1:15 That Ryzen 5 7520U is the biggest scam right there, it's quad core Zen2 with single channel memory being sold as Ryzen 7000, Intel also has low end CPUs but I don't think they have ever released an "i5" with single channel. It's an Athlon/Pentium tier product.
You sure it's single channel? Tech Power up says is dual channel... however I do agree a Zen 2 processor being called a 7th gen is really scummy! AMD's site also says 2x1R LPDDR5-5500 so that dual channel single rank.
Also uses the “6nm” process that the “better” processors use. It’s way geared to power efficiency and smoothness of the system but graphics is not its forte. Architecture is not the whole story but any laptop with 8gb ram today is troll at least 16gb is acceptable.

I am use to the Ryzen 5,7,9 4 digit naming convention like Ryzen 7 7800x3d is simple to understand; but they use AI hype names sux that both Intel and AMD do this, you are so right Vex. Back when you had Motorola 68000, 68020, etc and Intel 8086, 286, 386 it was real simple to understand what the cpu can do.
This is crass obfuscation taken to it's logical conclusion. It demonstrates an utter contempt for the needs of the customer. Governments should take their hands out of these corporate pockets and legislate in defense of the consumer. Ha! Fat chance!
Could you imagine if they kept the "4080 12Gb" name instead of changing to the 4070 Ti? What would they have called the 4070 Ti Super, the 4080 12Gb 16Gb?
As if big tech product naming wasn't bad enough already, prebuilt companies compound this problem by omitting SO MANY details about the parts that you're getting. They will not tell you if their listing is "RTX 4070" if you're getting a 4070 GDDR6 or GDDR6X. They won't even bother to list the brand of 4070 you're getting, and most likely, it'll be the cheapest one they can slap in a build while still being able to stamp "4070" on it. With how bad all this naming is, your best bet is to just Google everything you see, and compare them using results from trusted sources. The age of being able to compare CPUs by their name alone is dead.
Comparing minute details is exactly what I do when searching for a new graphical processing unit for the exact reasons your comment depicts. Research is always worth it as without it disappointment is inevitable.
I dont know if bro does not know it, but the chinese brands like xiomee, oppo, etc etc. pioneered this namibg scheme, which used it moderately at that time. And the apple started using it too.
Any computer in the store is likely a few months old sitting on the shelves. It’s not that new. New CPUs take months to reach mass production. So they are likely to be last generation as the companies announce new products.
I'm not gonna lie, when I first got into custom PCs I got a 1650 pre-build over a 1080ti all because they were priced the same and the 1650 was a bigger number (thus sounding better). So I definitely can relate to this and I wasn't even a total tech illiterate at the time either.
Lowering specs on products with the same names after reviews, is some of the shittiest tactics in tech. Always call this BS out so customers don't get screwed over.
0:59 I feel like Intel made it simpler. The Intel Core Ultra and Intel i-Series are technically two different CPU lineups. Also, desktop CPUs won't have any letters other than 'K' (unlocked) or 'F' (no integrated graphics), so Intel is keeping that the same. I would say intel naming scheme is really easy to understand but sounds really stupid
This is some of the worst thing in modern culture. if you are are rich and smart, you can go out and buy the best possible products and they just work together most of the time. If you are on a budget, you litterally have to make yourself less intelligent to get a deal.
This is so dumb for business, here's what's going to happen Most people will not be able to tell what they are buying anymore just looking at the pc with the highest CPU number So they will google "best laptop" and look for top 10 lists or review videos from tech channels And those those top lists and review videos always talk about the same laptop over and over, so most people are only gonna buy those ones Since people are only gonna buy those ones, all other manufacturers will sell a lot less laptops, and since they sell a lot less they buy a lot less CPU from Intel and AMD So in the end this will not only hurt the consumer, but also the laptop manufacturers and Intel and AMD themselves
So why is this happening you may be asking? It comes down to what business is as a phenomenon. At the end of the day every business only has two objectives. 1) To maximize profits. 2) To minimize costs. The bigger the business, the more ruthlessly they pursue these objectives. What drives the requirement for profit? Growth, because if there's not profit there's no growth. And because the monetary system requires growth to continue running, here we are. Not only that but because there is a requirement for growth, there must also be growth for that growth and growth for that growth of growth etc. That's where inflation comes from. It's the system.
Now decoding such corporate bullsh*t is full-time job. Even experienced sales person has hard time to swim out such jumble of cryptic names. Ordinary consumer can not comprehend such mess. They intentionally confuse the consumer so that they can profit from such confusion. Even tech-savvy consumer falls into such evil trap.
