    A note on Ryzen on Windows 11: We did not experience the CPU-swap performance degradation bug in our testing. Our Ryzen bench was running a fresh install with the patch and chipset driver from the get-go; It was actually geared for Windows 10 if we couldn't get the patch + driver in time for testing, and wiped for the fresh install once they became available. -AY

    Before Ryzen, Intel's financial incentive has been to improve products as little as possible to maximize profits. Now their financial incentive is to make as good products as possible to surpass AMD's performance and to stop bleeding market share to them. So now we have two companies with the financial incentive for better products, which is awesome for us consumers!

      "that wattage and thermals"
      That is the 12900K overclocked or infinite turbo. In real world, the use is way lower due to Big-Little design, you overclock a 5950X (infinite turbo) and the power draw and heat is the same (around 220 or 240 watts) but the 5950X has 20% lower IPC and lower clockspeed.

    • @DanielVDGarde
      @DanielVDGarde Před 2 lety +53

      ​@@saricubra2867 In the real world, the 12900K is 3% faster in gaming, and with all benches combined it just tops the 5900X, but is still 9% behind the 5950X.
      And that is while it is using DDR5, that accounts for a 7% increase in games and overall.
      So I'm excited that Intel made this jump, like really excited! But I'm not impressed, where the 12900K shines in benches, it's also using way more power, almost 100% more power in fully MT loads and 35% in mixed loads. Even 8% in gaming, the only good this is that Intel at idle consumes 7watt less.
      I might want this chip for the single-tread performance, that looks amazing, but other than that, it's just bruteforced performance with the DDR5 uplift and a major increase in power consumption over the competition.

    You should have included DDR4 benchmarks too, as most people aren't too keen on spending $200 on only 16GB of RAM. And I don't think the 12600k is better than the 5600x (from a value perspective) for the reason that boards are much more expensive, you need a beefier cooler and PSU, and I don't imagine that it'd be all that great with DDR4.

      True.

      Also since it's not just a simple cpu swap , the cost of DDR5 ram and new mobo will make it a lot expensive than rayzen.

      To appease the thermal envelope gods. Seriously though the core counts keep rising so having all cores as "high" power comes at a price to thermals and power usage.

    The other thing I've noticed after checking prices today that it's ungodly expensive to get ddr5 memory and to get a compatible motherboard so the platform cost as of right now is going to be more than double than the cost of getting a current generation AMD or Intel setup. I like to see how things pan out over the next month to see how the real cost of motherboard and memory add to the platform cost of alder lake. I mean hell, just check new way right now and it would cost me $770 to pick up 32 gigs of ddr5 memory. That is absolutely insane when the memory cost almost double the CPU price. The motherboard cost from what I can see so far is around 450 to $500 at this moment in time. Which means you're going to pay a hefty penny for that kind of performance and as far as I'm concerned unless I see something more reasonable there's absolutely no reason to spend so much extra money for such a minimal performance difference when you look at it overall.

      Does it support DDR4? I don't think any of the motherboard manufacturers have released them yet at least.

      window 10 doesn't support these chips and the next and chips will support ddr5 so is better to use the latest tech to compare.

    Exciting! Will say I wish you tested with DDR4. The price puts it on a totally weird, whacko comparison no matter the performance, and God knows there's some serious benefits to it but yea. Totally screws with the price/perf.

      @Steamrick Před 2 lety +4

      DDR4 performance is the same as DDR5 at much lower cost.
      It just isn't worth investing into DDR5 right now because when you next upgrade, current DDR5 kits will be real bad, same as what happened with initial DDR4 years ago.

    Considering the 12th hen CPUs have more cores, and more cache total…. It’s kinda expected the thing takes more power when all of those P and E cores are running at max.
    One thing that is good about these CPUs, the E cores doing all of the background tasks, like running something like steam, discord, and other Windows default and other apps, leaves open room for those P cores to be unrestricted by background tasks.
