I wonder how those would crunch since they are designed for computation rather than gaming graphics.

Nobody uses Windows in data centers. Hyper-V and Linux are the operating systems of choice. Wait for a consumer version to ship shortly down the road once AIB makers get some products ready.

I wonder if its complete lack of display output connectors would make connecting a monitor difficult. Silly clickbait title/thread. It Can't Play Any Games: Radeon Instinct MI60 Has No Display Output ConnectorsFixed the title.

It should do very very well with Milkyway with its double precision (DP) computations I have a feeling the GPU will cost several thousands of $$$ From over at TaaT forums. Listing the best DP, Milkyway cards. AMD announces two new server GPUs called MI60 and MI50, using the Vega architecture ported to 7 nm process and revamped in the double precision department (among else): AMD MI60 ............................................... 7.4 TFLOPS theoretical peak FP64 throughput AMD MI50 ............................................... 6.7 TFLOPS peak FP64 (edit)AMD FirePro W9100 (Hawaii XT) .......... 2.6 TFLOPS peak FP64 AMD Radeon 280X (Tahiti XTL) ..... 0.8 - 1.0 TFLOPS peak FP64 Nvidia Tesla V100 ................................... 7.5 TFLOPS peak FP64 Nvidia Titan V.......................................... 6.9 TFLOPS peak FP64

Read a couple days ago that AMD had the volta crippled during the tests to make the MI look better. They had the tensor cores disabled. They didn't try to hide it as it was pointed out in the footnotes but still.... marketing fudgery? They responded to that being called out and stated a reason for them to be disabled. Source

Not faster (in FP32) since it's basically the same architecture, but it will be much faster in FP64 HaywireHaywood Read a couple days ago that AMD had the volta crippled during the tests to make the MI look better.

You know, #poorVolta  They done the same with the release of Vega 10 and the old MI
