I switched to AMD largely for better battery performance, but this mades me feel like I dodged a bullet.

Amd 5700u and fx8150 still going strong

My 7800x3d is incredible, I won’t be going back to Intel any time soon.

So glad I went full AMD for my latest build.

I’m still staying with my 5950X. So many cores!

SuperIce ,

Not sure how much longer I’ll be using the 5950x tbh. We’ve reached a point where the mobile processors have faster multicore (for the AI 370) than the 5950X without gulping down boatloads of power.

Also on the 7800X3D. I think I switched at just the right time. I've been on Intel since the Athlon XP. The next buy would have been 13/14th gen.

Also glad to picked the AMD version when ordering a new laptop yesterday.

7800X3D is so damn good, it also outperforms the newer Zen5 processors 💀

For CPUs nothing beats AMD

Honestly even with gpus now too. I was forced to team green for a few years because they were so far behind. Now though, unless you absolutely need a 4090 for some reason, you can get basically the same performance from and, for 70% of the cost

I haven’t really been paying much attention to the latest GPU news, but can AMD cards do ray tracing and dlss and all that jazz that comes with RTX cards?

natebluehooves ,

DLSS is off the table, but you CAN raytrace. That being said I do not see the value of RT myself. It has the greatest performance impact of any graphical setting and often looks only marginally better than baked in lighting.

Yes, but by different names. They use FSR that’s basically the same thing, I haven’t noticed a difference in quality. Ray tracing too, just not branded as RTX

For years, Intel’s compiler, math library MKL and their profiler, VTune, really only worked well with their own CPUs. There was in fact code that decreased performance if it detected a non-Intel CPU in place:

www.agner.org/optimize/blog/read.php?i=49&v=f

That later became part of a larger lawsuit, but since Intel is not discriminating against AMD directly, but rather against all other non-Intel CPUs, the result of the lawsuit was underwhelming. In fact, it’s still a problem today:

medium.com/…/fixing-intel-compilers-unfair-cpu-di…

Given that the MKL is a widely used library, people also indirectly suffer from this if they buy an AMD CPU and utilize software that links against that library.

As someone working in low-level optimization, that was/is a shitty situation. I still bought an AMD CPU after the latest fiasco a couple of weeks ago.

Intel has not halted sales or clawed back any inventory. It will not do a recall, period. The company is not currently commenting on whether or how it might extend its warranty.
