description for more details what's up guys I am in Sonoma California I've been invited here by AMD for a special event that they're having in the pavilion right behind me lots of people are gathered but I'm actually the only youtuber here so you're getting some exclusive content exclusive footage that you can't find anywhere else on the internet except potentially from all the journalists we're back they were also covering this event but anyway AMD has promised some massive reveals there's gonna be some stuff that I can share with you guys right now and there's gonna be more stuff coming let's say in the next few weeks so let's get started what are they talking about I don't know well if you watched my video yesterday you know they talked about radeon instinct with just a taste of the new Vega GPU family today we're talking about Zen though and those rumors you've heard are true the eight core 16 threads n based CPU AMD has been teasing for months will now be called Rison not a bad name I suppose I will nickname it mellow bread beyond the name did they confirm a launch date no they're still just listing ballparks unfortunately with desktop summit ridge chips coming in q1 2017 server Naples chips coming in q2 and notebook chips codenamed Raven Ridge ap use from our understanding in the second half of next year no price updates either sorry we do have juicy specs though like a pleasingly ample 20 megabytes l2 and l3 cache and a solid base frequency listed at 3.4 gigahertz before turbo the am 4 platform meanwhile has confirmed support for USB 3.1 gen2 nvme and i guess sure SATA Express 2 but no one really cares about that inside Rison though there is a group of technologies which AMD calls sense mi the mi stands for machine intelligence these are pure power precision boost extended frequency range neural net prediction and smart prefetch pure power is dynamic power management it monitors temperatures speed and voltage and as millivolts and milliwatts accurate and if you're wondering what Infinity fabric is I found that just picturing Harry Potter's invisibility cloak somehow helped pure power works in tandem with precision boost and precision boost is aimed take on devfs dynamic voltage and frequency scaling Intel's turbo boost is also devfs precision boost handles on-the-fly CPU clock adjustment without halts or queue drains and features precision tuning with 25 megahertz increments extended frequency range if it works as described here is absolutely bananas it's listed as an enthusiast feature and seems to indicate that if you turn it on and say upgrade your cooling solution and give your CPU lower temperatures the CPU will just overclock itself to eat up the temperature Headroom and it's fully automated I think I just pooped my pants neural net prediction though describes how these CPUs slowly learn how to be more human by watching us and learning our deepest secrets and desires I might be inferring this and fill a little bit but smart prediction does mean there's a true artificial network inside each Zenzi Peas n CPU which builds a model of decisions based on past software code execution to predict future behavior and yes they used the word scary on this slide and I don't think it was a mistake finally we have smart prefetch free fetch itself is nothing new but AMD has improved upon it and made it smarter for Zen meaning our CPU will anticipate the location of future data accesses by application code while learning algorithms model and learn to improve its effectiveness all of these things are cool but I think what you guys will find most interesting is a couple side-by-side live benchmark tests that they ran for us in both cases they compared a rise in CPU at 3.4 gigahertz without turbo enabled versus a stock 6900 cake with turbo enabled both CPUs have 8 cores and 16 threads the first demo was a handbrake in code that took about 60 seconds and what was difficult for me to record both of the screens at once I can confirm that the rise in CPU won the race by several seconds that's quite impressive the second demo involved blender rendering on all eight cores and sixteen threads on both systems and both CPUs completed it in about the same time while also showing that both the idle system power and the load system power was about 15 watts less on the Rison system I can say without a doubt that if Rison continues to perform at this level and efficiency when it's finally independently tested across a range of applications we're gonna see huge shake-up in the consumer CPU market so consider yourselves further teased but also consider this the eight core Intel Core i7 59 60 X debuted August 29th 2014 and still costs over $1000 two years later and while reisen's q1 launch could mean the beginning of January or the end of March I say the sooner the better because I don't know about you guys but I am totally ready for at least a slightly more affordable eight core CPU with present-day IPC performance that's all for this video though guys thanks for watching hit the like button comment down there subscribe and check out the description for links to my store as well as further
