    For those of you saying that the FX 8150 was the worlds first 8 core desktop CPU, I’m not sure I agree. AMD redefined what they meant by core so that they could market it as an 8 core. They are like loser cut down cores. So I feel like the 5960x is the first “real” 8 core desktop CPU. Let me know what you think.

      That's what I was thinking that the FX CPUs were the first 8 core CPUs released in 2011. However the CPU that my gaming desktop has is only a 6 core cpu, but it's a more recent Intel Core i7-6800K CPU. Also was able to overclock it to 4.3 GHz.

      By your logic, the Intel 12900K isn't a 16-core because it has 8 loser cores. The 8120 released 3 years earlier and was already an 8-core. Performance was lower than the contemporary Intel chips because of Hyper Threading.

    Just goes to show you that old hardware is far from obsolete. Everyone dismisses everything older than 2 years as old and useless, but even 10 year old flagship hardware can give you close to high end gaming experience even in 2022.
    I had similar numbers and even close to 200 FPS in 1080p/Ultra with a i7 4790k/GTX 1080Ti in a lot of modern games and that's with DDR3 RAM (but really high frequency and better timings than most DDR4 - 2500Mhz CL11). Old but gold combo and costs peanuts in comparison. Beats 99% of "budget" builds by a long mile and costs the same or less. In fact it's still in upper midrange territory when it comes to performance numbers. Sure it can't keep up in productivity workloads with modern hardware but in gaming it kicks ass to this day.

      Prebuilts might work, but it's quite a competition saturated market, from the giant OEMs like Dell or HP to the various third party marketplace "Gaming PCs", and of course the decent, custom ones from shops with actual expertise and relying on standard parts (with a perfectly linear scale of getting what you pay for). I don't know what's the point of having only all the parts available since people who build their own PCs component by component are quite particular about the parts they get, checking reviews and user feedback on more or less every one of them.

    For everyone saying FX had the first 8 core: FX isn't really considered 8 core because each core shares resources with another core. It almost acts like a 4 core instead. (this is what I could find online after little researching, its a lot more complicated than this but still)

    I guess the main question is how many components do you change before its no longer the PC that you originally purchased, its like saying I have been using the same bush for 20 years I only replaced the brush 10 times and the handle 20 times XD

    AMD FX 8xxx series were the first consumer 8 core CPUs, they came out in 2011/2012. Intel was years behind with this chip, which came out in 2014.

      There was a lawsuit behind that. it wasn’t a true 8 core they were doing something funny with caches that made them not true cores.

    • @robwiljas
      @robwiljas 2 роки тому +3

      The FX line were not true 8 cores and AMD were sued over it. While they did have 8 x86 cores, they weren't separate cores like the 5960x. In the FX there are 4 modules of 2 cores each, and those cores on each module share a single branch prediction engine, a single instruction fetch and decode stage, a single floating-point math unit, a single cache controller, a single 64K L1 instruction cache, a single microcode ROM, and a single 2MB L2 cache.

    • @Dominik12335
      @Dominik12335 2 роки тому

      ye ur right, but intel 8 cores "extreme" cpus are sick in terms of their performance even now. FX's are cool, but they are pretty weak rn, no matter how high u clock them. But still, ur right, AMD was first with consumer 8 cores. And i'm mad at amd cuz my r5 3600 dies on everything higher than 4.05GHz, no matter what voltage i give to it. Shitty silicon i guess. But i bought it used and it was pretty cheap so ye, guess that's the reason why it was cheap :v Still it was an good upgrade from my i5 4590.

    • @krammerdijksdeltaland8408
      @krammerdijksdeltaland8408 2 роки тому +2

      Depending on your definion of a core the FX 8XXX and 9XXX where more like a like 4 core 8 Thread CPU really.
      AMD marketed them as 4 Modules with 2 'Cores' each, however a module only had one shared Floating Point Unit, so depending on your defintion of which parts have to be present for something to be called it's own core it may not be a fully fletched 8-core.
      You can see this in practice in Cinebench for example, the FX-8150's Multicore is just 5,9-6,0 times higher than it's single threaded performance; because not everything in a 2 'core' module is properly duplicated.
      Now if we look at antother 8C/8T CPU - the I7-9700 which does have 8 cores but no hypertrhreading, the difference between Multicore and Singlecore performance is almost 7,5; despite having a a larger frequency increase when just one core is working instead of all 8 than the older FX CPU's had.

  • @FurlHawkens
    @FurlHawkens 2 роки тому +3

    First 8 core consumer was/is the AMD FX line. And before anyone brings up the AMD settlement understand that AMD's *choice* to settle does not imply they did anything wrong, and you need to thank them for the choice to settle. Fact is most people who understand CPU design understood that despite being different, controversial, and ultimately a commercial failure, AMD's FX line had in fact 8 ALU units. Pro Tip on CPU history, the ALU defined the first x86 CPU, and the now ubiquitous FPU that is more often used today was an add on chip. AMD's FX line, by the definitions of that, had 8 compute cores. AMD knew this, people who get CPU design knew this, but its *way* beyond the general consumer, the same one who then felt "wronged" that they only had 4 of the more useful FPU cores and not a full 8, and the 8 cores they did have went un-used or used in a less than optimal way more often than not because of it.
    In the end the lawsuit was from unhappy people who didn't understand the technicalities of the product the bought and then sued over it.
    The only outcome, sadly, would have been a US Court having to make a legal precedent ruling on what *exactly* defines a CPU "core". Either way, AMD wins or losses, the Consumer and IT industry as a whole would have been the ultimate losers. As we would have had a legal court precedent set that would define in literal terms what is and is not a "core" and would have thus had an everlasting or long lasting affect on any public designs from either company. This is called stifling innovation. You keep new things out of the world this way.
    AMD's attempt at a new thing (2:1 ALU:FPU ratios) didn't pan out, but it *is* the first consumer 8 core chip. Their willingness to take the hit in the end and *not* set a legal precedent one way or the other is something every PC user should feel thankful for regardless of the camp you are in.
    All that said, still an interesting video on Intel's first attempt at one a few year after the fact. And to be fair this one has a full ALU:FPU compliment!

    The spare tire and jack are good, but the engine, drivetrain, body, wheels, glass, seats, paint, and all trim, surfaces and fuel system were over five years old, so all I had to do was replace all that and also while I was i there I replaced the wiring and electronics.

Which is an 8 core 16 thread cpu that can be overclocked to over 4 gigahertz. I've personally used it myself and it's still a pretty good performer today.
