@@vekazu_is_great_guy They use a special APU, sometimes described as an SoC, for the PS5. It's pretty much the same story for the XBOX Series X. I'm sure there are differences as these are tailor made by AMD for these consoles. Mobile versions of these have never been released, in part due to the high (for mobile) power requirements. I suppose they'd eat into GPU sales if they were were released for desktops. Though, the current version remains on Zen 2 for the CPU architecture. A Zen 4 version would be nice, with RDN 3.5. We are to dream.

[@RAM_845]

ANy of you who are old enough to remember when GPU's were integrated to the motherboard? Nvidia Nforce? If I recall that was the southbridge chipset...where the northbridge catered for RAM usb etc.

[@herobrinecyberdemon8104]

That was simply the evolution of iGPUs before the northbridge got integrated in the CPU. There's a difference between iGPU and dGPU. iGPUs don't have their own memory bus and were constrained by the memory controller of the chipset (or CPU for K8 to K10 AMD CPUs), while dGPUs have their own memory bus and memory, even if there were always low-end cards that were really barely better than ATI integrated graphics - intel's integrated graphics were absolute crap before they integrated the northbridge in the CPU aka the first gen core CPU, as they updated their graphics architecture to be finally able to cover generic media operating tasks the need of bottom range GPUs fell off, that's why AMD isn't selling such anymore, plus the fact AMD was already releasing APUs with decent capabilities. Now the Strix Halo is a chip that is worthy of being considered a replacement of more budget oriented CPUs as this thing has a massive size - we've never had APUs with such GPU proportions, what's left for intel styled integrated graphics that are meant for generic tasks. Now the memory bus is still shared, but 256 bit bus - the 7600 has a 128bit bus, the 6700XT has a 192bit one. Now the memory will be slower and shared for both CPU and GPU - so the overall performance slightly so, it's meant for notebooks after all - but that still gives it serious capabilities. Now to break some illusions - it will be quite expensive simply because a chip of such size + the needed system that would likely feature quad channel memory design will demand resources and be more bulky aswell. Still this should be way more flexible than existing solutions, another go for AMD to push Nvidia and intel out of their mobile/embedded market as the latter can't offer such combined solutions. Still we are about to see the usual "rebates" by the traditional monopolists to retain their spot in the market and not allow AMD to return their investments.

That was the end for Nvidia chipsets and integrated graphics - AMD kept the northbridge for AM3+ so an Nvidia chipset would've been possible, but demand for Nvidia chipsets was mostly on the intel front, knowing intel doesn't make crappy CPUs only. Intel silently damaged Nvidia back then, though it's interesting how those two monopolists would play it now, knowing Nvidia is the only major chip company in the US that didn't fall into losses cause of the crashing of the chip market.

Exactly my thoughts, but the leaked benchmarks, if true, are full fps video game scenarios, not just math equations. I imagine to achieve these results some expensive system ram will be needed. It's perfect for someone like myself who is a casual gamer. I don't want an external graphics card. I want a system that works for indy games now, and then 5-15 years later it gets reused into a media center PC giving it a 30+ year lifespan. A computer that I can use for most of my life without any downsides. That's an amazing value proposition. The last time we had value like that was the Sandy Bridge 2nd i-series CPUs and the Nvidia 10 series. Once every decade or so a really good deal appears, as long as it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Depends. The cost of moving data between RAM and VRAM is lower when VRAM is where the RAM is, and if those chips use unified memory (meaning CPU and GPU access the same memory directly, with no need to move anything anywhere at all) then it could be a serious performance booster. Moving data between RAM and VRAM in general is expensive

I can't wait for Strix Halo to launch. I want to buy a mini PC with it ☺️

[@owlon225]

I would love an APU like that one. I wonder how they would price them. Imagine getting 16 Cores and 4060ti performance for maybe ~600$. That will enable monster compact form 1000$ gaming PC's

[@JustMyFish]

Cores are for multitasking not gaming.

[@owlon225]

@@JustMyFish and?

[@newstodayyt1]

And after thar we need to for mobile SoCs to outpower desktop parts

strix halo: usb4 & low power ddr5 ? X ? 8533mhz native support or over clocked? REALLY COOL IS THE 256BIT L1 CACHE THIS IS A GREAT PERFWATT JUMP...was expecting to see 512bit to 1024bit given the drop to the next size below nanometers

[@tech4u2022]

Depending on the price i would certainly go for this APU over anything else on the market right now !

[@scottcresswell2481]

ABOUT TIME! And I HOPE it great so more people et into pc gaming :)

[@gatitomono47f77]

at this point when I'll have money to assemble my pc I ain't even gonna have to by a gpu and will buy an apu if those of ryzen are worth it

[@bricefleckenstein9666]

For the number of cores, the TDP is no shock.

[@shockle28]

Almost 4 minutes of a 7 minute video was an ad 🤦‍♂️

[@Kneedragon1962]

So, if Strix Halo comes with a full 16 cores & decent clocks, then what's my case for buying a GPU? I'm not a gamer. I have an old i7 6700 + GTX-750-Ti. Under Linux. If a the Strix can match or better the performance of this decade old GPU and run a pair of 1080 monitors, under Linux, as well as or better than the old nVidia junk, then I simply don't have to buy a GPU. I might have to do a bit of careful shopping for video cables that would suit, though ... but that's still going to be a whole lot cheaper than buying a low end RDNA card.

[@arenzricodexd4409]

Then just buy one of those ryzen that already come with basic igpu?

[@ArturSobkow]

That would make laptopa with affordable possible and i would not be overheating coz of 2 chips inside small box

[@Sg190th]

This might be a game changer. Budget ballers might go nuts.

[@firefreezer3165]

I think these leaks are from something they are working on for new console like next gen PS or Xbox

[@marshabrightly1307]

WOW...it's crazy , so basically they use LPDDR5X as VRAM ?? does it mean that they bring "Real GPU" into APU ???

Flexispot or other manufacturers _need_ to start making copper-topped, glass-topped, or stainless steel layered desks. Eventually, these wooden desks crack, corrode, and then house microorganisms. If the work-at-home era didn't compel corporations to design desks with more resilient materials, what will?

If that APU performance matches a RTX 4070m laptop gpu's performance you can begin to imagine how much thinner and lighter amd laptops in the future can be going forward. There won't even be a need for a external gpu if you are getting that much performance from the apu.

[@herobrinecyberdemon8104]

The TDP was written - it can boost above the point at which some smaller notebook systems are rated. Still with everything in placed in one chip package made by a single manufacturer with the power optimizing features all working cause this is the best scenario for them it should be able to offer more flexibility to notebook designers, there should be a noticeable drop in price for the comparable performance too even if you consider the fact that this is a 9945HX with a massive iGPU.

[@natea4158]

fake or clickbait title. there is no ryzen integrated graphics able to overtake any rtx 4000 series gpu that exist. even "rumors" of parts coming in the "future" just barely have it matching 1 or 2 of the lowest cards, and are from sources that are known to either be wrong or purposely inflate, or claims made from a source based on very specific things that end up not reflecting reality which will just annoy people when they realize it. at best one could say "future integrated graphics from amd could potentially eventually surpass a rtx 4000 series card one day", but really, everybody already knows this and is only a matter of time, just a question of when...

For Laptops this APU inside the chips would be geat more space for Cooling Yes i know Laptops are lets say special but we should help to improve the things we dont like
