"It's enough to be stronger than the core graphics of Intel I3 and I5." Wang Yixiao said: "At that time, it will be integrated into X3400 and X5400 for core graphics."
Yu Longxing nodded: "Okay, there is another team that is developing high-performance graphics cards RTX 960."
"Even if you can't beat the high-end graphics cards such as GTX 970 and 980 that Nvidia will release in the second half of this year, you will have to catch up with the mid-range graphics cards GTX 960 released next year!"
"Okay, it's great to catch up with the GTX 960!"
Wang Yi will not give unrealistic goals to the graphics card department.
Interestingly, Yu Longxing’s graphics card naming rules are also referenced to the graphics card leader Nvidia.
Nvidia has not yet launched ray tracing and has not started to enable "RTX". Instead, it is using GT to represent entry-level graphics cards and GTX to represent high-end graphics cards.
So Yu Longxing also named it after "RT" and "RTX", and accidentally snatched Nvidia's future RT and RTX.
This is fun.
"When will the RTX 960 be handled?" Wang Yi asked.
"According to the current progress, it is expected to be leaked in December."
"Slow, too slow." Wang Yi waved his hand:
"According to customary practice, NVIDIA's GTX 960 will be released in January next year. Our RTX 960 will be completed in December. When it is launched, it will have to be next February or even March. This is too slow. By then, it will not be a match for NVIDIA's GTX 960 at all."
With similar performance, even if Xingyi Technology's RTX 960 is cheaper, users prefer Nvidia's GTX 960.
A new graphics card brand and a super overlord of graphics card are incomparable.
"Our only way out is to go public two or three months ahead of NVIDIA GTX 960. Only before the GTX 960 was released and before it was launched, our RTX 960 was successfully released and launched. Only in this way can we grab a large number of mid-range graphics card orders."
"If we wait until January next year, the Nvidia GTX 960 will be released, we are really not doing anything."
Yu Longxing understood Wang Yi’s plan, and this was a time difference.
The RTX 960 cannot beat the GTX 970 and GTX 980 released in September, but can rely on its price advantages and cost-effectiveness to win the mid-range market before the release of the GTX 960!
This is indeed the only opportunity!
Yu Longxing was a little embarrassed: "It is indeed the only way out, but according to the current progress, it is difficult to advance and there is not enough manpower."
"If there is not enough manpower, then increase manpower!" Wang Yi made a quick decision:
"Yu Longxing, you divided the R&D team of RT 630 into two, and a small number of people stayed behind. Continue to upgrade the RT 630. In this way, integrating it into the CPU for core graphics should be able to benchmark or even surpass the fourth generation of I7 core graphics."
"All others have been incorporated into the mid-range graphics card R&D team, and they are fully committed to promoting R&D speed, striving to ensure that RTX 960 can be used in advance and be launched in advance!"
The RT 630 has been upgraded. Although it is only comparable to Nvidia's entry-level independent GT 640 in 2012, it is enough to use a core graphics card.
Such configuration, watching videos, listening to music, playing CF, and LOL is perfect.
As for the 3A masterpiece, don’t think about it.
But if you can make a dessert mid-range graphics card comparable to the GTX 960, there will be no problem.
As for high-end graphics cards comparable to GTX 980, it would be difficult.
But it's okay, you have to eat at a sip and walk step by step.
Let’s get the mid-range graphics card done first!
"This is OK!" Yu Longxing responded decisively, and this is the best arrangement: "With these people joining, RTX 960 may be able to release the film in September and be launched in November."
‘Is November? It’s still too slow.’ Wang Yi said in his heart.
Nvidia GTX 960 was launched in January, and Xingyi Technology's RTX 960 was launched in November. It was only two months away, and it was not enough, so it couldn't sell much at all.
And many people will give up buying in order to wait for Nvidia.
In response, Wang Yi looked at Yu Longxing:
"Although the first graphics card RT 630 of the graphics card team is not very successful, it is still worth encouraging. In this way, the graphics card team has been officially upgraded to the graphics card department, with all the standards and benefits improved. The staffing needs to be all increased!"
"???" Yu Longxing was stunned.
RT 630 did such a bad job. Today he thought he would be scolded.
As a result, Wang Yi not only did not scold him, but also comforted him and encouraged him, but also upgraded the graphics card team to the graphics card department!
