Ask GN 16: VCCIO & PLL, Zen & Polaris for AMD, & FRAPS
216This Ask GN video covers topics pertaining to CPU overclocking voltage settings (briefly), AMD's make-or-break position with Zen and Polaris, FRAPS alternatives for Dx12 & Vulkan, and 980 Ti replacements. More here, as always: http://www.gamersnexus.net/
00:21 – obzen33: “Hey, Steve! Would you be able to explain these various voltage settings i found in my UEFI? They are VCCIO, VCC PLL and VCSSA. Thanks!?”
03:36 – centmarche: “Considering AMD's poor results over the last years in market shares compared to those of its competitors, if the next Polaris GPU lineup doesn't make AMD's market share go up, should we expect it to be the last generation of team red GPUs ? Same question for ZEN architecture on the CPU side.”
05:49 – Oberscht: “Okay, how about this one: Fraps hasn't been updated for three years. Do you know of any program that's going to take its place in a Vulkan/DX12 world? That is, a program with the usability, stability, and functionality of Fraps. So far I've only seen recommendations for software that only does parts of it, like videos, and not even in a good way, like Afterburner which crashed constantly and Shadowplay which requires fullscreen. Is there anything in active development that even comes close to Fraps??”
08:11 – Jonathan Cave: “I am tempted to sell my 980 ti now whilst i wait for Pascal and Polaris. Which of these looks more promising based on the limited information available as of now??”
