Yea Geekbench is terrible

They went up 40K last year

They are making a big deal about how it's super optimized and designed for only one socket, my theory is they don't want to sound incoherent about that whole thing

I think he knows it says AM5 only, but could it easily be hacked to, or even just work as-is with AM4, or with different backplate etc. Sure it's not optimized for it and they might want to advertise it as specifically made for 1 socket, but it might still work with AM4. I wouldn't bet on it...

Probably EDSFF drives would be better ie E1.S, E3.S or E3.S 2T for the chongus fast and hungry bois, but yea not coming to consumers, motherboards wanna be cheap. Maybe CXL will save the day :P

DLSS 3 by adding frames averaging them from the frames around it. So the performance claims are bogus, who knows how well it compares in reality.

Oooo this is sexy, but pricey... ouch. Too bad there isn't an AM4 adapter kit or something

Uhhh.... No? Now what you could say with DLSS, at the same image quality Nvidia has much better FPS, though ofc with games that have FSR 2.X that lead is reduced. Same with Ray-tracing. I'll give AMD that they tend to age better due to improvements with drivers over time. AMD is great, but you'd...

Sexy 7900 price, hopefully that can also translate to the X3D variant being well priced in their line-up as well.

Damn... That sucks. Has Atmos, Dolby Vision too. Haven't even opened mine yet lmao

Huh, not for everybody but appreciate the innovation and letting the rich pay for the R&D for this kind of stuff XD I've always liked the idea of the base station separate from the display, easier to manage heat, theoretically base station upgradeable and panel can be re-used and vice-versa...

I mean the normal NUC hasn't disappeared, the fact they are still doing compute cards is pretty cool!

Is there even any benefit compared to 8+ Gen 1? Says 3GHz, 8+ Gen 1 can do up to 3.2

LOL try 200$ :cry:

This only applies to mobile Celeron and Pentium, not the Core i series. I haven an AMD processor/CPU, or Ryzen 7, or Ryzen 5800x or AMD 5800x etc makes it more accessible to the masses. Most won't know the model of their CPU, maybe the brand, maybe the position of the stack, maybe then gen (12th...
