How I Learned to Relove the CPU Market
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 พ.ค. 2024
- The GPU market is in a sorry state. Scalping, overpriced cards, no supply. But let's take a trip back through time to when the CPU market was really boring, and how I learned to relove it again. And why. Yes, why. That's the important bit. And we've got something like that to look forward to in the GPU sector... sometime. Somewhere. Hopefully.
0:00 - Current GPU market
1:18 - From single to dual core CPUs
4:43 - Current GPU market AGAIN
5:41 - From quad to eight core
7:46 - Conclusion and future

Got a 1070 right before the prices went nuts. For all I know, this is the card I will have until I retire.
i got an rx 5600xt when everybody was telling me to wait for rtx 30 series and rx 6000 series to launch
as a wise man once said, "look who's laughing now"
I also got a 1070 when things started going down, all I need given I am using 1080p
My 970 died at the beginning of this year, a guy hooked me up with a used 1080ti for 620usd; felt like I got scammed by life, considering the 3060ti was supposed to be a 400 dollar card and I was planning on upgrading this year... But look what happened now - 1660 cards go for 100 bucks higher than what I got this 1080ti for.
Same but then 2 years ago I saw a PC from a retailer for 1200$ with specs better than that price combined if I were to build it myself.
Ahahaha you and me both buddy
"You could buy a previous generation card"
2021:I'll take 200 for a gt 710, pay up
Currently on a performance equivalent of a GT 710 - the GeForce 9600GT.
Wanna buy my EVGA 2070 cc ultra I just got my new pc
i saw a gt 210 selling for £60
bought a gt 1030 for about 75 a few months ago
@@Shpoovy current price on newegg for that card varies from 130-180 usd. Yikes!
What? Who pays 200 for a GT 710?
It is insane that graphics cards released 10 years ago are more than their MSRP on eBay.
Kinda the same as old comic books or something
I have a GTX 480 from 2010, it was 499€ at release. I don't think I can get more than 20€ on eBay...
2016 wasn't 10 years ago (people are only buying AMD GCN4+ and Nvidia Pascal+ at inflated prices)
10 years is a stretch.
3 or 4 years, more like
I'm not kidding, I can sell my 270X that I bought 5 years ago for a profit.
This is sad, I used to love trading used gpus, try out old stuff. But this just ruins it all.
exactly, i sold my 290 for 320 euros a month ago! I bought it for 180 euros 3 years ago!
I wonder how much I can sell my 9600GT for...
@@mix3k818 i sold mine for 25 euros a while ago xd
I'm contemplating whether to sell my GTX 1050 Ti for a profit, which i bought for 120 € back in 2017,
and go back to my old GTX 650 till things calm down.
@@aarriikknn33ll Well, the 9600GT is in such a state that its value is generally rising.
That being said, I might be better off selling it now, since I have an APU anyway (though it's even slower)
When the day comes and the prices become normal and the scalpers stop making money so they stop I'm going to build the best pc i can
That mentality though is what will postpone normal prices. As soon as prices will get more or less close to normal people start buying up. So the prices will struggle to actually land again. Very annoying feature of the world around us and there is nothing we can do...
You're going to be waiting a while in that case.
@@windblownleaf6450 I wouldnt be surprised if I waited another year
Just travel my friend. Tech will always let you down. What won't let you down is a nice week holiday in a tropical paradise.
These sons of mothers don't deserve our money. The shameful way they treated us and their response to the global situation is beyond disrespectful. Private deals, tons of cards being sold without even hitting the market, refusing to address scalper issues and artificially limiting hashrate when the consumer buys the card for 3x the price? Who are they making fun of... That being said, if you can profit or need it for educational purposes go for it but to who you are giving your money to. (I am sorry for taking it of my chest)
Hey Phillip.
Your video on the headonic treadmill was great! It has made me think a lot of the things i do and why i feel demotivated when it comes to certain activities.
Thank you.

