00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.000
we all know the drill by now a new flagship CPU launches everybody gets

00:00:03.760 --> 00:00:11.360
hyped and then the lower end stuff comes out and nobody cares and i get it

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:16.960
quad-core processors that lag behind the competition aren't exactly headline news

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:22.880
but stop because this time everyone should care because AMD's zen 2

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:28.840
architecture outperforms Intel's coffee lake clock for clock and not only that

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:30.640
but today's new ryzen 3 chips the 3

00:00:28.840 --> 00:00:36.239
13 run more threads than the competition

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:39.360
with higher clock speeds to boot

00:00:36.239 --> 00:00:42.160
and that's not even all that AMD is

00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:45.840
doing to dick over Intel so stick around because it's going to be

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:50.399
a wild ride brought to you by glasswire glasswire

00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:54.640
shows you which apps are slowing down your connection in real time it's used

00:00:52.559 --> 00:00:59.039
by security pros to monitor for malware block bandwidth wasters and detect

00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:03.039
suspicious activity get 25 off today using offer code Linus at the link below

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:21.040
no my friends the biggest move here is the price the ryzen 3 3100 at 100 us

00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:26.240
dollars is about 20 bucks more than an Intel 9100f and looks to be a steal of a

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:31.840
deal for anyone who's looking to put together a budget gaming or content

00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:37.040
creation rig a secondary rig or a first time build thanks to its extra threads

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:43.360
and affordable price meanwhile at just 20 dollars more and 30 dollars less than

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:48.399
the core i5 9400f that it competes with the ryzen 3 300x

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:53.439
is maybe even more interesting now on paper it doesn't actually seem that

00:01:50.479 --> 00:01:57.680
different from the 3100 and while it has more threads than the core i5 it

00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:03.040
competes with it's actually got fewer physical cores four versus six and while

00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:08.080
it has more threads than the core i5 it's got fewer cores but as it turns out

00:02:05.759 --> 00:02:14.400
there's a big differentiating factor the 3300x uses a single ccx layout compared

00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:18.400
to the 3100s to ccx layout now if you're not too familiar with ccx's and their

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:22.160
importance don't worry about it basically what it means is better

00:02:20.239 --> 00:02:26.239
performance because it reduces the amount of time that the cores have to

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:30.959
wait to talk to each other that's really important for modern games and render

00:02:28.640 --> 00:02:35.680
tasks that might take advantage of four or more threads enough talk though our

00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:39.519
benches were equipped with ddr4 3600 memory across the board fresh installs

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:45.760
of Windows and the latest patches available to make things as fair as they

00:02:42.959 --> 00:02:51.519
can be and right away boy do we see what a difference zen 2 makes for gaming

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:54.160
compared to our zen plus ryzen 5 3400g

00:02:51.519 --> 00:03:00.480
frame rates are anywhere from 20 to 60 percent higher than AMD's previous

00:02:57.760 --> 00:03:05.840
budget offering king Intel's core i5 9400f does pull ahead by a few frames in

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:10.400
a couple of cases but overall it seems pretty comparable but remember guys this

00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:15.840
is at over 30 dollars more and the good news for team red keeps

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:19.040
coming even within AMD's own lineup 3rd

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:21.360
gen ryzen 3 ends up being disruptive for

00:03:19.040 --> 00:03:27.360
just a machine that's just for gaming on a budget man it's it's hard to convince

00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:31.760
me to spend another 50 to 80 dollars on a ryzen 5 3600 over one of these new

00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:36.799
ryzen 3's like wow

00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:42.319
for productivity once again the new ryzen 3 is absolutely embarrassed the

00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:45.440
last gen 3400g with a 25 higher

00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:47.680
cinebench score and a clean 15 to 20

00:03:45.440 --> 00:03:53.040
minutes shaved off the mozilla firefox compile time and the 3100 consistently

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:58.000
performs on par with even the more expensive core i5 even in heavily

00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:02.720
threaded workloads it is worth noting that here at least the extra budget for

