2 years later, and stream-capable 6-core Ryzen 5 1600 can be had for $79.99. Good times!
Link to 80 dollar version?
Im tryna save some cash when buying parts.
xxxdumpsterbabyxxx that was back then when prices weren’t that inflated
a couple years back
So i overpayed?
I’m going to pair that with RX 560
Thank god some competition for Intel.
ArkonBlade Now they need to make competition for Nvidia's 1080ti and titan lineup!
Yeah I'm hoping.
now intel is going to push again and break old boundaries to leap years ahead with what ever they've been working on and not telling us.
To say that mobile devices is where the future is and desktops are dead is where Intel would be wrong to their eventual demise.
Dark Alchemist it's not true, don't worry about it. Amd said the same thing in 2013 also intel would never cut out of the pc gamig processors because they sell the most, up nearly 13% from 2015-16
almost 4 years and damn how far ryzen has come, from a good price alternative to intel to a performance/price complete champion
The intro for this video was hilarious. Bravo.
appa jip jip
Barry what the hell did you do?!
Same as Radon
Back to the future moment
Why am I watching this? I can't even afford a 2gb ram damn
Jm Rodriguez i feel your pain
you dont have to buy it by your own, just ask your parent to buy it as your birthday present. I'm sure they'll do, cause they're love you so . . . .
same :( windows 10 is more expansive then my pc :(
Wow, even an indian ( the asian Indian, not the american indian ) is richer than a mexican. Thats why they always want to cross those borders i guess.
Jm Rodriguez Youll love Chinese sellers
That intro is amazing.
Sean Wieder correct
Dat pink Lambo though...
The cringe is strong tho.
Im not "into" it
I'll show myself out
3 years later Ryzen 5 generation is steal a beast. Good job AMD
A320? As a massive aviation enthusiast, that caught my eye.
Me, too - I think a fellow enthusiast at AMD was involved in naming that chipset.
too bad its the shittiest version of them all (no oc, boo...)
As a future airline pilot, me too.
Team Boeing > Team Airbus
Nah not the neo, too loud for flight simulator x (just kidding, i love a320)
That intro though. I bet Future Linus dropped the time machine.
Or stole it.
The Great Coleslaw. both ?
tsnakem i wnted to commnt so i coment i woke up frm sleep
The Great Coleslaw HAHAHAHAHAH
it was not Doc Brown, but another time traveller, that stole his own time machine
he was reviewing it but went back in time n then decided not to review it causing a paradox melting the real linus replacing him with a holographic thing
Holy shit! 58C with overclock with the stock cooler...
maybe Kós Péter live at sub sahara african region. Where 40'C at midnight is considered very cool ...
With an overclock, yes that is pretty darn low.
What CPUs, exactly?
WHERE DID BEAKER GO?
on stock cooling my intel 3770k could hit 70C sometimes even without an overclock.
So my old Phenom II 965 will soon be replaced with a 1600X ... 7 Years old, ill miss him :(
Danny Brandon you won't regret getting any form of upgrade xd
I have Phenom 2 but I think I won't miss it, just put it in a ryzen box so he will feel better ;D
I replaced a a10 5800k and it was like *insert mind blown gif*
I thougt the same.
I ordered a beQuit pure rock cooler with it (+30€) and overclocked the r5 1600 to 3,8Ghz (3,79 because the multiplier is 99 not 100).
3,9 runns through all benchmarks too and stands a 2hr stress test but bf1 crashes all the time so i got back to 3,8.
Maximum temperature 64°C with silend fan curve
I also have 965, black edition. Seriously looking into Ryzen 5 right now. Even though I just finished NieR and Prey on my good old 965...

I am an intel guy, i have to say Ryzen from a price/performance point of view is really a kick in the balls, it fucking hurts. Congrats to AMD though very impressive work i am looking forward to VEGA!
Martin Daskalov thank fucking God. Finally an Intel person who isn't fanboying about how Intel cpus get 5 more fps but don't include the fact they cost 500$ more
Blades Asura Intel guy here - I might experiment around a bit with Ryzen in the near future :D
Martin Daskalov Vega...LOL
+Blades what are you smoking? Intel's i5 CPUs cost hundreds less than Ryzen CPUs that perform worse in games. Intel is still the best for gaming.
