Moore Threads’ Latest GPU: MTT S50

Chinese GPU manufacturer Moore Threads has introduced the MTT S50, a mid-range addition to its S-series lineup. The S50 features 2,048 MUSA cores, 8GB of VRAM, and an 85W TGP, making it a versatile option for both office tasks and budget 1080p gaming.

Key Specifications:

• Memory: 8GB VRAM
• Memory Interface: 256-bit

The S50 is positioned between the higher-end S60, S70, and S80 models and the lower-end S30 and S10 models. Despite similar specs to the S60, the S50 offers slightly less computing power, rated at 5.2 Teraflops of FP32 performance compared to the S60’s 6 Teraflops.

Gaming and Compatibility: Moore Threads advertises the S50’s excellent 1080p performance in lightweight titles like CS: GO and Dota 2, particularly on Linux. However, the company’s graphics drivers have been a significant drawback, impacting gaming performance compared to competitors like Nvidia and AMD.

Additional Features:

• API Support: DirectX, Vulkan, OpenGL, OpenGL ES
• Resolution Support: Up to 8K
• Video Encoding/Decoding: AV1, H.265 (HEVC), H.264
