China’s Moore Threads MTT S80 GPU Review | A New Challenger Appears

This video looks at the history of the relatively new Moore Threads Technology, a recent competitor in the GPU space that was founded by a former NVIDIA employee. Moore Threads is part of a recent boom in China's domestic silicon design market, and it just shipped its first consumer GPUs -- the MTT S80 and MTT S70. We're benchmarking the MTT S80, testing the drivers, looking at the (awful) power consumption characteristics, and talking about implications in the market.