Like everyone that owns an Intel CPUs shit talks AMD cpus all the time.
it's been a looooooooong time since Intel has some competition with its cpu! maybe it's time for you to cut your prices down huh intel
Mark Pearce I overclocked my i7 5820 on air and get the same thermals as these Ryzen chips in apples to apples tests. If you actually believe water is needed for Intel CPUs in terms of overclocking, you're misinformed.
Nope. People who are serious about their machine are going to buy the best option, which is intel. Just look at the buy rate for k-sku CPU's that never get overclocked. AMD may give you more performance for the money, but it's still 2nd best. Intel own 90% of the market. This isn't competition.
Also, mark, Intel needs an aftermarket cooler? No shit. IT DOESN'T SHIP WITH A COOLER. The only reason it would need liquid cooling is if your CASE is absolute junk and has terrible airflow pathing.
Skylar Garrett it's just starting and u know that, just wait Ryzen will get at least 40% of the CPU market in the next 2 years :D and i5s will be obsolete for mid end gaming.
Skylar Garrett it's not even a year since amd released their ryzen lineup of course the stock will still lean on Intel. the stock market doesn't work like that dude
I, for one, welcome our new AMD overlords.
Bop
All hail AMD!
Looks like Ryzen is better outside of gaming for applications that use more cores, and not too shabby inside of gaming, although the frame rate loss in Deus Ex, Tomb raider, and GTA V would be very noticeable.
Ironically it looks like for business end applications Ryzen will be the king. What a strange state of events
"the frame rate loss in Deus Ex, Tomb raider, and GTA V would be very noticeable. "
its really not. stutter is much worse on intel
+XaviarCraig Like hell it would be. You seem to have forgotten about Xeon.
Keep in mind this is when paired with a 1080ti. I think most people buying $170-$250 CPUs will probably be pairing them with something like an RX 4/580 or a 1060, which will both lead to GPU limited scenarios in most games. Only the most CPU reliant games will show any difference in FPS. With that said, it's probably a better value to go Ryzen overall since gaming performance is generally on par and performance in workstation and other multitasking/multithreaded workloads is much better than, say, an i5.
KaL hmmm?
KaL they are over 500 bucks, good observation and gold star for you but people that buy xeons dont care about price to performance, they care about performance. Glad ryzen is able to give peasants like you a purpose. Have a nice day
Did anyone else notice linus' unusually Orange hands?

Where is the RGB ?
M Lo stock cooler is rgb
But not the CPU
Only the Ryzen 7 CPU's get the RGB cooler
not for r5 1600
adamuscze the wraith max also features RGB if I am not mistaken
When it's time for my 4700k to be replaced I'll be switching back to AMD! I've always loved the underdog and now that they're back in the ring I'll be supporting them.
Gilitar sameee
Same. Cant wait to get rid of

Did you upgrade yet!?

One day
YEETABYTE
How the hell did you write that typo
Did you mean petabyte? Or Yottabyte?
Well that won't happen
When even Linus is confused at the intro xD
I'm seriously regretting the fact that I just bought an i5 7600k 2 weeks ago. why did I doubt AMD.
i'm just a gamer and 7600k lost only in 1 game by around 1 fps less and it's cheaper than 1600x(in some countries even by $30-40). bought 7600k
The only reason you should regret it is if you wanted to support AMD over Intel based on principle. I just bought the 1600x for that, actually.
Because that piece of S**t CEO pushed Bulldozer down our throats when a redesign of Thuban would have crushed C2D/C2Q with a true 6 core part with higher IPC.
Before Bulldozer AMD had better CPU's than Intel.
sell and buy... while price of 7600k is still high. its going to drop soon
Aoukoa kuroe!
I have i7 6800x, but in 2018 change to AMD
Let's be real, it will probably be a waste of money to upgrade. The 2018 AMD is most likely not going to blow the i7 6800X away. I still use my i7 4770k from a few years ago and it is still offers great performance. You can honestly stick with 6800X for a few more years.
Exactly Ryzen is just a 3rd-4th gen intel chip(IPC) with more cores on a new ddr4 platform and cheaper .
nope, Ryzen is 5th Intel IPC
still the same level as 1600X
Francisco Shibata you feeling sick yet?
I have been and I am still an Intel customer but i would seriously love if AMD gives Intel a though competition and forces them to reduce their pricing cos damn those i7s are expensive af
yes, very expensive! You can buy a whole computer for that price in some cases. Everytime we have to upgrade motherboard as well. Just stupid
ademar9988, it's perfectly reasonable. I also use Intel but am glad to see Ryzen succeeding because it forces Intel to provide better chips at lower prices to stay competitive.
ademar9988 You completely missed the point....
idiot sir?
