In summary: AMD is doing well and Intel is kicking their own ass.

[@Haskellerz]

didn't ASUS and Gigabyte motherboards also fry AMD CPUs ?

[@knm080xg12r6j991jhgt]

10 years ago, AMD was gasping for air. How times have changed. But, since I'm always rooting for the underdog, maybe my next system should be Intel.

[@DerpingtonMcDerp]

Yes i love competition its good for us but GPU wise i hope they improve and get more support from gamers, we don't need a monopoly from Nvidia

[@chefffs]

@@DerpingtonMcDerpI love my 7900xtx after switching from nvidia idk why more people aren’t buying it, 2k beast.

[@Wolvey10]

I feel like instead of dancing in circles, Intel should just tell the consumers the way it is. Then redeem themselves by releasing something that’s competitive. I think people don’t want to fall for big marketing selling products/information incorrectly.

[@gradystephenson3346]

[@Belaziraf]

They have an engineer as CEO, so even if I don't like Intel that much, I don't have bias when it comes to CPUs. Well not brand wise. What matters (to me) is performance per watt and related PSUs need and cooling systems. People only talk about the necessity to change MB and CPU but there's much more than than depending on peak TDP. Look at Apple. Jobs was an engineer (hacker in the truest sense) and devices were innovative, expensive but innovative. Tim now cook consumers with cheap dough recycling same old recipes, giving less for higher prices. That's what marketing is about : making you purchase trash while thinking you acquiring a luxury good. That's what Apple is number one in the world for. Intel is indecisive. Geislinger clearly isn't a directive leader. He might have been a team leader. But not a good manager. A team leader and a manager have more or less the same role in EU. Except a team leader is underpaid for more expertise. In US, a manager is a good slave owner and dictator. How to make people work more for less than free when team leaders shoulder the responsibilities of making the team endure. Pat just haven't found his path. And maybe he never will. If he could let his engineer side take over first then thinking about profitability, Intel may get back on trails.

[@Honigball]

@@sivaxi5114 These nm sizes arent much more as a marketing act. The sizes of the transistors are about the same since they hit about 35nm. They just pretend like that isnt the case. Its more like „ it is like it would be if it was this size“, which is just marketing. Whats really changing is the design of the transistors but thats way harder to use for marketing. Its ok inside of a manufacturers line up but you cant compare it to another manufacturer

[@paulanderson2963]

Don't worry as someone who is familiar with "Intel speak" I can translate what Intel is saying perfectly and convey it in very simple terms. What intel is trying to say is "We are royally screwed"

[@ranjitmandal1612]

[@spoots1234]

​@@Alp577TBF motherboard manufacturers are getting too wild. Remember they were also cooking 7800x3ds. They also hide everything behind stupid names. It took me hours to control the core voltages on mine and maybe Intel will eventually just come out and say auto overclocking was pushing too hard on voltages or something and eventually recommend manual overclocking over baseline

[@noel-thatguykf5slk166]

Intel is trying to create a situation that would allow them to deny warranty claims due to misuse. Think of this way: mobo manufacturers are the car dealership, Intel is the car manufacturer, and we as consumers are responsible for anything we do with that vehicle once it leaves the lot. My 1976 Buick Regal would go 115 mph at factory settings, but I don't recommend.

[@spoots1234]

I think Intel is trying to partially cover for the mobo manufacturers, who probably were too aggressive with auto overclocks. They'll probably have a firmware update and everybody will forget about it. Remember how the burning x3d chips blew over due to mobo vendors overvolting CPUs to get that extra 2% in benchmark reviews?

[@ArnezBonsol]

[@OtherTheDave]

[@steamstories1279]

Microsoft should also change MB to MiB and GB to GiB because MB and GB are wrong. Mebibyte and gibibyte are actually what you see in Windows file explorer. When you see a file having 3 GB it's actually has 3 GiB and that is also 3.22 GB.

