    More shocking than AMD coming back to life and thriving is that Lisa Su is both capable of doing that AND sustaining momentum. In fairness, that's because AMD has a lot of catching-up to do, but usually "revolutionary leaders" don't make for good leaders in calmer, more prosperous times. Lisa Su is just that good.

    Jim Keller is a legend, not just because he's probably the biggest tech genius on the planet, but because he's really chill with a great sense of humour. People say that the FX-series was horrible but, for most people's purposes, the FX-8350 was more than good enough. I used an FX-8350 from 2012 to 2017, a CPU that I bought brand-new (with a cooler) for literally $170CAD.
    I was initially looking at getting a Ryzen 5 1600X, not because I needed to upgrade, but because I was interested in the new architecture. At the time, my FX-8350 ran every game that I wanted it to without issue. I had just wanted to see what Zen was like and, after five years of the same CPU, I was ready for a change. I walked into a Canada Computers and they had an open-box R7-1700 for literally $20CAD more than an R5-1600X and it came with the most unique Wraith cooler that AMD has ever released, the Wraith Spire RGB. IIRC, only two or three CPUs ever came with that cooler which makes it a bit of a curio. It worked just fine.
    My R5-3600X came with a standard Wraith Spire and I didn't bother switching it. My stepfather bought an R9-3900X and that came with a Wraith Prism. The problem was that he HATES RGB (he's REALLY old-school that way) and was complaining abouti it. So, I offered him my unused Wraith Spire in exchange for his Wraith Prism snd he bit like Harry the Tuna so now I'm using a Wraith Spire. The AMD box coolers are so underrated that it's downright criminal as that Wraith Spire, a cooler that came with a hexacore CPU, cools his R9-3900X dodecacore CPU just fine.
    This is why I didn't begrudge AMD when they switched their hexacore CPUs to the Wraith Stealth. The Wraith Spire was clearly overkill and, since so many noobs think that box coolers are unusable anyway, I'm sure that a lot of Wraith Spires went unused. That was money that AMD was literally pissing down the drain so the switch to the Wraith Stealth, a cooler that is far more suitable for six cores, was a smart move in my opinion. As for the Intel stock cooler, well, to avoid saying the 1,001 negative things about it that are in my head, I'll just say that it's good enough for an i3. 😁
    We all owe Jim Keller a huge debt of gratitude because the PC landscape is what it is today LITERALLY because of him. First, he created AMD64, the 64-bit x86 instruction set for the Athlon64, an instruction set that today, ALL x86 CPUs use (AMD, Intel and VIA). Then we also have him to thank for Zen (Ryzen) which not only brought AMD back from the brink, but also gave us, without a doubt, the greatest x86 platform ever created, AM4. Here we are in 2024, EIGHT YEARS after AM4 was released and AMD somehow STILL managed to release new AM4 CPUs in 2024 (R7-5700X3D anyone?).
    To say that everything Jim touches turns to gold would be an understatement. He doesn't have a touch of gold, it's more like he has the Rhodium touch!
    Thank you Jim, for everything (and I do mean EVERYTHING!). There aren't many of us old-schoolers still around that remember the trick of using an RLL controller with an MFM hard drive. I was just lucky to have built my first PC in 1988, before I was even a teenager. This makes me REALLY understand and appreciate all you've done for us.
    I can't wait to see what you achieve with AI, but please, just don't call it SkyNet, eh? 😉

      Bulldozer in gaming was fine. This idea that it sucked was bullshit. In fact, if you were an early streamer, the 8 core 8350 out performed the intel 3770k when gaming+streaming. Sure raw gaming the 3770k was better.... It was also significantly cheaper.
      I dont care about the bullshit "amd got sued and lost meme" they didnt lose, it was cheaper to settle than to pay lawyers for an unknown amount of years to prove they know more than some customer twat who decided to sue. Everyone who had bulldozer back then, saw in windows 8 cores reported. It wasnt until right before ryzen that magically the lawsuit came about, AFTER Microsoft changed their code which wrongfully reported bulldozer as 4 core. You can literally run an older version of windows and see 8 cores reported. Likewise run a newer version and it says 4.... So the whole lawsuit was based on microsoft, who wasnt even part of the lawsuit 🤦

      My 50 cents to this: if AMD didn't make Bulldozer, they would not have been forced to build a CPU design from the scratch, that is now known as Zen.
      So if Thuban was revamped yet another time, we wouldn't have Zen by now and AMD maybe struggling to advance, just like Intel is.
      Thuban aka K10 still was based on K8 aka Athlon64 and afair the Phenom 1 had some serious problems, which the Phenom II only adressed and barely made improvements.
      Anyhow: don't look back and ask questions for the past, as they can't tell anything new...