What say you now?
looks like I'ma get a 1500X, 16gb ram, A320 or B350 board, a 120gb ssd, 1tb hdd, and an asus STRIX rx580 (if it comes out before Black Friday). I'll probably put it in a Corsair 100d
if you can get a 250gb ssd i rly recommend it. 120 even if you use it carefully will get full easily
don't get a 4 core processor in 2017, it's all about 6 and 8 cores
Take a B350, A320 is for extreme budget build only. If you're planning on taking 16 Gb of RAM and a 580, you are not on an extreme budget.
Majestic Beardsman my 1500x does great! my a-10 5800k I had since release crapped out, so I just went ahead and got CPU/Mobo/ram and Hyper 212 Evo AM4 bracket! 😂
Majestic Beardsman I went with a set of Kingston hyper x 2400 (2x8gb) for this build on Asus b350 mAtx.
AMD is killing it now. Intel has to reduce prices or else they'll only be selling to server owners.
Asean12 AMD is going to kick their ass there soon too with Naples
Its not enough to make the reduce prices. I dont see anything happening. But all eyes on intel now
Asean12 Really for gaming the i5 7600 destroyed every amd cpu.
Asean12 Intel has so much money and R&D that they could sit on their asses for years and still come back with a CPU to bury AMD. If AMD sat on their asses for 7 years getting wrecked by Intel, could certainly do it as well. Not saying that they will, but all these "RIP Intel" comments are very delusional lol.
Asean12 and not for long, zen has plans for a 32 core cpu
Back in the day where GPU prices were not inflated
0:29 look at the top left corner of the grandfather clock. you can see the frame getting moved
Haha, you win my morning that intro gave me a great laugh. Great work lads! 😄
I will not trade productivity for 5% extra fps, I prefer to have the better preformance overall, I'm going with the new Ryzen 2700x
Nice.
watching this on Ryzen ;D
Wut how?

He has a PC and the processor is a Ryzen

@@c4keizerg354 you buy it and use it
The Ryzen 5 1600 was such a great CPU. With Overclocking you could get just about the same performance as the 1600x. I had one stable at 3.925ghz from 2016-2021 until I got a new rig with 5900x. Those really were the glory days of overclocking.
I'm thinking the Ryzen 5 1600x would be a good upgrade for my 6 year old 2600k. With having the newer AM4 B350 chipset tech: M.2, ddr4 3200mhz ram, (currently running 1600mhz) Pci express 3, And 6 cores 12 threads of processing power. Just over 400 bucks for cpu, motherboard, And ram? (sweet!) :)
GPU?
Currently have an Asus strix 1060 6g oc.
Obie327 You wouldnt see any real GPU bottlenecking with a 1060 so Ryzen would be pretty awesome for the multi threading performance :D
Be wary though, it's an early platform and you'll likely have a hiccup or two. Intel X99 was even worse than Ryzen was on launch so keep that in mind
I've upgraded the shit out of this rig over the years. Limited by old chipset issues basically.
Yeah I know, (beta tester at this point) My Sandy is holding up very well (overclocked to 4.2 ghz) 850 EVO Samsung SSD, (Boot). 16 gigs of ram. Mostly want to use M.2 for boot, DDR4 3200 Memory, Pci-E 3, etc.. I figured when I save up the money for this Ryzen build (X1600) Most of the bugs will be ironed out. I don't want another 4 core 8 thread system moving forward. X99 is too cost prohibited for me. A good B350 chipset and a single "Great" GPU going forward. Eventually I also want higher resolution monitor 1440p or higher. I'm definitely weighing these interesting options.
finally AMD's Ryzen 5 so the price for fx 8370 can go down so that I can buy the fx 6350 :D
Justin Fenix wait for ryzen 3
Ryzen 3.
Do not buy an FX series processor. Even a Pentium G, i3, or R3 are much better options and up to date with newer tech.
