Do AMD Ryzen 7 8700G and Ryzen 5 8600G processors have enough power in gaming to make you forget about the video card?

We adore PCs outfitted with the latest and most high-performance components, running games at the highest possible FPS in 4K resolution. However, what do you do when your gaming budget doesn’t stretch beyond the price of a second-hand flagship phone? AMD addresses this question and caters to budget-conscious gamers and casual players by introducing the 8000G Series. This series could serve as a…

AMD Ryzen 7 8700G APU Zen 4 & Polaris Wonders!

AMD Ryzen 7 8700G APU The company formidable main processing unit (APU) with Zen 4 framework and Polaris designs, the AMD Ryzen 7 processor 8700G

The conclusions of the assessments for the Ryzen 5 processor from AMD 8600G had previously revealed this morning, and now some of the most recent measurements from the Ryzen 7 8700G APU graph G have been released made public. Among AMD’s Hawk A point generation of advanced processing units (APUs), the upcoming Ryzen 7 8700G APU will represent the top of the lineup of the The AM5 series desktops APU. That is going to have an identical blend of Zen 4 and RDNA 3 cores in a single monolithic package.

Featuring 16 MB of L3 memory cache and 8 megabytes of L2 cache, the aforementioned AMD Ryzen 7 8700G APU features a total of 8 CPU cores and a total of 16 threads built onto it. It is possible to quicken the clock to 5.10 GHz from its base frequency of 4.20 GHz. A Radeon 780M based on RDNA 3 with 12 compute units and a clock speed of 2.9 GHz is included in the integrated graphics processing unit (GPU). It is anticipated that future Hawk Point APUs would have support for 64GB DDR5 modules, which will allow for a maximum of 256GB of DRAM capacity to be used on the AM5 architecture.

The study ASUS TUF Extreme X670E-PLUS wireless internet chipset with 32GB of DDR5 4800 RAM was used for the performance tests that were carried out. Because of this design, it is anticipated that the performance would be somewhat reduced. The Hawk Point APUs and the AM5 platform are both compatible with faster memory modules, which may lead to improved performance. This is made possible by the greater bandwidth that is advantageous to the integrated graphics processing unit (iGPU).

The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G “Hawk Point” APU was able to reach a performance of 35,427 points in the Vulkan benchmark, while it earned 29,244 points in the OpenCL benchmark. With the Ryzen 5 8600G equipped with the Radeon 760M integrated graphics processing unit, this results in a 15% improvement in Vulkan and an 18% increase in OpenCL. The 760M integrated graphics processing unit (iGPU) has only 8 compute units, but the AMD 780M has 12 compute units.

In spite of the fact that the 760M integrated graphics processing unit (iGPU) has faster DDR5 6000 memory, performance does not seem to rise linearly whenever there are fifty percent more cores. It would seem that this is the maximum performance that the Radeon IGPs are capable of. The results of future testing, particularly those involving overclocking, will be fascinating. However, the Meteor Lake integrated graphics processing units (iGPUs) might be improved with better quality memory configurations (LPDDR5x).

With the debut of the AM5 “Hawk Point” APUs at the end of January, it is anticipated that the RDNA 3 chips would provide increased performance for the integrated graphics processing unit (iGPU). At AMD’s next CES 2024 event, it is anticipated that further details will be discussed and revealed.

OK all that made perfect sense to a bunch of really hardcore techies who actually know what's being referred to.

So here's the simple English version.

Please note that these are examples not necessarily real events. They're based on actual things AMD and NVidia do commonly.

Computer components are often named to obfuscate what they actually are.

Nvidia graphics for example will re-badge older GPUs that do not have the latest graphics tech, and push them as new cards.

For example, the new version of DLSS relies on actual hardware so it's not really backward compatible. But you might end up getting a current gen 50xx card that's actually a 30xx gen GPU that doesn't have the hardware raytracing in that the 40xx and 50xx have.

They will also produce lower end cards with power optimised versions of the newer chipsets, but cripple them with low VRAM, so they don't cannibalise the sales of their flagship brands.

So a 5020 will have 8GB of RAM which on release is already struggling to play e.g Cyberpunk 2077 (A five year old game) at 1080p. And then there's the 5020Ti, which is more expensive. What's the difference? Who fuckin' knows‽

Because it's not always the same thing!

And some of the chips are high end chips that actually partially failed their quality control, and got a couple of cores disabled, so they can be sold as cheaper chips.

