So will need to upgrade from coal to nuclear power lines to feed it...

lol

#

I doubt casual people will ever realize that bug

#

Btw, you should post that in software channel too, some people probably wonna know it since Defender is being used by a large majority of freeware users these days already

swift gyro
#

5.8 is more realistic 🙂

swift gyro
#

also something in your article that I don't believe

#

"max clocks(1T)" is ~5.8 GHz for both amd and intel

#

and nobody believes that

#

especially not with the v-cache variant

#

AMD needs both an insane cooling solution for the cores and seperate voltage for the cache for that to be a reality

#

in other words

#

your article is full of shit 🙂

#

It is likely that Intel will retain the prices of its chips moving forward. Intel only bumped the pricing up by $50 US when they doubled the core counts from 8 on Core i9-11900K ($539 US SEP) to 16 on the Core i9-12900K ($589 US SEP). Since Raptor Lake isn't a doubling and is mostly a refinement of Alder Lake, we can expect the pricing to remain the same and at most, hit the $599 US mark. AMD's flagship is likely to cost around $700-$800 US which means that Intel may have a big edge in price to performance segment.

#

if you even try to digest this pile of shit

#

good luck to you

This assumes that 7900xt will be the highest model 🙂

I suppose CPUs became thinner and Mainboard designs did not consider that at all. Reminds me of iPhone6 bending w/o real pressure

frigid pilot
#

I hope this problem is not on all mainboards… Don‘t wonna take the extra effort first to buy in EU just to get return right covered for this bullcrap

swift gyro
#

It’s not about the cpu becoming thinner, it’s about the cpu getting larger as there are more pins, and intel uses a design from a previous era meant for far less pins.

#

In 12th gen intel jumped from 1200 to 1700 pins

#

Almost 50% increase without increasing the locking mechanism to match

frigid pilot
#

Oh I didn‘t pay attention to the pin numbers. The increase is indeed large

swift gyro
#

They cheaped out on the locking mechanism

#

The same mechanism used by $750 12900ks on a $2000 asus Maximus board is shared by a $70 pentium with $70 motherboard

#

AMD has an appropriate socket design so they don’t have this fix

#

And now for another fun fact

#

Der8auer worked with TG to develop this fix into a product

#

There are much cheaper alternatives on websites like aliexpress

#

Ali recently removed listings of the cheaper mechanisms for German visitors to the site

#

It’s not even something you can patent

thin void
#

so 1800 pins vs. 1200 pins is 33% more

swift gyro
#

Good for you

#

Enjoy your socket issues

#

Make sure to count the rotations correctly

thin void
# swift gyro Enjoy your socket issues

0 issues for me, since I'm not using the original locking mechanism.
actually I have nothing that locks the CPU inside the socket.
so no bending of anything, no problems with memory channels

swift gyro
#

Nice

#

You didn’t watch the video

long before you even posted it

Then you’d understand what I mean by rotations

#

my waterblock is what pushes down my CPU.
so pressure is optimal and even

#

why would I spent money on a piece of metal (bracket/frame) if there is no need

jade cobalt
#

watercooling 🤮 only water cooling I need is on my cnc machine

frigid pilot
#

If you have an airconditioned room with stable temp., it is no problem to stay on air cooling, regular overclocking is no problem too

swift gyro
#

It depends

#

Air cooler will heat soak much faster, about 90 seconds when appropriately sized.

#

Meanwhile a 240mm AIO can take 200 seconds to heat soak

#

420 AIO might take 370 seconds

#

And of course custom water cooling will have longer time (versus AIO) to heat soak for a variety of reasons, such as copper rad, thicker rad, pure water instead of ethylene mixture, better tubing and pump for higher flow, better cold block for better transfer.

frigid pilot
#

Lets rent a gaming room inside one of those former nuclear power plants and just activate their cooling system again lol

#

The cooling towers are epic

With a veritable spate of published patent applications over the past week, AMD has potentially revealed a lot of new insights into upcoming technologies in GPUs and CPUs. On June 30 alone, 54 patent applications were published. It remains to be seen which patents will ultimately be approved and which will actually be found in products. Regardless of this, the applications provide interesting insights into the technological approaches pursued by AMD.

#

of particular interest for the article, is the patent regarding better shader utilization for MCM

frigid pilot
#

And Intel is being pushed down the patent ranking each year lol

The guy is absolutely underrated IMO

#

He has had in depth leaks that turned out correct so many times by now, no idea why his videos dont get more views

frigid pilot
#

Because the entire market is based on what you wanna believe. The others either don‘t care about leaks or busy with their own opinions 😜

swift gyro
#

he’s regularly made fun of by people with actually good info

frigid pilot
#

No idea why they are desperately focused on leaks, they should make good news in general first

AMD fixing their software, shocking

This is an old fix but only recently tested

1080 ti light is flashing orange slowly, I don't know what I did to make that happen.

swift gyro

It might mean you turned on the second vbios

#

Im not sure tho

why dont you ask on tomhardshardware, linus, your manufacture forum...

maybe even read the manual

What is the best headset for playing arma?????

jade cobalt
#

the most comfortable one, without usb and open back design

dapper oyster
#

Like astros?????

jade cobalt
#

lol no

#

AKG, Audio Technica, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, comparable companies like them, Hyper x is the best low priced option

#

avoid the RazorLogischit what have you

samething as razorlogicshit

It’s funny how much effort intel will go through to advertise e cores while enthusiasts do not care about e cores, if anything they are more e-waste for enthusiasts.

swift gyro
#

Userbench is heavily biased

#

To the point they’re frequently banned from being posted on tech forums

#

Also

#

The 12600k will be better for games

#

But it doesn’t make much sense over a 12400

#

12400 is substantially more cost effective if what you care about is in game performance per dollar

jade cobalt
#

well I keep my computers for a long time so a 10 core cpu seems pretty future proof, and would help me with multitasking

#

what is better benchmark site

swift gyro
#

Depends on the workload

frigid pilot
frigid pilot

And depending on what we understand of „enthusiasts“ I see them as much as overclockers, most of them are everything but sane. The whole mobile business works on e-cores already and some of them even have 3 different cores. So yes, there are proof of concept starting with Apple Bionic, Qualcomm Snapdragon or ARM and in terms of efficiency neither Intel nor AMD would stand a single chance. That is why they are heavily investing in mobile gear to not lose more grounds.

Unless of course the additional cache is useless, then it’s not fake 🙂

# swift gyro Unless of course the additional cache is useless, then it’s not fake 🙂

or you're simply not smart enough to understand that it was running on Z690 with no official support and not Z790 with full support and that it's not final, thus performance is not as it should be
and saying that additional cache is useless is also stupid, because it can simply be that a specific program doesn't take into account the added performance coming from more cache, like Cinebench doesn't care at all whether you have DDR4 2133 or DDR4 4700 MHz - results in exactly same number of points