We shall never let Intel live down their petty "glue" comment.
Sorry to ask, but what glue comment are you talking about?
@@arielfernandez8196 When AMD announced Ryzen and what made the architecture unique and powerful, a leaked Intel powerpoint presentation bragged about how their chips weren't a bunch of cores just "glued" together like AMDs.
@@BRUXXUS that's so fcking petty of them
@@ayroncajuday6629 It was some truly good times. AMD fan boys talking about many cores and Intel fan boys would refer to bulldozer. Original Zen's launch is by far one of my favourite moments in recent tech history.
Glue is literally a technical term for circuitry connecting two separate chips.
Google "glue logic" and then look at the Infinity Fabric and I/O die and then get back to us.
Ryzen is *literally* glued together. It's not an insult.
It felt surreal when I realized my aging R9 380X is appreciating.
@Félix Sánchez Unfortunately, Nvidia is overpriced here. It does not help that people here also undervalue AMD cards.
At this point, my 600$ gaming PC's worth is probably in the low thousands. Thanks scalpers?
My gtx 1060 i bought 3 years ago is literaly worth more than back when i bought it lol
I made a $250 profit on my refurb 2070 E-GPU
@@JukoYT My 6 year old GTX960 2GB is worth 300€ lol bought it for 200€ back then
@@WorkinDuck its not... i bought a used 960 4gb for 120€ on ebay direct buy no bidding 2 weeks ago. and in general they go for 120/130-160. Just cause some idiots are putting them up for 300 bucks doesnt mean someone will buy it. A couple of weeks prior to the 960 buy i was bidding on a r7 370 2gb and got it for 41 bucks. You can get these type of old cards that can still run some games in 1080p especially esport titlles or something like gtav or whatever for at least a somewhat reasonable price.
300 bucks is what the 1060 6gb goes for right now and thats bad enough.

I was so happy when the Nvidia RTX 3080 was announced. I finally had a good enough reason to upgrade! I could finally see those games Phillip showed, and play new games on Ultra settings! But I just had to wait a couple of months for the prices to drop a little so I could by one. I just had to wait…
Same for me but with RTX 3060ti. I ordered one in december. Still waiting for delivery
just a few more months bro
I’ve been really demotivated this last year, and your hedonic treadmill video hit me quite hard, as I’ve realized how much of my day is doing neither work nor play: JUST procrastination, browsing Twitter or other places that I don’t quite enjoy but take up time nonetheless. I hope to break this cycle soon, and I think your video will be present in my mind until I do. Hope you’re doing well Phil!
That is why I have taken an interest in mini PCs and APU's since 2020. The Ryzen APU's can get you by with most tasks and games at low to mid range settings.
I am interested in the upcoming ones, if zen3 gets paired with a RX6600 that would be amazing.
I'm slowly inching away from my APU, its great but when you really start needin the power the cpu just doesn't deliver
not that I have a good one, just a 3200g
@@Ajee02 Is that a heat problem, or do they differ from normal CPU dies?
@@Ajee02 I'm going for a 4650G to see ho it goes. If I need heavy lifting, I have a gaming laptop and desktop to cut the slack.

GPU market is just sad rn. I just saved up money by march and tried to buy a decent pc. Bought all the components(without a gpu)
So currently im watching this video on my brand new pc with ryzen 5600x and GT710(I bought this for 50$)

I was able to sell my 750 Ti for $120. It hasn’t even seen the light of day in years.
never thought this card would be that hot again. this crisis is insane
What?! I bought an old PC with a 750 Ti in it for $140 back in 2016 or so lol.
I bought a new 750ti for $80 in 2014. It was my first graphics card ever. Good times
this really is a great way to reframe the situation, just imagine the possibilities. ty for the much needed optimism
Ryzen was the most exciting cpu series since nehalem!
Agreed and hopefully Intel's Xe moment follows in the same foot steps.

