they've got chips stacked on chips they've got low end gpus they've got a
completely revamped mobile platform is there anything more satisfying than
competition because that's what this looks like AMD's CES announcements are
all responses to the competition be it defending the crown that they just took
from Intel or matching NVIDIA card for card but the question remains can a and
b maintain their dominant position or in 2022 are we witnessing early stage Intel
level desperation one thing certain things are getting very interesting

you could call what AMD is doing with the ryzen 7 5800 X 3D a stop Gap and
you'd be right to do so but it's a preview of what's to come let me explain
5800x 3D is mostly the same chip as
2022's ryzen 7 5800x it's got eight
cores 16 threads and actually slightly lower core clocks but it's got double
the cash at 64 Megs thanks to AMD's 3D V
cash technology which they first showed off at computex 2021 AMD claims this
makes it the world's fastest gaming CPU which is a claim we'll have to verify
for ourselves right now it seems more like a proof of concept in response to
Intel's recent successes more than anything else but at the end of the day
that's what competition looks like isn't it remember when Intel released the core
I9 9900ks to compete with ryzen's first true overtake with ryzen 3000 you're
going to need a beefy cooler in order to get the best performance out of it AMD
may not be as desperate as team blue was back then but little moves like this are
a way to stay competitive while the real response is in the oven but why is AMD
only launching one 3D V cash chip two
word Zen four baby I'll get it because it's
two words and a number anyway due out in the second half of 2022 Zen four is
emd's true next-gen complete with a new
socket am5 not much is known about what zenfor looks like just yet aside from
that it has a very interesting IHS design and that it's confirmed to be
manufactured on five nanometers but we do know the new socket will be using a
land grid array like Intel has for so long and the platform will support PCI
Express Gen 5 and ddr5 so AMD will be
right up there with Intel just in time for ddr5 to hopefully be worth buying
we're not sure whether EMD is planning to split their CPUs up into efficiency
cores and performance cores like Intel's been doing but chances are they're going
to bed big on 3D V cash but as much as desktop ryzen is what everyone's excited
about Mo Verizon is receiving a lot more updates albeit with a familiar problem
on laptops ryzen 6000 is going to be Zen
3 plus Zen 3 with 50 new and enhanced
power management features added onto it AMD please name desktop zenfor ryzen
7000 don't make the ryzen 3000 mistake again and buy a water bottle from
ltdstore.com doesn't matter what size you just make weird decisions when
you're dehydrated ryzen 6000 mobile shouldn't be defined by potential naming
conflicts though the integrated Graphics has been updated from Radeon Vega to
rdna 2 compute units that are according to AMD double the performance of ryzen
5000 mobile and even NVIDIA's mx450 supposedly falls behind the new Apu and
I can believe that the Xbox series s runs 20 rdna 2 compute units after all
and from what AMD has shown 1080p low on
AAA titles runs around 40 FPS average on
thin and light notebooks but it's not just about performance if you recall
Vega wasn't exactly a power efficient architecture an AMD is claiming 30 lower
power consumption for video conferencing and a whopping 40 Improvement in
streaming Netflix that equates to what AMD claims is a three hour battery life
Improvement for up to to 24 hours couple
that with ddr5 HDMI 2.1 usb4 and even
Microsoft's pluton security silicon you've got basically everything you'd
want in a modern laptop at least on paper we'll see starting in February
also launching in February are gaming laptops with new Radeon dedicated mobile
gpus the new rx6000s series tuned for
power efficiency and an updated rx6000m lineup running with higher clock speeds
and faster memory for what AMD is claiming a 14 or so performance
Improvement on average look for the 50s in the mid-range and high end and look
for the RX 6500m and 6300m on the low
end the latter of which is supposedly twice as fast as NVIDIA's GeForce mx450
that's not too surprising considering the rdna 2 apus are already supposed to
be as fast or faster than those so there you go NVIDIA is on notice it's
not the gpus themselves that are super exciting though it's how they integrate
with AMD's updated Advantage platform which now stipulates the new Radeon
graphics ryzen 6000 processors and freesync premium with 144 Hertz or
faster full HD and 120 hertz or faster QHD and 4K displays so the refreshed
gpus will be connected to some Quality Hardware not only that but there's new
Smart Technologies in the mix too smart shift Max which is basically just
version 2 of AMD's dynamic power balancing feature for ryzen and Radeon
mobile chips now works in more games and thanks to tweaks to its algorithm AMD
claims it provides better results in the games that it already did work with they
say it's about twice as efficient as the original version which isn't bad for a
2.0 they've paired this with what they're calling smartshift Eco which
effectively forces games to run on the rdna 2 Apu instead of the dedicated
graphics if the AC adapter is unplugged you can turn this on or off yourself but
this streamlines the process of making sure that your power settings are enforced when you launch a game on
battery to improve of endurance the final news smart technology is smart
access Graphics as we know by now a mux chip on a gaming laptop is a must for
best performance it switches the display between the integrated graphics and
dedicated graphics so they don't have to work through each other which improves
performance and responsiveness in gaming by up to around 15 percent and when
you're not gaming connecting directly to the integrated Graphics improves power
efficiency sag then is basically an easy marketing way to say that the laptop's
got one of these chips automatically riding the display signal which is great because nobody else is doing that right
now some of the first laptops out of the new Advantage Program with all of these
new features will be Alienware m17 R5 and the Rog zephyrus G14 the latter of
which Now features a webcam and I believe we have a Hands-On coming later
this week so make sure you get subscribed so you don't miss it final
noteworthy announcement is AMD's next entry-level GPU the RX 6500 XT it's got
a spicy 2.6 gigahertz game clock and a modest 16 compute units and 16 Megs of
infinity cash so you can expect 1080p medium or high depending on the game and
whether you want to use AMD's Fidelity FX super resolution scaling algorithm
which by the way will soon have a universal toggle in the driver in the
form of Radeon super resolution AMD claims about 20 to 60 percent more
performance compared to the GTX 1650 and they see they're targeting people with
multi-generation old gpus emphasizing that it's priced aggressively and being
manufactured in high volumes
we will see the release date is two
weeks away on January 19th with a suggested retailer price of 199 which
assuming you can actually buy one might actually be low enough to persuade
many desperate Gamers at this point that about wraps it up for NBC es
announcements I don't know about you but I cannot wait to get my hands on the
5800 X 3D and then Zen 4 later this year anything you're excited for any bets on
Intel's responses and Pat gelsinger sure won't take this line down
