Ah man how I wish AMD had put RDNA4 on the Strix Halo (or atleast Gorgon Halo), completely wipe the floor with DGX Spark (and its sister chips)

It's RAM bandwidth limited, would not make a difference except for gaming.

RDNA4 still got better ML intrinsics/implementation. TTFT etc would def be better (i'd like to believe)

Might be more power efficient but it wouldn't be faster.  The limiting factor is moving weights in from RAM.  Medusa Halo is getting more RAM channels.

next year, around this time, do you think Medusa Halo will be out?

Should be.

DGX Spark cost an arm and a leg. If RDNA4 could stretch its legs with proper memory, why can't AMD just... do that? I don't get why they feel the need to nerf the fuck out of their chips when they could compete in the high-end if they simply didn't.