Due to the massive power draw, they also had a problem with their premium, Thousand dollar plus cards catching on fire or melting their power connectors... Or people finding out that not all the GPU cores actually work.

And they have to have such massive active cooling that it's like trying to play a game with a vacuum cleaner next to you.

AMD who owns ATI, who make CPUs and GPUs suddenly started labelling their GPUs to look like Nvidia's. But their numbering is slightly different. And they're not directly comparable.

AMD Also have a range of different tech for their CPUs. Like having something called an APU, and as pointed out:

[...] the Ryzen 7 7736U is actually one generation older than the Ryzen 5 7640U,

And yes you can go to Toms Hardware and look at a benchmark and it will not tell you important shit.

Yeah the 5030 will benchamark BIGNUM compared to the 4030... but only with DLSS 4 on, rendering at 720p and upscaled to 1440. The 5030 is maybe a 3090 with 10% nonfunctioning cores and 12GB of VRam and doesn't have the hardware that the 4030 has, or that the 5020 has. But the 5020 only has 8GB of VRAM and is benchmarking slower because it's got a memory bottleneck and also can only use PCI 5.2.

So which is actually better? Next year there's goign to be a shit-ton of Unreal 5 games which will look amazing if you have the architecture for Ray-reconstruction. But... oh no! Not every 50xx has it. The 5020 has, the 5030 doesn't, the 5040 doesn't. The 5090 does. The 5060 is an OEM only card that can barely handle Skyrim. The 5070 didn't get released but the 5070Ti did but it's a re-badged 4090 and has a lower memory bandwidth and is one PCI revision behind and uses 900w and the 5050 is made for laptops but someone's selling it as a desktop graphics card for micro-PCs. It has less graphics power than a SteamDeck but technically it can do Raytracing.

This is the point where you go 'OK, now I get it. This is Poob Has it for You, but for hardware'

why is shopping for computer shit so difficult like what the hell is 40 cunt thread chip 3000 processor with 32 florps of borps and a z12 yummy biscuits graphics drive 400102XXDRZ like ok um will it run my programmes

how to overclock your RYZEN 5 3500U for gaming

[edwinkjayesh]

MediaTek The Beast!

MediaTek made World's first 4nm chipset into the tech sector. This outperforms all the chipsets that are on current flagship phones. And its super "Faster". It's not the "Faster" we normally hear in Apple Event, this is the fastest. I already knew about this chipset - Dimensity 9000 's release, but I was confused that should I report this to you readers. But this is really innovative and even Apple haven't even came up with 4nm chipset till now. So this is a real competition and ofcourse tech is growing. So let's get into paper notes and more thoughts.

Dimensity 9000 that will power upcoming Android flagships around the world. The Dimensity 9000 can potentially outperform the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and the Exynos 2100, and even the Apple A15 and Google Tensor in some areas of performance factors. The Dimensity 9000 supports only sub-6 5G. Although MediaTek made this flagship chipset possible, they won't come to our hands right now because they are working on chipsets for Android TVs and other wearables right now.

The first 4nm chipset.

The First ARM v9 CPUs including a Cortex-X2 core at 3.05 GHz and more...

They will be packed with LPDDR5x RAM that runs at 7,500 Mbps but 6,400 Mbps chips will be supported as well.

The three Cortex-A710 middle cores are also quite powerful with 512 KB L2 caches and up to a 2.85 GHz clock similar to the Cortex-A78 middle cores at 2.8 GHz found in the Exynos 2100.

In single-core benchmarks, MediaTek claims up to a 35% system-level performance bump and up to a 10% improvement in core-level performance.

It support for Vulkan raytracing in Android and up to 180 Hz FHD+ full 10-bit HDR Adaptive displays.

It does not support hardware-accelerated ray tracing.

It sports an 18-bit HDR ISP that allows capturing HDR video on three cameras simultaneously.

It features MediaTek's 5th generation AI Processing Unit (APU).

It offer 3CC carrier aggregation up to 300 MHz of sub-6 that allows for up to 7 Gbps download speeds.

It can support Wi-Fi 6E for 6 GHz bands and 160 MHz channel bandwidth along with Bluetooth 5.3 and the complete GNSS Navigation.

Actually there are more...

