Intel tries its hand at a discrete GPU again?
As you may have heard a few months ago, Intel has employed Raja Koduri, former GPU-designer at AMD’s Radeon division. Back then the statement already read: In this position, Koduri will expand Intel’s leading position in integrated graphics for the … Continue reading

FutureMark’s Time Spy: some people still don’t get it
Today I read a review of AMD’s new Radeon RX470 on Tweakers.net, by Jelle Stuip. He used Time Spy as a benchmark, and added the following description: About 3DMark Time Spy has recently been some controversy, because it is found … Continue reading

The damage that AMD marketing does
Some of you may have have seen the actions of a user that goes by the name of Redneckerz on a recent blogpost of mine. That guy posts one wall of text after the next, full of anti-nVidia rhetoric, shameless … Continue reading

The myth of HBM
It’s amazing, but AMD has done it again… They have managed to trick their customer base into believing yet another bit of nonsense about AMD’s hardware. This time it is about HBM. As we all know, AMD has traded in … Continue reading

No DX12_1 for upcoming Radeon 3xx and Fury series?
A few days ago it was confirmed that none of AMD’s current GPUs are capable of supporting the new rendering features in DirectX 12 level 12_1, namely Conservative Rasterization and Rasterizer Ordered Views. I already mentioned that back when Maxwell … Continue reading

Who was first, DirectX 12 or Mantle? nVidia or AMD?
There has been quite a bit of speculation on which API and/or which vendor was first… I will just list a number of facts, and then everyone can decide for themselves. Microsoft’s first demonstrations of working DX12 software (3DMark and … Continue reading
Independent Mantle benchmarks start to trickle in
Traditionally I like to look at the benchmarks from Anandtech’s review. And their findings fit exactly with the prediction I made earlier: a high-end setup will likely see 10-15% gain at best. The lower the graphics detail, the more Mantle … Continue reading

Legacy Catalyst driver problems with OpenGL
Because of the work I have done on the iOS and Android renderers, my OpenGL engine had to stop being dependent on GLUT. This was a good thing anyway, since GLUT is outdated, and no longer maintained, and has various … Continue reading