I used to be a huge Intel fan. Now I am planning to buy a Ryzen chip. Good to see the market evolve.
I used to be an AMD fan, but now I'm rooting for Intel to catch up. It's a strange time for the CPU market.
@@devindykstra
careful, don't let the mainstream Media fill you full of too much crud.
@@taiiat0 oah yeah I'm still level headed. I love my R5 1600 and will continue buying AMD for as long as they have the better product. I'm just worried if AMD gets *too* far ahead like intel during the Bulldozer era.
@@devindykstra
if you think a Ryzen 1600 is beating something Intel has to offer, i think you're exactly being a blind fanboy.
Ryzen 5000 can come close to Intel finally. but mainstream Media doesn't know how to use Computers so they spew bad data all day. makes my job harder when they do.
@@devindykstra the most disgusting part is how everybody is okay with zen 3's increased performance and increased prices. That sounds just like the 20-series RTX gpus compared to 10-series, except that the perf/dollar is even worse! $200 for a 3600 and a 50% price jump we now get the 5600x. But where the heck is the 50% perf boost?
Man im so glad i built a new PC at the start of the lockdowns 2020 with a 2070 super. that card is gold worth now. Awesome video as always!
Good job! You've made me excited about getting excited!
Last 2 videos (this one plus 1klikk) have been great. Great job man. :D
5:20 making good use of that AI upscaling, I see.
I bought the parts for my PC this November assembled it 2 months ago and yet I still don't have a GPU. literally the reason why I bought an Intel processor was to have integrated graphics
I don't know how I found your channel, but I'm very happy that I did.
A very relatable take! Great video.
This is why I had such a bad taste in my mouth when Zen 3 pricing was hiked massively.
I can't hold on to a graphics card when I don't have one
I can't stop thinking about the thumbnail for this video. It's so good lmao
I'd like a 30+ minute video like this. You're describing my journey and a lot of others, I assume.
got really lucky, and snagged a 6800xt in january. i could now sell it for nearly twice the price, and sold my 4 year old 1070 for almost the same prce as i paid for it. insanity.
metro exidus enhanced is the first game that got me believing RT is closer than a few more generations away
I've noticed that since I out on notifs for you that's you appeared in my recommendation on the same day
I'm one of the lucky ones that got the RTX 3070 for $680 in the first batch of cards. After that, they've been either unavailable or $1800+
I feel so proud to have predicted the supply shortages
What a legend
I’ve just give up hope at this point. Hopefully my 1080 will keep on chugging a little longer.
bruh my 1060 is still flying all these years
I stream and edit on 1050ti, If only i had your problems...
@@hohladych Same bruh, and the computer repair shop I went to even said that mine was underperforming, but it held on for 4 years and still do today
I sold my Vega 56 for 700 and got an RX 570 for 160. Best decision of my life.
ayy, that's the same GPU I have!
So you lost ... over 50% of the performance and made 540$. Eh?
Thanks, needed this
love these videos
phillip is going ham with the upscaling lol
It is also worth mentioning, that the security flaws in Intel CPUs, parts, which were responsible for many speed improvement had to be disabled causing existing processor working on a slower speed, but AMD were not affected by those issues. That also caused Intel CPUs become less favourable as these changes had to be implemented while on BIOS/UEFI level and disabling certain features. Actually these changes were less to be seen in the news, but sure made me think twice before I wanted to buy a new CPU for my current motherboard. So I decided not to and kept collecting my money.
I recently exchanged my 2600K with a 5600X. It served me well for many years and I never saw a reason to upgrade before now. On a sidenote, i've worked in IT for 25 years and most in my profession seems as pragmatic as me.
I remember when Doom3 came out around the same time as Athlon64 CPUs to run it. That felt like we reached the peak of technology in the early 2000s.
I am glad that I got into the game recently when ADM released the first ryzen CPUs.
Still bought i5-9600k. For gaming ofc
I was pleasantly surprised last year when I ordered a Ryzen 5 3600 for my server. Great CPU.
That spider at the beginning made me uncomfortable when it was falling and its legs spread out
I used to own one of these bad boys up untill few years ago. FX-8300 to be exact. Id get free heating while playing games and free frustration from bad performance. Now rocking a ryzen 5 2600x, couldnt be more happy with the upgrade.
In hindsight I'm glad I decided to buy and build a PC in mid 2020, I remember there was a brief period when Ampere was announced and second hand 2080Tis were going for cheap, it wasn't even that long ago, those sellers got doubly screwed. At that time I felt a bit dumb because I only just bought a 2070 Super a few months ago. I'm sure the GPU market will recover, these things can change surprisingly fast.
Good video. Exactly how I feel in some ways. But I worry the market won't change back and world issues will be blamed for not dropping prices and no one will undercut prices becasue they no lo her need to. I also see a false scarcity issue being a problem. And I worry that even if it all goes back to normal...there are now enough super rich people due to the vile unbalance in wealth...that all the possible cards will be bought by them. Or worse by the criminal / scalper market ensuring they keep their monopoly for ever more. I don't think the people who should care about their loyal customers care any more about any thing but making all the money :(
