00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:14,799
long time Techquickie viewer you know that we've had reservations about CPU

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,960
naming schemes for a long time Intel named a CPU lineup core 2

5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:25,279
even though some of those chips had four cores

6
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:27,920
then they gave us core 3 core i5 and

7
00:00:25,279 --> 00:00:32,880
core i7 despite the fact that they don't make any

8
00:00:29,679 --> 00:00:35,760
processors in any of those lines with an

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:40,320
odd number of cores and then this scheme was subsequently copied by AMD for its

10
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:44,480
new ryzen series and between you and me i've always

11
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:49,280
thought that celeron sounds more like a villain from a bee

12
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:51,520
movie about eating vegetables

13
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:57,520
now Intel is throwing precious metals into the mix now to be fair they are

14
00:00:54,640 --> 00:01:01,920
actually used in processor manufacturing but that doesn't help us understand what

15
00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:09,280
exactly it is we're buying so let's demystify the recently released pentium

16
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:12,400
gold and pentium silver chips from Intel

17
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,040
for starters pentium gold doesn't mean

18
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:17,920
that Intel has souped up a lower tier chip to be one of the most powerful

19
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:22,960
products ever i mean think about how easy it is to get

20
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:29,040
a gold credit card these days pentium gold is basically a rebranding strategy

21
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:32,720
for their standard desktop grade pentium cpus starting with the kaby lake

22
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:36,479
generation and since these gold chips are just

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:41,280
rebranded the good news is that you won't need any kind of special new

24
00:01:38,479 --> 00:01:47,200
socket or motherboard to use them one cool thing is that pentium gold cpus

25
00:01:44,479 --> 00:01:51,840
do feature hyper threading making them more like what core i3s were not too

26
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:56,159
long ago where things start to get a little less

27
00:01:53,920 --> 00:02:01,520
clear is when we get into the pentium silver lineup the name suggests that

28
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:06,960
it's kind of like a less nice version of gold but it's actually a really

29
00:02:04,479 --> 00:02:11,680
different product silver chips aren't available in boxes from your favorite

30
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:16,560
online stores rather they are lower power chips primarily designed for the

31
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:21,120
mobile segment where battery life is far more important than peak performance and

32
00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:27,440
although some pentium silvers will be desktop variants with slightly higher

33
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:28,879
tdps they all use bga sockets meaning

34
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,400
that they get soldered onto the motherboard rather than being removable

35
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:38,000
by the user they also use very different micro architectures while pentium gold will

36
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,959
continue to use normal desktop architectures like kaby

37
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:45,760
lake silver cpus are built around low power

38
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:50,400
designs similar to what you'd see in Intel atom processors in compact and

39
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:54,400
mobile gadgets however one thing that is interesting

40
00:02:52,480 --> 00:03:00,160
about pentium silver is that it will support hevc and vp9 video at 4k these

41
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:05,200
are compression standards that can deliver high quality video with less

42
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:08,720
data and with netflix using vp9 a pentium silver could be helpful if

43
00:03:06,959 --> 00:03:14,080
you're fighting battery life or bandwidth limits on mobile

44
00:03:10,959 --> 00:03:16,720
if you aren't silver also supports 160

45
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:20,720
megahertz wide wi-fi channels and while channels this wide can actually

46
00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:25,760
sometimes cause or be susceptible to interference they can enable faster

47
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:30,239
speeds if your router is up to scratch though this is also true of the slightly

48
00:03:28,239 --> 00:03:35,440
lower end celeron chips that are essentially the same but have lower

49
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:39,120
clock speeds or fewer cores so yeah i mean the features are kind of

50
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:43,280
cool but i'm not sure that Intel really clarified anything for us consumers by

51
00:03:41,519 --> 00:03:46,720
naming their wares after metals especially considering they recently did

52
00:03:44,959 --> 00:03:51,040
the same thing with the server grade xeon chips and that just ended up

53
00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:54,799
confusing everyone too hopefully though this clears things up

54
00:03:53,040 --> 00:04:00,080
enough for now and Intel won't decide to throw iridium

55
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:04,080
titanium and plutonium into the mix anytime soon which

56
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:08,080
yeah i should just probably stop giving them ideas

57
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:13,360