Todd Simone Dammit I bought a 6300 a month ago
lol
I have the B350 Tomahawk for my 1700. The 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 release and the 1.3 beta BIOSes were all a little mediocre, with the biggest changes coming in 1.1 from 1.0. But the 1.3 release? This is the Ryzen 5 support release, and with the microcode updates that have been included with it, I can finally get normal-ish POST times. Not only that, but I've noticed across the board that everything seems faster, and more stable overall, even in the OS. Overclocking has also been patched up, and voltages are now being supplied to the processor prpperly, leading to much more stable overclocking -albeit with somewhat higher tempuratures- and I'm genuinely far more pleased with my purchase now than I was when I bought the set, which is saying a lot considering how pleased I was when I got it.
may 28th 29/2020. Just bought a cyberpower pc with the ryzen 5 2600. Pc is used, only 4 months. I am sure I will love it.
Freaking love that intro!
Freaking love Ashens!
An excellent reply.
Moral of the story: Get the 1600, overclock it. Then praise the money you just saved because you wanted an i7, and spend it on a good gpu. Next step, forget that 1080p shit monitor, get 1440p or 4k and just game at that damn holy beautiful 60 fps. Who cares if you get 10% less frames at 1080p when it's above 150 fps?
LeMancave Overclocking also reduces CPU lifetime. :(
albeit so little. I've run overclocked cpu for years! Of course not heavy overclocks but still... but I get your point!
I admit 1440p is the best improvement you can do, but there is a massive difference between gaming at 60fps and gaming at 144fps with Freesynch/Gsynch
Remember when console gamers used to say the human eye can't see above 30fps? That's what you sound like saying 60fps is all you need. If you ever used a synch monitor @ 144 you'd wince going back to 60fps.
That's the main reason I don't want to move to 144Hz. I'm scared that games I can't run at 144fps will be unplayable once I get used to the smoothness.
And if you played on 4k 40" TV instead of 1440p that you paid more $$$ for youd think twice about going to 1440p ;-)
7:03 I thought he was going into that usual advertisement lol
I did an Ryzen 5 1400 build a while ago, I was able to get an equivilent cinebench r15 score (MT: 708 ST:137) to the 1500X with an OC to 3.6GHz. You can OC with the stock 65W fan, and that modest OC didn't go higher than 70 C.
It seems you need to bump the core voltage by atleast 0.025V to be stable though.
I couldn't get OC profiles working through the Master Utility GUI thing, but it was a super easy overclock.
When I compare it to my Skylake i5 build, I would much rather get Ryzen, with the slightly better price point.
If you are going for a Ryzen 5 1500X, and isn't avalible (like at MSY Australia) a 1400 is a great alternative.
Nice idea Linus Back to the future sarcastic intro :-) :-) :-) :-) :-P
Quick question. With motherboard, prices included, what would be a better option... a Ryzen 5 1600X or an Intel 7700 (not K). I would plan to do some fairly light 1080p gaming, video recording and editing, and just a computer that can last for a long time. Thanks for your opinions!
Speedy Guy Go with Ryzen, because the higher the core count, the lower the performance impact with you are recording (the famous "fps drops)
Ryzen is cheaper and has better performance
mecrom you mean in productivity? because in gaming intel is way better
Mecrom It’s the same price in Australia
Piaca pkj Not even remotely accurate. He said 1080p gaming. Pull out your sources or gtfo.
Thank you for that last little bit of information, it is exactly the answer I was looking for when I continued to ask myself on everything I read. How well does it stack up as a whole.
awesome guys. love the begining bit. thanks for all your hard work linus and friends
Back in the phenom and athlon 2 days, these processors would be able to core unlock and add extra performance, is this currently possible
This was true with Intel's CPUs and no, they started to disable the cores physically using lasers.
Pink car.
Hey Linus, have you heard about Pink Guy?
Mathis Don't bring that shitty filthy Frank shit around here.
Shitty?
I've been planning my first PC build for a while. I was planning on getting an Intel i5 7600k, but I wanted more threads because I plan on doing editing and rendering. I have to say, I'm totally sold on the Ryzen 5 1600x. I never planned on doing any crazy overclocking, so I think this chip will be perfect for my level of use. Never thought I would go AMD, but I'm pretty happy about it.
Hey Linus tech Tips!
I have been watching your videos since the NCIX days when i was rebuilding an old rig i had!
Now i have been upgrading more and more my current PC thanks to the awesome videos and reviews you guys make ( i got my strix rx470 gpu from your what video card to buy video from 5 months ago) and now i am excited to upgrade my old CPU and mobo taking into account all your tips and reviews!!
