In my country a RTX 4060 and Ryzen 7800x3d costs basically the same. But why?

Ryzen 7800x3d
>11,270 million transistors
>71 mm2 6nm CCU die
>122 mm2 14nm IO die

RTX 4060
>22,900 million transistors
>188 mm2 5nm GPU die
>8gb Vram
>Cooler
>Power delivery

So the die on the GPU is bigger, has double the transistors, you get a whole power delivery/Vram/cooler package yet pricing for the GPU and CPU is similar.
Is it a lot more complex to manifacture CPU dies?
What is the reason that the GPU costs the same, although it seems to have the more complex die and has more hardware included you have to buy seperatly for a CPU?
>>
CPU instruction sets and therefore silicon are far more complex and generally capable. GPU wins through mass parallelism of much simpler cores.

So in short: GPU die is indeed less complex to manufacture.
>>
>>100181612
less branching logic, overall simpler, more scalable, higher yields, people expect to buy a new GPU every 1-2 years but you replace your CPU only once a decade
>>
>>100181612
>much simpler cores
>>100181652
>overall simpler
If you have a die that is fully activated, doesn't every transistor have to function correctly which means more transistors = more complexity?
>>
>>100181856
It's not exactly more complex, it's just more dense. You have more units doing the same thing at the same time, it's just Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V
>>
>>100181856
if transistors fail to the point one of the tiles is compromised, they just rebin the die as a lower-cost part

The basic rule (with exceptions) for "a" vs "an" is weather the next sound is a vowel.
"an" if it is, and "a" otherwise.
Of course, there are many exceptions sprinkled around, but this will make most speech sound natural.

>The basic rule (with exceptions) for "a" vs "an" is weather the next sound is a vowel.

Which is why saying "an RTX" is an ESL tier mistake. ESLs mainly learn English by reading, while EFLs mainly learn English by listening. By the time EFLs start learning how to read, they are already competent English speakers. In terms of phonetics, they have pretty much mastered it.

I don't understand what you mean by this, but in English letters aren't named solely after the sounds they make like in some phonetic alphabets.
If you want to say my name contains one letter z, you would say
>I have a "z" in my name
because "z" is pronounced "zee," which starts with a consonant sound.
If you want to say it includes one letter r, you should say
>I have an "r" in my name
because "r" is pronounced "arr," starting with a vowel sound.

The point was that you can't put yourself in the shoes of an ESL. It really doesn't matter what sounds a letter or letter combinations make, because ESLs conceptualize a letter as a symbol first and as a sound second, whereas for EFLs it's the exact opposite.
>>100182944
Yes. Like I said, if you ever learned a foreign language, you'd wish you made native-like mistakes instead of non-native-like mistakes. Especially in highly inflected languages, non-native-like mistakes make you sound like a literal retard.

Octopi is incorrect, octopuses or octopodes is acceptable.
The -i ending on some plurals is a crossover of Latin, and octopus isn't a word derived from Latin, so it doesn't get the Latin derived ending.

No, I think you're a retard for trying to push it. If, however, in the future, we totally drop the use of "an" (as the language seems to be moving towards dropping whom, an, and a few other words), continuing to use it would be wrong.
So you're wrong now and will be wrong in the future.

To "set off" with a comma means you're adding a comma to differentiate the existing structure, rather than replacing the structure.

>>100183845
>you set off parenthetical expressions with commas
To analyze the logic of your sentence structure:
1. You already have a parenthetical expression (as it's what you're setting off)
2. You imply that it doesn't already have commas (because you're setting it off WITH commas, the action comes after the existence of the parenthetical expression)
3. By (1) and (2), you have an expression already in parentheses, because by (2) it has something other than commas and by (1) it's already parenthetical.
4. You claim to set off this expression with commas
5. By (3) and (4), you have an expression already in parentheses which you then add commas to.