There is a reason why many of the components could be defined differently and their purpose is not only meant to be a slower device, yeah you are right there is just stupid marketing branding, but look at it at different perspective, Like literally Apple's M3/PRO/MAX right, there are only three of them, what if I want something in between m3 and pro slightly better and slightly more expensive. and honestly I really appreciate that we have different models, different purposes for the models, the only thing that could be adjusted is the easier component search up, for people that do not intend to invest their time in searching for hundred of combinations that could result in better performance or literally better in terms of cost.
Specs of Ryzen AI 390 aren't all that bad. With 40 CU, it's going to have the same FP16 performance as NVidia 4070, that is 30 TFlops. As far as FP32 is concerned, NVidia 4070 keeps the same 30 TFlops, Ryzen AI 390 is going to have only half of that. It's going to be interesting to see how these numbers (30Tflop FP16, 15TFlop FP32) are going to translate into real world performance.
Your average consumer should be using AI bot workflows so that they can be informed, these workflows can easily be shared and will get better with time.
Naming doesn't matter for the average person. They see bigger number better and more descriptors, Tis, XTs, and +s and get the gist of the products performance.
Naw bro. The future is full of humanity learning that we've never been along and life is much stranger than we've been told. It's bout to get real bro.
This reminds me of a situation 10 years ago when you were trying to choose an i5 powered laptop and saw 100's of cpu titles half of them are literally comparable to a desktop celeron and shouldn't be called i5.
Something that you forget to point out with the Apple M3 chips at 9:07 you can clearly see two M3 pro chips side by side with different core counts. Apple is just as bad if not worse than any other company when it comes to obfuscating performance tiers with their naming conventions. The m3 pro chips also have less memory bandwidth than the m2 pro and I believe the m1 pro as well. Sometimes information gets lost if the naming scheme is overly simplified.
I just bought a laptop. I've got 30 years of PC experience. It was a complete mess to decypher, research and figure out what CPU is currently worth buying. In the end I landed on get a zen 4 chip. Ditch everything else. So a 7x4x. Or 8x4x. The third number has to be 4. 8845hs, 7840hs etc. U for low wattage. Intel aren't great for laptops currently. Only the new Lunar Lake.
Its why people who arent tech savvy and just know it works would buy apple laptops because they know what they're getting. If they are getting the air version, they know they are getting the entry level of their laptops, if they're getting the pro version they know they're getting the high end tier of their laptops. The chip and spec configuration is easy to understand like what vex said, not necessarily mean they are valuable or apple doesnt do shady stuff but when it comes to naming their products they got it right mostly. It is also why they have a big global market share by brand shares in laptop statistics.
The reason many manufacturers stick to this naming scheme it's for marketing purposes Why have 3 products that can be easily scrolled by on amazon when u can have 20-30 products filling the entire page
Honestly most consumers don't care how it is naming, people care is it new released and just know bigger number = higher price = higher performance, that is, although it is not always truth but most people don't want to learn and they don't buy tech product frequently.
Thing is just like nanometer Shrinks, processor companies are running out of names as well so they resort to rebranding or reshuffling the words to make some sense or i say YOLO them names. This got me, 7800x 3d is 8core, 7840HS is 8 core, made sense, 7840HX 12 core. then 7840U 8core then they have 7845HX with 12 core. i am confused now. Also Apple plays with words, while amd, intel have to shove a word and number then symbol. its like making RNG password.
And this is why I don't look at names, I look at specs only. So I know what I'm buying based on specs. Applies to CPU, GPU, MB, RAM, fans and everything else.
You know what's the worst part? Meteor Lake with a better looking naming scheme has way worse perfomance than Raptor Lake mobile. I watched benchmarks and my 12th i7 K series chip is still faster than those laptop chips.
As user-friendly as Apple's naming scheme may be by stating the number of cores clearly, do people actually know how many they NEED? I am a nerd who has been building PCs since the early 1990s but I can't tell how demanding Mac software actually is. So the use of such core numbers is at best half as useful as it seems.
It sucks that when I buy a GPU I need to triple check everything including the V-ram type/ amount/ speed, bus width, two types of core counts, clock speeds, etc. and that's after comparing the "series" and looking into board partners, but still before looking into the cooling/ hardware side (heat sink design, fans, connections). I know people who RMA'd a GPU and got a slightly different card (better or worse) because even the manufacturer can't remember if it was the "X Gaming Super Slim" or the "X Gaming Super OC". It's just crazy 🤣
Few years ago I bought a motherboard for my new i5 9400f cpu which had an FCLGA1151 socket. But listen to this! The cpu needs the VERSION 2 of the same socket and it's NOT COMPATIBLE with the first version. Both sockets have the SAME NAME! FCLGA1151 vs FCLGA1151 v2. Marketing people at Intel are geniuses too!
