I find the naming conventions for computer parts utterly confusing. I’m looking to step away from Apple and do my first (AMD) PC build. Need to find a good overview to read through.
- stu2b50 6y ago3080 30 <- represents the generation, previously it was 20,eg RTX 2080 80 <- represents power within the generation, an 80 is near the top Higher generation means newer. Higher number means more powerful within that generation. To compare across generations, you need benchmarks.
- Sohcahtoa82 6y agonVidia has the most sane naming convention. Sure beats AMD. Is an RX Vega better than an RX 570? What about an RX 5700?
- SahAssar 6y agoIMO apples is even worse, most models just have semi-official dates like "Mid 2015" and no proper consumer-facing model numbers.