All i can say is thanks! thanks! thanks! for teaching me the how and why in the PC world!!!!
Please continue making more videos because i will continue watching them.
Also please more video editing stuff!!
My Intel Celeron is a decacore with 64tb of L3 cache
Intel loyalist still be like "My delidded and warranty voided 7700k @ 5GHz beats Ryzen by 5 fps whilst costing $100 more haha AMD failed"
jackspencer213 7700k is still the king of gaming performance, but it also costs $100 more.
Just like how the 1080 was the performance king for a while, but the 1070 was a much better option because it was half the price.
jackspencer213 that's all with my 7700k delidded I get 5.3ghz
You don't need to delid a 7700k to run @ 5GHz
7700K's are a 300 dollar chip (cheaper with rebates) that do not require delidding.That is the most absurd nonsense I have ever heard. Not 400 dollar chips. And the best part about the 7700K's is, they out perform 400 and 500 dollar Ryzen chips in single core applications, and outperform 200 and 300 dollar ryzen chips in multi core applications. The 7700K is at this point the most well rounded chip on the market. Dare I say, it's perfect. Every series Ryzen has an area it seems to do very poorly in. That cannot be said about the 7700K. When you look at the tasks people actually execute compared to the tasks they claim to execute, things become weird. People seem to claim to render videos in handbrake all day, when in reality, they're playing counter strike and watching porn all day. The vast majority of the viewers on these channels thought Ryzen was a gaming chip. Not because they were told this, but because that's what they wanted. And that's not what they got..... After being fed a bunch of successful benchmarks by AMD, consumers became extremely frustrated with the poor performance they saw. One of the editors over at PC world was getting better gaming performance from a 5 year old i5 than he was his brand new 7 series Ryzen. This is because people don't generally run benchmarks all day. These synthetic benchmarks are garbage and don't account for real world activity. If all you're going to do is render videos, and run synthetics all day, you'll be more than happy with your 7 series Ryzen. If you're doing, literally, anything else with a computer, I wouldn't go near them because they're pricey and the 5 series Ryzens are lacking in areas equally priced Intel chips just aren't. If it's only about price to performance for you guys, you should be buying Intel now. A 200 dollar Intel chip will game better than everything Ryzen has to offer, and will do just fine for other tasks. Like a 6600K for instance.
Why are there loyalists for this
Having seen what 3rd gen ryzen does, interesting to look back at where it started
I love the Back to the Future reference at the beginning. So freaking awesome.
Well I know that AMD Ryzen will be in my next gaming rig for sure.
Great work on the editing for this video! Acting not so much but I'd give it an "A" for effort !
That production value on the intro tho...
Wow! That Back to the future part was awesome (y)
Hey guys, it will help if the chip in review can be shown in a different color in the graphs so we do not have to eye scan the chip names to see where it is and also if you can, pls slow down the graph transition time.
Great review, I wonder how popular will the Ryzen CPUs become!
The beginning with the nod to Back to The Future was amazing by the way, loved it!
im from the future, they became extremely popular
My name is Wraith Spire...
I'm a big FAN of AMD!

Being told today Ram price is going even higher 12 to 15 % and SSD's even more the new Intel and AMD CPU's will stay on the store shelf also Microsoft blocking updates for them in Windows 7 & 8.1 which makes it sad for all PC manufactures
It was English; prices went up on SSDs and RAM (related tech with alleged supply-side problems leading to inflated costs this year), and Microsoft announced that it gives less of a shit about non-10 versions of Windows and some updates won't be available for users of Win7 and Win8 with newer CPUs (e.g., Kaby Lake). Between that and the GPU pricing problems from mining, it's been an unfun year for people building computers.
Was free not is free.
Correction Microsoft is not merely "blocking" updates for Windows 7 & 8 it has already officially dropped support for them, good thing is you can now patch the crap out of them without Microsoft's inteference... XD
You are on point, memory prices are still going to go up...
@Brandon Hutsler you have it backwards, people aren't complaining that old hardware isn't getting supported with new software, it's that old software (win 7) isn't being given updates/compatibility for new hardware (CPUs). CPUs actually haven't gotten all that different since they were last supported for this to be hard to do, and this has been a comparatively short period of support for contemporary hardware. This is a transparent ploy from microsoft to force people away from their perfectly fine and even beloved windows 7 to the highly annoying data-mining operation that is windows 10
What concerns me, is the high voltages to run the Ryzen CPUs. I can't help but wonder about the long term reliability of the VRM and CPU.