I'm not going to confuse you with more paper dry details LOL, but they are really out of thoughts. Can't believe all this came into possible. So let's jump into thoughts about all this. Right now snapdragon 888 is used in most of the android flagships but all the phones differ a lot in performance and even the result we get from camera. So thats the most demerit of the android processor, the chance of utilization of all the power of the processor by the phone manufacturer is depended. And more over this chipset is not available in U.S. but don't know may be it will change. I think it should. They also promised about the battery efficiency at the same time they still provide a lot of spots for battery drain kind of performance features. Like 3 Camera recording at 4k rendering is kind of insane but still needs a lot of power and optimization. So this chipset is really innovative but don't know all the potential will be used by the smartphone manufacturers. And so happy they considered India a lot even by adding NavIC and GPS into Navigation software optimization for which i look forward more and as well as camera department too. And about the network speed, don't worry it take years for India to get 5G. But they considered us, that most of the companies don't. So these are my initial impressions but I'm not very much hyped but still this particular one can do a lot in helping a phone to cross boundaries. I'm not giving many expectation because its android we can't expect the performance that is the reason, even Snapdragon 888 's potential is not completely utilized by smartphones. So let's see how it goes and they will take time reach our hands as per the current information. So say your viewpoints too about this and this is - Edwin K Jayesh.

Legacy AMD APU Llano Laptop for Emulation tests - Part 3

A6-3420m CPU Emulation performance

I wanted to test my laptop's APU for performance test on emulation. To recap, it is AMD's first gen APU that the CPU is based on Phenom K10 CPUs, except having boost. It is unlocked so you can overclock it with a software. By default, the A6-3420m is a quad core 1.5Ghz cpu with boost to 2.4Ghz on one core. Boost was new so it helps a little. Overclocking brings some programs significant jump. From being a weak CPU to a decent one for emulation is an interesting story. The first gen Llano APUs are all unlocked, and are the few exceptions to overclock your laptop without being an actual risk. It came out in 2011, and seeing the first gen APUs in action should be surprising. They're weak from the start, but offers decent GPU performance, and I'm offering both stock and overclocked benchmarks here for each emulator.

Benchmarks:         A6-3420m 1.5Ghz-2.4Ghz and OC A6-3420m 2.3Ghz-2.8Ghz All tests are using the lowest non stutter FPS on the exact scene for a while to see how it performs and to see how to avoid sound stuttering to have smooth experience. Retroarch is on some of the benchmark and is using DX11 as main on windows, and OpenGL for Linux and for hardware rendering. Standalone hardware rendering based emulator is preferred (ex. Standalone Flycast vs Libretro's Flycast, Standalone Mupen64Plus vs Libretro Mupen64Plus). Testing a 3D emulator is best with DirectX on Windows most of the time, and OpenGL for the rest or on Linux. Mesa drivers are the fastest and offers better compatibility. GPU bottleneck is not an issue by using native resolution without any shaders or anti-aliasing applied. The lowest FPS of a heavy game is a way to see which Emulator you could generally use. Note, if a specific system hardware or emulator to emulate one most demanding game doesn’t go fullspeed, doesn’t mean you can’t use the emulator for general good performance. BSNES’s demanding games for the CPU are three rare ST018 games. You may not play one game that is only demanding, but to see how many other popular titles perform. Some emulators may not play a demanding game due to compatibility or development issue. It’s a good way to see how good of a performance you would get to use it generally. Having over 60fps is a great way to have smooth experience and to throw any or most games without any problem.

NES: Mesen-Stock:       Megaman 2 Intro                        82.0 (100.0) Mesen-Very-High-OC:Megaman 2 Intro                        48.0 (59.5) Nestopia UE works very well and very light. Mesen by default performs fine at stock. For virtual overclocking, only the CPU overclock can barely perform. However, it's best to use Nestopia UE for those features, as well as using Runahead feature for lower input latency.

SMS/GG/Genesis/CD/32x: Genesis-GX-Nuked:  Virtua Racing Demos (MAME OPN2 / Nuked OPN2)                        118.0 (154.0) / 75.0 (93.0) The Genesis GX Plus core is too efficient to find any issue, and it is the most accurate currently and it was made for GC and Wii. Virtua Racing is the only demanding title since it uses SVP chip for 3D rendering. While it performs good, the Nuked OPN2 audio was added for more accurate sound. It seems to perform great, I suggest using MAME for fast forwarding, especially Runahead feature. 32x Virtua Racing runs around four times the fullspeed on Picodrive. I haven't tested it on Fusion yet, but assuming it will run at fullspeed.