      My point was that Phenom/Thuban had good IPC. If AMD could have squeezed out 10% with a redesign, and 4000+ with a smaller node it would have been competitive. And adding on 2 more cores with node maturity would have resulted in a better chip overall.
      Overclocked Thuban matched Bulldozer in the benchmarks.

    "something that blows my mind is: a product will arrive, and us monkeys, who basically are just like 'I dunno, oo oo oo run game' you know, run frames per second, are going 'hey guys, you got the pricing way wrong'"
    Honestly, whoever sets the pricing at AMD is an idiot.
    How the hell did they think that the RX 7900 XT would sell at $900 when the RX 7900 XTX was nearly 20% faster at $1000? Any sane person would have set the MSRP of the 7900 XT at $800, because it's obvious that it would fall to that price almost immediately anyway.
    It's not just that either. Most Ryzen CPUs fall way below their MSRP almost immediately. AMD could get much better reviews without losing a significant amount of their profit margins by setting the MSRP lower.
    As a random example, the Ryzen 5 7600X was horribly overpriced for a 6-core CPU on its launch at $300, but it was selling at $200 2 months later, which was a great deal, and it's still selling for that price a whole year after that. If you're going to sell most of them for $200 anyway, why not set it to that price at launch and get rave reviews?

      @bayanzabihiyan7465 Před měsícem +14

      Oh this is a fun one.
      It’s actually fully expected and intention that most people will gravitate to the 7900XTX.
      You see, the “demand” which scales linearly with performance with additional boosts towards the lower end where most people want to buy.
      But you also forget the “supply” portion of this pricing equation.
      The 7900XT and 7900XTX are the exact same piece of silicon and that GCD is around 300mm2 which yields quite well.
      And that means that most Navi31 dies manufactured are XTX capable whereas only some are XT capable and some just broken.
      When you don’t have a good supply of XT, you need to price it higher so that demand for that product matches its supply.
      $100 discount actually makes sense for a 300mm2 cut-down GPU, it’s just that chiplets makes the entire math wonky. A monolithic part has worse yields and that means more supply available for cut down parts.
      It’s also why the 7800XT is priced much more normal. It’s just the full Navi32 die, and the 7700XT looks like poor value.
      You obviously need to do a mixture of both. Price your products to meet the consumer demand profile, but then shift pricing around to meet your available supply profile.
      And then finally optimize the “margin vs volume” which balances making less on each product to sell more products, but then competing with the rest of AMD for wafer allocation as other markets often have much better margins than consumer dGPU.
      Yea it’s a bit of a complex mess, but there is some logic in the pricing.

    Aside from the odd Intel rig that ends up in my possession from time to time, I've had now... 6 different AMD cpu's over the years, and 4 gpu's. Maybe 5, not sure on one of them from a long time ago. And in regards to Jim's comment about how the attitude of the company was 'Well, last attempt sucked, so this one with Zen will probably too'.
    I totally understand why. All during the time that I was using the Bulldozer and Excavator architectures, people were complaining and dunking on the FX series and the Apu lineup left and right all day and night long. That takes a toll, even if the cpu's were not actually that bad. Based on my own experience and observations, many people weren't following the guidelines properly around stuff like ram selection; so they were kneecapping themselves from the get go. I figured it out right away when my cpu upgrade didn't seem like one at first, because some of the same problems persisted, along with new ones. Swapped the ram for faster, and voila; problems all gone. Mostly. Needed a new GPU at the time too apparently, but that didn't become more apparent until the other problems were subsided.
    Anyways. I still have that FX-8350 Black Edition, and the 290x that I put with it. But the motherboard I think went kaput. MSI...

    my question would have been "are you prepared to be the winners?" cause i bet there are people like me who were "intel forever" til the current issues and recent amd success and are thinking about zen5 to be their next upgrade, I'm afraid amd is not ready to produce for the huge masses and might be hard to come by with potential scalping going on at launch and beyond. i hope they can scale the company quickly cause they still seem to have an underdog mentality.

    It's true, x86 was really the original open-source architecture, before open-source was a thing. Intel did the original architecture upto the 32-bit version, and the 64-bit version was done by AMD. It's obviously not as open-source now, it's a duopoly, and Intel and AMD seem to have made up with each other now. That's why architectures like RISC-V have a better chance of being the next powerhouse architecture, it's truly open-source.

    I must confess that a 6800xt / 5800x3D is impressive. I also love the fact it's the only way to balance competitiveness in the market as Nvidia's monopoly would most certainly screw us even harder as Apple does. We don't have to go to economics to learn this shit. We gotta support and give its flowers to AMD.