This is equivalent to a shotgun replacement.
Last year, the graphics card department was not established, with only some employees of S3 recruiting some engineers to build two graphics card teams.
One is responsible for entry-level independent graphics RT 630.
A mid-range graphics card RTX 960!
In comparison, Williams' CPU department has many soldiers and many generals.
Five lines and five R&D teams were opened at one time.
Benchmarking the one of I3, the one of I5, and the one of i7.
In addition, there are two server chip R&D production lines, both high and low!
Comparison between the two, the difference is immediately judged.
This is the difference between a team and a department.
But now, Wang Yi has also upgraded the graphics card research and development team to the graphics card department.
All treatment, manpower and resources have been improved!
"Chairman, thank you, I will do my best to get the RTX 960 out as soon as possible!" Yu Longxing said with a smile.
Wang Yi nodded: "After the New Year, we will recruit a large number of soldiers to increase the team's manpower and strength, as well as product lines. Not only will the mid-range graphics card RTX 960 be fully developed, but high-end graphics cards must also be laid out!"
"Okay, Chairman, I will make every effort to advance. After recruiting troops, the R&D speed will definitely be greatly improved. I will issue a military order, and RTX 960 will strive to be released in July and will be launched in September!"
"Okay!" Wang Yixi raised his eyebrows and waited for this sentence!
In September, Nvidia will release a new generation of high-end graphics cards, GTX 970,980.
Although it is very powerful, it is also very expensive.
As for the dessert graphics card GTX 960, it will be next January.
There is no way. If you release the dessert GTX 960 together in September, you will buy 960, and then the GTX 970 and GTX 980 will not be sold anymore.
On the contrary, you can only sell expensive high-end graphics cards first and make a lot of money. The subsequent price is too expensive to sell, and then you can produce a dessert mid-range card GTX 960.
Lao Huang's sword techniques and abacus have always been very accurate.
Unexpectedly, he met his nemesis!
Nvidia is afraid of delaying the sales of GTX 970 and 980, so she doesn't want to release the GTX 960 as soon as possible, but Wang Yi is not afraid.
Lao Huang doesn’t publish it, Wang Yi will publish it to him!
Even the time is similar.
It's all in September.
That’s right, as soon as Lao Huang released the GTX 970 and 980, Wang Yi will release the RTX 960 directly!
Although the performance is a little weak, the price is very good.
The simplest thing is, everyone knows that the GTX 970 is more powerful, but it costs 2499.
The performance of Xingyi Technology's RTX 960 is slightly worse, only 1499 or even 1299!
How do you choose a user?
Most people will choose RTX 960.
After all, many people have not had a high budget for assembling desktops these days.
With the monitor, the total budget for the full set is only 4,000 or 5,000 yuan, which is the choice of most people.
There are still many budgets below 4,000. As for 7,000 to 10,000, it is only a few.
In this way, the proportion of users with a graphics card budget of 1,000-1,500 is more than 60%, or even 70%.
At this price, you can only buy NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti, which is definitely not as good as Xingyi Technology's RTX 960.
This is also an opportunity for Xingyi graphics card to grow bigger.
Wang Yi thought about this and began to recall it carefully.
Recalling the performance changes of these generations of graphics cards.
From 2014 to 2015, Wang Yi was in junior year to senior year and graduated from university in July 2015.
In addition, I was a computer professional in my previous life, and I am very familiar with the performance of these graphics cards.
At that time, I could say that I knew it well and remembered it like a stream.
Even if students can't afford the GTX 980, the parameters are clear.
Now decades have passed, and my memory has faded a little.
I can't remember the specific ones, but I can still remember the general performance gap.
Wang Yi kept recalling, and suddenly his expression became very exciting.
He remembered several major events.
The first big event was that the GTX 750 ti released in February became a generation of god U with its outstanding performance and ultra-low price, and its sales soared.
The second major event is that the GTX 980 in September was limited in September, which is 15%-20% stronger than the GTX 970, but the price is 60% to 70%, the price is extremely low, and the sales are very small!
The GTX 970 is very cost-effective and has a huge sales volume.
The third major event is that the GTX 960 in January next year also has poor performance, 30%-40% behind the GTX 970, and also has poor sales, making the GTX 970 the highest-selling model of the same generation.
