Maybe they should hurry up and fix Zenbleed first.

phx ,

Fixes have been added at a kernel level for many OS’s, but microcode is still forthcoming for many models. It sounds like they’ve got it out for the EPYC 7002 (server) chips first - which makes sense as they’re likely running VMs which may be internet exposed - and most of the rest are expected between Oct - Dec

TWeaK ,

Yeah, I’m aware of their roadmap. Most desktop CPUs are targeted for December 2023. However then it’s up to motherboard manufacturers to incoporate and issue a BIOS update.

You're aware the team working on that is almost certainly not the same team working on this, correct?

TWeaK ,

Yup, just having a moan, and also bringing it up because it feels like it should be more widely known about (along with Intel’s similar issue).

Vilian ,

it’s already fixed, and merged in the linux kernel, they can’t do more than that

TheRealKuni ,

I have a feeling the team finalizing the launch of new Radeon cards have nothing to do with the team fixing Zenbleed.

They desperately need to include hardware dedicated to real time AI upscaling.

AMD simply doesn’t have the R&D capability to overtake NVIDIA on the technology front right now. When developing Ryzen, they took advantage of Intel getting complacent on all fronts. AMD also had Jim Keller in laying the groundwork for Zen architecture.

However with NVIDIA, even though the consumer side offering has been underwhelming, they still kept going full throttle on the development of their enterprise parts. So if AMD ever got close enough on the performance side, NVIDIA only need to trickle down their chip design from enterprise/HPC to the consumer side.

So, if AMD really want to take market share from NVIDIA on the consumer front, they’ll need to undercut on pricing real hard. Like offering 80%-90% of the performance for 60% of the price. But from what I’ve seen from AMD behavior for the 7900XTX release, they’re content with the status quo as it is.

The only wildcard in GPU space right now is Intel. I sincerely hope they can light a fire on AMD and NVIDIA asses and start a performance wars that we’ve enjoyed in CPU space since Zen 2 got released.

Nvidia just has been the dominant player in workstation GPUs for so long that it’s almost impossible to see AMD catching up. The hardware is one thing, but I don’t see AMD closing the gap even if they had a GPU that could perform as well as Nvidia’s. Just look at some of the benchmarks on stuff like blender and unreal engine. And that’s not to mention all of the work that’s gone on for optimizing ML and deep learning models for CUDA.

I won’t pretend like I’m any sort of expert on GPUs, but I feel that Intel and AMD need to team up to create some standard software implementation for AI/ML, and then support it instead of just relying on open source (like with Pytorch and ROCm)

They already have some matrix accelerators in RDNA3 GPUs. As for if they’ll be used for something like FSR3 nobody knows.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Scott Herkelman, AMD’s senior vice president, says in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that the Radeon team will make some “major product announcements” at Gamescom (via VideoCardz).

While Herkelman didn’t specify what those “major” announcements could be, AMD is due to launch new Radeon RX 7000-series graphics cards sometime this year.

During an earnings call earlier this month, AMD CEO Lisa Su said the company will reveal “enthusiast-class Radeon 7000 series cards in the third quarter” of 2023.

We may have already gotten an early glimpse at one of AMD’s upcoming graphics cards, as a now-removed product listing on PowerColor briefly showed the images and specs belonging to an RX 7800 XT Red Devil chip.

Aside from the launch of new GPUs, AMD is also expected to release FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3), the latest iteration of the company’s upscaling technology.

Rumors suggest that the launch of FSR 3 will take place around the same time as the release of Starfield, which comes out on PC and Xbox on September 6th.
