The 4 GB physical ram limit didn't last twenty years on the x86, it was lifted with the Pentium Pro nine years later, which had a 36-bit physical address space due to Physical Address Extension.

True, but it was still only 4 GB linear addressing. Just as the 8086/286 only had 64KB linear addressing, despite their 20/24 address lines (via special segment registers).

[@Magnus_Loov]

And no consumer operating system could adress that either. Windows 98, for example, only allowed 512 megabytes maximum. It wasn't until the 64-bit operating systems that we could go beyond 4 gigs (or even 3 gigs since there was a Windows limit for that too). And that was in the mid 2000:s..

Again, thanks for making me feel old (j/k) My first x86 PC was a Tandy 1000 with and 8088. It was a hand me down from my dad after he got a Commodore 64. Technically, my first PC was a Ti99/4a. After the 8088, I got a 286. Then I skipped the 386 and 486 and got a Pentium 75MHz. Upgraded that to a 100MHz. It was then when I performed my first overclock. I ran the 100MHz at 133MHz and never had an issue. Back then, CPU speed was determined by the pattern you set a block of jumpers, usually a few rows of three pins. the jumpers either connected pins 1-2 or 2-3 and the combo of connected pins across the rows set your clock speed. For the most part, you could never set the jumpers for any speed other than the CPU was marked as. I actually set the pins to a pattern not shown in the manual. At the time, I never knew I was actually overclocking. I wouldn't truly overclock again until I got my Athlon 800MHz when I used a pencil (YES A PENCIL) to connect points on the top of the CPUs PCB. I got it to a stable 900MHz.The points were actually the socket pins that went all the way through. Very similar to the Pentium overclocking, the Athlons had a set of 4 pairs of tiny points on the top of the PCB. The speed was determined on how these were connected via small connections. You could use a pencil to connect, unconnected points to change the clock speed, but using a rear window defroster repair kit was the best (basically metal paint)

[@hababacon]

I switched from AMD to Intel in 2006 with the Intel's dual core processors, and not looked back since sadly. What killed, or is killing AMD was the push for GHZ, and more cores without significantly improving IPCs, L1-3 cache, and memory performance. AMD's shared resources, now slow DDR 3 standard RAM, slow APU CPU performance, and lack of innovation regarding new instruction sets has four of their top CPUs being beaten by Intel's Dual Core solutions in gaming. Application performance is still ok, and I still use AMD 8320-50s for PC builds when not building for gamers. Going forward after this year I will make the switch to Intel's 6600K CPUs to get some of my clients on the new DDR 4 standard for future proofing.

[@minecraft1232311]

+hababacon Exactly like that but still, imo their fx 6300 and lower CPUs aren't *that* bad

[@hababacon]

***** Not bad for typical productivity use, but bottlenecks professional power users, and gamers. I've used AMD'S 6300 before, but since late 2013, I just go with either the 8320, or 50 for typical PC build request with DDR 1866. For gaming builds, I'm using either the I5 4590 S-T for my low end to midrange (4690K) builds. High end gamer builds 5820 or 5930K are my typical builds. I usually talk people down from buying the 5960, and invest in higher end video cards (980 - 980TI) instead of AMD 290 - Nvidia 970 for $15-1700 builds.

Hard to believe they left out the 486DX2-66 and 486DX4-100 and 133, where they first introduced the separation of the front-side bus speed from the core CPU clock speed, which was also the first real consumer overclocking opportunity as you could change the FSB multiplier to run your CPU faster!

He almost skipped the 386 as well. This was the processor that intel thought was so good that they had a break with AMD as ”second source” for IBM and AMD had to go it alone. This is the CPU that introduced virtual memory and paging that is used by every modern OS. The key invention of the 486 I would say was the clock multiplier.

Intel is absolute proof that when you have no competitors, you have no reason to have major upgrades.