I managed to get a 3080ti at MSRP. I had originally given up on getting a 3000-series card, but when I was buying some new ram the website just happened to have gotten them that day.
AMD's Zen moment is how i feel about Intel's entry in the dGPU market with Xe. People are really under estimating Raja and his team.
I've been tuning out hardware reviews for some of the same reasons while the CPU market has mostly recovered from shortages I'm not even considering a new CPU being on a Ryzen 3600 but GPU's are where it hurts the most for me as I'm running a 5700XT and have a 4K monitor and while it meets my needs right now I know this card's useful life for 4K is going to be limited to only holding me over for a generation or two at best if I want to keep settings turned up like I have been in most my titles.
my 980ti just had to kick the bucket right after ampere launched😭
F
My GTX 970 died earlier this year. Luckily my friend sold me his old 1650 Super for cheap, so I have basically have the same performance as I did with the 970. I was planning on upgrading last year but held off for the new generation... Big mistake
I love the UBM roasting
1:06 more than a decade ago, i was told sapphire cards are the best because they tend to fail less often than other brands. i couldn't confirm that yet, but so far has been true. i've used an overclocked radeon 5670 for 11 years until i finally decided it was a good moment to sell it. i remember finishing doom 2016 twice on that card at a miserable 20fps on 360p.
also related to the subject. a friend of mine had also a sapphire radeon but it was a 5770. he still uses it to play older games. a few years ago he thought the vapor chamber (its a 5770 vapor-x. comes with a small vapor chamber under the heatsink that looks suspiciously similar to intels stock heatsinks ones) had dried and the water evaporated somehow because it was running even hotter after cleaning it and replacing the thermal paste. it happened to be some corosion on the copper plate of the chamber and not enough torque on the heatsink.
Thumbnail game on point 😂
Man, I hope the comeback happens.
Fortunetly prebuilts are priced fairly, at least in my country
2021 is pretty much the year of prebuilts, they are in most places the best way to get a good pc with a good gpu
Yeah I only joined at Bulldozer but was stung when I picked up an FX 4350. Tbh it did me well enough but it was day and night moving to an i5 8300h laptop which could blow that CPU out of the water and for only 45w vs the 4350's 125w! I did only pay around £65 for the FX cpu tbf. I was very lucky to pick up a RTX 3070 which at the time I thought I was paying far too much for but for the first time in my life I could afford to splash out a bit on my PC so I did it. £770, the same cost as the entirety of my gaming laptop I had before which had that i5, 8GB (upgraded to 16) of RAM and a GTX 1050ti notebook (plenty of cooling to, no doubt it was slightly slower than a desktop variant but not by much at all). I did get the Aorus Master 3070 from Gigabyte which was one of the more expensive 3rd party models and it was more than if I had got hold of one somewhere else but I paid a localish computer company just over the odds at the time for the product which is now £840 retail at Currys (a Botters wet dream I bloody hate Currys haha) and on Ebay they are selling for between £1100 and £1300 or so although I heard someone paid £1400 for a Suprim from MSI I believe. The market is insane the only positive is the money for very little work that is available as if you manage to pick up a card you can sell it on for a lot more but Ive deliberately held off. You can also mine which I did for around a week, made just over £50 and stopped lol (so really I paid £720 as that £50 I made was net thee gross was more but I paid a months worth of electric as well, just over £30 with the card running at less than 140w rather than its default 220w). Safe to say Ive been hooked on seeing what the markets are doing and getting great ideas to make a bit of quick cash but at the same time its starting to drag and I just wish prices would go back to normal so I could get my partner a new machine too rather than her having to use that gaming lappy I had for a couple years before her. Heres to hoping things calm down soon but we also need to talk about how to solve these shortages as we know they wont stop now and its only going to get worse and worse the more and more people gain access to technology and the funds to purchase it. We cant exactly tell these countries to get their own chips as we are getting them abroad in the first place XD (also a lot of these developing nations are HUGE in comparison to the UK or even the US).
I bought my 1060 like 4 years ago and I'm totally happy with it. I can play any games at 120+ FPS at Medium to High settings, and now even if AMD's FSR isn't that great, it'll let me enjoy them at even higher quality. Not buying a GPU until the market stabilizes.
Hopefully I'll watch this video a couple years later with a 3080 or a 4080 that will finally relace my 1080Ti which is slowly starting to run out of breath in UWQHD resolution. Thanks for the cool video Philip.
Ill buy your 1080 by then