SNES: SNES9x:            Super Mario RPG                        116.0 (163.0) Bsnes-v110 fast:   Super Mario RPG                        50.0 (63.0)                   ST018 Game                        36.0 (47.0) Higan:             ST018 Game                        21.0 (29.0) Bsnes-HD-Mode7:    Super Mario Kart 1x (2x) Testing the new Bsnes or BSNES-HD core performs really fine. Non-chip games works fullspeed out of the box. Games with Super FX2 chip or SA-1 chip are a bit demanding, and they are below fullspeed with CPU in stock. With overclocking, they are barely above 60fps. Super Mario RPG uses SA-1 chip. It would stay smooth and may not encounter small slowdowns. The most demanding games are the ones that uses ST010 DSP4 chip. Only three Japanese games use it, so they aren't common. However, they won't play at fullspeed, regardless. Higan an be used on Bsnes Standalone if you turn off all special fast features. Generally, it's best to use Bsnes since Higan's performance isn't there at all for the CPU. I also suggest the newest Bsnes standalone or HD core over any Bsnes forks you find from Retroarch. I haven’t tested the Super FX overclocking feature. I recommend the main SNES9X if you want to fast forward and use Retroarch’s Runahead for less latency, especially paired with overclocking for SA1 games. HD side on Bsnes is also tested. Using Super Mario Kart and playing the demos, and the game has DSP1 chip. On any game with Mode7, it is not fullspeed at 2x at stock CPU. For overclocking, it generally performs smooth on most Mode7 games. With Super Mario Kart, since it has an external chip, it is slightly demanding, that it goes down to almost below fullspeed. For a long test, I do get 59fps at the lowest I got, but it generally plays at fullspeed. 2x with overclocked APU should be good, as long as you don't use 2x on other games that has more demanding chip games than any DSP games.

Virtual Boy: Simple, perfect performance, regardless of hard sync.

Sega Saturn: Yaba Sanshiro is the best emulator you can use on the APU. You can enable frameskip to get the best performance as much as possible. Some parts of any games may go a bit below fullspeed, but the audio is async, so it may not be as noticable, as long as the CPU is overclocked.

PlayStation: Beetle-PSX Core:   Crash Team Racing (Interpreter / Max Perfprmance 1024 DMA)                        36.0 (45.0) / 47.0 (54.0) Mednafen:          Crash Team Racing                        41.0 (57.0) PCSX-Rearmed:      Crash Team Racing (Interpeter / Dyanmic) 57.0 (71.0) / 61.0 (81.0) PCSX-R PGXP:       Crash Team Racing (Vanilla / PGXP MEMORY + CPU 1.5x) ~85.0 (~115.0) / ~60.0 (~85.0) These are four emulators tested for the laptop and each has its own story. Beetle PSX Core from Retroarch is based on Mednafen. I am testing with the new dynamic recompiler on performance mode and most games should work with it. While the performance is noticably faster than standard interpreter, it is only more playable with overclocked CPU to barely have any lag, at least in software. Hardware rendering is quite slower on this laptop. I don't know exactly why it's slower than software, even using Linux with Mesa Drivers, but it still hits really similar speed when comparing interpreter and dynamic. If you want to do hardware with higher resolution and PGXP, use PCSX-R fork. With Crash Team Racing intro and test the ice bear scene, that's the part where I found the slowest point. Even with that, dynamic at max performance with software and host CPU overclock gives best results. Although, the interpreter on beetle is kinda slower than Mednafen and beetle is a fork of it. Mednafen is a multicore emulator, and I used its PSX emulator that is the most accurate. Without frameskip for full mesaurements, Mednafen is faster than Beetle core. Somehow, overclocking your CPU brings the performance up dramatically. It is pretty close to 60fps on few spots on CTR demos, but fullspeed on a lot of areas. It's unbelievable for standalone Mednafen to be faster then Retroarch core that you may use this for faithful emulation. Although, you can turn on frameskip for full emulation performance, I recommend not having frameskip for good response. Somehow, Mednafen doesn't use CPU boost clock for me, but still shows it's faster than Beetle core. Another Retroarch core is PCSX-Rearmed. In the last few years, we do have it for x86 and x64 PCs. It uses less accurate interpreter and Pete's Software for performance. On stock CPU, the performance reaches fullsleed most of the time, but you can encounter minor slowdown, but it's not that below. With Overclock, it reaches fullspeed on all areas of testing. Like Mednafen, it renders at 1x. Recently, we got dynamic recompiler for x86, x64, and Arm64. It made PCSX-Rearmed run at fullspeed without overclocking the CPU. For a 1x resolution, this emulator is preferred over the other two for performance. PCSX-R PGXP is a really good emulator and performs excellent. You can use Pete's OpenGL for Linux and OpenGL2 2.9 Tweak version for Windows. Pete's OpenGL 1.78 on Linux is more reliable than Windows version and just as fast as OpenGL2 2.9 tweak when using full framebuffer settings. Only difference are that OpenGL 2.9 allows shaders and xBR upscaling on textures. Both Pete's OpenGL 1.78 and OpenGL2 2.9 Tweak offers PGXP capabilities, so you should see very great polygon rendering. Only PGXP Memory for the CPU are usable with fullspeed. Combining PGXP memory and internal CPU overclock at 1.5x gets you slightly above fullspeed. Overclocking your CPU should bring more relief for fullspeed on any games. The Linux drivers, despite performing better than official drivers from AMD for OpenGL, it performs the same. Only one downside with r600g drivers at the moment on any video plugin is the lighting on Spyro on some areas, but they are minor, not severe. Regardless, you should have great experience on PCSX-R PGXP. Although, neither of the builds use .CHD iso files. I did test Windows PCSX-R PGXP on Wine, and while I was able to use OGL2 Tweak and get the same performance as Windows, I do have problems with the audio plugins and Xaudio2 driver. I do recommend finding PGXP Linux Build for easier setup. It's available as a PPA and AUR build.

