A Response to the Hate and Garbage Surrounding RYZEN

2017-03-05
okay so this needs to be said I don't make videos in regard to garbage that floats around online we all know it's inevitable you can't escape it read any youtube comment section any forum for that matter and you're bound to find accusations that are so baseless they make you laugh and cringe at the same time and that is no more true than with AMD rice and these three CDs have been so misunderstood by so many people that mislabel they've been the basis of arguments fights even threats death threats that I've decided to stay out of that game altogether I will not be reviewing the three rising CPUs in regard to gaming performance just because I don't want the same crap being thrown my way granted this video itself will probably draw a lot of that but at least I'm saying something in regard to you it's a rebuttal to all of the the mess that so many tech tubers in particular get when it comes to reviews like these what sparked this video with the insane backlash that I personally saw from gamers nexuses review of the risin line up next this is next hi what's the plural of Nexus anyway they came to conclusions that did not favor a particular fanbase I thought that they were well grounded I thought they were based on fact and justified but we all know at this point any kind of opinion that doesn't follow the opinion of the majority of viewers watching your video is a big no-no I find it ridiculous that our opinions and our suggestions are being questioned to this extent and being ridiculed the way that they are based on our extensive tests of these products and keep in mind we're testing these products way more than the average consumerism the average consumer typically doesn't care to compare because they have the new product that's really all they're they're worried about but we test these things for a living we compare them for a living and when our conclusions based on data are in conflict with what a fan or just a typical viewer might think we are called out were ridiculed were threatened in the same way that gamers Nexus was repeatedly apparently which is just pathetic in my opinion that shouldn't happen we shouldn't be in a community like that that's so hostile that were afraid to upload benchmarks because we know what we'll get in return so what's happening is a select few people from both sides of the aisle from those who favor Intel for X reasons and those who favor AMD for y reasons are becoming radicalized in the sense think of it politically those who disagree the most politically tend to have the most extreme arguments right when when they just can't see eye to eye on anything those are typically the most vicious of the arguments that we see and it's this polarization that's making our community as a whole appear so hostile in fact it is hostile in many cases just use this comment section as an example oh but it doesn't just stop there surprise surprise there's quite a bit of infighting particularly within AMD's sphere I think largely in part because the CPUs themselves that are already released are being misunderstood many of my fellow tech reviewers have already compared the 1,800 X to the 67 7700 K to the 69 hundred K so they're using either price or core account as a basis for comparison that's completely fine I think it's 100 percent legitimate I'm glad they did it but the problem is people are taking these results without a grain of salt they're not considering the actual intent behind the 1,700 1,700 X and 1,800 X you don't buy 8 core 16 thread CPU strictly for gaming period and I don't know why that's news to everyone now because we've all at some point reviewed this topic and actually gone back and reviewed it multiple times just to emphasize the point why people are saying Oh Intel still superior Rison flopped is beyond me the CPUs are more content creation oriented actually aim towards people more like myself who do more video editing and rendering than anything else that is not to say though that these are not good for gaming that's another thing that I found that the community that's not really stacking up is people are saying oh these chips are bad for gaming don't buy them even though you can buy the 1,700 for a little over 300 bucks you know that's that's around the same price as a 7700 K you should still definitely by the 7700 K because it's way more worth in the long run for gaming ok well the higher IPC of the 7700 K is what justifies it for a gaming CPU but if that's all you're going to be doing find that that that's where you can stop if you're going to be doing more than that if it can be live streaming if you're going to be running I don't know multiple games at the same time rank machines if you're going to be content creating in any in any way whatsoever then the 1700 has a place in the market and that's why these chips I believe will still be very successful I do think that the bit of over hype on AMD side kind of hurt the momentum of these chips had that happens with every product literally from every category in existence though so that's nothing new but I'm also seeing some ridiculous accusations particularly from the AMD sphere and I'm calling you guys out on this because this is something that I guess you guys have had just bobble up inside of you for five or six years since the bulldozer architecture and you're just ready to let it go and now that you're saying that these three chips which don't need to comprise half of the Zen lineup don't perform as well as Intel's best then you somehow feel justified to to make these false claims and they are false because I could never imagine a company like gamers Nexus being paid off by Intel to skew the results or skew their conclusions based on objective data I could not believe what I saw when scrolling through Twitter are you telling me that you literally need verbal confirmation from YouTube channels that they were not paid off or persuaded in any way by Intel if you're considering asking me that question right now unsubscribe and block me I frankly had enough of the garbage surrounding this issue this launch and I haven't even released benchmarks yet I know that a majority of you do not feel this way I'm glad because if you did I would not be doing this I would be looking forward to my engineering career when I graduate in May but it's people like this who make our jobs occasionally suck are you kidding me is this really something that we should have to go through as tech reviewers I could care less who comes out on top in fact that in itself is subjective do you prefer CPUs that aren't as powerful but that are much better for your budget or you prefer the biggest and best for a premium price that's how it's been for quite a while and I don't expect that to change anytime soon so the next time you think about accusing my channel of being biased or being paid off do me a favor and unsubscribe for now I will be withhold my AMD rising benchmarks not just the gaming benchmarks but also the CP synthetic and rendering benchmarks which is news to my followers on Twitter the community is too disgusting right now and I'm disgusted with it while conflict and controversy surrounding the optimization of Rison with operating systems and motherboard viruses is largely in part thanks to AMD not giving these developers and manufacturers enough time to refine their products for consumers I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait at least a few months until these issues are resolved then we will see which of these CPUs is best for rendering and content creation and which of these from both sides of the aisle mind you are our best for gaming with that best of luck out there if I were you I would tread lightly in comment section and on forums it's sad that I have to say that this is Salazar's studio thanks for learning with us
