I think those are realistic scores, they are from MSI internal team and not from AMD directly

Skip generation, looks like a complete letdown.. https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-admits-core-ultra-9-285k-will-be-slower-than-i9-14900k-in-gaming This chinese slides are Intel Official ones, in reality it could be worse.

Interesting video about the new zen chips.

New gaming nr 1 cpu from the looks of it. Let's see what the other x3d bring. Alleged Ryzen 9000X3D Cinebench R23 scores emerge, 10% to 28% faster than 7000X3D https://videocardz.com/newz/alleged-ryzen-9000x3d-cinebench-r23-scores-emerge-10-to-28-faster-than-7000x3d

So 5090 more W rated but Nvidia is sticking to the single 12VV-2x6 cable. What could go wrong? 🤪 https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5090-to-pcie-5-0-interface-displayport-2-1a-uhbr20-and-a-single-12x-2x6-power-connector. I think i will wait a couple of months with the purchase until we will see if it will burn or not. Dont want the headache to RMA it after a couple of months...

Fresh credible leaks for 5090 😁 https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5090-and-rtx-5080-specs-leaked

I think there is a good possibility that both ccds of the 12 and 16 cores will have 3d vcache on them. That will be great if true.

Just for the Lulz, i found this in a it storage at my firm i needed to clean and sort out the stuff 🤣🤣. Almost unused aswell

You can get zorin Core version for free, like everything Linux it's free, the pro version is just to support the devs and get some productivity tools bundle like Libre office, and Adobe alternatives and so on, and 4 new dektop themes and customizations Uis. You can always upgrade to pro when you want and also you can install all the programs from the store application if you need GUI or have some fun and learn some Linux and install then in Terminal with sudo apt and so on.

I also have it as dual boot with win 11 on my yoga pro..no problems whatsoever. Just use the instructions on their website how to install it together with w11. It will be flawless.

Install ZorinOs or Linux Mint and you will be amazed from Linux Easymode (Windows style)😁 I have on my Work laptop ZorinOS 17 Pro installed, its like 40 dollars, just to reward the devs for a great job. This is the best Ubuntu Distro if you need a Windows or MacOS GUI. It installed all the laptops drivers without a problem! Heck even windowa sometimes doesnt install some toouchpads drivers and so on. ZorinOS is really great! https://zorin.com/os/ I will install it in the near future on my Desktop aswell just to see how it is for gaming and other power hungry software.

Wanted to sell mine aswell in that time didn't do it and I haven't checked in ages the second hand market for 4090, just did it today and did the prices took a nose dive or are scams? I see a lot of 4090 around 1000-1200 euro..like 500 less like last time.. is the same in US? At these prices i will just keep it until 5090 or just skip a generation..

Little late but i think they are crap, the touchpad on my Asus G15 Zephyrus just died from nothing, 10 months old machine. Also didnt use it that much, i had always a KB and mouse attached to it. Just did a new Win install cause i wanted to sell it and after the install touchpad is dead. Doesnt work in BIOS, new WIN 11 Install or in Ubuntu.. tried bios downgrade, hard reset, drivers and everything that is to be done.. Guess ill send it to RMA, lets see what they say. But thats is with Asus for me, after the AMD Board was crap now the laptop is also crap 🤣

MSI 800-series motherboards feature extra 8-pin PCIe power connector for next-gen AI GPUs. Hmmm so more power hungry 5090 or they are adding an extra cable after the 12 hpwr fiasco. https://videocardz.com/newz/msi-800-series-motherboards-feature-extra-8-pin-pcie-power-connector-for-next-gen-ai-gpus

Windows 11 is crap as usual😁

Well well, generation skip😃. It's remind me of the 13 to 14th gen intel cpus. Useless amd generation. I think the x3d will also be duds. But at least we can put some money aside😀

Also don't forget about that new Curve Shaper option, will be interesting to see what can we do with it on the oc part. @jaybee83 we care for stock perf only on AMD😁😁😁🤪

JAY sometimes is a NOOB I mean everyone is running 6000 mhz on am5 atm.. also hes always choosing stupid RAM...but at least he's figured out now🤣🤣

Also PBO is the way

At least they are good in Linux and avx 512🫠. Ill will wait for x3ds.

How slimy can Intel get????🤮 Intel has denied two of my 14900K RMAs (instability) and stated they will confiscate or destroy them if I proceed with the warranty process. https://www.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/s/dXBEzcXPdA

Bad times at intel indeed, that workforce cut is massive..really bad decision making across the board. Losing on all fronts. No worries @Papusan that Ceo will get a good chunk of money if he goes away. He doesn't care. But the employees and we the customers will get screwed again😑

Significant lower price for the new Amd chips. https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/amd-ryzen-9000-price-listings-now-on-best-buy The prices range from $279 for the Ryzen 5 9600X to $599 for the Ryzen 9 9950X. Although the price tags look reasonable, we recommend approaching them cautiously since they could be placeholders. Let's see how the new x870 mainboards will pe priced and also the x3d chips later.