Ryzen was good but it wasn't until 3rd gen that it was actually competitive for gaming, I'm not an intel fanboy but if you look at FPS benchmarks for a 4 core intel and a 8 core amd of Ryzen 1st and 2nd gen, intel wins in the vast majority of games, although I'm happy that and has caught up with their 5th gen products beating intel in the current price categories they're in, just hope they release a 5500x as I don't need the threads or I might just get a 5300x as upgrading little and often is best as all the CPUs are on the same architecture so theoretically they can overclock to similar levels although higher end silicon is of course slightly better, anyway, thanks for the video Phil, I love the channel and I'm glad you are uploading on a regular but not too regular basis, 40 mins of videos a week is good for me maximum ;)
bought a sapphire Nitro+ 6800XT in January for £850, felt like i over paid a bit, but then when i went to sell my Vega 64 a few week later, i managed to sell it for £550 on Ebay because mining had started to take off again, so my 6800XT basically only cost me £300, and now having seen the 6700XT retailing for £900+, i'm so happy i pulled the trigger when i did

(post this during a Cryto fall)
Ah yes
Crypto fall means it's more profitable to mine.
@@Turnip_ Do you have any idea how mining or blockchain works?
@@zed7038 Yes and no imo. From what I understand, when there's abnormal activity on a blockchain, like people moving their Cryto to sell, miners gets higher profits. However, if it calms down, or if the value of the Cryto keeps on falling, the profits could be lower overall(unless it rebounds, that's a lot of profit).
I do hope, however, wish that people can actually get the new GPUs.
@@michaelmu6765 Mining is more profitable at the moment due to the increase in transactions and Ethereum having higher gas fees.
As for GPUs, everyone will have to wait a year or so to get one but production volumes will also go up because GPU producers are making more revenue and cryptocurrencies are slowly moving towards proof of stake systems (no GPU mining) so in a couple of years GPU mining will be obsolete, which means GPUs will be really cheap. It is a long wait but I think it's more than worth it.
The idea of getting a 3000 series for retail price feels like fantasy. Buying VR is cheaper than getting a 4 year old card.
ok that gave me some hope...
I remember when you could get P4 boards with 2 cpu slots on them...
it still hurts a little knowing how good the 2nd hand parts market was a few years ago (2017/18) when Ryzen gen 2 was released. Now everything is out of reach to many and it sucks. hope we come out of this soon
it is crazy to think that in Jan 2021 I managed to get 2 3070 just a few weeks before GPU prices skyrocketed enough to make a single 3070 match the value I paid for those 2 in Jan this year
Whatever opinion you have on Intel, AMD or NVidia, its always healthy for the market to have competition - if there is only one company producing certain thing, they dont have to worry about actually improving their product, or making the pricing fair/reasonable, since the customer has nowhere to go for another decent product.
That happened in the CPU market, when AMD left it for a few years - Intel got lazy, did barely any improvements, increased pricing etc. When AMD made their new CPU, Intel had to actually start trying again.
That't why monopoly is such a bad thing, certain big brands also just try to literally purchase their competition to avoid having to spend resources improving their products, which could be more expensive than outright purchasing the competition.
Prebuilt PC setups: *It's my time to shine*

AMD Bulldozer was one that scorched my entire motherboard when it tried running multithreading, lol
I'm still using my ol' FX-6300, though I've overclocked it to 4.5gHz,
If processors were more affordable in my country, I would've thrown it away a long time ago,
Fortunately, I've managed to snag a RX580 a few years ago for only 100 euros,
The pairing between the FX and the RX is incredibly imbalanced, It's kind of cute in a way, but it works :)
FX-6300 squad roll out! Currently playing through Red Dead Redemption 2 with it. The most impressive game I've ever played on the weakest CPU ever made. Just that fact alone made this CPU totally worth it. I think when I bought it in 2012, even an i3 was still double the price here. It's a lot like the game - red, (almost) dead, and it redeemed itself at the end. Long live bulldozer!
The fx cpus can still compete with ps4 or even ps4 pro no problem. Just realize it's more a 30 fps cpu rather than sixty

My biggest accomplishment is running total war Warhammer 2 on mine
@@cool.guy. how fast or slow did it run?
