00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:06.879
i just never thought it'd be like this until

00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:11.280
i get it you know you want people to know you're you're still great for games

00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:17.520
but the thing is tactically launching an article proving

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:20.880
it on october the 7th the day before AMD's big announcement

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:27.920
this morning um is that while what you said was true

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:31.679
you had to know that it wouldn't be for long

00:00:29.119 --> 00:00:35.760
AMD's where gaming begins event just wrapped up and we've got some huge

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:42.879
updates to go through for you including dr lisa announcing that AMD's ryzen 5000

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:47.039
will officially be at the heart of your next gaming machine

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:50.960
you know what's in my heart though our sponsor glasswire with glassware you

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:58.840
can see if a strange device joins your Wi-Fi and block it instantly get 25 off

00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:58.840
today using code Linus at the link below

00:01:05.119 --> 00:01:10.799
AMD has been on a steady upward trajectory in the steam hardware survey

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:15.680
for the last few years and they recently cracked market share of more than a

00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:16.479
quarter of all pcs running steam which

00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.439
like if you're a pc gamer you've probably got

00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:26.000
steam installed that is a huge number and it's gonna get bigger we knew that

00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:31.360
AMD would be announcing next gen ryzen 5000 series processors based on their

00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:34.479
zen 3 architecture but we thought it was

00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:37.119
going to be the evolutionary this

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:41.920
is more like revolutionary not only has zen 3 improved the instructions per

00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:48.000
clock rate by 19 over zen ii but it manages to do so with

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:51.280
a claimed zero additional socket power

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.600
and the exact same TDP as before on top

00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:58.399
of that AMD has done away with the compute complex which means that now all

00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:04.000
eight cores on the die are able to communicate directly with not only each

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:07.280
other but also with their shared cash so

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:09.360
no more two by sixteen megabyte cash now

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:14.879
all of the cores have access to the entire 32 megabytes per die

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:20.160
that has huge implications for latency sensitive applications like games four's

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:24.800
n3 cpus were announced today and they followed the same naming format that AMD

00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:28.160
set with ryzen 3000 except that we skipped the whole 4000 thing because

00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:32.319
desktop mobile something something don't worry it's all synced up now so there's

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:36.640
16 cores at the top six cores at the bottom for now and they're all set to

00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:41.519
launch on store shelves together on november 5th that's right a hard launch

00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:48.879
and for the first time in a long long time AMD has seen fit to increase the

00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:51.200
pricing of their offerings above Intel's

00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:55.519
a ballsy move that may just work out for them honestly i'm not even mad as long

00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:59.840
as they pour that extra cash into r d and keep pc gaming's traditional cycle

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:03.519
of excitement followed shortly by buyer's remorse

00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:09.360
well and alive one disappointment is that AMD still hasn't managed to cross

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:11.040
that magical 5 gigahertz milestone but

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.680
boost clocks are creeping upward with 4.6 gigahertz being the slowest of the

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:20.000
bunch and when you combine that with the arguably more important massive

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:23.840
per-clock performance improvements you've got a recipe for speed based on

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:28.319
the slides that AMD showed off we're expecting gamers to see anywhere from a

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:33.519
20 to 50 percent improvement in performance over ryzen 3000 and with

00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:40.400
numbers like that AMD should roughly match Intel as a worst case or even beat

00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:43.200
them by up to 20 percent i mean cs go

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:48.959
used to be an Intel stronghold now more like uh flaccid hold

00:03:45.519 --> 00:03:51.200
AMD is now also claiming that 1v1 so

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:56.480
this is with just a single core working they can beat Intel by nearly 90 points

00:03:53.680 --> 00:04:00.080
in cinebench and like they already had a pretty big lead in productivity

00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:05.120
applications thanks to their higher core counts at pretty much every price point

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:11.599
furthermore they're claiming that the ryzen 9 5950x so that's the 16 core

00:04:08.799 --> 00:04:17.600
should beat Intel's core i9 for cad for the first time as well as pulling off

00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:19.120
nearly 60 more performance in v-ray it's

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:24.000
important to remember guys though that there's not really an Intel equivalent

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:29.360
chip to the 5950x at least on the consumer desktop so we'd like to see the

00:04:26.520 --> 00:04:34.479
5900x in those workloads too and we will make sure you're subscribed

00:04:31.280 --> 00:04:36.160
because uh Anthony's gonna be very very

00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:42.479
busy working on our review for these products better stock up on sweat bands and water

00:04:39.520 --> 00:04:47.280
bottles there Anthony lttstore.com baby now i know that matching Intel's gaming

00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:50.400
performance might not seem like that big of a deal to some of you out there

00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:56.240
but it is AMD fans and fans of competition

00:04:54.080 --> 00:05:00.960
in the CPU space in general have been salivating for over three years now

00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:04.240
watching AMD's trajectory versus Intel's trajectory waiting for them to meet so

00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:11.759
that that's right it was gonna happen eventually AMD would end up on top again

00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:15.039
i mean how long has it been core two

00:05:13.280 --> 00:05:21.199
14 years like i kind of need a moment here guys this

00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:26.560
is what AMD was talking about when they called ryzen disruptive this is industry

