    Your definition of thermal throttling is wrong. Thermal throttling is when the card drops below its BASE clock, not maximum BOOST clock. GPU boost will push a card as far as it can go with the available power until a thermal limit is reached. If it hits that thermal barrier, it will slightly decrease the boost until temps drop back in line and then boost back up again. Sounds similar to thermal throttling, but it isnt. Thats just the way GPU boost works.

    • @ricenoodles8024

      True story actually, when I was very very new into computers (im talking like 10 years old) and didnt know much about computer hardware, I thought RAM was the main component that did all the 3D and rendering work, so naturally I thought adding more to the computer would increase performance. So naturally, I thought I could just download it, as I hadnt learnt about building a PC prior to that time. Went online, downloaded a program, aaaaand it was a virus that fucked the computer.

    Measuring TDP in Watts isn't that weird since heat is measured in Joules, and Watts is defined as Joules per second. So it's a number telling you the maximum amount of heat dissipated per second.

    • @cmusic52
      @cmusic52 8 років тому +10

      and the last gen of GPUs didn't use 22nm.. they used 28nm

    • @ProfessorSlash
      @ProfessorSlash 8 років тому

      Agreed!
      Though the process of shrinking the node is kind of the same in both CPUs and GPUs, and the chips themselves are not that different, with the exception that the CPU is made to be able to handle a variety of different kinds of calculations while the GPU is made to only handle a few kinds.
      Plus, I think that most that look at this doesn't know the history of the 80286 and around that area. That 80486 DX-2 though. Beast back in its day! :D

    • @cmusic52
      @cmusic52 8 років тому

      ProfessorSlash I wanna say the main difference was Intel was the only manufacturer that could get 22nm to work well enough for production, that's what I heard, and maxwell, and AMD's last gen both are advertised as 28nm...I think too many people look solely at the node size as to how fast it'll be and they don't pay enough attention to architecture improvements cause they don't fully understand that part... not that that fact isn't kinda key to Nvidia n Intel's success... if everybody understood the architecture improvements they'd use them as well and everybody'd be as fast as them

    • @ProfessorSlash
      @ProfessorSlash 8 років тому +2

      Chris Rowlison Yeah, I've heard something about it not being stable and putting out too much heat on such a small area that lower than 28nm was a problem on GPU cores.
      I've also heard that this finFET technology that's being used is about as effective as a "normal" 22nm core. Not at all sure about the validity of those claims though.
      Yeah, about the specs. People should really look at the performance instead.
      In almost EVERY way, the RX 480 should be faster than the GTX 1060. The only thing that the latter has is more ROPs.
      This may be because Nvidia is really good at using the thing to it's theoretical max. (may be the tile based rastering that's going around)
      Either way, it'd be really interesting if the Radeon group could push the performance to an extent that Nvidia has when comparing specs to performance. Would also be great for us, consumers.

    • @joshuacook2

    I remember when I first got into computers really looking at the specs like rops, memory bandwidth, and stream processors.

      Imagine you have a gun with 500 bullets, but you suck at firing guns. Your friend has a gun with only 100 bullets, but he's trained with it longer. You have more bullets, but hes more likely to shoot down the target. Different architectures handle the specs differently and newer ones are more efficient so even if a newer card has worse Spu,Rop,or Tau specs, it could perform better.

    • @tjeulink
      @tjeulink 8 років тому +3

      shorter paths on a smaller architecture means less time for electrical currents to travel resulting in higher possible clockspeeds. there are lots of factors but this is a major one for going to a smaller architecture.

    • @PENDANTturnips
      @PENDANTturnips 8 років тому +2

      Finding a faster way of doing something. Say you want to know if 34 is divisible by 2, well you can keep subtracting 2 and see if it reaches 0, or you can check whether the last digit is even or not. This is similar to how they make architectures more efficient. They find a faster and more efficient way of doing something.
      If you want more depth than that then im afraid youll have to become an electrical engineer and programmer and join Nvidia, AMD, or Intel.
      There are other factors at play here like shorter paths between circuits like another commenter mentioned.

      It means that your card is old af. DDR2 (NOT GDDR2 because graphics memory wasn't a thing) was the standard back when ATI wasn't purchased by AMD.
      Your GPU is basically old as hell and you need to upgrade either your GPU or your entire rig.

      SysRAM: DDR1 -> DDR2 -> DDR3 -> DDR4.

    • @jukacbr

      The first two numbers indicate the generation of the card, for example:
      (The GeForce cards are very old by now and aren't really important but still they should be mentioned), I am gonna be naming one GPU from every generation, mostly the strongest, fastest ones just for the simplicity sake.
      GeForce 2, (GeForce2 Ultra)
      GeForce 3. (GeForce3 Ti500)
      GeForce 4, (GeForce4 Ti4600)
      GeForce FX, (GeForce PCX 5950)
      GeForce 6, (GeForce 6800 Ultra)
      GeForce 7, (GeForce 7950)
      GeForce 8, (GeForce 8800 Ultra)
      GeForce 9, (GeForce 9800 GTX+)
      After the GeForce 9 (2008) They started the 200 series, which used a different naming system which is still used today, and after this point they started using some new prefixes for their GPU's, like Ti and Super. The Ti prefix means that is the best version of that card, for example, you have a GTX1660 and a GTX1660Ti, the Ti version is better than the non-Ti version, you also have the Super prefix which is less common, but that's in-between the stock one and the Ti model.
      200 series, (GTX 285)
      300 series, (mostly found in laptops) (GeForce GT 340)
      400 series, (GTX480)
      500 series, (GTX590)
      600 series, (GTX690)
      700 series, (GTX780Ti) (not mentioning the TITAN cards again for simplicity sake)
      800 series (only found in laptops), (GT880M)
      900 series, (GTX980Ti)
      10 series, (GTX1080Ti)
      16 series, (GTX1660Ti)
      20 series, (RTX2080Ti)
      30 series, (RTX3090)
      40 series, (RTX4090)
      TITAN cards, they were used between the 700 series and 20 series, not really a gaming card, more of a workstation card, still can be used for gaming but will show similar performance to the high end non TITAN cards. The TITAN family includes:
      GTX Titan, released in 2013
      GTX Titan Black, released in February 2014
      GTX Titan Z, released in March 2014
      GTX Titan X, released in 2015
      Titan X (2016), released in 2016
      Titan XP, released in April 2017
      Titan V, released in December 2017
      Titan RTX, released in 2018
      The last two numbers indicate the class of the card, 50-70 being somewhere as a entry level to midrange card, 80-90 are high-end powerhouses of cards.
      For example, the GTX1050 is a entry level to a mid-range card, while the GTX1080Ti was high-end card.
      You also have the GT cards, which aren't really meant for gaming, mostly office use and web browsing, for example the GT710 or the GT1030.
      That's really that, but remember, that is only Nvidia cards, you also have AMD which has a whole different and a lot more complicated naming system.

    @exklimexklim 8 років тому +2

    You might think they're the same GPU "Die" but they're not actually the same. GPU are CLASSIFIED as ASSIC quality. Depending on its ASSIC quality will define its model, example GTX 970 vs GTX 980. ASSIC qualities will allow transistors to work better at a higher clock or higher rops, shaders "cuda", and memory bandwidth lanes.

    • @exklimexklim
      @exklimexklim 8 років тому

      If you try to install a different GPUs vBios two things can happens. Will crash or will burn out. "GTX 970 vs GTX 980" even trying to under volt or under watt or underclock. Will die or crash.

    • @exklimexklim

      Same laws applies to CPUs. But unfortunately Intel don't want to release its ASSICs
