1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,319
this is a big moment for me my career at

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:12,080
LMG began with the launch of the very first ryzen cpus in 2017.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,720
fast forward five and a half years and the socket that i cut my teeth on as a

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:22,800
tech journalist is finally at the end of its life cycle using the new am5 socket

5
00:00:19,439 --> 00:00:24,560
AMD's ryzen 7000 promises not only to

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:29,760
live up to the legacy they built with ryzen but also to humiliate the competition in

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:34,079
the same way they were in the before times and even more surprisingly

8
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:38,160
they might be bucking industry trends when it comes to efficiency

9
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:42,399
i might not need to buy a new power supply after all what i do need is to

10
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:47,120
tell you about our sponsor crucial the crucial.com website features

perfect upgrade in less than 60 seconds at crucial.com

14
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:14,080
AMD's first big announcements of the day were all centered around the ryzen 9

15
00:01:10,119 --> 00:01:16,560
7950x the 16 core 32 thread beast of a

16
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:22,320
CPU that can boost up to a staggering 5.7 gigahertz making it a massively

17
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:26,720
versatile piece of silicon from AMD's benchmarks which we should take with a

18
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:31,520
grain of salt it performs about 15 percent better on average over the

19
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:33,520
outgoing 5950x in 1080p gaming and up to

20
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:39,360
a whopping 40 percent better in content creation compared to Intel's core i9

21
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,520
12900k it's either as good or up to 24

22
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,360
faster depending on the game and as much as 62 percent faster in content creation

23
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,680
now obviously this depends greatly on the

24
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,640
workload AMD brought receipts by showing the v-ray

25
00:01:51,680 --> 00:02:01,200
renderer running on both chips now mind you v-ray is more geared towards GPU

26
00:01:58,399 --> 00:02:05,759
compute but this is an illustration of the wider design principles that AMD put

27
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:10,160
into the new zen4 cores built on what AMD calls a specialized n5 process

28
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:14,480
developed in close collaboration with tsmc the new chips accomplished their

29
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:19,840
performance targets while actually reducing dye area by 18

30
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:25,120
despite the addition of new features including the infamous avx-512 that

31
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:29,680
Intel deprecated for alder lake instead of using up die area with dedicated

32
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:35,840
space for this AMD is using the existing 256-bit structures but in a double pump

33
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:38,000
or ddr arrangement which they say causes

34
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:41,840
fewer clock speed fluctuations as all those transistors are constantly

35
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,239
changing state and crunching on those vast numbers

36
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:53,840
but hold up a second avx-512 is not for gaming and Intel's

37
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:56,800
more or less abandoning it so why is AMD

38
00:02:53,840 --> 00:03:01,760
embracing it well AMD's claim is that avx 512 will give ryzen a performance

39
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:05,760
boost in deep learning workloads which Intel has dedicated instructions for the

40
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:12,080
long and the short of it is that it should improve performance while having minimal downsides and a die that's

41
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:17,120
half the size of the competition though of course this is something we'll

42
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,560
have to test for ourselves but perhaps the most important consequence of this

43
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:25,200
shrunken die is power efficiency it's no secret that

44
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:29,920
the tech industry has been headed down the dark path of ever increasing power

45
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:36,080
draw for a while now and with the announcement that the ryzen 9 7950x's

46
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:37,760
TDP would increase by 62 percent many in

47
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:42,080
the tech industry feared that verizon 7000 would be another example of

48
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:46,720
throwing more power at the problem luckily for us AMD claims that this was

49
00:03:44,239 --> 00:03:51,280
done on the 7950x almost entirely for the extra headroom and in operation the

50
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:57,519
new chips have been substantially better in performance per watt than ryzen 5000.

51
00:03:54,799 --> 00:04:04,720
using the 16 core ryzen 9s is an example the 7950x manages 62 percent lower power

52
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:07,519
draw for the same performance or gets 49

53
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:13,200
more performance for the same power draw most impressively at a fixed 65 watt TDP

54
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:16,799
that number grows to 74 percent better performance which

55
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:21,440
would mean that rather than the new chips being

56
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:25,280
insatiably power hungry they're in fact

57
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:29,120
much more efficient i'm not sure that this isn't spin until i see it myself

58
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,600
but this is extremely exciting for future

59
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:38,160
efficiency builds if true as for how they've managed it AMD tells

60
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:42,160
me that it's a roughly 60 40 split between the physical die shrink along

61
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:46,320
with some tweaks and the design and all the lessons learned in the mobile space

62
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:51,280
including the all new six nanometer i o die with the new integrated graphics

63
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:56,240
processor now they didn't really talk too much about that new igpu in the

64
00:04:53,680 --> 00:05:00,479
presentation but they say that it's not going to be as powerful as what you

65
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:05,120
might find in an apu that its primary role is to bring up and expand displays

66
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:09,039
and to offload acceleration functions for video and code and decode

67
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:13,600
they specifically said that it wouldn't be something that people expect to game

68
00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:17,680
on which of course means that people are going to try and game on them like come

69
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:22,720
on as we reported before all of the new chips are going to have this new eye GPU

70
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:25,199
thanks to the i o die and if you're not

71
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:30,240
GPU limited you're going to get a lot more performance in games because AMD

72
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:35,919
has further improved the front end with some tweaks and a doubled up l2 cache

73
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:41,520
giving the ryzen 979 50x a grand total of 80 megabytes of combined cash to play

74
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:47,840
with as anyone who's followed our rising coverage from day one knows keeping the

75
00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:50,080
beast fed is half the battle and this

76
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:54,240
should help tremendously AMD's testing showed a 13 instructions per clock

77
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:58,880
uplift over ryzen 5000 thanks to these tweaks to design when they had

78
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:03,759
previously expected eight to ten percent and those clocks are much higher what

