With 56% of global manufacturing for optical modules shored up in China, this would pose an immediate problem, and one that the markets have already responded to in-kind.
Key facts
- Last month, hot off the BC-250's full 40 CU unlock patch, they thought the time was ripe and finally put together a BC-250 build of their own to see what all the fuss
- Get a full year of access for $29, or from $7 per-month
- To that end, they've seen that an eye-watering $2 trillion USD has been pledged to secure AI hardware and DRAM alone
- The team also interviewed Intel's VP and GM of Enthusiast Business (and AMD's ex-Technical Marketing Director) Robert Hallock
Summary
If you've not subscribed to their subscription service, Tom's Hardware Premium, they've collated every article that you've missed out on over the past seven days. Last month, hot off the BC-250's full 40 CU unlock patch, they thought the time was ripe and finally put together a BC-250 build of their own to see what all the fuss was about. The experience of reading Jake's trials and tribulations feels like harkening back to the days when everything wasn't simply plug-and-play, and if you wanted the most out of your hardware, you were going to have to get a little bit uncomfortable and more intimately familiar with the nature of the silicon you're running. Benchmarking AMD's BC-250, offering Steam Machine-like performance at half the price. The team also interviewed Intel's VP and GM of Enthusiast Business (and AMD's ex-Technical Marketing Director) Robert Hallock.
