Will believe it when I see it. Doesn't make very much sense to me.

Lisa Su is full on AI kool aid juice, why would they need to come back to consumer business when they can continue to serve the much more lucrative ai data center market for as long as possible?

And even if they did, it's always the same, extreme limited volume most expensive dies first (end of 2027?), then 1 year later rdna5 successors to the 9060 XT and another year after that for halo apus. Because nobody cares about the budget range anymore.

Yeah, I could see that happening. Possible and depressing. HardwareUnboxed / GamersNexus did a great collab video recently explaining the situation.

Nun sorgt jedoch ein neues Gerücht für Bewegung im Zeitplan. Laut dem bekannten Leaker Moore's Law Is Dead könnte AMD die Erwartungen übertreffen und die RDNA-5-Desktop-GPUs bereits Mitte 2027 veröffentlichen.

RDNA5 in 2nm oder 4nm? ;-)
Mitte 2027 ist genau 1 Jahr her.
Und so lange braucht es eine Grafikkarte mit ausgereifter Fertigung zu konfigurieren, in einem Chipdesign "zu gießen", zu produzieren und am Markt zu liefern.

Für AMD wäre es besser, wenn Sie einen Performance-GPU sowohl in 4nm als auch in 2nm designen und am Markt bringen  würden, wo dann die 4nm-Version dann um 500-700 $ verkauft wird, wärhend die 2nm-Version dann überteuert um 1000-1200$ verkauft werden kann. Damit werden jenen Kunden versorgt, die unbedingt RDNA5 oder unbedingt 2nm & RDNA5 in einer "Top-Grafikkarte" haben wollen.

AMD kann natürlich Jan-2027 2nm-RDNA5-Grafikkarten, 2nm-RDNA5-Zen6-APU und 2nm-Zen6-CPUs am Markt bringen.
Die Frage ist nur zu welchen Mengen und zu welchem Preien. Aktuelle Preise gehen aktuell nur mit 4nm. Im Verlauf des Jahres 2027 vielleicht auch 3nm, aber mit 2nm kann ich es mir nicht vorstellen.

Es macht sehrwohl Sinn, wenn AMD z.b. überteuerte 2nm-RDNA5-Grafikkarten oder 2nm-RDNA5-Zen6-APU anbietet.
Und zwar, indem AMD RDNA5 eben in allen oder APU-Produkten rausbringt. Denn wenn AMD einen 3nm-(4+4)-Zen6-RDNA5-APU für Performance-Notebooks am Markt bringt, dann wäre die Optik schief, wenn AMD zur gleichen Zeit RDNA4-Grafikkarten zum x-fachen Preis verkauft. Außerdem finde ich RDNA3.5 für APUs als zu veraltet, weshalb es AMD auch vom Image etwas schaden könnte, umsolänger AMD RDNA5 nicht in (allen) APUs rausbringt.

Immer her damit. Es werden schon Käufer dafür finden.

Exactly. It is not designed to be as rugged as barrel plugs that have been perfected over decades of mobile computing. Our IT shop replaces laptops all the time because of damaged USB-C ports.

The EU Commission produces copious amounts of red tape and political exhaust.

Quote from: voltage != capacity on June 20, 2026, 07:53:01Voltage doesn't matter for range, it's the Wh. They could simply connect them in parallel and stay at 48 V.

I remember a video of a guy (I think it was somewhere in asia, CN possible) with a, presumably, bike battery in this hand going into an elevator and just before the door closed, the battery exploded.

The crux of the "ultra-long range" moniker is not that it relates to range. It masks the fact that it has a higher voltage pack. Basically - long range needs a bigger pack. A bigger pack technically can have higher voltage depending on cell arrangement.
All of this allows them to sell bikes that are easily modifiable to run on higher voltage and make more power to the wheels.
And the more power you try to draw the more likely you will get a thermal runaway event.

Actually more voltage by arranging cells in series results in lower overall current draw from each cell. This usually leads to cooler-running but also slower-charging battery packs.

There are other causes of battery combustion. Like cell quality, the more cells you have the more likely that one or more of them will break down during service life. Packing poor quality cells together like the chop shops is a recipe for disaster statistically. Bike frames are also less protected from shock and thermal cycling, making cells degrade faster in this environment. Then there are seal failures letting in moisture or just exhalation due to pressure and temperature changes. EVs after major flooding events are prime examples of this. I doubt the bike seals are better than those of EVs, because neither are designed to be submerged or exposed to water extensively. Anywhere that does this kind of chop shop stuff would also likely sell knockoff chargers, which also can cause fires.

Noo..! They're bringing it to rdna3.5 and windows too. :'(

Apparently, this fixes the issues with shimmering and image stability.
