Wait, the 'npu' -shares- ram with the rest of the system? they didn't lay that out with it's own segregated memory?

@munin yeah, that's...
Honestly RAM is so cheap I'm surprised they didn't just add it's own ram solely to avoid having to manage access to ram by the CPU & NPU.

@foone we both remember the jank-ass video cards from the '90s without onboard ram lol

@foone

lol you know to this day I still immediately think of the video bus first when someone mentions that load of horseshit?

@munin That's probably for the best. Someone mentions that crap and you're just "mm, GeForce 2 MX... That son of a gun could really play Max Payne 1 and Deus Ex!"