N64: Angrylion Plus with Project64 using internal LLE mode plays at half the speed or lower mostly. This is gonna be a long explanation about this laptop hardware and drivers. In short, you can play many N64 games with pretty great accuracy without the use of Angrylion. However, it is a mess on Windows side. I've tested many video plugins. Windows 10 updates seems to make things a bit slower. Rice plugins are all over the place, and many of them have problems. GLN64 is not as good. Jabo's D3D8 1.6.1 is the fastest you would get. Glide64 and GlideN64 are bottlenecked by AMD OpenGL drivers, meaning that it's slower. Glide64's performance is mediocre. I tried using nGlide, and it helps a bit, it's still doesn't solve the lag on some games, mainly Quake 2 demos that's used as a test to see if the lag is present. Jabo's is the fastest, and only has minor lag because of Windows 10 updates. GlideN64 is really slow, even turning off framebuffer at 240p. It's a driver issue, and overclocking the CPU didn't help much. Quake 2 demo lag was few frames per second. I would've test Windows 7 since the laptop was made for it, but I no longer have it since 2016. Mupen64plus is slightly slower, since all plugins use OpenGL. Let's jump into Linux. This is unbelievable! I use Mesa Drivers and downloaded Mupen64Plus and got GlideN64 4.0. I tested Quake 2 demos, and by default, it's much faster than almost every plugin I tried on Windows. I overclocked the CPU, and turn off Depth Buffer to RDRAM with non-noticable regression, and it goes from minor lag to none! I bumped up the resolution and no lag is present at all. I do however set Framebuffer mode to VI origin to use less GPU usage on high resolutions. GlideN64 is really fast on Linux on this laptop. Even 3-point filtering finally works on my laptop. I recommend using standalone Mupen64Plus for Linux since it's faster. On Retroarch on Mupen64Plus-Next, I still have minor lag with the same settings. To get the easiest way to have mupen64plus with GlideN64 bundled, search M64p.

Dreamcast: Redream is the fastest emulator you can use for the CPU. It works fine at CPU stock. Reicast's fork, Flycast, is more compatible with games, but is more demanding. Even with CPU overclocking and turn off few accurate settings, it is a bit below fullspeed. On my drivers, I do have sprite glitch on Marvel Vs Capcom on Redream. It was tested on Linux, but on Windows, the performance may worsen due to dated drivers and poor OpenGL drivers.

GBA: mGBA:              Mermaid Melody PPPP Menu 141.0 VBA-Next:          Mermaid Melody PPPP Menu 126.0 VBA-M:             Mermaid Melody PPPP Menu 127.0 Plays very fine. mGBA is newer and more accurate than VBA emulators. VBA-M is the slowest generally. VBA-Next is sometimes close to mGBA's speed and sometimes by VBA-M's speed. Even when using bios and disable remove idle as shown, mGBA offers better performance.