Damn I just refreshed and 50 ryzen 5 videos showed up
Linus has got some fancy nails 7:40 looking fabulous
I had the R5 1400 previously and then I upgraded to the 1600x version and I saw a major performance increase and clock speeds on the stock cooler to 3.5ghz from 3.2 ghz was only getting like 8 degrees celcius hotter so not bad!
Anyone else notice that stock air cooler being screwed into the motherboard without using the standard X formation O.O
Im trying to build a pc on a budget. Is the ryzen 5 still good for 2019?
Yes i am currently doing a build on that platform of Ryzen and it is preforming very well!
Yes definitely
Yes it is
It's still good for 2020
@@Bruh-to1hy Hey uhh, i'm a bit late but is the ryzen 5 2600 Still good for gaming in 2020? Thanks.
I'm revamping my old PC, so I decided to buy the ryzen 5 1500X without hesitation, along with an MSI B350 board, which I have just found out is good for over locking, I already have an aftermarket cpu cooler. Also bought 16 gigs of DDR4 and a GTX 1050 TI. Let me know what you think
Nice setup.
Matt Rowe should have gotten a 1600
i own a 1600 on a gigabyte ab350 and a gtx 1050 with soon to be 16gb of 2666 mhz ddr4 ram and its a fantastic set-up.
Can you repeat the tests with an RX480 (maybe even crossfire) as well? Lots of other benchmarks are showing that there seems to be a driver issue with the Nvidia cards, AMD cards seem to deliver better performance (comparing GTX 1060 and RX 480). Noticeable if using an intel system + RX480 and Ryzen + RX480. AdoredTV did a benchmark where the RX480 in crossfire scored better than the GTX 1070.
Can you also try with 2600MHz and 3600MHz, Ryzen seems to gain a lot on higher memory clock speeds.
Love your videos man!!! I am getting ready to buy the 1600x. overclocking is something I am going to have to learn to do. not too familiar with it
RIP Intel. You're essentially getting an i7 for over $100 less.
why RIP, intel still have g4560 for 60 euro and the fastest cpu 7700k for those who want the best cores
no one use 2 core anymore
The latest Pentium is like the 6100 (i3) but a bit slower meaning it is a HYPER-THREADED DUAL CORE!
why your so sure?
I'm assuming your comment was towards Sam Jone...
So far it appears that for the price and what it can do, the 1600X is the true sweet spot of multi-core performance and price...this may be my next build...yes.
Can u make a overclock guide for the 1800x with the newest bios and other updates?
Ah yes, I remember when I got my 1600 on launch week. Have since upgraded to a 5600 but damn the OG lasted me around five years!
"We used our Crosshair Hero for consistency"
"and we retested ALL our Ryzen CPUs"
So.. you could have just used the B350 Tomahawk then...!?!
maybe it was the better board?
Sanctorum you missed the part about the RAM
Hey, hey from the future, core count and speed don't need to be all to important anymore since a glitch that occurred in some of AMD's now(in the future) called last-gen Ryzen. this glitch was first discovered in some 7nm chips, however, the early accidents didn't really went public but the thing the most had in common was that there where high voltage peaks involved after which the pc would be declared dead since its instructions wouldn't be controllable anymore or would be very unstable and glitching a lot. most of these(few) pc's where almost fully thrown away since it seemed to affect almost all the hardware in those pc's. when quite a few years later one of these pc's was powered on by someone who had kept the machine, it worked surprisingly enough, he claimed that after keeping the device on power it started after a few months. at first the experience was reported as quite normal however soon it seemed to have an actual intelligence and will the system was reported to ignore the os and directly respond to its surroundings, soon the os wouldn't be booted at all and the pc would create its own interfaces and was able to override its own limitations connecting to and directly altering the physical world. Soom after this some comparable examples started to apear until the government made them illegal(all ryzen not only from 7nm) and took action to destroy them. while most people didn't care because their AI powered cluster pc's are fast enough to do almost annything realtime, we do care for this organic response and the beyond viritual capabilitys those pc's hold, so we made places to keep them hidden and out of reach of the wrong people. so now I am here a little early waiting for the first 7nm and the last gen.
for those who wonder that pc from above is safe now.
oh shit wrong time.
I could hear a bit too much background echo in this video.
