AMD on the road to recovery.

[humbug]

AMD could jump on the Second Wave Children's Crusade bandwagon and give Miss Thunberg a call, with everyone else using children to shame people into an extremist religion, again, AMD too could profit off it massively.

Sorry....

Spoiler

No i'm really not.

EPYC is faster, cheaper, more power efficient, morally and ethically the much better choice, so why not? Of course, companies such as Microsoft must adhere to energy efficiency at all levels.

Spoken like a true vegan.

This is a problem AMD need to address, yes, they are tackling that next.

Just came from B&H in NYC while on vacay and saw no Ryzen laptops on display. Asked a CS why - he said no one wants them. They do have some on stock but all down in the storage.

This means that the mind set of people hasn't changed yet and the desktop sales are driven mostly by the enthusiasts.

I have been saying this for a while now - AMD needs a performance revolution to change the mind set of the masses.

I think that store is seriously missing out. Cos i also went to a Micro Center in New Jersey, they have 2 or 3 in display and a Lenovo with 3500u and Vega8 for 500$ had a number of customers interested in the 1/2 hr i was in the area.

$51.43 is amazing but 51.43% of total market share would be staggering.

I'd be happy if only there is a Radeon 20-30% faster than RTX 2080 Ti

There will be, in 51.43 weeks.

I used Trading 212, not sure if it's available outside the UK?

Freetrade is a really simple way of investing, got mine though them.

AMD keeps a clear lead going into 2020 at Mindfactory

Thank you both. I shall investigate

I buy through interactive investor.

Make sure you buy within a stocks and shares ISA wrapper where possible - it shields you from tax on any gains you might make.

edit - sorry just saw you are based in Portugal, so disregard the ISA stuff!

NMWare cashing in on high core count CPU's.

They changed the model from charging per CPU to limiting that to 32 cores and needing another licence for CPU above 32 cores, so for a 64 core EPYC you would now need two licences.

Basically AMD are charging for a 64 core what Intel are charging for a 28 core to gain market share and VMWare have decided they would cash in on that difference.
This IS a problem for AMD because the value in going for the 64 core over the 28 core is swallowed up by NMWares profiteering.