Why mention parenthetical statements if you don't even understand what "parenthetical" means?
>1. You already have a parenthetical expression (as it's what you're setting off)
>2. You imply that it doesn't already have commas (because you're setting it off WITH commas, the action comes after the existence of the parenthetical expression)
See the picture for the definition of "parenthetical." You enclose parenthetical statements using commas, parentheses (round brackets), or em-dashes. Commas are the most common in this case.
>3. By (1) and (2), you have an expression already in parentheses, because by (2) it has something other than commas and by (1) it's already parenthetical.
You don't understand what "parenthetical" means. It isn't already in parentheses. Again, look up its definition:
>A parenthetical remark is said in addition to the main part of what you are saying or writing. Also, extra, and in addition. added. additional. additionally.
>4. You claim to set off this expression with commas
Yes, that's because you can use either commas, parentheses, or em-dashes.
>5. By (3) and (4), you have an expression already in parentheses which you then add commas to.
No. You do not understand what you're talking about.
Just because it's called "parenthetical" doesn't mean you must use parentheses or that it already has them.
>>
>>100184450
So you agree with 1.
And you agree with 2, but don't realize it, because it's already a parenthetical statement it's already offset with commas, parentheses, or em-dashes. For it to be parenthetical, it must be surrounded by one of the markers already, otherwise it's not yet a parenthetical statement.
Therefore, to offset a parenthetical statement with commas, you add commas to an already otherwise parenthetical statement.
Here's a literal example, you go from this:
>hello Bob (or Robert).
to this:
>hello Bob, (or Robert).
You are "setting off the parenthetical with commas"
You intend to go from this:
>hello Bob or Robert
to this:
>hello Bob, or Robert
In this case you are adding parenthetical commas to a statement, thereby setting off the statement and not the parenthetical.
>>
>>100184450
>>100184523
To be explicitly clear, my argument is purely semantic in the sense of you phrased your words in a way I could nitpick, but the general idea you were attempting to convey was sound.
My only argument here is that you could have phrased your sentence in a way I couldn't deliberately misinterpret and argue against.
>>
>>100184523
>>100184535
No, you still don't understand what "parenthetical" means.
>>
>>100184621
Allow me to do an example without parentheses, because they are very confusing for you. Anything in CAPS I'm trying to draw your attention to.
Starting with
>hello Bob or Robert
you can make the STATEMENT "or Robert" and turn it into a PARENTHETICAL
>hello Bob—or Robert.
you have SET OFF the STATEMENT via an em-dash.
>hello Bob, —or Robert.
you have SET OFF the PARENTHETICAL with a comma.

As you can see, setting off the parenthetical implies there already was a parenthetical, where setting off a statement means you created a parenthetical. This is my whole argument—which is, again, just a nitpick of your word choice.
>>
>>100184690
You still do not understand what "parenthetical" means.
>>
>>100184782
a parenthetical statement is one which is offset by a use of a parenthetical device, such as commas, em-dashes, or even parentheses.
The fact you can't follow my argument even when laid out so clearly shows a lacking on your part, and has no bearing on the weight of my argument. Do try and keep up, my friend.
Glad to have been of service, and goodbye.

I doubt it's as simple as just counting transistors. I would guess there have to be some differences in manufacturing a part that generally runs at "low" clock frequency, like a big GPU running like 3GHz at most and a CPU running in the 5-6GHz range and pushing the process and design up to the limits of what can currently be made. The logic in a CPU is generally much more complicated too, since they need to run complex instruction sets with a lot of branching and so on, while GPUs are basically huge arrays of much simpler computer cores which are geared to just doing lots of math rather than running complex instruction sequences as fast as possible (with reordering, branch prediction, determining which instructions can run in parallel, etc.).

In practice this would at the very least affect yields I imagine, if a part of a GPU die is bad then you'll likely just losing a bunch of simple cores which just means you sell it as a GPU with fewer active cores. The same can be done with CPU cores of course, but since those are full of different and complex parts so if one such part comes out as bad you lose a lot more. For a 7800X3D in particular, that has a fully enabled CCD so that part cannot have broken components, plus beyond that I imagine it has to be a pretty good bin (in terms of voltage) because it needs to take the cache die on top, so that will drive up costs since making a 7800X3D requires using the better dies, not the mediocre or shit ones.

Also I think your 7800X3D transistor and die size numbers are likely wrong, they don't seem to include the cache die that's placed on top of the CCD since the numbers you've posted match a 7800X, the variant without the V-cache.
>>
Yield rates, which are probably worse when stacking chips
Supply and demand for whatever country you live in, 7800X3D is popular, 4060 is a midrange gpu
>>
>>100190407
The 4060 is the absolute lowest in the stack nvidia goes. Just because it has a 6 in the name doesn't mean it's mid range. It's low end.
