shout out to Corsair for sponsoring our content here at computex 2018 check out
their hydro series pro liquid coolers at the link below all right so when we
arrived in AMD's uh i don't know hall or whatever whatever this place is
this demo frankly it sucked um i mean they were showing off their wraith
ripper cooler which will be available separately for their threadripper 2 cpus
it's got a 120 millimeter fan and i mean really the notable thing here is that
it's a 32 core processor under there and it's air-cooled
but it didn't even have any cables plugged into the back and we couldn't we
couldn't play with it at all so i was like
really you guys i mean come on you know like come on and they
were like okay Linus for you
so guess what we actually get to show you guys not what it's called not what
speeds it's clocked at or anything like that because this is still early stages
stuff but they are saying that it's going to be 12 nanometer it's going to
be up to 32 cores and 64 threads though
we don't know the exact other core configurations that might be available
we do know that it's going to have all the same extra tech built into it as
ryzen second generation so that includes their new boost algorithm and all that
kind of stuff although when you don't know the clock speeds then you can't know the boost speed so performance is
very much tbd and what we also know is that it's going to be tr4 socket
compatible and a drop in replacement for
your x399 system with a BIOS update
finally they agreed to let us run
blender on it so we can see yes in fact
this is real hardware i think i hit the right hotkey hold on f12 go yes
so this is real hardware 32 cores
64 thread so that is four by eight
times two and look at it rip so this is a custom
AMD scene you guys aren't going to be able to render this at home and
extrapolate the performance of it because there's still a lot of work to
be done before this is released sometime in q3 of this year but if you
guys were hoping for you know AMD to one-up the
core enthusiast overclockable processor
that they showed off last year well then
yeah that's the plan 32 cores and yes it
will also be overclockable
also of note is finally an actual card
so there's a vega nano follow-up to their previous nano card um i don't
actually know too much about the specs of this one i think it's like kind of vega 56 based
uh three display ports HDMI anyway what actually caught my eye other than
threadripper 2 of course was this see this like pile of laptops and then
like also this more laptops AMD finally has a
compelling enough mobile CPU that they
are winning a serious number of designs
with third-party manufacturers everyone from uh there's a huawei unit on the
other side there dell oh this is interesting this is the
first ever AMD CPU in a dell business
latitude notebook this one's a little bit chunky and businessy this is the one
that really stood out to me this is the hp envy x360
13 and it is a super slim and yet fairly
beefy little unit so you got your usb over here you got your cooling vent here
micro sd it's man this thing is crazy thin over here you've got a volume
rocker type c and another usb a and then of course
because it's part of their x360 line you can convert it into a tablet should you
see fit now it goes up to a ryzen 7 2700u that is a quad core eight thread
processor and its vega 10 graphics is
apparently running at the full 15 watt TDP of this chip so the performance of
it will actually be very similar pretty much identical to its 14 inch and 15
inch brethren probably the most notable thing about this
is that this notebook is an AMD exclusive
for years at the very best AMD got kind of a
hopefully very similar equivalent to the Intel unit but
apparently hp is so confident in this design that they built a laptop right
around AMD's product which is like i
mean threadripper is cool but this
is where a microchip processor makes real money and takes real market share
from their competitor speaking of taking market share from
competitors hydro pro series coolers are their
quietest ever they've added a quieter pump their
magnetic levitation bearing fans and a brand new compact RGB pump head with
vibrant RGB lighting because you know you can't have the quietest most high
performance gaming experience without that RGB so check it out at the link in
the video description so thanks for watching guys don't miss any of our computex coverage by making
sure you're subscribed and we will see you at the next suite or booth or
whatever which way is it going which way should go no
he got away
