So I assume at this point, intel 14th gen and 15th gen are a waist of money and that I should just get the 9950X?

15th gen doesnt exist its core ultra 200 series. i would definitely recommend an am5 based system. though watch some reviews of aforementioned core ultra 200 series before writing it off completely. make sure you look at your specific workload.

arrow lake is the 15th generation of core (2/i/ultra) cpus.
copper otter
15th gen core does not exist
what i said was that arrow lake is the 15th generation to be named under the core (2/i/ultra) branding. meaning, it's the 15th gen of core cpus
it may go under core ultra 2xx
kind surge
but the core branding is over. therefore it is not 15th gen core, it is core ultra 200
kind surge
arrow lake is the 15th generation of core (2/i/ultra) cpus.
and this makes it sound like there have been 15th generations of core ultra
copper otter
core ultra
copper otter
it's still a part of the core family, just like how the core 2 and the core i are part of the core family
kind surge
either way, core ultra 200 is not 15th gen anything
its core ultra 200
and nothing else
copper otter
its core ultra 200
15th gen to literally everyone else but you.
kind surge
no?
copper otter
havent seen another mf say "core ultra 200"
kind surge
then you havent seen many other people talk about it
copper otter
pretty much every other post i've seen abt it has called it "15th gen"
kind surge
they are incorrect
copper otter
if they didn't want people to call them 15th gen they should have scrapped the core from the name
simple as
kind surge
you think a company like intel would do something that sensible after releasing 14th gen?
copper otter
i mean they should have
imagine if amd, instead of calling ryzens ryzens, called them "fx ultras"? they'd get shit on for years
kind surge
yes, they should have, but of course they didnt. ultra sounds cooler so it had to be done
at least its marginally better than "ryzen ai"
copper otter
that's being upfront with what it is though
kind surge
imagine if amd, instead of calling ryzens ryzens, called them "fx ultras"? they'...
ryzen was a radically different product though
copper otter
case in point
exactly why "core ultra 2xx" is considered a part of the core family
it isn't a radically different product
and thus is the 15th generation of core-family cpus.
kind surge
following your logic, it would have to be more generations though, becuase core2 was before core i, which started the 1st gen, 2nd gen, etc
copper otter
fair point
kind surge
all the branding is actually terrible right now
copper otter
real
kind surge
first we get usb 3.1 gen 1/2, then we get 3.2 gen 2x2, then we get hdmi 2.1 (2.0) thats actually just hdmi 2.0, then we get core ultra, then we get ryzen ai
copper otter
well tbf usb3.1g1/g2 and 3.2-2x2 and hdmi2.1 are standards
not that it makes it less stupid
just different
copper otter
standards turn into branding, kinda like how wifi 6e/7 have turned into branding
kind surge
yeah thats fair
copper otter
but yeah
