Whether the focus is on graphics or computation, I expect.
- netizen-936824 5y agoToo bad GPUs are terrible for compute then
- avhon1 5y agoWhich one focuses which way? When I think "workstation", I picture people doing CAD, video editing, and GPU-accelerated simulations and number crunching, in addition to people compiling code. Games aren't just GPU-bound, either. Unreal says they develop their games on systems with "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970" and "Six-Core Xeon E5-2643 @ 3.4GHz". https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/Basics/InstallingUnrealEngine/RecommendedSpecifications/ https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/Basics/InstallingUn...
- OJFord 5y agoDeveloping games is different from playing them. The latter takes a pretty beefy GPU (for a given generation) before the CPU is a likely potential bottleneck.
- scoopertrooper 5y agoI like to think the main differentiator is whether the GPU is optimised for TF64 or TF32. But, really the boundaries are blurred for sure.
