2018-09-06
what's up Tech fans more tech is on the horizon this time from AMD today AMD announced seven brand-new SKUs that will be released to the market but Before we jump in and we talk about all these new CPUs let's hear a word from today's sponsor 0 & 9 it's about that time again folks back-to-school season is upon us and if you're a student on a budget then 0 & 9 has got you covered right now you can get Microsoft Office 2016 for under $25 including Word Excel PowerPoint and more Microsoft Office has everything you need to keep your perfect GPA and with a special coupon code for our fans you can

cheap there you have it now like I said AMD has just announced seven new SKUs of their cpu line the first up is their brand new 200 GE they also have a 220 GE and a 240 GE but for some reason this particular information hasn't hit the market yet now AMD's time that the big things about this CPU is it's gonna be much faster than their previous generation CPU in this type of category okay that's kind of a no-brainer on it's kind of expecting that I wasn't really expecting it to be slower you're not gonna come up with advertisement say hey our CPU slower than the last one buy it obviously so that right there is kind of a no-brainer I did expect it to be faster now the big thing is those are saying it's going to be about 84 percent faster though in gaming which is good news which means that basically you know an Intel processor with their onboard graphics the onboard graphics on this particular CPU line is probably going to be much better and play better games now these new GE CPUs feature Zen core technology and Vega technology all on one die now they call this system-on-chip technology and I don't know if it's new but it kind of sounds reasonable because you're putting a chip onto a chip right you're having the graphics right on there now this particular CPU the 200 GE how is very low priced coming to market at $55 really low price that's seriously entry-level money for PC stuff now unfortunately though it only has two cores for threads it has three graphic compute units and it's 3.2 gigahertz so I mean it's not really slow and I mean obviously for some older games and stuff that don't take advantage of you know multi-core technology you might actually get some really good gaming experience playing the older games for a fact now in addition to the first three SKUs that we just talked about which are very entry level and honestly at the price and the performance that they're touting it should be a very good deal left to see when they actually get it how they test but honestly for that price point it seems like they're gonna get a good market share of buyers because it's just honestly really cheap and it looks like it's going to have good performance now there's also four other SKUs being released and the first one's kind of weird because it's an Athlon pro right it's still a two hundred GE but it's an Athlon Pro GE now everyone I don't even know what you guys would say but I hear the name Athol and I feel like we're in a car we're gonna reverse or just peeling out going backwards and reverse because Athlon to me like speaks of like you know the previous days and having the CPU with the same type of name 200 GE so we have a pro version a non pro version might be a little bit confusing to some people but the specs are pretty much identical other than the five megabytes of cache it's still you know two cores four threads three points two gigahertz 35 watts of TDP so I mean it's pretty much the identical chip just with a pro thing tapped onto it now what the price exactly is on this they haven't announced it and what the performance is going to be you know is it's gonna be really that much better than the other version I don't know we'll have to see when it gets here now the next CPU is the 2700 X now this is the new rise in Pro 2700 X now this features 8 cores 16 threads a hundred and five watts of TDP and a twenty megabyte cache so all in all really nice CPU now right underneath it though is the 2700 now this to me seems like the really sweet spot about everything because it still has eight cores 16 threads 65 watts of TDP so the power requirements much law which for you know people like to overclock and stuff that's gonna come across really really well in fact you're probably hear people saying just buy the 2700 and overclock it because obviously with that low of power you've got a lot of room to work with to overclock that CPU and since it's pretty much identical I mean it really is now they're really only two differences between these two CPUs is that on the 2700 X it's 3.6 for the base and then 4.1 for the boost and on the 2700 the base clock is 3.2 and the boost clock is 4.1 so they're really almost identical and since the CPUs probably going to be running it's boosted mode most of the time the 2700 to me sounds like it is the really sweet spot now and last but not least we see the rise in 5 pro 2600 now this particular CPU has 6 cores 12 threads only 19 megabytes of cache which is a little kind of crazy right there this particular CPU has a base clock speed of 3.4 and a boost of 3.9 and we still see 65 watts of TDP so all in all all of these CPUs sound like they have potential now AMD is obviously saying that you know these CPUs are gonna be faster than the competition you know we always hear that I always wait until we actually see the results in-house because you guys all know that everybody hypes their product up that's just how things are the computer industry it's like we've discovered go we've reinvented the wheel we've discovered a new religion I mean it's almost like that all the time in the PC industry everybody just hype stuff up but looking at a CPU the 200 GE that's coming to mark it's only gonna be 55 dollars if you're building any kind of computer just for surfing the net even like gaming and all that kind of stuff 55 watts you can get a motherboard for probably around $80 and you can get some cheaper memory so the only thing really a building assistant that's gonna cost any money at that point would really be getting the memory since memory prices are kind of high beyond that you can build yourself a really really really cheap system I mean only 55 watts of power drains the dog shaking in the background by the way Furman with that particular sound it's he's giving us the flea shake or something you know but that's what that was you can build a really cheap system which means you can probably get a case with even a built-in power supply I know people are gonna go my god those suck Eric I know but if you're building something really cheap for somebody that's just you know they don't have a lot of money and they want to get an entry-level system hey man that 200 GE combined with lower in parts can be a great bill now how the other you know processes are gonna pan out I don't know personally from what I'm looking at though I feel that the 2700 is like the perfect out of all of them it's that perfect spot in between everything else the 65 watts of TDP vs. 105 TDP to me that's a big difference and gives a lot of room for overclocking and if you've no one overclocking you just want to have the system running really really cool the nice liquid cooler hey the lower your power draw the cooler that CPU is going to run now I don't know exactly when I'll see these CPUs in the house I'll try to get them here as soon as possible as you can bring you guys the testing but they announced them today they're coming to market so if you're an AMD fan especially there's good news on the horizon and the numbers they're looking good for more information we'll have a link down below if you want to get yourself a cheap office key hey you can do that as well peace out we'll see you back here on the channel for more tech