But the good times didn't last long. The GTX 970 video memory door exploded and Nvidia's reputation collapsed, resulting in a decline in sales of more than 20%!
In the end, AMD's contemporary graphics card sales soared!
After thinking about this clearly, Wang Yi laughed.
I'm lucky, there's nothing I can do about it.
Who would have thought that this generation of NVIDIA graphics cards had a low cost performance and a 980 performance that was useless. Finally, it was a 970 that could be played. It was really a magical U-shaped figure, but it turned out that the graphics memory door appeared!
I can only say that if I don’t commit suicide, I won’t die!
But in this way, it is an opportunity for Xingyi Technology.
There are rare opportunities to encounter.
After all, Nvidia's first-generation graphics cards have all failed, but they have rarely encountered them, or even never.
But this time, I met it.
In response to this, Wang Yi looked at Yu Longxing decisively: "Which graphics card is the RTX 960 you developed? "
"Chairman, our target opponent is the GTX 960 released in January next year, but this graphics card has not been released, and we don't know the specific performance. It can only be used as a reference, and the previous generation of sub-high-end graphics card GTX 780 is the target!"
Wang Yi nodded. This was a very reasonable strategy.
In theory, the new generation of mid-range graphics cards will surpass the previous generation of sub-flagship graphics cards.
For example, the GTX 960 will theoretically surpass the previous generation of GTX 770, but not as good as the GTX 780.
Therefore, Yu Longxing took the performance of GTX 780 as a reference and developed the RTX 960 without any problem.
If nothing unexpected happens, the final performance will also be close to that of the GTX 960.
But who would have thought that Nvidia's GTX 960 has failed!
The GTX 960, which should have been stronger than the GTX 770, was too poor, and it was not as good as the GTX 770!
That way, it will be fun.
If the RTX 960 is developed based on the performance of GTX 780, the final performance will beat Nvidia's GTX 960, and it can even be arguably matched with the GTX 970.
After all, the performance of the GTX 970 is slightly stronger than that of the GTX 780.
If so, it would be fun.
Xingyi Technology's RTX 960 can completely continue to reverse the GTX 960, soaring into the sky, and surpassing the level of the GTX 970!
That's not a mid-range graphics card, but a sub-flagship graphics card!
Of course, even if you can't compare, there is a little difference, and it doesn't matter.
If you are not strong enough, you will get it over.
If the GTX 970 doesn’t fail, it will naturally be better than Xingyi Technology’s RTX 960!
But once the 970 video memory door fails, it will be worse than Xingyi Technology's RTX 960.
Many consumers will give up Nvidia's 970 and choose Xingyi Technology's RTX 960!
Sometimes the enemy's overturn is also a kind of strength.
Wang Yi had a conspiracy: "Yu Longxing, Nvidia is a powerful opponent. Just refer to GTX 780 for research and development. Only in this way can we have the hope of winning the other party's mid-range graphics card!"
Wang Yi did not mention the 960 failure, but deliberately said that it would be very powerful.
Only in this way can Yu Longxing do his best.
Those who plan the best can get the most, and those who plan the most can get the most.
"Yes, Chairman, I know the gap, so we have to do it higher and stronger."
Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction: "In addition, we have to make arrangements and give enough sincerity."
Wang Yi knew that the NVIDIA GTX 970 video memory door was just cutting corners and lacking sincerity.
Nothing else, Nvidia officially described that "the GTX 970 graphics card is equipped with 4GB of graphics memory", but in fact it is '5GB high-speed graphics memory + 5GB low-speed graphics memory', and it was not clearly stated in the publicity.
In addition, the video memory bit is wide, and the promotion is 256-bit, but in fact it is 224-bit (5GB) + 32-bit (after 5GB)!
This directly leads to a sudden drop in frame rate and stuttering under high load!
In this regard, Wang Yi wanted to say that Nvidia could play.
The second flagship graphics card, 2,500 oceans, the result is frame drop and the stuttering!
This is a joke.
As you can imagine, the GTX 970 video memory door exploded and sales plummeted!
I can only say that Lao Huang plays with knife for many years, but ends up killing himself.
And this is the opportunity for Xingyi Technology.
It’s the opportunity for Xingyi Technology RTX 960!