NDS: Desmume 0.9.11+:   Pokemon Black2/White2 Title Screen (No Frameskip / Frameskip 9)                        33.0 (40.0) / 60.0+ (80.0+) MelonDS 0.83:      Pokemon Black2/White2 Title Screen (OpenGL 1x / Jit Recompiler)                        20.0 (29.0) / 00.0 (42.0) I’m testing two emulators for measurements. I'm using a jit command on Desmume Linux build for full performance. On Windows, it has OpenGL renderer, but Software is the fastest, so that's why I'm using software rendering on Desmume. I'm testing a demanding area on Pokemon B2W2. Without frameskip, you would get almost down to half fullspeed. With overclocking, you would get a bit more performance. With frameskip at max, I get fullspeed. Although, I suggest using lower frameskip, like one or two. On a lot of games, it may not need that much frameskip, generally. It performs fine on other games that have less demanding scenes. It's probably better for overclocked CPU since you can lower frameskip by one. On MelonDS, since it has an OpenGL renderer, I decide to test it myself. As a result, I get below half the speed at stock clocks. On Overclock, I get about half the speed, so it's the interpreter CPU that is the bottleneck. With beta ready Jit recompiler with default settings for pre-0.9 release, I do see some increase. It slightly passes Desmume without frameskip. However, some games will run near fullspeed and others at fullspeed. Not much has been tested for high internal resolution or other games. Your last choice to get better performance to games that are in the first 2/3 of the DS life cycle, No$GBA is your choice. It is fast and you can use Nocash or OpenGL renderer. Although, Wine has problems with OpenGL that it crashes wine. The nocash is faster and No$GBA is the fastest option while being really least accurate, like you can hear the audio have noisy sounds on couple of games, and it has problems playing Pokemon Gen 5 games. (Note!) I heard Drasic DS is gonna go Open Source after it has AARCH64 ARMv8 dynamic recompiler implemented. It is faster than Desmume that you can run it on an android emulator at fullspeed. It may not be that easy to set up since it's payware and using an emulator, but it does perform well. Although it does have a slight input lag, it still considerable for emulated Drastic DS. I haven't test it yet. Dev is working on x86-64 and x86 builds and will be out once the emulator goes free.

GameCube/Wii: Dolphin x64:       Soul Caliber 2                        36.0 (45.0) Soul Caliber 2 runs fine. At some parts, you can encounter a little slowdown. With big effects that happens during fighting, I see 3/4 of performance with overclock. Some games may play fine though, at least with overclocking. Make sure you run at 1x with async shaders, not using ubershaders. You won't play any heavier titles though. You can play with the virtual overclock options and you may set it to half the speed or quarter for some games.

PS2: While it runs at least, even with overclocking, a lot of games runs slower that it's not a recommended system to use PS2 emulators. At best, you stick with DX11 on Windows or OpenGL on Linux for PCSX2. Pushing speed to very aggressive may be appropriate for certain games that can run decently or almost fullspeed, but those are lighter titles.

PSP: PPSSPP:            God of War 37.0 (48.6) It runs games completely fine. Only demanding game is God of War. You can encounter slowdown on certain parts of the game. You can solve it by only setting the CPU clock to 222mhz on the option specifically for GOW. The game isn't constantly slow or majority of the time, it's just it has slowdowns sometimes, and goes fullspeed on other times. If God of War only has slowdowns on many enemies with the performance given above, you won't at least encounter slowdowns on the rest of PSP titles.

3DS: On overclocking too, I couldn't generally get Pokemon games to play at fullspeed on needed amount of times. It goes lower than fullspeed on battles, somewhat lower on overworld, and a bit lower than half the speed on double battle or battle royale. A lot of 3DS games runs generally slow. They barely reach fullspeed, even overclocking the CPU. Citra won't run fast enough for this system.

Dosbox: From any Dosbox builds I use as explained from previous page, it runs the dynamic recompiler fine. It reaches commonly around above near late 486 performance, around 24000. With overclock, it goes up around 36000, equivalent to 486DX4-100Mhz. Although, some 486-pentium era games are able to use more cycles without slowing down the emulator. On Interpreter, it runs around 12000, equivalent to 486DX-33Mhz. With overclock, you go to around 18000, equivalent to 486DX2-50Mhz. I do recommend Dosbox ECE, or finding Dosbox builds that has patches, and is 32bit build since 32bit dynamic recompiler is robust.

