrabee doesn't disprove their ability to create powerful GPUs. You literally contributed nothing to this conversation besides wasting a page...

Evaluating the value of posts contributes nothing to the thread ... 

Intel not releasing a GPU just shows that they weren't confident that it would be competitive with Nvidia or AMD ... 

Actions speak louder than words ...

Well yeah, Intel can produce competent GPUs when they put some effort but the problem is the cost of them in comparison with AMD that gets a similar result but with less money. Take for example the Broadwell family, they have more GPU power that the A10 series but they cost twice as much. If we compare the performance difference it is better to get a dedicated GPU  and a not-so powerful CPU rather than using the Broadwell CPU if you have room for it.



missing poll option of NEITHER. this may be news for you, but consoles are a small portion of their business and there is a 3rd console maker also with an upcoming release.

When they own the cash cow known as x86? Of course it will look like bread crumbs, especially since they don't have a good reputation on the dedicated GPU market, but that doesn't means they cannot because it worked and it was powerful. If they wanted, they could land a contract with MS for the next Xbox and create an enhanced version of Larrabee and nobody would care because console gamers don't look at the manufacturer and PC gamers go with what they know... 

And I contributed. Next time think twice before you post something. If you can't say anything nice, keep it out... 

There's also the Xbox One GPU and the new HD Graphics that is close when it comes to performance, so yeah, since the PS4's GPU is the most powerful AMD has created, nothing tells me Intel can't play that game as well... 

I just know I dislike AMD and I'd rather not deal with them...

If they wanted is not good enough and what people want are results, not potential ... 

@Bold Hilarious, a pot calling the kettle black ... 

The Iris Pro Graphics P580 matching the Xbox One with a vastly superior transistor technology after two years later is progress alright ... /sarcasm 

I also dislike AMD, at least their CPUs and the direction their going but it's not like we should care about whatever manufacturer Microsoft is using like you said ...



Semi-Custom business...! I hate this words xD



In Sony We Trust!