[@soylentgreenb]

That’s absolute BS. Dennard scaling ended in the early 00’s. That’s why performance growth ground to a halt and that’s why the pentium 4 was a bad design in hindsight. Intel made a huge bet on itanium; that was going to be the desktop 64-bit architecture; they were sure of it for years and years. Pentium 4 was baked in the cake, they couldn’t change it. So during the time AMD was at its most competitive intel fucked up on all fronts and it took half a decade to fix, and the fix was to regress to the P6 architecture which had hibernated in low power laptop applications and tweak that a bit with multicore.

[@rainbowisticfarts]

So is AMD, after winning the war on the Anthlon 64 War, they made shit CPUs which overheated, they had to drop the price crazily just to stay conpetitive, a dual core Intel would beat their highest end 8 core one even in MULTICORE, these wars keep on happening, the Zen2 is just another one

What's with the 'Philippines' label on the first picture of a Pentium at 1:53?

[@TacComControl]

Intel stopped worrying half as much about performance because they started focusing more on power usage. Their central focus these days is making the highest efficiency in terms of power consumption that they can, while still delivering the same process power from before, at least, which, in combination, causes the processor to perform better overall. Additionally, it comes down to not just process cycles, but also what Else it can do. Right now, for instance, Intel is focusing on adding in high power video processing to consumer grade units, with the intent of making budget-model video cards no longer effectively necessary.

Not much was happening in the mid twenty-teens... and then Ryzen arrived!

I wish the average Joe didn't exists we would have better computers these days if wasn't for it

[@rameynoodles152]

??? No, because the average joe is just a term for whatever is average. If there are a bunch of rich fucks, then they are the average joe. We would have better computers if there was more competition from AMD. Hell, we'd have WAY better computers if there was an entirely new company that started making a new type of CPU to compete with both Intel and AMD.

[@luisperez3968]

Dude you nailed it!

[@buttersquids]

Sean Ramey True, I really kind of want a company to rival both of them

[@solarstrike33]

Cyrix did this in the mid-90s.

[@KhanPiesseONE]

You wish poor people didn't exist?

[@Dje4321]

3:22 Amd GPU with sli bridge. nice job linus.

[@JJop123]

I really wish they'd start recording in 60fps.....like some of the other tech channels I'm subbed to...looks like crap at 30 :/

[@jessereed82]

It's more cinematic

[@JarrydHall]

+JJop123 60fps is a huge increase in processing on both the camera, in post and uploading. I'd prefer more frequent techquickies over 60fps. Plus, 29.98fps looks nicer and streams much better for content like this. :)

[@JJop123]

Jarryd Hall hmmmmm, I don't know about that, like I said, other tech channels I'm subbed to started going 60fps for similar styles of content and it makes a world of difference, plus, LMG always show off all their "high end" stuff, if other tech channels with less can do it, I think they are more than capable of doing it.

[@roteroktober360]

+jesse reed now u sound like ubisoft

[@handymanshandle]

I believe they did test it out, but I forgot the videos :/

[@davidabra8431]

what happened at 5:47.18 (aprox) is this us seeing into the matrix that is linus tech tips?! or a minor edit glitch? '-) xXx nice to know I'm not the only one who publishes with (ehrm) deliberate mistakes to make sure the end user is watching keep up the excellent and very informative videos and apologies for being that guY that noticed

[@James-dn5gn]

