    Re: AMD

    ***Update***

    New info that's probably true

    AMD claimed the R9 290X would have a bandwidth >300GB/s. Turns out to be rated at 320GB/s.

    AMD claimed the R9 290X would compute at a rate >5 TFLOPS.
    Base clock appears to be 800MHz which means 4.5056 TFLOPS
    Boost clock appears to be 1000MHz which means 5.632 TFLOPS

    Quite impressive. Oh and it has a 512-bit bus.

    Just out of curiosity, with the 512 bit bus and those processing speeds, how close does the R9 come to saturating the PCIe 3.0 lanes?


    Future Maker? Teensy 3.6
