new AMD GPUs, RDNA2 architecture, sounding good semiaccurate.com/2020/10/28/amd-rad…eon-6000-series-takes-the-gpu-crown

now if only they have fixed the bloody PCIe reset bug

Weirdest part is they seem to have CPU-like cache?

128MB “infinity cache”

unclear what that helps with?

128 MB cache = 64 RandomX threads, no?

MB ?

if it is similar to L3 cache

moneromooo: 128MB "infinity cache", and 16GB DDR6 video ram

Oh, nvm

RX 6800 has 60 compute units, 1 RandomX thread per compute unit should have enough cache and will probably equal to 1 ARM core in performance

<[discord] Kayla2#6505>: "now if only they have fixed the bloody PCIe reset bug" oddly enough am not experiencing it anymore on vega cards neither on ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04, like if there has been a kernel update that fixes it without me having to do anything, however was still having the issue on navi cards

if that 128MB cache is as good as it sounds, should outperform ARM too

I doubt they will have instructions for FP DIV/SQRT though

directed rounding is there, but these two will be slow

64-bit FP will be generally slow too

so let's say 50 h/s per compute unit, RX 6800 = 3000 h/s, 3 times faster than Vega 64

quite a leap in perf

all those cryin over losing GPUs will rejoice

after they sell all their old GPUs

but that crowd would have been buying the new hotness anyway
