Is that a real Western Electric Bell Touchtone Phone in your background? 2:14 right behind your elbow.

No way, it can't possibly be 9950 times better. It is only about 2-3 times better.

I'd rather buy Zen 5 than Zen 4 purely because they consume less power. That's nice. Less heat always means better longevity and I tend to use computers for a long time. I prefer 9700X. performance/power usage/price ratio is excellent.

Can you do a video on determining if your CPU needs RMA'd. It's often difficult to figure out if just bad code, or if CPU now in this case. I host a few dedicated servers on Debian w/ Docker. I do see crashes from time to time but that seems normal. But now , with a 14700, I will question every crash :| Only recently have the new microcode been available.

how about the latency and anti cheat support for multiplayer games? wonder if you guys would ever deep dive into system latency for competitive games. thanks!

Definitely, go team! 👏🏼

0:26 I've known this. as your windows system ages, the performance gaps between linux and windows will be more apparent.

I haven't finished the video yet, but as a Rust 🦀 developer I'd love to see some Rust compilation benchmarks. I'm currently running a 3950X, on socket AM4 and 64GB DDR4, and really like it.

Please update us soon on this. I'd love to see gaming benchmarks where Linux is beating Windows that aren't Valve games, or down to the graphics driver not supporting features that are available on Windows.

Think maybe Intel should be thinking about hiring you to help figure it out cuz they seem pretty clueless

Proton is using Windows libraries via Wine.. (I'm sure everyone knows that). It is likely that older versions of Windows that utilize those same libraries would perform just as well or better. Wine isn't utilizing the latest Windows libraries yet, at least btly default anyway.

My 7950x3D is so much faster in Arch with KDE even running it from an external 20GBPs USB Type-C enclosure from Delock (42000 product id, chip ASM236X) which is installed on a slower NVME drive to begin with (Adata XPG GamingX s11 Pro 512GB vs the WD SN850X 4TB which is directly connected on the CPU and is the System drive and the Gaming drive), and that's with Windows 11 debloated af and running significantly faster than it did before that (especially regarding responsiveness) yet, i can even tell from the movement of the Orochi V2's mouse that the accuracy level is on a different level in Arch, it feels way more responsive, and wwwaaay more accurate, settings, programs start faster. Games like WoW in Raids keep 80+ FPS and way more consistently (same exact graphics settings) in 25 man raids and i am like...Windows...i have even tried to disable every hidden and possible power feature (including core parking) to see what might be making such a quantifiable difference, and i can't find what's causing this. I can't explain how Windows is so bad at ...being an OS, things just feel, buffered.

i was waiting for 9000 series i wanna buy a new pc , so i shouldn't get a 9000 series ? i picked i7 14700k then that news came they are instability issues etc so was was waiting for 9000 series

Chip built with servers in mind

"In the past 5 years" What my head says "Yeah, AMD's really grown from Zen 1 and Zen+!" What reality says: Zen 2 to Zen 3

Is that an old Logitech MX Revolution?

I’ve been running my 7950x machine with 96gb just like you recommended back when I got it, and it’s never given me one bit of trouble. It lets me play metro exodus with physx on my 3080, while I’m running docker AND serving data to another machine at 400 mbps over WiFi. Like holy crap

At 8:10 there is one hell of screen tearing...

AMD accidentally promoting Linux.

Too bad every other gaming "journalist" tech outlet has already labeled Zen 5 as not worth it since they were stuck on Windows. Imaging not telling your gamer audience about a 5-10% performance uplift. The worst apart of it all is these gamers would happily push us back to Pentium 4 or AMD FX era if it meant getting 3 more FPS because gaming matters more than actual uarch efficiency improvements.

You need to test windows on the hidden administrator account, it currently boosts performance a lot

Windows is hot garbage

Sounds like Zen 5 is the final "excuse" I've been waiting for to switch to Linux

20% uplift in DevOps workloads? I guess I just found my next upgrade path at work. <3

Can you tell your speculations what AMD is "paving what incredible things for Zen 6"? Do you know more, or did you see a pattern? It would be an interesting video to watch.

Got to admit I wasn't expecting the Hitchhiker's reference 😅

What rackmount case is he using here??