[@fateunleashed9680]

Thank you we need more transparency of what is going on instead of needing youtube videos explaining the mess that doesn't need to exist. RAM can't have hertz, so get rid of the term. Same with windows space need to show what you see, which is based off of binary values.

[@WarkWarbly]

[@titan557]

Will there be another Cannon Ball Run? Since ARM and X86 is nearing their limits. What's next? Are we going to see other changes? We went from 8-bit to 16-bit to 32-bit and now 64-bit operating systems. Is 128-bit or 256-bit operating systems coming next?

[@Peter-gb4ey]

Apple's M4 in the iPad is probably limited to X wattage, while the MacBook/Mac gets the full wattage. Like how NIVIDIA's mobile GPUs are not the same from one 4070 to the next 4070 laptop models, as it depends on what the laptop manufacturer choose for wattage and clock speed.

[@TheIndulgers]

I don’t understand Intel. They are being two faced about this. They like to try an deny warranty claims and dodge responsibility when it comes to instability and state things like xmp is overclocking. Then they recommend users and mb manufacturers to overclock? Which one is it? You can’t give people a straight answer because you want the OC benchmarks, but don’t want the OC stability and warranty responsibilities. It’s insulting to the consumer and your partners.

[@AndresCastilloAJO]

I would turn the sign to see how it looks. Would stop being a left/right color order. And more of a side/center thing. Having blue at both letters at the center of the screen and pink to the sides of the screen. Like a mirror of color but it can be read correctly.

[@dontreadtoofarintoit1868]

21:39 this is so well spoken, Thanks Brent.

[@JayDDubbleyuh]

Its called playing both sides. They want the performant advantage benchmarks from the "overbuilt" boards "no one" buys, but they want to save face from their chips cooking when someone actually shoots for those performance targets. (This is Intel's version of AMD's Zen1/2 coming in a few hundred mhz shy on some cores and them adjusting code.)

[@ktvx.94]

Intel right now is in a catch 22 situation: if they don't reduce power their CPUs die, but if they do they underperform. Intel is trying to communicate something that will get them out of it, but it's not possible and they're making it worse.

[@omegamit6zeichen]

Regarding the Powerlimit: I thought what intel tried to say was: Motherboard vendors should implement what the motherboard is capable of, but if you go into the bios of this board and select the "" - it should be the 180 one, and not anything else.

[@arlo.infinity]

My take on the "Intel Default Settings" is that the key word in their description is "thermal", and that the motherboard manufactuers should implement new Intel recommended power delivery profiles that still technically allow the power to go high for short bursts (between 253W and 550W depending on your motherboard/setting), but are still severely hamstrung by having aggressive thermal (and maybe current) limits to stop the thermal wear that is destroying the CPUs. This lets them still claim to the end users that don't look at the details that they didn't waste $$$ on expensive overclocking motherboards --- while still solving the issue and claiming that the motherboard manfactuers are to blame.

[@kuekejuu5057]

i just hope they're fixing their file size unit and start using the correct one. fyi windows is using binary unit (MiB, GiB, TiB) but showing it in decimal unit (MB, GB, TB) and it's causing a lot of confussion.

So AMD changed the R9 / R7 / R5 part to AI9 / AI7 / AI5 or am I missing something? What's the issue about this change? The naming for laptop chips was always confusing, this won't make any difference IMHO.

[@SplitScreamOFFICIAL]

8:30 Intel should just say, "Hey, from this point onward, everything that says over 200 watts will be classified as Overclocked for these CPUs. We allow the user to choose between our base recommendation and the Motherboard vendors 'preferred power settings" Doing this you still get to choose the OC version and the baseline version while washing their hands of it

[@patriciamassie8505]

I think Intel is saying that there are motherboards which have power settings that the motherboard can't deliver. When trying to deliver the power requested some motherboards might be having voltage or current sag which causes some instability in the CPU.