00:05:24.320 --> 00:05:31.039
changing and you might think that i'm being hyperbolic here so

00:05:29.039 --> 00:05:36.479
why don't we change gears and talk about Intel for a moment 10th gen core is

00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:42.080
still using Intel's to put it gently tried and tested 14 nanometer process

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:46.000
which to be fair to Intel does have better density than most competing 10

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:51.120
nanometer processes but the problem is that tsmc's seven

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:56.400
nanometer process that AMD is using is roughly as dense as Intel's 10 nanometer

00:05:53.840 --> 00:06:00.560
which Intel is already shipping in laptops so

00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:04.400
you know you might think Intel should be able to dust themselves off with the

00:06:02.479 --> 00:06:09.199
upcoming 11th gen core series codename rocket lake and come charging back into

00:06:06.479 --> 00:06:12.400
the fight right maybe

00:06:10.880 --> 00:06:17.360
thing is Intel is going to need to pull a serious rabbit out of their hat at

00:06:14.400 --> 00:06:23.120
this point because they've thrown every engineering solution at this problem up

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:25.919
to and including actually shaving down

00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:30.240
the physical thickness of their CPU dies to improve thermal conductivity so they

00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:33.520
can squeeze out a little bit more performance

00:06:31.440 --> 00:06:39.280
and making matters worse rocket lake is rumored to be yet another

00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:42.960
14 nanometer CPU although it's also rumored to be based

00:06:40.960 --> 00:06:48.400
on the same core architecture as tiger lake just embigant which means we may

00:06:45.919 --> 00:06:53.120
see a die area increase and consequently a power and thermal output increase

00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:57.520
what's that going to mean i don't know but it'll gain pci express

00:06:55.600 --> 00:07:01.440
gen 4 just in time for that to become important as next generation games start

00:06:59.599 --> 00:07:06.560
shipping with direct storage requiring high-speed ssds for data streaming while

00:07:03.919 --> 00:07:11.440
gaming and it's coming in q1 next year so in summary the best case scenario is

00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:16.240
Intel's missing the holiday season this year and the worst cases they're missing

00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:19.199
the holiday season next year so how's AMD able to pull off these kinds of

00:07:17.840 --> 00:07:22.800
games they tell us that thanks to their

00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:28.000
chiplet process they're able to run development on future cpus in parallel

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:33.599
and with zen 3 they're exemplifying that by simply plonking the new dies onto the

00:07:30.880 --> 00:07:38.560
same packages that zen 2 used complete with the same i o die as before

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:43.440
that also means that zen 3 is going to drop right into a 500 series motherboard

00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:47.919
running the BIOS that you may very well already have installed on your board

00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:51.680
crazy right although you will want to update to the latest when you get a

00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:55.840
chance for the best results as for the rest of the backwards compatibility

00:07:53.039 --> 00:08:00.400
story 300 series motherboard owners will need to upgrade to a new board but 400

00:07:58.479 --> 00:08:05.520
series owners can expect a BIOS update in january to enable support for the new

00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:08.560
cpus now AMD tells us that overclocking is going to be similar to what we're

00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:14.960
used to right now with memory being the primary focus but they gave us a little

00:08:11.919 --> 00:08:17.440
tease by saying and i quote it will be a

00:08:14.960 --> 00:08:20.960
breeze to set a variety of world records of your choosing

00:08:19.280 --> 00:08:23.680
what a terrifying thought for anyone who's wearing an Intel badge at work

00:08:22.479 --> 00:08:29.120
right now this is kind of like the old days when by the time game consoles got through

00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:33.200
their development process and launched they had already been outstripped

00:08:30.479 --> 00:08:36.719
because pc technology was going so fast like it's happening

00:08:34.800 --> 00:08:41.360
and i think it's fair to say that we've got AMD to thank for that

00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:44.720
okay and you you leather jacket wearing rogue you

00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:50.880
but don't get comfortable AMD's CPU day also included a sneak peek

00:08:47.839 --> 00:08:53.200
at the expected performance of big navi

00:08:50.880 --> 00:08:57.200
showing their upcoming GPU roughly in line with the rtx 3080

00:08:55.920 --> 00:09:01.760
that means if it's true AMD's GPU division has

00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:06.640
disappointed me many a time it may actually be possible to run a

00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:11.760
fully team red gaming rig on the high end again with a straight face

00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:15.440
like this again we'll have to wait and see what

00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:20.640
the real world numbers look like but so far AMD's probably feeling pretty

00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:23.680
confident right about now and it definitely helps on that front that

00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:27.839
NVIDIA had their foot off the accelerator for a generation with the

00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:32.240
rtx 2000 series as for when you can get your hands on this exciting new tech

00:09:29.839 --> 00:09:35.760
november 5th is the date to watch i don't know when reviews are going to go

00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:39.440
live yet but it's a pretty safe bet that that'll be on the fifth as well i am

00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:43.279
super excited to get my hands on these chips and i can't wait to see if we're

00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:47.440
wrong about Intel's response i mean who knows maybe a little time in the back

00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:50.959
seat just like the good old days will do them some good help them

00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:56.880
gather their thoughts and some cpus that people want to buy

00:09:54.399 --> 00:10:00.000