No, then, just name the RTX 960 as RTX 970, and directly compare with the GTX 970.
The GTX 970 that has not been overturned may not be able to compare with it. But if it has been overturned, frame drops, and stutters, it will be easier.
If this battle is successful, Xingyi Technology's graphics card will really be completely defeated with Nvidia and become a god in one battle!
Such opportunities are hard to come by!
Just like Samsung's mobile phone chips, they are no match for Qualcomm before and after.
But just next year, Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 will fail, and Samsung's Orion 7420 will become the gods in one battle, taking the opportunity to step on Qualcomm to take the lead.
Although it's a bit tricky, it's very effective.
Similarly, Xingyi Technology's graphics cards can also be defeated by the entire Nvidia series and become a god in one battle!
"Yu Longxing, come on. What support is needed? The entire group will fully support you!" Wang Yiyu said earnestly.
Yu Longxing's expression changed slightly, and he understood in his heart that the greater the support, the higher the requirements!
It is the upgrade of the graphics card department, recruiting troops, and the entire group is fully supported!
With so many resources and support over, if he ends up being awkward and RTX 960 is useless, then he will be finished.
It probably won’t be a layoff, and the chairman may send him to the Golden Triangle or Africa!
But Yu Longxing knew that he had no choice and no way out!
We can only do our best and strive for success.
Make RTX 960 good and strong!
It is best to be able to match the GTX 780, which is equivalent to the GTX 970.
In this way, even if the compatibility optimization is not as good as Nvidia, the actual experience can still be used to lock in the mini coin GTX 960.
It can be regarded as living up to the chairman's trust.
But what Yu Longxing didn't know was that if he really did this, he would be comparable to 960, but also to 970.
After all, Nvidia's generation's 960 and 970 have both failed.
However, Wang Yi will not point out this point, let alone say more.
On the contrary, giving Yu Longxing more pressure will be better.
The 27th day of the twelfth lunar month is approaching.
After Wang Yi and Song Sining hugged each other, they would go home.
The year of running around finally ends.
"Si Ning, don't be busy during the Chinese New Year. Stay with your family and have a few more days of rest. Let's talk about work after the Chinese New Year." Wang Yi said with a smile.
"Yeah." Song Sining nodded obediently, tiptoed, kissed Wang Yi lightly, and then left reluctantly.
Like last year, Wang Yi had already sent someone a sumptuous New Year gift to the Song family.
Similarly, Song Sining also prepared a lot of gifts for Wang Yi's parents.
Afterwards, Wang Yi also returned home.
I first saw the two elders, and the next day the family returned to their hometown.
I have to say that with photovoltaic power generation, the three old men finally gave up on electricity.
Home air conditioners, large refrigerators, water heaters, massage chairs and other home appliances are all available.
The water purifier was also pressed, but there was no way. The water quality in the northern region was hard, and the TDS was more than 400.
My hometown is full of underground deep well water. The water quality is good and there is no pollution, but the water quality is harder!
Without a water purifier, the half-month kettle would have to have an extra layer of scale.
But with the RO membrane reverse osmosis water purifier, it is easy.
"Dad, the water purifier filter element must be changed frequently, and the water quality here is poor." Wang Yi instructed.
"Don't worry, every time I go back to my hometown, I will pay attention in time. Once reminded, I will change the core immediately. The people who install it have given a lot of spare filters."
"That's good. If I don't come back in time, you will have to work hard."
"Haha. Boy, why do you do this to me? It's already great that your grandchildren can care so much about the old man. Look at your Uncle Sun's son, every day... forget it, don't talk about these."
Wang Qingzhi didn't say much. He rarely talked about others unless he really couldn't stand it.
Sun Shu Sun Zhisheng, Wang Qingzhi's childhood friend.
The two grew up in the village together, but later Wang Qingzhi was admitted to college and worked in the county town, and later bought a house and a car in the county town.
However, Sun Zhisheng's family did not pay attention to school and worked early to make money, but in the end he did not leave the village.
What's even more fatal is his son Sun Guangyi.
Not only did I drop out of school early, but I was not doing my job properly.
Some time ago, under the pretext of my grandfather being critically ill and treating him, I asked my relatives to borrow money from him.
When I saw that the old man was critically ill, how could I not get some?
As a result, I raised 60,000 to 70,000 yuan and found out that the old man was in a tough state.