Finally someone has mentioned that CPUs have stopped improving ! A CPU today tin 2016 is about 3 times faster than a CPU in 2002 for single thread usage, 15 years ago ! And many programs are not designed for multi thread, or multi core since it takes more work. And in 2002 CPU speed was at 3GHz and 15 years later in 2016 is STILL at 3GHz !!! WTF ??? Yes, there is more than just clock speed but it shows how things have stopped improving. In 2002 the NSA mentioned that consumers have TOO MUCH COMPUTING POWER and that is about when CPUs stopped doubling in speed / power , and barely improved at all ! Now 6 - 9 % per year at most, that is TERRIBLE !!!!!! And benchmarks always show multi core, not single threat, which is the better comparison since you don't have several areas of RAM to go with each core so a 4 core isn't 4 times as fast. It may be much faster at times and no faster at other times if it needs to use the RAM frequently. At least he mentioned it at 6:00, but should have went in more detail. We should have CPUs that run at 384GHz by now, with about 256GB of RAM and a 16 - 32TB hard drive. But RAM and hard drives have also almost stopped improving ! In 2007 we had 4 - 8GB of RAM and most computers now have 8 - 16GB of RAM, 8 years later ! It should be about 256GB of RAM ! Linus, go into detail about this ! And how Intel and other companies have transistors that run at 1000GHz, a TERAHERTS , but CPUs can't even run 1% of that ? 1% would be 10GHz, 10% would be 100GHz, we should be able to have that easily ! And with carbon nano tube strip or copper strips and spacing the chips and integrating heat pipes, the heat wouldn't be a problem either. It would just slow down if needed just like now. And 2TB hard drives have been around since 2009 and STILL BEING SOLD for most computers !!!!! They should be 2009, 2TB , 2011 4TB, 2013, 8TB, 2015 16TB, 2017 32TB. So at least 16TB hard drives !!!! And they still sell 1TB hard drives in many computers too ! Today, Aug 2016, Staples sells 2 computers for $499 and 699 with a 1TB hard drive and 8GB of RAM ! The same as 8 years ago in 2007 !!! This is progress ? And it is their fastest computers, not the cheapest slow ones either ! And even the one for $800 with a i7-6700 has 8GB of RAM and a TB hard drive ! The same RAM and hard drive size as in 2007 !!!!!

[@elmanu2918]

James you are aware that hard drives have simply reached their physical limits Do you? Linus even has an episode on it

[@yellowknifeproductionsinc3733]

The main thing is also because there is currently no need for 256 gb ram or 32tb hard drives you dumbass

[@ZipplyZane]

What I know for sure is that I went shopping for a computer around the time when the 1Ghz barrier was broken, and those on offer were all AMD. And I foolishly let the salesman talk me into getting a 733 Mhz Pentium instead. But, hey, I was in the eighth grade, and it was my first computer since my 486.

[@higheststrpk]

whats the difference between the old i7 (2andsomenumbershere) that some people are still using(that i7 that still runs modern games well) and newer i5/ i7 cpus

[@Steamrick]

+bastard Mostly? Some changes in IPC (Instructions Per Cycle - how much it can do per MHz), some additions in instruction set (it can do certain tasks much more efficiently), a noteable improvement in energy efficiency and graphics performance of the integrated GPU. But comparatively, the difference between the i7-2600K and the i7-6700K is much smaller than the difference between the i7-2600K and the C2Q Q6600, despite the same span of time (~4 years) between their release. It's kind of as if Intel had looked at the Sandy Bridge generation (core 2XXX CPUs) and thought 'yep, those are fast enough for anything a consumer could want. Let's concentrate on other things now.'

[@higheststrpk]

+Steamrick has the same happend with i5 processors? im thinking of buying i5 4690k but i thought it would be outdated already and it wouldnt be able to run games propely after few years

[@streetguru9350]

+bastard It has a lower IPC and uses more power, but that's pretty much most every older CPU

[@mandaloin]

+bastard As a 4690k user myself, I can say for certain it's still the bleeding edge. I just watched a gaming benchmark comparison (can't remember by who) and it showed the 4xxx CPUs keeping up with and sometimes outperforming the 6xxx CPUs.

[@higheststrpk]

mandaloin have you overclocked? im getting some good mobo so i can get good oc going on, and aftermarket air cpu cooler. how much ghz u did get on ur oc?

[@ct1660]

The Mendocino Celeron and Dixon Pentium II were actually the first Intel processors to have on-die L2 cache. The Katmai Pentium III had half-speed external L2, but the later Coppermine and newer Pentium III’s had on-die L2

[@MallternativeAngst]

i thought it was the ppro that first had on-die l2

[@stainp]

WAY WAY BACK IN THE 1980S

[@MotorHeadTech]

@techquickie there needs to be a video on the best portable solar panel chargers out there!!

