    We should Compare power draw between Intel and AMDs 16 cores Threadripper. You may have the numbers. No point in comparing 18 vs. 16 cores AMD (stock or oc'd numbers is fine). Maxed OC will tell more. Thanks @Meaker@Sager

    Why do you insist on talking about CPU's in this GPU thread? I even replied to you posting in the correct thread, can you/we please move this to the on topic thread?

    For straight ThreadRipper talk, no vs. Intel, yeah I know they added GPU's there too :)

    AMD's Ryzen CPU's (Ryzen/TR/Epyc) & Vega/Polaris GPU's
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/amds-ryzen-cpus-ryzen-tr-epyc-vega-polaris-gpus.799348/

    Or for AMD vs Intel:

    Ryzen vs i7 (Mainstream); Threadripper vs i9 (HEDT); X299 vs X399; Xeon vs Epyc
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...-vs-i9-hedt-x299-vs-x399-xeon-vs-epyc.805695/

    I'm gonna stop responding in this thread except for the original topic :)

    My bad. Should moved the post over and reply there. Maybe mod @TANWare could be so nice help. If not, I will delete it.

    So after seeing the power requirements for Vega 64, and to a lesser extent Vega 56. Do you think they will bring the same chip from the desktop to an MXM form factor in a relevant amount of time? Or will it take them too long to make it more efficient for laptop usage?

    Well, it appears that Vega 64 is clearly not going to be a 1080 killer some of us have hoped for. Curious comparison here even though the second-tier 1070 and Vega 56 GPUs are of little or no interest to me. The 1080 is 6% more expensive, and about 7.5-8.0% stronger than Vega 64.

    The undervolt experiments, early work by Gamer's Nexus suggests a similar power drop to Max-Q to get the heart of performance without going over power might bring in a potential mobile dGPU from what's already out.

    Maybe AMD will do that, or a savvy vendor might take it on themselves.

    Well that should be yet another fine example of mediocrity and pathos in a mobile package. Maybe it will come bundled with milk and cookies.

    And don't forget the free tickets to the petting zoo ;)

    Heat generation, it's a killer of laptop sized applications of any kind.

    Let's see what AMD does to make it work. :)
