[MLiD] Project Helix is 25 Percent Faster Than PS6

More games too.

With steam.

Xbox, Steam, EGS, PCSX2, Dolphin, RPCS3, Ryujinx

You guys should stop hyping this, it'll be a source of endless shitposts for the usual trolls when the new Xbox doesn't actually let you use Steam.
You think very highly of them, as if they will stop if steam is playable. Already seen them preparing talking points.

Every single pc game that will not run on next xbox will get 10+ pages thread. Its inevitable there will be hiccups. Will be made 10 times worse by the trolls.

It's already starting.

They don't have a "wait and see approach" they are doing everything they can to already mark it as a failure. We don't even know anything about it officially from ms outside of the tiny little drops of info they've given.

High price, just get a pc …… etc etc

As if other consoles are going to be cheap as chips. Lol.
 
Wasnt it rumored that the series x lost significantly more money for every console sold?

Yeah, it was more expensive to make. They used more expensive cooling for example while Sony used "brute force" liquid metal + massive heatsink (that's why console was gargantuan).

SoC was also bigger and more expensive to make.
 
In the age of digital ain't nobody dropping their game catalogues and switching sides no matter how much more powerful "on paper" the nextbox is over the PS6, history tells us these Microsoft power gains amount to very little actual realized game performance upticks..

I am if it runs Steam from the getgo. I have an old 3070Ti now. Need new shii.
 
Just on the performance level, even if this thing is $1500, its amazing to me that it will provide PT performance of 5090 and raster performance of 5080, of which an equivalent PC right fucking now will run us $5000 MINIMUM.

I wanna play path Traced RE9 next X-mas for $1200! GIVE IT TO MEEEEEEEEEE~

You cannot have "PT performance of 5090 and raster performance of 5080".
Cause believe it or not that "raster" performance (also known as compute outside of YouTube retard channels areas) is in fact needed for any sort of PT performance.
If such a balance would in fact be implemented that "5090 PT performance" would just sit there untapped because the whole GPU will be limited by shading and denoising at its "5080 raster performance".

A fully hybrid Xbox console/PC with access to all stores is definitely something I'm interested in. Lots of details need to be ironed out how all that works though. And the price.

The endless shitposts are going to come from a lot more than the "usual trolls" if this thing doesn't let you use Steam. That's on Microsoft. Sarah Bond floated the "not limited to a single store" concept and let everyone run wild with the idea.
 
I 100% think Steam will not be on the new Xbox. I don't know why it keeps being repeated that it will be.
Well, they can still do whatever they want until the launch. If they think it would hurt their Xbox brand.

They did remove Kinect from XB1 after a few months when they saw it was a disaster at that price. They could remove Steam Store after a few months too.

WtF u on? Sure DEFINITELY CAN have different RT and raster performance levels! GPU has parts that are for raster, RT, and AI works and arrange it different ratios!

Seriously, you have some fucked up notions of how current GPUs work.
 
You mean MLID leaks were never misleading about AMD performance? No way!


AMD-RDNA-3-RDNA-4-Radeon-RX-7000-Series-Graphics-Card-Pricing-and-Performance-Rumors-_-2-2048x1152.png


2x 6900x performance. Some leakers were claiming 3x. So yeah, don't get too excited about that RT performance similar to 5090.
Brah, the latest internal AMD docs says 5090 level RT for 52CU RDNA5. Magnus has 68CUs!.

Your receipts here are moot since its obviously ancient and way outdated docs (September 21 for RDNA4? You high brsh?). Thats how product development works. As time and development goes on, things get adjusted and changed. You kids are clueless how things get made...

You are eating up typical AMD (before release) performance hype grandpa.
 
Helix probably the AT1, costum SOC. 2000 TOPs minimum for full Path tracing and neural rendering. Jason Ronald is crazy, lol.
 
WTF are you talking about?

5090 is almost 2x die size of Helix APU (so GPU is smaller than that). You expect similar RT performance from this thing?
There is such thing as different architectures having way different IPC. Also, 5090 is on 4nm and Magnus is on 3nm. Also 5090 die wastes most of the space on AI shit, because the chip was designed primarily for AI data centers. Also u r a poopoo head.
 
I was just discussing this in work with some colleagues and they are telling me it's looking more than 25 percent and what is MLiD smoking.

This isn't a ps5, series x situation at all from the broader look at it.
 
Yep, it makes no sense whatsoever.
If it doesn't have Steam, it isn't a PC. if it isn't a PC, then expect its sale to be 1/10th of what it would get otherwise.

It makes sense to have Steam if you only make money from the hardware cost. If you take out Steam or block it, you don't get a PC and thus people will expect the machine to be CHEAPER. It is two paths that Xbox had to pick one of.

I am on the "Have Steam, cost $1500" camp. Those who still think Xbox is still a console would argue otherwise.

Man... AI is not shit. Stop this nonsense. All future GPUs will be based on neural rendering, i.e. AI.

You have to admit that this is a good thing.

Same "ai shit" will be in RDNA5. Dedicated RT cores were also a "waste of silicon space" according to AMD until recently, RDNA5 will have radiance cores...

If this GPU is going to have ~5080 tier of performance, it's going to have similar performance in RT as well. 5090 is literally 2x the GPU vs. 5080:

Of course it doesn't achieve that level of performance difference in real games.

Steam makes device PC it seems. Interesting. So, the only differentiator is if steam runs on it?

I dont think that flies for me.
 
They will fix it to make it better. As you said, it was just a Demo. The quality of the graphics will depend on what they feed the training dataset with.
Brah, no one including me thought that demo was great. Needing an entire 5090 for that AI Slop pass? GETTHEFUCKOUTTAHERENVIDIA!

5080 tier + NPU

Your brain stuck on every GPU architecture must function like nVidia GPUs. STOP IT.

AMD is catching up to nvidia, not the other way around.

Their starting point is this Path Tracing performance on RDNA4:

amd-radeon-rx-9070-xt-review-ign-v0-ya2u3bhdq0ne1.jpeg


According to Kepler they at least achieved parity (probably beaten Blackwell a bit). But you still have much smaller GPU vs. 5090...
