Technology: breaking the hegemony that monopolizes the world

How many opponents are there at this price of 4888?

Quest 2 is the second generation of independent virtual reality helmet from Zazong Facebook. The original Quest virtual reality headset was released in Xiayin Star Calendar 1019. It has achieved great success in the market and even won the "Best Product of the Year" honor.

It is very popular in foreign countries, but there is no room for Facebook and Haitao in Daxia, so sales are sluggish, and the highest grade can be obtained at a price of about 4,000.

And what configuration is it?

Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 64GB / 256GB of storage, the highest display resolution is 1832 x 1920 per eye, and the initial refresh rate is only 72Hz when it starts.

Can this stat beat Suiren's K1?

Does it match?

It doesn't deserve it! It's not a level thing at all.

But last year, Facebook’s total sales of this second-generation helmet reached 10 million units. So how will K1 perform?

Of course, there is a strong opponent for the single helmet at this price, and that is the STEAM VR single helmet. The current gold price is exactly 4888.00.

However, its highest performance is only 144Hz in the experimental mode, and the binocular resolution is 1440×1600.

As the top brand of V agency on Steam, STEAM VR has also rushed to the weekly STEAM sales list several times, which shows its ability to attract money.

But if you compare it with the K1 helmet sold by Suiren, it is garbage sorting.

What kind of garbage is it?

Fatty G, who can't count three, ushered in a strong enemy in his career!

Many CEOs, technicians, and VR enthusiasts of technology companies want to experience the full body of the K1 helmet, that is, the feeling of using all the "unimportant things" that Gu Qing said.

The things in the promotional video are almost the same as the promotional videos made by ordinary sci-fi movies and VR equipment manufacturers themselves.

It looks like a gimmick, but veterans in the industry think it is a bit "ordinary".

It can't be that the things in this promotional video can be made by ordinary users, right?

Gu Qing didn't take care of the thoughts of these industry insiders. In his view, or in the view of the participants of the K1 helmet project team, there is no K1 competitor in the market. If there is, it is K2 It's time.

He went on to say: "The price of the K1 helmet body is relatively cheap, but the chip performance of its body is not top-notch, so if users want to experience the ultimate enjoyment, they also need high-performance host computer-aided processing to run large-scale 3A games. required data."

Gu Qing's words made people from manufacturers such as Nvidia and AMD breathe a sigh of relief.

At first, they thought that Kyushu Technology was really strong enough to be on an equal footing with them in terms of graphics processors.

But before the breath was relieved, Gu Qing's next sentence made them raise it again.

"So, in order to push the display effect of this helmet to the best level, we developed a Titan processor equipped with an APU. It is also the last flagship product to be released at the press conference tonight."

APU what? ? ?

Not only was there a barrage of question marks in the live broadcast room, but there was also a lot of discussion at the press conference.

Of course, the brain circuits of the technical masters like Lao Huang and Su Ma are turning around very quickly.

In short, APU is a chip formed by combining GPU and CPU, but with the soaring power consumption and performance of the current chip, this combination will easily cause the processor chip to be burned out due to high power consumption and heat dissipation problems. , and too much integration is not conducive to the development and profit of a single project.

It is relatively simple to break through in one direction. If you want to break through in multiple directions, the difficulty factor will increase exponentially.

For example, in recent years, Intel Core, Nvidia N-series graphics cards and other leaders in the electronic product industry, the hardware upgrade mode of their main products is nothing more than adding cores, adding memory, and optimizing the structure.

Because they only need higher performance. As for issues such as power consumption, heat dissipation, and compatibility, other departments and companies are naturally responsible.

And to do APU, it is simply thankless.

Others' CPUs have been upgraded for two or three generations, while APUs may still be stagnant.

So in the eyes of many people who know the tricks, Kyushu Technology is no longer bragging, but thinking about flying before learning how to walk.

Perhaps because he felt a little embarrassed that this cake fell, Gu Qing sighed and said: "Others have sharpened their swords in ten years, built their architecture in three years, and made a big leap in five years. But the release of the Titan processor, I am excited In addition, there is some emptiness.

Because this processor can run not only Windows system, but also Pingguo system, Android system, Unix-like system, and our Gonggong system. And it is greatly optimized for online games, large stand-alone machines, deep learning, and video rendering.

After its release, some products we are familiar with will definitely be forced to leave the market.

Alas, every time something familiar fades away from my life, I feel the passing of time.

Not much to say, let's look directly at the specific data of the Titan processor. "

Gu Qing, who was still flirting with her forefoot, suddenly became an elite in the industry after snapping her fingers.

"The Titan processor has two models, Titan P and Titan C. Titan P uses Xiaxin Technology's 14nm process foundry, and Titan C uses Xiaxin Technology's 5nm process foundry. Neither of them adopts chip stacking. Instead, the CPU and GPU in the traditional sense are placed on one motherboard.

The production capacity of Titan P is sufficient, and it can supply ordinary players to play mainstream online games and 3A masterpieces. The specific parameters are as follows:

(What are you looking at? It is the performance of the 12th generation I5 plus RTX3070, which is really not worth mentioning.

Of course, the protagonist of this press conference is the bottom of the box. I would like to give you a little news here. A certain research and development personnel in our R\u0026D department surnamed Zhang gave the full name of the project for Titan Processor C: Titan Processor Super Invincible model. "

Gu Qing's little joke made many people in the audience and the live broadcast room laugh out loud, and the whole world suddenly became a lively ocean.

Of course, except for companies such as Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Pingguo, etc., and a certain R\u0026D staff surnamed Zhang who blushed.

Facing the dull eyes of old Huang, Gu Qing continued to introduce after everyone laughed: "The performance of Titan C can definitely meet the production needs of our game players and ordinary workers.

Its CPU core adopts the mature hybrid structure of large and small cores on the Chenxing chip, with a total of nine large cores and 36 small cores, for a total of 45 cores.

In terms of the GPU chip module, it not only adopts the 5nm process technology of Xiaxin Technology, but also cooperates with our Daxia Dajiang storage, giving it a large video memory of 48GB, with a memory speed of 29.2Gbps and a power consumption of 400W. "