[@volodumurkalunyak4651]

No. There arent voltage sags or current sags there. CPU asks moutherboard for voltage a bit too low. Moutherboard manufacturers set their AC_LL and DC_LL values wrong and CPU request voltage dont get high enought according to those. Ideally those values should match VRM loadline, but manufacturers intentionally set those too low to undervolt the CPU.

[@vectorexpanse]

From a business perspective legal wise you NEVER admit fault as lawyers will tell you. So this is the reason why companies never apologize, because if they do so, it puts them into more harms way in the legal sense. This makes it incredibly hard for companies to do the "right" thing morally as the legal side of things largely prevents them from doing so. So I don't expect to see an "oops we're sorry" in the slightest here because companies are not willing to risk opening themselves up to law suits because it becomes easier to sue them if they have admitted to wrong doing since you no longer have to prove it as you can simply use their words. Welcome to the world of business where things are cut throat and rarely easy to decipher.

[@cracklingice]

I'm fairly certain that it was not the 253W profile that was causing the instability but mobo manufacturers that ignored it and run the CPUs beyond the intended 253W max TDP. I call that overclocking given todays current climate of CPUs not really having any headroom anymore. It's the same thing as PBO on the AMD side. If a CPU is not stable with intel extreme profile then it is defective and needs to be replaced under warranty since some person at intel said that unlimited power was 'in spec' even though it clearly exceeds the intended spec of the CPU and should be considered as overclocking.

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

Interesting choice at the start of the video that many probably didn't spot. Intel i960 was intels second attempt to replace x86 with something they had full control over (tbm insisted that Intel had a second supplier for the original ibm pc, which was amd, Intel tried to later freeze amd out by not sharing the 386 design onwards, but amd made their own. Later this was resolved when Intel had another failure and needed 64bit on x86, which amd had developed). Intel i432 and iA64 were the others. I432 ended up like i960 in printers and other devices, iA64? That was itanium and it is typically known as itannic by many..

It's pretty clear what they are saying.... "It's the MBs fault, the MB MFR should test their power profiles and tell you what to use with each chip on their board". I'm not excusing Intel, but honestly this is what should be happening anyway. How can intel tell you what power profile to run with on any one of 200 different boards.

[@Penfolduk001]

Reading between the lines I get the feeling that the motherboard manufacturers got so sick of Intel blaming them for instability, they've introduced base profiles to call Intel out. That way any profile run above baseline settings that is umstable is Intel's fault.

[@Giraffiti]

It's kind of ironic and crazy how Intel has lost their indirect trust built from when Ryzen 7000 was exploding. I remember during the peak of the Ryzen coverage talking with people who specifically passed AMD AM5 for Intel LGA1700 because of the issues. Now everyone's back to square one lol.

Intel has got to come out on this power issue with a "but really" because. if you use the 188W setting, it issuch a drop from the default settings on most of these boards that the CPU, 14900K/13900K just throttle like mad. I've run a test trying both and the performance drop is more than 20% in several apps we test, and that makes it where a 7800X3D just thrashes a 14900KS.

I wonder if this an issue of mobo mfgs saying "it has a z790, we can run infinite ways through it" but the physical power delivery isn't up to the job. You can get a z790 anywhere from $100 to $1,000 these days but I wouldn't be surprised if they all run the same BIOS power delivery settings. If the minimum specs for Z chipsets is less than the minimum specs for i9 K SKUs you could easily get this not fully supported debacle. Intel isn't helping the situation and ultimately it's their job to ensure partners are adequately following specs and marketing guidelines.

ARM is not a limitation. Really, any ISA is rarely a limiting factor. The ISA can give marginal benefits here and there, but generally speaking the ISA is not what makes or breaks a chip. Jim Keller talked about this when they interviewed him on the WAN show. He's a chip designer who had a hand in Apple's A4 and AMD's original Ryzen, among many other achievements. But long story short, the ISA is essentially just a frontend to the CPU, and it's everything happening behind that frontend that really determines the capabilities of the chip. The ISA has *some* influence, it's just not much.
