When I started this page, I intended to document the hardware. But of course, the hardware requires device drivers to be used conveniently. But each operating system needs specific device drivers. What if the hardware could support drivers that comply with say

good and reliable sources for information. There might be huge discrepancies between the facts and the intentions of the AMD/Ndvidia/Intel/etc. marketing departments of course. User:ScotXW^t@lk 11:27, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please keep both the templates

Can we remove the title within both templates? I find it unattractive if there is already a title (header) in the article and then there is a second one from the template. Wikiinger (talk) 19:24, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Seems reasonable to me. Dbsseven (talk) 20:26, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I will rebuild the table based on the engineering names rather then the marketing names. E.g. the marketing name "

The GPU is composed out of a couple of fairly independent blocks. The GFX = 3D engine = GCA = Graphics and Compute Array of GCN 3^rd gen and GCN 4^th gen (Polaris) is identical. Since most people actually care about the 3D engine, maybe we should stop calling Polaris GCN4… But the other blocks are different though. Especially the DCE display controller engine received some nice updates. And the GPUs are manufactures in a new process 14nm. User:ScotXW^t@lk 11:14, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure about Win 7/Linux, but my driver report Vulkan 1.1.70 for R9 290 on Win10, so I assume all GCN cards have support for it now 93.185.27.183 (talk) 19:38, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The APU version of Vega is reported to include a replacement for the VCE and UVD, termed the Video Core Next. As this means there are two version of Vega (with UVD/VCE or with VCN), can anyone think of a graceful way to indicate this? ScotXW or Wikiinger, any thoughts?

Is this already for sure? Anyways, I guess it has to done like in the case of Volcanic Islands, supplemented by a footnote. My 2cts Wikiinger (talk) 21:08, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Phoronix is a pretty reliable source, in my experience/opinion.^[1] This seems like the best we'll get unless this is noted in a programming guide for Raven Ridge, whenever that comes out. Dbsseven (talk) 17:34, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply

I started working on a template with parameters and conditional logic, to display only certain parts of the table. See here User:Wikiinger/sandbox/AMD GPU features, however it is not quite there yet... Wikiinger (talk) 19:59, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Maxorazon (talk) 02:17, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
After having tried that too without much success... people should, as of today,
really forget about template parameters for a table pager,
except if they want to hurt themselves. A hint though:
html tags and no wikitext markup for constructing tables with parser functions. Maxorazon (talk) 21:51, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To be clear, my point is not if DxDiag is reliable, but if the forum poster is reliable. Dbsseven (talk) 17:34, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

fair enough, but there is no sources of this because no one has looked at DXDiag with their Terascale 2+ series cards and posted about it.. until now, i know the picture wasn't doctored, and because of wikipedia's rules you will never get the up to date information on Direct3D since it changes all the time with windows updates.— Preceding

I understand your frustration with feature sets of older hardware. But unless there is a reliable source, a forum post cannot be used as the source for an edit. A core policy of WP is

Verifiability, not truth.) It should be reverted. Dbsseven (talk) 17:46, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply

Since the fundamental issue (forum posts cannot be the basis for edits per

WP:SPS) is unchallenged, I am going to go ahead and edit accordingly. This can be discussed further here if needed. Dbsseven (talk) 03:51, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply

Example: R9 280 is correctly in the Sea Islands but it's a GCN 1st gen as it's a product based on Tahiti from the previous series. R9 285 is GCN 3rd gen! The table incorrectly states all the Radeon Rx 200 line is GCN 2nd gen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rafaelluik (talk • contribs) 01:32, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, there is redundancy with Template:AMD_graphics_API_support. Also, what about bringing ROCm more prominently now? Maxorazon (talk) 03:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