Rip large spaces
The edges on the clock in the background don't line up when doc Linus is on screen.
Time to get me a ryzen
Ata boy.
Yo Dojin same bro lol
I just upgraded to dual 2nd gen x58 based xeons... I'm happy with my 24mb of l3 cache and 24 threads for $60 ($30 per cpu)...
...even though my computer sounds like a jet engine
Rallenhayestime that doesnt do shit for gaming
Worth upgrading from a FX8320 to Ryzen 5?
Do you really have to ask?
If I wanted to stream should I choose the Ryzen 5 1600x or the i7 7700k?
These reviews always manage to be the most entertaining use of the scientific method anyone is using for PC parts.... hypothesis, test description, experiment, results, discussion, etc... and genuinely helpful graphics to boot. Great job as always LTT
Can't wait to see those prices on the i5 7600K drop
So AMD can lower the costs to the 1500X
#TeamRedFTW
Ryzen 5 1600 has better gaming than i5 7600k in 2019 LOL. That intel 4 core meme. I blame intel for fleecing their customers like that.
They kept core counts low, so their i7's would disproportionally outperform their i5 chips. Why? So they could sell more i7's than i5's.
FINALLY THE AMD HAS RYYYYZEN
Was the pun intended?
Yealoff. No shit
*intel fanboi*
-jknohate-
It has indeed ryzen....…........ from the garbage bin into the dumpster truck
Linus, maybe I missed it: what test bench are you using there? I'd like to get one. Thanks. Nice vid, btw.
I love the back to the future Reference thank you so much for that
Can you do an overclocking comparison between the two chipsets B350 and X370?
i dont think there is no different.. since one of them just doesnt have a sli/xfire
I would love too see how ryzen performes without 3200hz RAm... If it's 20% less performance, then fck AMD im going with intel
I'm thinking of Upgrading to a Ryzen 5 1600x from my 17-3770k, should i do it?
did you do the upgrade?
I'm having the same thoughts, but the 3770k was a monster and is still useful :D
0:00 Great Scott! do more video intros like that! lol, that was really good.
Cool back2thefuture doc impression
man i miss 2010 i remember getting intel i5 2500K and that was good fucking CPU
Well, still better than my i5 4210m
which ryzen 5 cpu should I match with an rx480 for a nice everyday machine? planning on doing some 2560x1080 gaming (don´t need 60 fps on ultra) and I need to run linux in a virtual box for programming (but that runs of basically anything). Would be nice if somebody could help :)
Kiwwizz i dont know in what country or world do you live but this setup with a ryzen 5 dont care whitch one and a 480 you are fully covered for years
if you're into programming i don't think you need help from us for choosing a cpu. this said i'd go for a cheap 5 or even 1700 overclocked. i just love having extra cores :)
Kiwwizz wait for rx 580
you´re right, I am probably capable of making a choice on my own, but I just wanted to hear some other people´s opinions :^)
thanks for the responses though!
i ordered a1600. have a 470
looks like a good bang for the buck
Just wanted to say the audio quality on your videos are perfect
LOL!!!! always know I can come and leave smiling after watching Linus's videos :p haha The intros or jokes in teh videos always crack me up
how did you get a Wraith max I would love to have one
would love to know how to get one too
Step 1: Be Linus
Step 2: See Step 1
Ruben Booker Wraith Max comes with the 1800x
3 years later and my ryzen 5 3600 wipes the floor with an i7 7700k
It would of took them more testing time but it would seem like a more balanced comparison if they included overclocked performance of the 7600k and the 7700k in the results
The intro bit was actually pretty funny, congrats! :)
is there any way to unlock the cores that are locked?
Dunno.
If it's soft-locked, then the hackers will inevitably come and make a modded microcode that will unlock them.
If they physically broke the connections to the cores, then no.
Chances are the cores are locked because it would make the chip unstable, theirs a reason they lock them. Alltho some people might get lucky and unlock them and never have an issue.
Get ryzen master and uncheck number of cores in msconfig/ boot/ advanced
Seeing that INTRO
Ryzen 5000 series makes sense
@LinusTechTips great review as allways, but tell me if you see this comment..The 1600x temps have the 20º offset or they are the real temps on the chart?
all x series have 20c offset
Given how low the temps are with the Noctua, ambient temperatures would have to be below 20C in order for the offset to make sense. They must have "offset the offset" to get the real temperatures here.
