WEBVTT

00:00:00.199 --> 00:00:07.799
5 years ago I stood on this very Street and I told you guys how much I loved

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:12.040
AMD's roadmap if it hadn't been such an ethical issue I would have bought their

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:17.600
stock obviously that wasn't Financial advice and it still isn't but man did I

00:00:15.200 --> 00:00:22.640
ever nail it because the hits keep coming and it's all at Intel's expense

00:00:20.680 --> 00:00:27.599
there are a lot of reasons to be excited about the new CPUs that AMD just

00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:29.400
announced but I'm not here to just talk

00:00:27.599 --> 00:00:34.480
about that because there are also reasons to we only cautiously

00:00:32.040 --> 00:00:39.680
enthusiastic so let's talk about that but first this enthusiastic segue to our

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:43.480
sponsor pulseway Monitor and take control of your systems while you're on

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:48.000
the move and respond to it alerts right from your phone with pulseway you can

00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:53.160
try it for free today and secure 40% off any plan including their month-to-month

00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:56.199
options who wants 16% more performance

00:00:53.160 --> 00:00:58.559
for reportedly the same price yeah me

00:00:56.199 --> 00:01:02.879
too and that's what AMD is claiming to deliver with the ryzen 9 950x

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:08.240
considering that there's no bumping boost clocks or cash and their base

00:01:06.119 --> 00:01:12.759
clocks are actually a little bit lower that is a very respectable result and

00:01:10.759 --> 00:01:19.799
enough to absolutely blow the doors off of Intel's consumer Flagship The Core i

00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:21.759
94900 k now these are AMD's Z numbers

00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:26.079
and you should take them with a sodium tablet until we get a chance to run them

00:01:23.479 --> 00:01:30.040
through the lab but the performance leader is rarely the one that's going to

00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:35.720
be caught stretching the truth and there is no doubt that the performance leader

00:01:31.960 --> 00:01:38.439
right now is AMD unfortunately that's

00:01:35.720 --> 00:01:42.560
all AMD gave us as far as performance numbers go they are not sharing

00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:47.159
benchmarks for the rest of the 9000 Series lineup though they did give us

00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:52.280
specs for the ryzen 5 and the ryzen 7 that would indicate a similar

00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:55.439
performance uplift over last gen with a

00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:59.520
reduction in heat and power consumption

00:01:55.439 --> 00:02:01.000
to go along with the performance D until

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:06.680
that's sicker burn than you'll get from a core I9 it gets even better for the

00:02:04.360 --> 00:02:11.680
gamers out there precedent suggests that the five and the Seven class chips are

00:02:08.959 --> 00:02:18.239
going to be single CCD SKS making them the goto for minmaxer gamers that is at

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:23.200
least until we get an x3d variant which AMD hasn't announced at this

00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:27.920
time the most exciting part for me though is what's not new while AMD has

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:33.120
been hard at work on a new motherboard chipet to launch alongside these CPUs

00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:36.920
it's going to be on the same am5 socket that we've come to know and they've

00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:41.400
recommitted to their long-term relationship confirming support for am5

00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:47.280
until at least 2027 this is such great news if you

00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:50.480
already have a 600 series board you've

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:54.519
got to love just drop in performance

00:02:50.480 --> 00:02:56.760
upgrades but with how strong some of

00:02:54.519 --> 00:03:01.840
these new boards look I suspect some people are going to be tempted to

00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.840
upgrade anyway

00:03:02.040 --> 00:03:09.480
for one thing USB 4.0 is now standard on

00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:11.920
all x870 and x870 or extreme

00:03:09.480 --> 00:03:17.879
motherboards which means Thunderbolt 3 capability which is an optional part of

00:03:13.959 --> 00:03:20.599
USB 4 may become more common on AMD and

00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:26.760
the same goes for PCI Express Gen 5 which is now on all x800 series chipsets

00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:29.239
for both the GPU and for NVMe storage

00:03:26.760 --> 00:03:35.959
though how many ports are required to be Gen 5 remains to be seen PCIe Gen 5 has

00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:40.000
double the bandwidth of Gen 4 which while we aren't likely to actually use

00:03:37.640 --> 00:03:44.159
it to its full potential today means that devices can use fewer lanes for the

00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:47.959
same performance level that's going to pair nicely with the higher speed Expo

00:03:46.200 --> 00:03:54.280
certified memory kits that AMD is promising for this generation but wait

00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:58.519
there's even more am4 users are getting

00:03:54.280 --> 00:04:01.879
new Chips that's right the ryzen 9 5900

00:03:58.519 --> 00:04:03.640
XT and ryzen 7 5800 XT are coming to

00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:08.879
give you a nice little performance boost for your older system this puts am4

00:04:06.079 --> 00:04:14.280
users on par with the 13700 K and the 13600 K respectively all of which is

00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:18.400
pretty great but is anyone else feeling like something's missing like look over

00:04:16.280 --> 00:04:23.199
the spec tables again it's going to be kind of familiar maximum of 16 cores

00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:28.040
same boost clock same cash mostly the same TDP yeah IPC is up or instructions

00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:32.080
per clock so we're going to get more performance but does this feel a little

00:04:30.280 --> 00:04:37.000
bit like the Habit that Intel got stuck in during the years between the 2000

00:04:34.520 --> 00:04:42.120
series and 7,000 Series where each generation gave us modest speed

00:04:39.479 --> 00:04:47.320
increases or IPC increases and not much else I mean to be clear up to 16 cores

