    Big Mess in Intel GMA Sections

    in Submission & member moderation

    Posted

    Did you actually red the whole thread? I guess you didnt. Cause else you wouldnt have come to the conclusion that I want to mix desktop and mobile counterparts in one category.

    Actually I "fight" for over 5 pages now to alter _exactly_ this situation!

     

    Yes I read the thread, and I don't see what you really want or would make you happy. On one hand you say that you want separate categories, and on the other hand you come up with the "same hardware" argument just as here:

     

    Mobile and Desktop CPUs feature the same gpu in any aspects so no new extra separated sections. Also Intel says that there are no differences.

     

    If we handle things like that Im fine with it.

     

    For me it seems as if you simply like to act as kind of "hwbot cop", reporting tons of submissions just because you're not happy with the definitions of certain categories.

    That approach doesn't make sense, if all those submissions needs moderation then it's necessary to clean up the categories in advance, so that they can get moved to the proper place. Else the involved moderation work is just a waste of time.

     

    So what we need are clearly defined categories for the concerned hardware, and we need this *before* reporting random dozens of random submissions, as this won't help anyone at all.

     

    How about finishing your list in post #34, it looked like a good start to me...

    Still, apart from clockrates its same hardware.

     

    This kind of argumentation is void.

    If you take a closer look at mobile hardware you will notice that many parts have their desktop equivalent, e.g. the GTX 680m uses the exactly same ASIC as the desktop GTX 670 and yet it is out of the question to put both in the same category, for very well reasons.

     

    The mobile i7 920XM is equivalent to the desktop i7 920 when you look at the ASIC, and again - both have its own categories.

     

    Some parts are even exactly the same except for their stock clocks, e.g. 5850m vs 5870m and yet they are not in the same category either, once again, for good reason.

     

    It's totally pointless to start moving mobile parts in the same category with its desktop equivalents, mobile and desktop are two completely different worlds.

     

    You realizing that it is usual for chip manufacturers to have mobile and desktop applications for their products is no reason to make "same hardware" the only criteria for a category.

    Or should we put the GTX 680 in the same category as the GTX770 as well?
