Messi warns Barcelona that they can’t win the Champions League by playing in the way they were playing before the Coronavirus break

0

The Coronavirus pandemic has halted all the major football leagues and the Champions League as well. But things are looking bright now. Bundesliga is the first major football league to resume its 2019-20 season on 16th May. LaLiga is also working hard towards resuming the season.

Barcelona has started individual training for their players. Messi was asked about the Champions League second leg last-16 tie against Napoli, ahead of a possible August restart. The four-time Champions League winner issued a warning for Barcelona.

Messi told Sport.”I never doubted the squad we have and I have no doubt that we can win all that remains, but not by playing in the way we were playing.”

“Now, everyone has their opinion and they are all very respectable. Mine is based on the fact that I was lucky to play the Champions League every year and I know that it is not possible to win it by playing as we have been playing. Perhaps Setien misunderstood.”

“This break may end up benefiting us, but we are going to see if they can start the competitions and there we will leave doubts because we will check the level that we have or can reach when we start. Going back to training is a first step but we should not trust ourselves and we must continue taking all the necessary precautions and assume that we have to start playing the games when they arrive but behind closed doors.”

“Personally I am looking forward to the competitions. We know that everything is going to be weird, without fans in the stadium and with the theme of the concentrations that we really would not like to have to be separated from our families. You have to see how it looks.”

Messi added: “Physically I feel very well. I was training at home these days and I think it helped me to keep fit. Very hard confinement, but with the children and with Antonela everything ends up becoming moments that I try to enjoy all together.”

AMD Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU launched at $1,899

0

The Red team has recently launched a new 7nm based CPU for industrial/professional usage. The new Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU is aimed towards works like 8K video editing, broadcasting and media, computer-aided engineering (CAE).

AMD lacks in the professional GPU front and here NVIDIA shines with some its flagship GPUs like the Quadro RTX 5000 or the even costlier NVIDIA Quadro GV100. AMD says that its new GPU can be the cost-efficient solution to the Quadro RTX 5000 and a great alternative towards the Quadro GV100.

As we see in the picture, NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000 costs $2299 while the AMD Radeon Pro VII costs $1,899, on the other hand, NVIDIA Quadro GV100 costs $8999. According to the infographic shown below, AMD has rightfully compared its new GPU against its competitor’s both the offerings.

AMD Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU launched at $1,899

The AMD Radeon Pro VII GPU has a 7nm based Vega 20 architecture with 3840 stream processors and 60 Compute Units. It features 16 GB of HBM2 4096-bit memory with 1TB/s memory bandwidth with support for ECC memory.

The card has a combined Peak Double Precision (FP64) Performance of 13.1 TFLOPs when compared to NVIDIA, the Quadro RTX 5000 which has only 5.6 TFLOPs of FP64 performance and Quadro GV100 having 7.4 TFLOPs of FP64 performance only.

AMD Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU launched at $1,899

Featuring the latest PCIe gen 4.0, the GPU offers 4 times more PCIe bandwidth and the Infinity Fabric Link gives the ability to directly connect two GPUs together via an ultra-high-speed interconnect, effectively forming a combined pool of GPU memory, which can increase performance and reduce latency.

AMD Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU launched at $1,899

AMD’s Infinity Fabric Link is said to be 118 GB/s faster than NVIDIA’s NVLink between two of its Quadro RTX 5000s, the new increased PCIe gen 4 bandwidth makes things much more faster for the red team.

The AMD Radeon Pro VII has 6x DisplayPort 1.4 along with one 8-pin and one 6-pin connectors. It has a lower TDP of 250 W compared to the 295 W TDP of the previous Radeon VII.

The GPU’s 6 display ports can handle up to six FHD displays together or a single 8K panel. Four of the GPUs can be combined as a cluster and can be synced via an AMD FirePro S400 Sync Module called “The Chief”, this helps to drive up to 24 displays in sync for digital signage or walls. 

AMD has comapared the GPU’s performance against the Quadro RTX 5000 in the following images:

Both of GPUs go head-to-head with each other with AMD having a little advantage and most important it keeps cooler than the NVIDIA counter-part. The key performance that the Radeon VII Pro enjoys is during digital compositing in Nuke 12.1 and 8K editing in DaVinci Resolve Studio. 

The new AMD Radeon ProRender 2.0 technology is a powerful physically-based rendering engine that enables creative professionals to produce stunningly photorealistic images.

