"AMD says AMD is the best." Wow, I'm so surprised. I also think I am the best(/s). I still find this compute per watt thing such a silly thing for any company

"AMD says AMD is the best." Wow, I'm so surprised. I also think I am the best(/s).
I still find this compute per watt thing such a silly thing for any company to care about. Until Apple did it, it was not on anyone's minds. Once Apple did it, they dumped a bunch of money into marketing a metric that no one cared about; and now people pretend to care about it.
Not to mention this obsession with CPU that I just cannot grasp. Not sure what industries this is the bottleneck.
- dhruvdh 3y agoThe sheer audacity to claim no one cared about perf/watt before Apple. More like you did not know what it is before you consumed Apple marketing.

- Macha 3y agoVR (sorry, "spatial computing" now, Apple doesn't do anything that can be dismissed as a gaming peripheral now..) is another recent example.

- kalleboo 3y agoApple started talking about Performance per Watt in 2005, 18 years ago. It was their stated reason for switching from PowerPC to Intel.
