100Doge coins for the first person who can explain me what is Reference GPU/VGA or alike
(for non-admin only) admin can give me explanation but i wont give the reward.

in my understanding, reference cards GPU/VGA are cards manufactured by different brands but solely uses the design of AMD

non-reference cards use edited designs

so example, sapphire 7950 or msi 7950 are non-reference?
Anu nman examle ng reference?

Sa pagkaintindi ko, AMD / ATI releases a complete schematic for their vidcard design kapag nag launch sila ng bagong modelo.

Kapag sinabing reference design, yun manufacturer (examples are sapphire, msi, asus) just gets the design that AMD released and implement / execute said design using their own fabrication facilities.

Kapag pure 100% reference ang implementation ng manufacturer, lahat ng bahagi ng vidcard sumunod sa plans ng AMD, mula sa cooler design, speed and cooling capacity ng fan, rating ng memory, hanggang sa layout ng PCB, at sa quality and rating ng mga capacitors na ginamit.  I think of it as carpintero na sumunod lang 100% sa plano ng architect/designer.

Pwede rin naman na "piecemeal" ang tinutukoy ng reference, like, reference "cooler" design.

Yun mga non reference, usually yan ang mga tweaked versions ng vidcards na nakikita natin. Kc dba, u would assume that AMD's plans are good enough. Why mess with it? Unless u plan to improve it.

SO anyway, most commonly, these nonreference vidcards are recognized by their nonreference cooler design na presumably superior sa "reference" cooler design ng AMD. But beyond that, the more high-end versions can take advantage of the full potential of the platform by using (for example) more memory, higher grade memory, factory overclocked core speeds, better capacitors, in order to provide more voltage to the core and memory, in order to support the overclocked settings and overall overclockability.

Imagine how it works: para sa mga topline na vidcards, the manufacturer practically does "binning" wherein they test the overclockability of the components they plan to use, then separate the components into bins -- yun pasado at yun palpak.

The overclockable components are used for the premium models.

The not-so overclockable components are used for the "Stock" or "reference" versions.

I hope tama ang mga sinabi ko LOL