[@MrGencyExit64]

Ah yes, the 1970s... back when Intel manufactured microprocessors. Today they are in the space heater industry.

[@mwbgaming28]

especially since they mostly market for overclocking

[@ff11dream]

Insane I woke up and dreamed about the intro music lol

[@mxthunder2]

AMD was first to 1GHz. Boo intel

[@BertGrink]

Moore's Law actually states that CPU performance doubles roughly every TWO years, not EACH year en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%27s_law

[@herrbonk3635]

No, it was originally a statement about the number of transistors you could fit on an integrated circuit, or how fast that number grows. It has nothing to do with processors or performance per se. That's just the usual narrow minded recentism.

[@temptemp1192]

Man this is outdated the whole part about AMD being uncompetitive

[@mauricewalker2254]

Even me who was born too soon understood the information. He put into clear layman's terms, thank you.

[@bootyholeman5659]

Actually, the Pentium architecture did not initially introduce MMX instructions. There were several iterations, and several years later after the Pentium was introduced before MMX was introduced. What the Pentium was most famous for was the introduction of superscalar architecture to x86. The ability to execute multiple instructions per clock tick. This was massive, it allowed the Pentium to be nearly 2x as fast per clock tick compared to it's predecessor the 486. It was way ahead of it's time, and took the competitors AMD, Cyrix, and others quite awhile to catch up. Also to add to things you missed, or got wrong. The Pentium Pro, this CPU had out of order execution which further enhanced the superscaler ability, and moved the L2 cache normally installed on the motherboard to the CPU itself (albeit on a separate die) which now ran at the same frequency as the CPU, i.e 200mhz vs. 33mhz on the shared buss.

[@herrbonk3635]

0:24 The 4004 would not be "uselessly slow"... It could actually still be used for a household appliance, for a scientific calculator, or even a simple industrial robot. _It was _*_never_*_ intended for computers._

[@RichardsWorld]

I'm glad someone finally said Moore's Law isn't really a law.

[@giobikefans]

Even in 2021 my i960 from 10 years ago can still play a lot of modern games. It’s not my main system anymore as it bottlenecked my GPU but it’s still setup in the house when kids want to play online stuff. I can’t say that I was rocking our early 90s 386 in the year 2000.

[@dmitriyvassilyev5849]

Correction to 2:25 : Celeron 300A was the first retail CPU with integrated on-die L2 cache (clocked at full speed), not Pentium 3. That's why it was on par with way more expensive Pentium II (its 512KB cache was clocked at half speed).

[@OZTutoh]

**goes to turn off 2x speed playback** **it isn't on**

[@Sciron]

As fast as possible intel processors change over time and get better

[@BioHunter1990]

I still have a Dell Inspiron E1405...one of the few Core Duo chips. Sucker still runs like a boss.

[@mwbgaming28]

put that up against my 5.2Ghz delidded core i5 4690k (2 cores disabled to reach that speed)

[@RicardoPCGamer]

I have an E1505 and it will never run anything run like a boss. It can barely play 720p videos, and those laptops run so hot. The core2 duo T7200 in the E1505 laptop could play a 720p 30fps video at 90-100% CPU usage. My core i5 will eat it alive, it is like 10x more powerful. My Core i5, can play videos at 8k 60fps, at 30% CPU usage, and the CPU still has room for more.

[@travis1240]

No mention of the 286 or the 486? The Pentium Pro? Or the inclusion of the FPU on the die? Hm...

[@ZZZachFL]

I was surprised to see you left out how the Pentium changed the computing world in 1993. It was the first superscalar CPU, where more than one instruction could be decoded and executed at once. Conroe gave x86 the third pipeline, which is partly why it SMOKED everything else out there in 2006.

[@TrollingAround]

Cyrix had x86 compatible CPUs with onboard graphics years ago, the MediaGX.

[@WolvenSpectre]

@TechQuickie Moors Law stated that the number of Transistors doubled every 2 years, not 1 like you said in the video, or 18 months which is actually something Alan Turring said as a theory.

[@johnb.285]

Again Thanks' for the info about the Intel Processors...