Built on AMD’s high-performance Radeon™ Rays technology, Radeon™ ProRender’s complete, scalable ray tracing engine uses open industry standards to harness GPU and CPU performance for swift, impressive results. AMD even claims that the ProRender 2.0 can reduce render times by nearly half when combined with a Ryzen Threadripper CPU.

AMD Radeon Pro VII workstation GPU launched at $1,899

The AMD Radeon Pro VII will make its way to the market from mid-June 2020 at $1,899 (US) whereas, the OEM Workstations powered by Radeon Pro VII are expected to make its way in the second half of 2020. Check out more about the GPU from here.

0

Bundesliga is the first major football league to resume the Coronavirus hit 2019-20 season. The season will resume on 16th May. The games will be played with a gap of 2-3 days.

The DFL have announced that they will introduce the rule that was set by the International Football Association Board (IFAB) last week which allows teams to make more changes during a game. They will permit up to 5 substitutions per game.

This new rule will help in protecting players from the increased injury rate due to playing every 2-3 days. The clubs can rotate the players more often thus decreasing workload.

The DFL said in a statement posted on their official website: “With a view to the game operations in the current 2019/20 season, the clubs have decided that the replacement contingent will be increased to five players per team in one match.”

“From now on, each club will have a total of three opportunities to exchange players during a game, including the half-time break. The DFL ‘Football Commission’ recommends that a maximum of two players being substituted at the same time.”

There’s a huge hype around the world regarding the Bundesliga as it is the first and only league to resume after dealing with the Coronavirus pandemic. Hopefully, the glory days are back for the football fans.

AMD Ryzen 7 4700G Renoir APU with 8 cores & 16 threads appears on benchmarks

0

When AMD launched the 7 nm Renoir APUs for laptops in CES 2020, we expected it to launch the APUs for desktop as well but it did not. Now, as the launch of Ryzen 4000 desktop processors approaches mostly likely we will witnessing next-gen Renoir desktop APUs.

Back in December 2019, a Ryzen 3 4200G APU was spotted on SiSoft Sandra OpenCL listing, now again @_rogame has discovered an 8 core APU named AMD Ryzen 7 4700G. It seems surprising but 8 core can be true because the die size has shrunk considerably with 7 nm process.

This time AMD will most likely have all the Ryzen 3, 5 and 7 offerings on the APU front, the aforementioned Ryzen 7 4700G has 8 cores and 16 threads. It was seen paired with Radeon RX 5700 XT on Ashes of the Singularity benchmark where it scored 6,400 points on low 1080p settings.

The test benchmark also had 16 GB RAM which helped it to attain an average framerate of 65.6 FPS. A Zen 2-based APU will boost high performance on both CPU and GPU front which might feature 8 compute units (CUs) but the clock speeds remain unknown but might be similar to that of the Ryzen 9 4900HS with 1,750 MHz GPU clock speed.

Most users will use the APUs independently without any discrete GPU and if 3 GB VRAM is allocated from the 16 GB RAM then we might expect smooth 1080p gaming performance overall. Well, the TDP seems unclear but can remain the same as 65 W because of its efficiency.

AMD Ryzen 9 4900U with 8 cores & 4.3 GHz boost clock spotted on 3DMark

0

The Red team’s Ryzen 4000U mobile processor series is quite impressive with its amazing efficiency as well as performance both on the CPU and GPU front. Last month we had a leak of the alleged Ryzen 9 4900U featuring 8-cores and 16-threads on UserBenchmark.

It then had a base clock speed of 1.8 GHz and a boost of up to 2.35 GHz, now a new leak uncovered by @TUM_APISAK states that the APU is real and does have a base clock of 1.8 GHz along with 4.3 GHz which is 100 MHz higher than the Ryzen 7 4800U.

The APU runs on an “AMD Majolica-RN” motherboard insipte of running on an “AMD Ted3-RN” motherboard. There’s no solid details about the number GPU cores and the TDP which is expected to be 15 W.

As AMD has Ryzen 9 H-series and HS-series processors, it is very likely to see a Ryzen 9 4900U as well for higher-end slim notebooks. It might be in works for AMD and as now not many notebooks with Ryzen 4000U APUs are there in market, with days eventually, we could see the Ryzen 9 as well to counter Intel.