79
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:09,440
will also help is the transition to pure ddr5 for the new socket am5

80
00:06:07,039 --> 00:06:14,800
the nerdiest among you like myself will already know this but tldr

81
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:19,840
socket am5 is a brand new platform that finally transitions AMD to using a land

82
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:24,319
grid array like Intel or threadripper do today instead of a pin grid array as

83
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:29,440
previous generation ryzen processors used this increases the pin density in this

84
00:06:27,039 --> 00:06:33,199
case 1718 and reduces the likelihood that you'll

85
00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:37,440
break your CPU just by putting it down wrong no word yet if they'll need that

86
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:41,680
eight dollar walmart CPU frame to prevent flexing but the extra pins will

87
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:47,600
allow for more power to flow to the socket up to 230 watts and allow for

88
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:52,960
more bandwidth to and from ddr5 memory and pci express gen 5 which comes

89
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:56,160
standard on all chipsets for the NVMe storage that AMD says we'll see in

90
00:06:55,039 --> 00:07:01,440
november but for the GPU gen 5 will only be

91
00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:05,440
supported on the two extreme series chipset variations

92
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:09,440
now AMD says there is zero performance difference between the chipsets in stock

93
00:07:07,039 --> 00:07:15,120
operation and that they should differ really only in io and power delivery for

94
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:17,120
overclocking which all chipset variants

95
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:21,680
do in fact support AMD's claiming that they'll support am5 until at least 2025

96
00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:25,680
which i mean that's like two and a half or three

97
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:31,199
years from now given that am4 lasted for twice as long and was host to five whole

98
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:33,520
generations of cpus we can only hope

99
00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:37,520
that this is a case of under promise over deliver and hopefully they'll over

100
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,400
deliver on their new expo RAM specification too this is AMD's answer

101
00:07:39,759 --> 00:07:48,080
to Intel's xmp and was announced a few months ago but AMD says that we should

102
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:52,479
see over 15 kits available at launch at up to 6 400 mega transfers per second

103
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,360
xmp memory will still work but AMD figures this will make it a lot easier

104
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:59,759
for vendors to tweak sub timings for ryzen and in typical AMD fashion the

105
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:04,160
spec is fully open to the public the pricing for the chips themselves hasn't

106
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:09,360
changed compared to ryzen 5000 except the 16 core ryzen 9 which is

107
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:13,360
seeing a 100 discount for the newer chip like what is this bizarro land like in

108
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:19,599
this economy they're gonna do a discount anyway i don't have the sales data but it seems

109
00:08:17,039 --> 00:08:23,680
like a good bet that the 5950x didn't sell as well as AMD had hoped after its

110
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:28,240
price hike over the previous generations 3950x

111
00:08:25,599 --> 00:08:33,039
or perhaps they just felt embarrassed to have the most expensive desktop CPU on

112
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:37,200
the market i'm like Intel's 12900 ks to shoulder that now instead interestingly

113
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:42,959
the only ryzen 7 option announced today was the 7700x

114
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:45,120
not the 7800x my guess would be that AMD

115
00:08:42,959 --> 00:08:48,560
will use that name for the 3dv cache variant later on

116
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,440
probably sometime later this year they said maybe early next year i'm not

117
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:57,839
entirely sure most exciting for gamers though is that

118
00:08:53,519 --> 00:08:59,760
AMD's 300 ryzen 5 7600x seemingly

119
00:08:57,839 --> 00:09:05,040
competes with and wins against the core i9 12900k

120
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:07,279
a CPU that costs more than twice as much

121
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:10,880
as with any claim from the manufacturer this is something that we're going to

122
00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:14,720
have to verify but it's also something that we're excited for especially if

123
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:19,839
there's overclocking headroom available given its 5.3 gigahertz stock max turbo

124
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:24,000
speed no word yet on any less expensive non-excuse though AMD says that they

125
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:27,360
expect the lineup to expand in a similar way to ryzen 5000 so we're probably

126
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:31,519
looking at next year sometime for true budget

127
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:37,040
options from team red this entire event was about ryzen but AMD being AMD they

128
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:41,040
just couldn't help but talk a little bit about our dna 3 as well which is

129
00:09:39,279 --> 00:09:45,440
apparently going to feature a 5 nanometer chiplet based design that AMD

130
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:49,120
claims will provide a 50 performance per watt improvement over current gen Radeon

131
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:54,640
gpus again a big win if true next to the

132
00:09:51,680 --> 00:09:58,800
looming shadow of rtx 4000 they showed off a bit of gameplay as a teaser but

133
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:02,720
that's really all we got i guess we'll just have to stay tuned

134
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:07,120
the too long didn't watch though is this

135
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:09,600
ryzen 7000 looks far more of an upgrade

136
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:14,880
than people initially feared and it doesn't look like it's just gonna be

137
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,959
ryzen 5000 on ddr5 of course

138
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:22,240
this is all stuff we have to verify for ourselves again i keep saying that but

139
00:10:19,279 --> 00:10:25,839
it's true and we'll have a review as soon as we're able to launch it the

140
00:10:23,839 --> 00:10:29,920
whole am5 platform including the four cpus they're launching with it will be

141
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:33,760
coming out on september 27th and AMD says that they're confident in their

142
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:37,839
ability to keep up with demand now we've heard that before but hey we

143
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:45,120
can always hope just like we can always hope for a response in kind from team blue and for

144
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,720
a segway to our sponsor oracle oracle's

145

smartest and coolest people around at oracle's cloud world event you can learn

155
00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:31,279
more at the link down below thanks for watching guys this is a uh well it's

156
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:35,600
been a while since we've done it on location shoot hasn't it maybe we can

157
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:39,120
look at some of the previous rising releases like the ryzen 5000

158
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:43,600
