Muistipiirien hinnat ovat niin tolkuttomat, että laitevalmistajienkin on pakko mukautua tilanteeseen
AMD julkaisi viime viikolla näytönohjaimen, jossa on ainoastaan 4 gigatavua näyttömuistia - joka on vuonna 2026 todella, todella vähän.

Man braucht gar keine Steam Machine: SteamOS auf Standard-PC getestet
Seit Version 3.8 unterstützt SteamOS offiziell PCs mit AMD-Grafikkarten. Wir haben es mit einer RX 9060 XT (16 GByte) und einem Ryzen AI Max+ 395 ausprobiert.

More AI news from AMD, re-use of the better parts of their Strix Halo yield for industrial use cases.
"Physical AI" aka robotics and edge use cases. Buzzword galore! 😆
Still remember when "edge" was the new buzzword Pepperidge Farm Remembers

Something I do find interesting is the claim of hard real-time assurances whilst virtualized with Xen.
Technically a guaranteed deadline of 2 years is hard real-time too, just as MS-DOS is an amazing real-time OS, but I'm sure that's not what they're talking about...
Any one got more info on the Xen claim? Haven't heard so much about them these days...

AMD raised its 2030 data center CPU forecast to roughly $220 billion, then stated its EPYC performance claims in "agents per rack." The footnote admits agent counts are derived from available thread resources used as a proxy.
Nvidia's Vera makes the opposite bet: 88 faster cores rather than 256 denser ones.
Neither has published the benchmark that would decide which is right.

I'm happy to announce our work has been accepted at ESORICS 2026, going to be held at Rome, Italy in September later this year!
"A Systematic Look at Quality-of-Service Feature Effects on Side Channels in AMD SEV-SNP"
In our work, we show that AMD CPUs' Quality of Service features introduce and amplify side channels, especially concerning in the confidential computing / trusted execution paradigm of computing.
We show that a malicious hypervisor can use allocation and monitoring features to leak and amplify what's going on in an AMD SEV-SNP confidential VM. The hypervisor can mount keystroke detection attacks, website fingerprinting attacks, Bleichenbacher attacks on RSA, and covert channels.
We reported our findings to AMD, who said that "side channels are not in their threat model for SEV-SNP"... 🙂.
I have a blog write up here (there's a logo of a cat wearing a business tie - no AI): https://snee.la/posts/amd-qos-side-channels/

Bought a second-hand #ThinkPad L14 Gen 2a (#AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 5650U). Plenty fast enough for what I do, at about 15% of the price of a current model.
Installed #FedoraLinux and, so far, everything works, even the fingerprint reader. Repairable, upgradeable, and a small reminder that we don't always need the latest hardware.

Back at testing whether my RDNA3 card (7800 XT) will behave itself on this system.
I'm running kernel 7.1.4 (Alpine linux-stable) so supposedly there are a bunch of fixes since 6.19 -> 7.0 -> 7.1.x.
We'll see. Last hour has been solid. No screen artifacts or horizontal aberrations on terminal or web browser windows.
When it did occasionally work adequately before it would hard crash to a green screen on one of the monitors after about 24 hours or so. Didn't matter what kernel parameters I put on the kernel cmd line.
It's kind of weird as I've been running this card in a different system (same OS, different gen CPU/mobo) successfully but it is a single head system so maybe that's the difference. Some combinations of cobbled together junk just don't work in the PC space.
Fingers crossed.

Ok, I think I've got this display card under control - or so it seems. It hasn't crashed since Wednesday.
I guess this is a combo AMD RDNA3 Navi23 and KDE Plasma (+ Wayland?) bug...
I backed out all my Linux kernel command line switches for AMD GPUs and it crashed to green screen in less than a half hour. So, re-adding them stopped that from happening.
... amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x410 amdgpu.tmz=0 amdgpu.gpu_recovery=1 amdgpu.sg_display=0 ...
And then the cursor thing is fixed <?!> by adding
KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=1
Currently this is what is set:
cat /proc/$(pidof kwin_wayland)/environ | tr '\0' '\n' | grep KWIN :
KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 KWIN_DRM_NO_DIRECT_SCANOUT=1 KWIN_FORCE_SW_CURSOR=1
From a user experience point of view I don't see any difference with that software cursor setting.
There's another wrinkle to this that might be a factor but I can't really test around it currently. This is a multi-head machine and one screen is connected via HDMI and one is DP.
Perhaps this wouldn't be a problem if both screens were connected via the same type of connector.
Both screens are set to the same refresh frequency. But, in the display control app one reads back at 60.00 Hz while the other is 60.000 Hz. Minor thing right? But in trying to make this work I've seen references to AMD GPU weirdness in multi-head configurations where the refresh rates were different between screens. Red herring perhaps.
Anyway, don't know if there are (or will be) any people trying to make a RX 5800 XT GPU behave under Linux but this seems to be what worked for me and my dual head setup. I'll update if anything changes.