PCEM: It can run any 386 processors. 486, it can run on any SX ones pretty fine. However for DX, let's get into it. 486DX-25mhz can run fine at stock as an interpreter. Interpreter seems more constant on speed than dynamic recompiler. With Overclock, it can use DX-33mhz pretty good as an interpreter. Dynamic Recompiler is a way to get good performance for emulated CPUs and go higher, but on places like Windows 95, sometimes windows being on idle or loading things on Windows can bring the performance down a bit than expected. It can go above the targeted interpreters, but dynamic is better used on DOS mode on this laptop. On stock, it can go up to 486DX-40, and with overclock, it can go up to 486DX2-50. I use DBOPL on sound blaster setting to get a little more performance for the CPUs. The laptop can't go any higher to use Pentium CPUs, and using 3DFX Voodoo hasn't been tested, but I recommend using threads of 2 since the host CPU has four cores.

Recommended Emulators: NES: Nestopia UE SMS/GG/Genesis: Genesis GX Plus SNES: Snes9x PSX: PCSX-R PGXP, PCSX-Rearmed N64: Mupen64Plus (Gliden64, Linux), Project64 (Jabo's, Windows) Saturn: Yaba Sanshiro Dreamcast: ReDream GC/Wii: Dolphin GB/GBC: Sameboy GBA: mGBA NDS: Desmume 0.9.11+ PSP: PPSSPP PCEM: 486DX 25Mhz/40Mhz DOS: Dosbox ECE

Recommended emulators are listed as usable. If a system or emulator is not listed, it either that it won’t be playable due to speed, not past playable yet, or too fast enough to play (Stella, Atari 2600). The emulators on the list are recommended for general use. This is using stock settings on most emulators listed. Also, lighter games will perform faster, and you can toggle more settings for those games, like Runahead.

If any of you know what are the most demanding games for GBA, Saturn, Dreamcast, or DOS, let me know and comment.

Using AMD cards on OpenGL Emulators: On Windows, you can only use official AMD drivers. It runs pretty fine for DirectX stuff, but for OpenGL, a lot of OpenGL programs runs slower and sometimes broken. OpenGL drivers are not really optimized, and since Terascale GPUs aren't supported for at least four years as of this writing, you may not get to use newer OpenGL emulators or updates, even though you feel it should be more capable than how it performs. Even worse, first few generations of AMD APUs have short lifespan for graphic drivers from AMD, and Windows 10 can make things a bit slower than using the first version or using Windows 7. Again, Terascale GPUs will not have Vulkan support on any drivers.

Using Linux with Mesa Drivers, r600g: I tested OpenGL emulators on few distros with Mesa drivers. It does perform almost as good as Nvidia’s OpenGL drivers. On GlideN64, all the slowdowns on Quake 2 are gone. I don’t have that problem on Linux. The Mesa drivers are much more reliable, even if there very few errors I explained above, it's still very much stable and efficient. Trust me, it's far better than Windows.

Since we covered the CPU performance for emulators, we'll test out GPU performance of Radeon HD 6520g on the next page.

Tech & vidya ramblings pt 1

Making original posts? On Tumblr? In this day and age? What?

So I want to do a little cataloging, sue me. With the recent purchase of an Intel NUC, specifically the Crimson Canyon unit I’ve been taking a dive into my old ass Steam and GOG library, with detours into Battle.net and *shudder*, the Epic Games Store (hey, free Borderlands forced my hand). Oh and my Vita TV bit the dust -- bad HDMI port, bah. 

NUCs (pronounced “nook”) are, by the way, these tiny desktops that Intel make with almost zero marketing that give you comparable laptop performance in a 4x4″ footprint. They get away with this size by having a bespoke single-board setup, and an external power brick. This product is for those who: want something like a laptop, but not a laptop; a Chromebox, but without the restrictions of ChromeOS; something with way more oomph than a Raspberry Pi or Intel Compute Stick, or those who find even m-ITX form factors on the big side. Gigabyte and ASUS also make the BRIX and Mini PC lines respectively that are the same kind of thing, but the pricing and availability on those (not to mention that they don’t seem to be updated as frequently with newer parts) in Canada are not so good. You could also get those off-lease mini desktops from Lenovo, HP and Dell from eBay, if you’re okay with second hand. 