Needs regulation there so much anti competitive behaviour , price fixing, stock/supply manipulation it unbelievable- what any regulatory authorities are doing I don’t know take money to look the other way it seems - be smart and informed people 😮

Its why people who arent tech savvy and just know it works would buy apple laptops because they know what they're getting. If they are getting the air version, they know they are getting the entry level of their laptops, if they're getting the pro version they know they're getting the high end tier of their laptops. The chip and spec configuration is easy to understand like what vex said, not necessarily mean they are valuable or apple doesnt do shady stuff but when it comes to naming their products they got it right mostly. It is also why they have a big global market share by brand shares in laptop statistics.
The reason many manufacturers stick to this naming scheme it's for marketing purposes
Why have 3 products that can be easily scrolled by on amazon when u can have 20-30 products filling the entire page
Honestly most consumers don't care how it is naming, people care is it new released and just know bigger number = higher price = higher performance, that is, although it is not always truth but most people don't want to learn and they don't buy tech product frequently.
we are here, BECAUSE IT WORKS.
Thing is just like nanometer Shrinks, processor companies are running out of names as well so they resort to rebranding or reshuffling the words to make some sense or i say YOLO them names.
This got me, 7800x 3d is 8core, 7840HS is 8 core, made sense, 7840HX 12 core. then 7840U 8core then they have 7845HX with 12 core. i am confused now.
Also Apple plays with words, while amd, intel have to shove a word and number then symbol. its like making RNG password.
And this is why I don't look at names, I look at specs only. So I know what I'm buying based on specs. Applies to CPU, GPU, MB, RAM, fans and everything else.
just search what node it was manufactured...if it's not the latest semiconductor tech, it's probably a rehash.
Ok but to be fair, AX in motherboard name stands for intel AX wifi/bt card baked in...
You know what's the worst part?
Meteor Lake with a better looking naming scheme has way worse perfomance than Raptor Lake mobile.
I watched benchmarks and my 12th i7 K series chip is still faster than those laptop chips.
It's crazy that Ryzen also followed Intel's lead with these confusing naming schemes for their mobile CPUs.
As user-friendly as Apple's naming scheme may be by stating the number of cores clearly, do people actually know how many they NEED? I am a nerd who has been building PCs since the early 1990s but I can't tell how demanding Mac software actually is. So the use of such core numbers is at best half as useful as it seems.
With dante from the devil may cry series
we finally got Ryzen Ultra Extreme OC AI Sigma 6900X3D XTX
The names are that way because they're selling these to manufacturers / companies first, consumers second.
Apple can afford to be honest in their naming scheme but AMD cannot.
they literally released the HX 375 as an HP omnibook exclusive and that comes with a 60hz screen
They are actually good chips so far especially for mini pc!!!
Apple naming scheme + AI + Intel naming scheme. Who though this is a genius idea like wtf
We may see AMD transform into the Apple of PC CPUs before Nvidia transforms into the Apple of GPU
@@rinsenpai135Actually I agree
It sucks that when I buy a GPU I need to triple check everything including the V-ram type/ amount/ speed, bus width, two types of core counts, clock speeds, etc. and that's after comparing the "series" and looking into board partners, but still before looking into the cooling/ hardware side (heat sink design, fans, connections).
I know people who RMA'd a GPU and got a slightly different card (better or worse) because even the manufacturer can't remember if it was the "X Gaming Super Slim" or the "X Gaming Super OC". It's just crazy 🤣
Hey Vex whats your thoughts on rainworld?
the 4070 ti super is STILL the best straight up bang for buck
Maybe we'll have ryzen Ultime Deluxe Gold and director's cut edition, who knows?
Few years ago I bought a motherboard for my new i5 9400f cpu which had an FCLGA1151 socket. But listen to this! The cpu needs the VERSION 2 of the same socket and it's NOT COMPATIBLE with the first version. Both sockets have the SAME NAME! FCLGA1151 vs FCLGA1151 v2. Marketing people at Intel are geniuses too!
I think they should rediscover the term MEGA and probably paint it cheap silver colour shade of old hi-fi's, (even though it is silver already).
Needs regulation there so much anti competitive behaviour , price fixing, stock/supply manipulation it unbelievable- what any regulatory authorities are doing I don’t know take money to look the other way it seems - be smart and informed people 😮