I don't really get how now would be the great time to move from AM4 considering the fact that there's barely any real uplift from Zen4 and memory stability still isn't that great. I'm still gonna hold out till Zen 6. Maybe if the new chipset handles memory better than what we have now.

YES, this is the PC Build I want. Workstation(Productivity) At first I wanted the AMD AM5 Ryzen 7950X. Server Based/ and DAW User… But I still wanted to do Video Editing up to 1440p… And maybe a decent GPU(maybe?)

The difference in performance (where Linux is beating Windows in gaming by a few percent) seems to line up with a Windows bug that Steve from Hardware Unboxed mentioned in his video following his latest Ryzen review.

Holy hell when i'm ready to upgrade in like ~5 more years tech is gonna be NUTS. I'm on a 3600cpu/7600gpu rig rn and besides some blender issues I'm pretty well taken care of. I kinda can't wait till i have to upgrade(but i will).

I just discovered you have a Linux channel, Wendell... Liked & subscribed, look forward to more content on the 9000 series later.

Wendal the only man happy about the 9000!😂😂😂

So it turns out that there is a Windows 11 bug effecting the entire Zen 5 line up. Can anyone answer the question , are these cpu's effected by the same type of bug within a linux O/S?

It's fine.

Great video

Hardware Unboxed reported today that there is a glitch in Windows that impacts Zen 4 and Zen 5 (possibly all Zen but they only tested 4 and 5). If you are logged in under the Administrator Account you get a boost in performance over logging in under user or the user with Admin privileges account. I wonder if this is part of the difference you are seeing here.

You are gay king just like Zen.

Hoping for the release of the 9000X3D processors and RDA4 GPUs to finally upgrade my aging Ryzen 5 2600X and RTX 2060 6GB combo!

THOUGHT AMD has made it clear that 3d chips are made for gaming? Plus I will not be watching videos that use dumb setup to test gaming performance. AS these reviewer use non real world test bench and setting which gives no one any real information. Why show me data charts 9700x with a rtx 4090 @ 1080p? Now these higher end chips 9950 yes use the 4090 but doing bench test @ 1080p tells me nothing of the true performance. I really don't care why they claim the reason why they do this it's pointless! Just like they would tell ya your dumb if you did their test setting as a daily driver! I would like a YT person do real world test ... I think this channel is above the others because they talk about real case usage a lot more.

Linux is life. Windows is death.

Now we are just missing a workstation chipset and more PCIe lanes on these cpus and they would be ideal for productivity and homelabers

Would be nice to see benchmarks with software actually compiled with modern features. Most games are probably compiled so they work on old Core2 Duo systems and are missing modern ISA features.

Personally I don't think you're meant to remove PBO limits completely, what you're meant to do is find the limit by removing it, and then put in a PPT like 10w lower, this way the system knows the cooler budget before it hits it, the amp limits seem useless, you can probably set TDC to max with zero effect (this feels like pure mother board design constraint) and try limit EDC as much as possible before it hurts performance, you can see turning on PBO actually hurts 1% lows, meaning it's probably throttling harder to prevent overheating creating a net negative effect, and it's going to be more problematic in games or other "spikey" media, code compiling or video encoding it isn't going to matter since clocks and heat will be pretty consistent.

You should have a talk with the guys from @HardwareUnboxed ! They seem to have found a bug on Windows that decreased (at least) Zen 5 & 4 performance

8:27 awesome, not ready to talk about what the video says it's about

Better performance (2% up to 5%) on Linux compared to Windows 10/11 goes for years now. No new news for me at least. Some distributions does it better than others. And consistent tests with different Geekbench versions on different Windows and Linux machines confirms that for me. So nothing new even with new CPU's - i am not really surprised to see this coming. This year i have decided to go for Qualcomm laptop. As i won't have time to play many games but still need Windows at work environment, and a full day on battery time is a huge profit now.

the year of the linux desktop is upon us!

Could you say that Zen5 is pretty much experimental? It looks promising, but not a massive generational uplift compared to Zen4 as opposed to previous Zen gens. Could it also be that AMD rushed the release too much and that microcode and/or Windows drivers aren't finished yet?