I wanted something with the ability to play games though, and this itty bitty thing packs a discrete Radeon that’s about on par with a GeForce 940MX or AMD’s own Vega 10 iGPU. This model also comes with an 8th gen U-series i3, which I’m going to be honest, I’m not super with thrilled with as dual-core computing, even with hyper threading in 2020 is a bit sketch but benchmarks aside, its handled productivity web apps and older gen AAA games, current eSports titles and possibly even emulation without any complaint. Oh and HDR10 4K video at 60fps through MPC? Yeah, it’ll do those fine too. 

Honestly, for the $583 CDN total I paid for this (which includes tax and a 512gb stick of Adata SX8200 Pro for storage), I’m pretty darn happy. You could conceivably opt for a 5+ litre case and go with AMD’s Ryzen APUs for a tiny budget gaming setup, but sourcing those parts at the same price bracket was difficult (again, hello Canadian market and WFH/’Rona putting further strain on supply/demand). The NUCs start to make more sense when you factor in an equivalent bill of materials plus labour. 

“But why would you get this when you could get a laptop?” you ask. Again, these things have equivalent performance to laptops, but occupy a different market segment. They’re replacing traditional tower desktops as computing miniaturizes and “good enough” performance can be had on small budgets for most people. Yeah, you could set your laptop up with a stand, a USB hub, monitor and peripherals, but I just find that clunky and I want my Chromebook unshackled. 

“Are you sure you can’t build something as good if not better for around ~$600?” I’m pretty sure I cannot. You’re more than welcome to send me a shopping list though. Again, Canadian here. While space wasn’t a huge consideration for me, I’m also not working on a McMansion sized table, so any chance to free up real estate is much appreciated. I’m not so sure you could find a 4x4″ motherboard that easily, plus that would also come with the price premium SFF computing carries. Trying out a NUC began as a novelty, but now I can’t ever see myself going for something much bigger than a palm-sized unit. 

“Aren’t NUCs bare bones kits? You end up paying for RAM and storage which brings the price up.” Yes, this is true for most NUCs, but mine came preconfigured to go (though I added an SSD). I’m not saying NUCs are this incredible price/performance proposition, but they really aren’t as bad as some think. Sure there’s a slight premium that you absorb by downsizing to this footprint (not to mention the Intel premium for their products), so that’s going to be an individual choice. Besides, don’t OEMs charge you exorbitant amounts anyway to upgrade storage and memory? At least you get the option to tinker and upgrade yourself with a NUC. 

“Aren’t these just Mac Mini clones? Why should I get one of these instead of those?” Yes and no. You could probably put Hackintosh on these and turn it into a Mac Mini though? And obviously get a Mac Mini if you want real MacOS? They’re clones in the sense that Apple did the whole ultra SFF mini computer first (I think, don’t @ me), but here in PC Land, NUCs and similar products are where it’s at. Intel seem to be the most prolific at refreshing these with new parts in a dizzying assortment of configurations across a variety of price points. You wouldn’t know that though, because they hardly advertise these things to end users. 

TL;DR get these if you want a super tiny PC that has a bit of customization going for it if you’re the DIY type. Get this one if you want something with some gaming legs, or better yet its “Islay Canyon” sibling with i5/i7s if you need more CPU oomph. Oh and if you were wondering, no, they aren’t exactly like Valve’s aborted Steam Machine concept, if only because most NUCs aren’t configured for gaming due to the historically crummy Intel iGPUs, but with managed expectations, or if you splash the cash and get their Hades and Ghost Canyon models, you can run a lot more than you might expect. 

For myself though, I’m hoping Tiger Lake CPUs and beyond with Intel Xe graphics find their way into future NUCs so I can get below or at console-ish performance while retaining all the benefits of a tiny PC. Or if AMD steps it up with OEMs and makes a similar product with a Ryzen APU. That’s the way it’s playing out for me next gen, as the PS5 (well, consoles in general) is looking less and less appealing to me.

Nieuwe informatie Ryzen 8000G duikt op Arabische website: tot wel 2,5x sneller dan Ryzen 5000G

AMD's nieuwe generatie cpu's zou eind januari zijn intrede moeten doen, volgens een nieuwsupdate van Gigabyte. Het zou gaan over een generatie die enkel bestaat uit 'G'-varianten, oftewel APU's. In de informatie die gedeeld is op Sakhtafzarmag zijn meerdere benchmarks te vinden waaruit blijkt dat de APU's heel goed zouden presteren. De tweede generatie processors die gebruik maakt van de AM5-socket lijkt qua cpu-kernen blijven steken op Zen 4, maar hebben veel uitgebreidere ingebouwde gpu's... http://dlvr.it/SzNDjh
