okay you're wondering why the title of this video includes a with a MV section it's um because I'm being paid by MD that's not the case at all this videos not even sponsored it's because I plan on releasing a similar video sculpted around Intel in the near future just a little disclaimer there because well the comment section anyway so the red team's definitely been behind and it might not appear that way to the average consumer right Ryan's been putting a huge dent into Intel's grasp the consumer market prices are extremely competitive motherboards are cheap and we have mainstream eight core CPUs on both sides due in large part to AMD 7-series endeavors I'm talking about 1700 the 2700 those CPUs but elsewhere in the industry AMD still has quite the ground to make up and that's probably an understatement according to the register AMD server market share only recently touched 1% hasn't been anywhere close to that the past 5 or so years and tells goals to keep it below 10 percent much epic fully saturates so again AMD's got quite a ways to go and don't get me started on the graphics card side of things the Radeon division struggle to offer anything viable following in videos Pascal launched and I'm using that as a standard because Turing honestly out priced much of its potential audience Vegas 64 and 56 were overhyped undersupplied extremely expensive thanks to the mining craze and soon you can find one there much cheaper now but we still have nothing viable on the red team to solely compete with a 1080 TI ignoring Turing for now again which is overpriced in its own right by the way this isn't me harping on AMD that's not the point of this video I want healthy competition and AMD bring set to the doorsteps of both Intel and NVIDIA but the competition could still be better they aren't forcing either competitor to rapidly innovate again ignoring touring whose technology hasn't fully manifested and likely won't for several years that's a totally different topic I have videos on that subject and that's what AMD has been seeking to change a little bit of it was highlighted in today's event firstly AMD recapped it's epic advancements particularly its cloud computing and data center specialties hyping the world's first seven nanometer data center CPU epic now dubbed Rome with Rome architecture will bring advanced security features and a heavily boosted IPC figure fabrication will be handled by smc we already knew that and the architecture is expected to have a lower power draw overall thanks to much smaller transistors that consume significantly less power double core density and improve pipeline the list goes on the CPS actually incorporate multiple dyes per se all of which are tied together with an improved infinity fabric keep in mind that these are server CPUs though that we're talking about this is our first foot indoor if you will though about 790 meter architecture so the stuff looks promising but of course it's supposed to look promising at these events the point is to build hype after all so as always take everything here with a grain of salt especially when it comes to extrapolating these announcements into consumer grade seven nanometer launches which we expect will roll out around mid 2019 for now we've got a great 12 nanometer platform to deal with and it's still difficult to recommend lower end Intel equivalents to be completely honest here because the value is so strong on the red team especially with the lower end chips in general what I preach is if you want the best for gaming undeniably intelligible but if you're more concerned with your budget or plan to run multiple programs simultaneously AMD is probably the better way to go and I think that's a fair representation I'm not trying to appease either side here I just think that it's accurate from the senses the two companies a consumer perspective right at this point in time have to compete they have to have competitive advantages and I think those are the advantages at least from the consumers perspective when it comes to both Intel and AMD and again we didn't see a huge IPC jump with second gen rise in architecture but we did see memory support and X and P improvements Teddy your voltage tolerances and higher frequencies across the board things get very stubborn past roughly 4.2 gigahertz and that's something we hope will change with Zen to the real Zen too but for now you can get a solid 4 or 6 core multi-threaded CPU from AMD for well under 200 bucks that's something Intel can not say and it's why so many consumers are wholly backing them as for my take the r5 2600 in particular remains the best CPU you can buy for about a hundred and sixty US dollars that's an insane deal put it this way if your computer budget revolves around $1000 or less the 2600 is the CPU for you period the one caveat being if you only game at which point I would recommend and lock died seven or an unlocked at five but for AMD you could pair it with a $100 B 450 motherboard $150 a basket of ddr4 $50 PSU $50 case hundred bucks and storage drives and you've still got roughly $400 for a killer graphics card again all within that thousand dollar budget and that's gonna give you something around a gtx 1080 or a 1070 depending on whether or not you choose to buy used or new i built a system just like this right here the graphics chart i chose with a gtx 1080 which I actually bought used and if you buy used you might be able to fit two of these in SLI or throw in a single gtx 980ti or an RTX 20 70 maybe if you're lucky maybe you wait till Black Friday Cyber Monday you see some great deals in the are TX cards don't expect it and it's gonna be very difficult to fit any of the touring cards at this point into a thousand dollar budget you might be able to pull it off if you do let me know and let me know how you did it but you'd probably have to make some compromises but let's assume you want the GTX 1080 like I did here you'll have a killer system ready for 1080p 1440p and even lighter 4k gaming you'll have a CPU capable of driving higher refresh rates even with the stock cooler and used and a GPU capable of handling some crispy in-game settings which of course matters when you start bumping your resolutions you don't want to see all those jaggies thanks to the extra pixels on your screen especially if the screen is large I've got benchmarks of this exact config by the way on the channel you can check them out via the link below or the card up top but if you had any doubt about the viability of this combination just check out this GTA 5 benchmark the game is beautifully leveraged both the CPU and GPU work here and we're able to sustain 100 FPS in 1440p with high settings across the board and a dose of anti-aliasing to boot so if you'd like to build a system similar to this one you can check out the links below and support us in the process we do appreciate it I wanna know what you guys think about my CPU of choice for AMD and the graphics thread chose to pair it with a lot of people are asking me whether or not an r5 2600 will bottleneck a gtx 1080 or an r TX 2080 and the answer to that is under most circumstances no it will not if you want your CPU usage most games are gonna be anywhere between 2 to 4 thread dependent meaning that your CPU is just it's not going to be at fault there's not much it can do because you don't have the ability to overclock it much more if you want to call that bottleneck sure fine but I'd take that any day of the week over a lock I five for the same price especially if I'm streaming in the process that's again just my take I don't expect everyone to agree with me there but I wanted to close this with a bit of an opinion because this is basically opinionated apart from the facts I presented earlier in the video nobody think about my build if you want again dealt with similar check out the links below leave a like if you'd like this video that that'd be cool you wanted to do that dislike it feel complete officer decayed everything my life and click the red subscribe button if you haven't already stay tuned for more