00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:07.120
a ryzen 5 makes it a much better value for content creators though at least in

00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:11.519
my opinion compared to either the new ryzen 3s or team blues current offerings

00:04:10.480 --> 00:04:16.639
but lots of people don't care about that and only upgrade their computers for gaming

00:04:15.200 --> 00:04:25.040
so we're gonna try something a little different today the core i7 7700k still

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:27.600
goes for as much as 250 to 300 on ebay

00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:33.280
thanks to its reputation as a great high FPS gaming CPU incidentally it matches

00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:38.720
the four core eight thread layout on our new ryzen 3s and yet the gaming

00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:44.560
experience with these new ryzen chips manages to be in comparable territory

00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:49.600
for around a hundred dollars the ryzen 3 3 100 is typically

00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:55.360
within 80 percent of the core i7's performance level and the 3300x managed

00:04:52.479 --> 00:04:59.919
to stay essentially on par and this is at a lower rated power consumption and

00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:04.639
then making matters even better for AMD productivity tells us the same story

00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:10.240
ladies and gentlemen this is what it used to feel like this is what we used

00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:14.960
to see after two and a half years of CPU innovation feels good doesn't it both of

00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:19.520
the new chips ran cooler on our aio water cooled bench than the ryzen 5 3600

00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:25.360
but something to watch out for is that despite the identical 65 watt ratings

00:05:22.479 --> 00:05:30.000
it's clear that the 3300x outputs more heat and draws more power than its

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:34.479
little cousin at nearly 70 watts peak that means that while the box cooler

00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:38.800
easily handles the 3100 you may need slightly better cooling if you want to

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:42.720
max out the boost clock on the 3300x to be clear though i'm talking about

00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:47.199
upgrading to an inexpensive aftermarket heat sink not a pricey water cooler you

00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:50.680
can save the water for hydrating your body lttstore.com

00:05:52.080 --> 00:05:59.360
then for budget gamers who plan to use a dedicated graphics card these are some

00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:03.360
seriously potent little cpus and the news gets even better alongside these

00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:09.759
new chips comes the announcement of the b550 chipset which is going to allow

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:13.360
motherboards with not only full PCIe gen

00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:14.960
4 on the CPU lanes but also bifurcation

00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:21.280
so that means we're going to see multi-GPU operation by splitting the

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:23.759
primary 16x slot into two 8x slots for

00:06:21.280 --> 00:06:28.319
the first time on a budget chipset it even uses less power than the outgoing

00:06:26.080 --> 00:06:32.080
x470 does meaning that it no longer needs active cooling i am expecting our

00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:36.800
holiday buyers guides this year are going to have some very good things in

00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:42.160
store the only question left then is which 3rd gen budget AMD CPU to buy at

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:47.280
just 20 dollars more than the ryzen 3 3100 the ryzen 3 300x takes the crown

00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:54.800
for me and twenty dollars for what is essentially a core i7 7700k without the

00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:59.680
overclocking headroom is a breathtaking concept and it seems like unless Intel's

00:06:57.280 --> 00:07:05.280
10th gen processors significantly improve performance or slash their

00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:08.800
pricing AMD has now got the very high

00:07:05.280 --> 00:07:11.759
end the not quite as high end mobile and

00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:16.160
even the budget segment on lockdown now speaking of lockdown what's in your

00:07:13.840 --> 00:07:20.800
online security toolkit locking down your privacy on the internet adding a

00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:24.800
vpn lets you mask your ip and encrypt traffic to and from your devices and

00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:30.160
private internet access has reliable service with over 3 300 servers in 30

00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:34.080
countries they've got no bandwidth caps and they've got configurable encryption

00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:38.160
and an internet kill switch to keep you in control of your connection when

00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:41.199
combined with private browsing a vpn can even make websites think that you're in

00:07:39.599 --> 00:07:45.759
a different country allowing you to get cheaper flights haha not right now but

00:07:43.440 --> 00:07:49.199
maybe someday and take advantage of other benefits of being somewhere else
