  • The Launch of the RX 7900 GRE Globally
  • Firm AMD RDNA 4 leaks out of MLID
  • Confirmation that Blackwell is launching 2024 with GDDR7
  • Rumors of 12VHPWR Mandates for Blackwell by Nvidia
  • Numerous Intel i9-14900KS Rumors
  • XBOX "Business Updates" that point to MS bowing out of direct console competition
  • Further rumors and confirmation of a PS5 Pro with "Custom DLSS-like Tech"
  • Confirmation of Nintendo Switch 2 Specifications

Have other AIBs expressed disinterest in using the 12VHPWR connector? Are these any others planning on doing an EVGA bow out or pivot?

Hi Tom and Dan, I know I'm a little late at this, but I just now remembered a question that popped in my head a while back. Currently, RDNA uses Rasterizatior cores that can do raytracing, saving space on the silicon, and Nvidia has more distinct raytracing, and rasterization cores and thus take more space on the silicon. So my question is, when do you think we will see raytracing cores, that can also do rasterization? Because I genuinely don't know what we could get out of more rasterization performance even now, so a reversal of Radeon's architecture would be most logical in my mind.

If you can't make it fit in the Loose ends (I wouldn't be surprised if you wanted to ask around at AMD and Nvidia about it before answering this question) I'll state that this question still stands for the next Broken Silicon/Die Shrink, if I forget to ask it again.