00:04:45.400 --> 00:04:53.199
is great compared to where Intel left us with four but there's something much

00:04:49.479 --> 00:04:55.440
more important missing here ryzen 3 I

00:04:53.199 --> 00:05:00.680
mean AMD strategy of selling their last gen product for a discount is an okay

00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:04.759
option for gamers and enthus and certainly AMD's pocketbook I mean you

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:09.440
can't blame them for wanting to get the most possible back on their R&D

00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:13.400
investment but it just stings a little knowing that unless you're one of their

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:18.919
most affluent customers you're not going to be able to take advantage of the IPC

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:21.479
and the power efficiency gains on this

00:05:18.919 --> 00:05:26.560
generation at least not if things keep going the way they are so I guess I've

00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:30.080
got a bit of a challenge for AMD guys it's easy to be the hero for Budget

00:05:28.520 --> 00:05:34.000
Gamers when your products aren't good enough for you to charge more but can

00:05:31.960 --> 00:05:38.919
you be better than Intel now that you're the ones on top cuz it really doesn't

00:05:36.440 --> 00:05:42.880
seem like it at the moment case in point the top end first gen Threadripper

00:05:40.880 --> 00:05:47.560
launched at $999 now even the cheapest one costs

00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:52.039
more than 1,400 that is where performance

00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:56.319
leadership has gotten AMD and it smells like complacency I hope it's not the

00:05:54.479 --> 00:06:00.360
case but I'm starting to feel like we need Intel to step up their game to keep

00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:06.000
AMD motivated to deliver better products for gamers rather than the other way

00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:12.800
around changing gear somewhat abruptly AMD also announced their ryzen AI 300

00:06:09.280 --> 00:06:14.960
series so Windows 11 recall is coming to

00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:19.400
x86 so woo sorry that was about as enthusiastic

00:06:17.479 --> 00:06:23.639
as I could pretend to be about that with 50 tops of neural processing compute

00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:28.000
these new chips are capable of the newest AI features and they were very

00:06:25.919 --> 00:06:33.240
clear about this they are doing it without emulation a roundabout

00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:37.000
acknowledgement that ARM might be more competitive on Windows than they might

00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:41.599
have hoped they also made bold performance claims about General non AI

00:06:39.919 --> 00:06:45.759
Computing performance saying that they could beat Apple silicon M3 in many

00:06:43.520 --> 00:06:48.560
workloads though it's tough to make an Apples to Apples comparison there and

00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:53.240
then against Intel I'm not even sure they see core

00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:59.280
Ultra as a competitor especially against anything that utilizes AMD's Radeon 800

00:06:55.599 --> 00:07:01.000
series integrated gpus AI or not AMD

00:06:59.280 --> 00:07:05.680
looks like they may be the better option for performance battery life and

00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:09.800
thermals as long as you don't mind paying the AMD tax through the grape

00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:15.440
vine I've heard that pricing for these upcoming stricks mobile chips is going

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:17.319
to be pretty friendly that is to AMD's

00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:21.319
shareholders in other good news for those folks AMD unveiled their epic

00:07:19.280 --> 00:07:25.000
Turin lineup which seems destined to capture even more market share from

00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:31.199
Intel's Bel leaguered data center division just like its predecessors did

00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:35.759
it boasts up to a truly daggering 192

00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:37.319
cores and 384 threads on a single CPU

00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:42.440
and while they didn't show any specific performance numbers for that particular

00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:49.199
CPU in the teaser AMD is claiming a 2 and2 to 5.4 times performance lead over

00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:52.400
Intel's Emerald rapid xeons depending on the workload I mean it's kind of a

00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:56.280
foregone conclusion that you're going to win when you have twice as many corses

00:07:54.159 --> 00:08:00.159
the competition but still impressive nonetheless seems like Intel's main

00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:04.000
selling point for the data center product seems to come down to

00:08:02.280 --> 00:08:08.639
manufacturing capacity at this point unless they've got an ace up their

00:08:05.400 --> 00:08:09.919
sleeves that uh I don't know about all

00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:16.520
of these new products are going to be hitting shelves starting in July which is very exciting news for AMD's

00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:19.599
customers but in spite of that I'm not going to be making the same bold

00:08:18.080 --> 00:08:24.120
statement predicting that their stock with Skyrocket that I did 5 years ago

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:28.639
while they have somewhat ridden the wave of AI excitement and may continue to do

00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:34.360
so I mean they did announce new GPU products as well as a one-year Cadence

00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:36.240
for AI processor refreshes I just don't

00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:44.160
know if I believe that they can close the gap against NVIDIA though I do hope

00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:46.399
I hope for a message from our sponsor

00:08:44.160 --> 00:08:50.279
pulseway what would you do if you were out of the office and a critical service

00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:54.040
on one of your systems crashed I mean you could drive in and try and sort

00:08:52.160 --> 00:08:57.640
things out that way but with pulse way it could be so much simpler you'll get a

00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:03.640
notification on your phone letting you know something went wrong and you can fix it right there and that even assumes

00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:07.680
that you have't already set up pulseway automations which can just sort it out

00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:11.839
for you in the background also if you want more control over system patches

00:09:09.800 --> 00:09:15.560
you can tell pulseway what where and when you want them to go through

00:09:13.680 --> 00:09:20.600
pulseway does it all and on flexible terms including a commitment free pay as

00:09:17.800 --> 00:09:25.680