The truth is revealed, and I will find this kid again. I will run away with money early, and I don’t know where I will go.
Sun Zhisheng was so angry that he almost committed high blood pressure.
Last time when Wang Qingzhi came home, Sun Zhisheng wanted to cry when he talked about this.
Wang Qingzhi was helpless in this and could only comfort him again and again.
Wang Yi learned about the causes and consequences and sighed: "What can I say? Family style issues."
"Family style?" Wang Qingzhi was speechless.
Wang Yi said lightly: "Sun Guangyi's family has never paid attention to education since his grandfather's generation. This is their family tradition. Good luck, his descendants are as diligent as Uncle Sun, and they work hard all their lives. If they are not lucky, they are Sun Guangyi."
Wang Qingyi was speechless when he was speechless, and suddenly realized that Sun Zhisheng, his brother, younger brother and sister, both graduated from elementary school and at most junior high school.
The next generation, Sun Guangyi dropped out of junior high school. The children in Sun Guangyi's uncle's family were all born in the 1985s and 1990s, and they stopped going to school early. The most promising girl was only barely going to college.
It has been passed down from generation to generation, and has not attached importance to learning and education from generation to generation, resulting in generations...
On the contrary, when Wang Qingzhi was young, the old man often said, "You guys, even if you study, even if you take the exam, your father will sell you in a bad way!"
At Sun Zhisheng's family, he became a big boss in his family, "whether he is doing well or not, education does not matter. Whoever has the primary school education has become a big boss!"
"It's really a family tradition problem." Wang Qingzhi couldn't help but sigh.
After counting three generations, they are basically farmers.
But some people rose up in their parents and went to the city to develop. Some people rose up in their parents' generation, namely, the post-80s and 90s, went to the city to develop.
Of course, the future post-00s and post-10s will be the same.
In the future, rural areas will become aging and towns will become hollow, leaving only a group of elderly people to bask in the sun.
As for young people, all those who can go out have gone out.
Rarely stay in the village.
After all, there are no primary and even middle schools in the town. Not to mention third-level hospitals, there are not even first-level hospitals. There is no job and no supporting facilities, so I really can't stay.
But beings like Sun Guangyi can only run around. In the end, they spend all the money they cheated, and they will most likely have to go back to the village to stay.
This is true for his generation, and his next generation will not be surprising.
Family style or concept is very important.
Like Wang Yi's grandfather, he didn't have much ink and was also an ordinary person who farmed and moved bricks to support his family.
But even so, thirty or forty years ago, I firmly believed that reading can change my destiny.
When the neighbors and neighbors saw their children drop out of school and work, they applauded. Wang Qingzhi also wanted to work to relieve the burden on the family, but he almost broke his leg by the old man.
He forced him to go back to study and eventually went to college in that era.
Only then did I have a good job in the county town, buying a house and a car, and settling down.
As long as nothing unexpected happens, parents will give you a down payment. The next generation will work harder and settle down in the city without much pressure.
This is how Wang Yi in his previous life. Even though he was not reborn, he was not the chairman of Xingyi Technology, but just an ordinary worker. As soon as he graduated, his parents prepared money and bought a house for him.
It was just a small house in the city center and a large flat floor in the Dadong Suburbs, and Wang Yi chose the latter.
The whole family had a hearty lunch.
"Grandpa, the house is still cold. In this way, I will clean up with my grandma in the afternoon and go back to live with us?" Wang Yi said.
The old man waved his hand: "During the New Year, it's still the New Year atmosphere in my hometown. It's boring to go to the city. Few people I know. In my hometown, I and those old friends played chess, chess, and basked in the sun, so comfortable."
Grandma also said, "Xiaoyi, don't worry, there is air conditioner at home, it's not cold, we can't freeze. There is a yard at home, and it's warm. We grow some vegetables, which not only exercises our own health, but also grows healthy."
Wang Yi was silent, and Wang Qingzhi also smiled and said, "It's okay, son, don't worry. Your mother and I live in the county town and we will come back in 20 minutes by car. As long as there is no special situation, we will come back every week. And your uncle, we will come back often, so don't worry."
Wang Yi also bought a large flat floor for his parents in the city.
But the two elders didn't go to live, and they still lived in the county town.
Chapter completed!