    7000 series GPU's have been plagued with driver timeouts in DX12 games for months and months with little or no acknowledgement. You had to limit your fps and boost clock so the GPU's don't hit 90-100% utilization, effectively neutering the performance you paid for. Driver 24.4.1 *seems* to have finally resolved this. At least in my experience, playing helldiver 2. Still, it has really hurt my opinion of AMD. This took nearly a year. I probably won't be buying another AMD GPU again. But I'll wait and see how next gen compares to competition

    • @789uio6y

      They no superior to Intel. And they always cost a lot more than Intel, not good pricing. And they price really doesn't worth it. They only can compete with gaming, in multitasking and office work and blender they suck hard to Intel, that's a fact. Also in gaming, 78003d as laughable performance in starfield compare to Intel also in dragon digma 2 and in horizon forbidden west. Intel i9 13 and 14 generation are like 78003d if not better. Intel already has the best igpu, yes yes, arc igpu destroy AMD 780m.
      Intel has best officieny now with core series. In next two generation it will have 2nm node and 1.8nm node, the next generation already will be in this year. It has a lot better node than AMD, TSMC will get 2nm node only in 2026😂 lol! Intel will beat it's competitors and the stocks of Intel raise very big.

      Mostly because their initial pricing was horrible, and depending on the price range, they don't really have a competitor.
      zen4 pricing on release was a bad joke besides the 7950X, it took a month of people sucking them off for intel to release raptor lake and offer nearly twice the multi threading performance, better single core, for the same price tag as their amd equivalents, which in hand, made amd cut down their fomo pricing.
      13600K was beating the 7700X by a mile, while costing 20usd more than the 7600X, 13700K was even with the 7900X and faster in single core, while having the same msrp as the 7700X, and the 13900K was 100usd cheaper than the 7950X, and similar story, better ipc, multithreading just slightly faster, mostly app dependant.
      They simply can't suddenly hike their prices up again, as good as the 7800X3D is for gaming, it's still is an 8 core, which will get beaten by intels i7 from 12th gen in multi core, let alone the newer ones.

      @@BenoHourglass intel hit the Problem called Greed. Ther Products was so overpriced and are still nowdays and all they do is increasing Power usage with a very old Architecture.
      Intel had basicly no competition when they released I core 2nd gen then they went to 3 and 4th gen still no competition and then 5th and 6th gen still no competition and they charged for 5% more performance with same 4c 8t 400-600$ per chip.
      They stoped to inovate very early meanwhile AMD tested and tryed new things not only in the CPU segment, they did that with GPU's too, the first HBM2 memory tested on AMD cards and the smallest GPU back then with a lot of power was from AMD.
      Then AMD hit the Rx 5000 series and they had a road map for that and with Rx6000 they delivered a very good product and with rx7000 they again delivered a good product.
      meanwhile Nvidia overpriced ther RTX 2000 cards then 3000 cards (and we all know how the cards aged) and then with the 4000 cards and the low Power consume cards deliver bad but the high consume cards consume better then the 3000 series but still alot.

    one thing that bring down AMD ...is using flaw HT/SMT tech from early 2000's that IBM introduce first before intel HT and AMD half ass working CMT that they had intel x86 license to use SMT as well but AMD chose their owned CMT and believe its better than SMT until it was proven wrong by benchmarks and many buldozer releases that take 3 releases to cancel entire CMT and eat their pride and use intel SMT tech on their x86 cores then amd have complete same tech from intel HT when intel opensource to its all x86 license. Least intel cares for AMD and sad to see AMD keep falling apart and not want company filed bankruptcy for their arrogance mistake to prove they are superior than intel SMT but in reality INTEL kept this tech a secret of flaws that even intel says that tech is not great in long run when dat bits are only good in small chucks vs ARM cpu's does big chunks of bits due to lack of SMT...and extra cores do make huge difference in big data threads that no longer need to wait when it has entire core access for extra cache and data bits from memory sub system

    Hardware is one thing, while AMD blocks BIOS updates for 300 chipsets, doesn't support APU drivers, drops Vega while selling Vega laptops, hides rebar in laptop BIOS, cripples feature support in all last gen video cards, latest example is HAGS, which got one driver for RDNA, now only RDNA3 because frame gen needs it, while not supporting RDNA2, so Nvidia users have better AMD framegen than AMD native hardware. Also rumors of AM5+, so AM5 users no upgrade path. So good job for performance, but the long term support is absolute garbage if not outright crippled planned obsolescence, and nobody calls out the drivers for deliberate crippling only bugs. Dude, proper support is more important.
