Hardware news this week covers falling RAM and SSD prices, alleged photos of the RTX 3090, TSMC's one billionth 7nm chip, the Xbox Series X SOC cost concerns, and doubler shortages. bodasactra: Jan-Feb 2020 was best prices for computer parts in recent memory. Ryzen CPUs were especially sweet, 1600AF 85, 2600X 79 (I know, right), 2700X 127, 3600 135, 3600X 150. Micro Center prices.

So when we do a CPU core and add an instruction to it, historically the power of x86 and our instruction set extensions have been that we made them available everywhere.
Except, of course, for all the chips that have certain instructions disabled due to product segmentation. That quote was a pretty bad lie.

Quick question, if DRAM, and SSD prices go down why does the GPU space unaffected, this maybe related to the VRAM chips on the GPUs. Whenever we hear DRAM prices it's always RAM and SSD affected. Why is that the GPU is unaffected?
Don't know much about economics in general.

I, for one, would actually like to applaud IBM for using a numbering scheme for product generations that is NOT a nonsensical mess driven by unfathomable marketing directives. I will gladly take '9, 10, 11' over '9, 10, 20 and 16, 30' or 'XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, 10, 10'

AVX512 can be used for loop vectorization. This means if a lot of the same instructions are to be executed on a large set of data this can potentially bring very large performance benefits to applications, which are compiled with suppport for this instruction set.

what you mean ram prices will fall? i just bought new ram! tough 80 for 2x8gb 3600mhz ram aint to bad. the site i bought them from had the exact same ram sticks but slower for the same price hell one 2666mhz one was actualy more expensive than the 3600mhz one

AVX-512 is great for a narrow set of workloads, of course the people who have workloads that profit from it love it. Coincidentally that's also one of the very few instances in which Intels Xeon still wins against Epyc, they would be crazy to give it up.

Seemed like the right week, but looks like I picked the wrong week to buy RAM.
This particular kit dropped from 2300kr to 2000kr, it's historically lowest price. But apparently that won't last long.

I actually used avx 512 (on a hpc) and performance for solving eigenvalue problems increases massively ! For usual consumers it makes no sense but in science it has a massive impact

Well, I sold my 2080 Ti s, for damn near what I paid for them two years ago
Just hope 3090 launch isn t too far off cuz the thought of being stuck on PS4 and X1 makes me
