I have some things to say - Core i9 & X299

Unless Intel unlocks their xeons by the time I buy my next rig, x99 will be my last Intel board. Cowtipper is just too much better.

Intel be like," let's see his reaction after we block the maximum RAM speed lol"

This is the video that popped up and how I found Linus Tech Tips about 3 years ago and I've been a sub since.

I'm going full out in my way, AMD.
What performance do your "Ryzen" chips have, and what the f*** does "Ryzen" mean, AMD?
What motherboards are out-of-the-box ready for 3rd gen Ryzen APU without bios update?
What was the TDP of your 8 core processors 4 years ago, AMD?
Why do you need 64 cores at a lower price? It just makes you feel cheap.
What reputation did AMD have before 2017?
Why does B550 not support 2nd gen and 1st gen Ryzen?
You are just removing compatibility for chips even though you are wearing a mask from Intel
It's the same S*** as Intel
Why did Intel change from LGA1151 to LGA 1151 v2?
It is just masking.
I am still asking again and again.
Why don't you fu*** change the socket???

I first subscribed to this channel for the smartphone reviews, they unsubscribed because they talked a lot about PC content, and I wasn't interested at the time, then I watched this video and it convinced me this guy knows his stuff, so I subscribed back, and came to appreciate his humor and knowledge about PC and tech in general.

Nobody knew back then that Threadripper was actually the prototype for the mainline socket. Imagine Intel realising something like the 3950x was coming only two years later with 16c32t for less than $1000.

That video has aged well

This was the point where intel was shown to be weak even if it took 3 years before amd would truly murder intel in every manner.

Rip intel

Totally fair, still the case today. Today in 2020 the stocks reflect their poor decisions next to AMD they turned to shit.

Linus here 3 years later, I'm now watching and WITH YOU....YOU ARE RIGHT ALWAYS RIGHT. Who TF wants / needs a X299 anymore and ANYTHING Intel has to offer? I'm stuck with a sorry to say "new" X299 and a i9-10900X...but that is ONLY until I find a new UBER case and I take my super colossal 8 sticks of RAM and my DUAL TITAN RTXs and all my fans and super cooling and move em all over to AMD !!!! Intel is now what.... 2, 3 years BEHIND AMD ? You're right...I'm buying AMD STOCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lolololol THANKS FOR NOT LETTING ME USE ALL MY AWESOME, EXPENSIVE COMPONENTS INTEL and choking my speeds. DONE WITH YOU INTEL AMD HAS EATEN YOUR LUNCH HOPE YOU STARVE FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS. You're going to have to invent a space shuttle to catch them!!!! Customer base LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it just me getting Detroit Become Human vibes in this video?

o how this killed intel

3 years later I just invested in a new MB - I looked at spec sheets of current offerings, my focus was on pcie architecture (lane allocation etc) as I plan to have at least 4 nvme m2 ssd's, even today very little compares to x299, I bought an MSI x299 Pro Carbon AC for $100 - it is an outstanding master piece in design and flexibility for those that understand such things

I love my X299 system!

I moved into X99 w/ 7900X cause it just seemed familiar coming from all past versions of workstation chipsets like X38, X58, X79, X99 and here. And now it looks like this could be end of the road. I may migrate to mainstream when new socket 1700 comes. Too many expensive upgrades. Lol. Good video. (:

If you bought 1000 bucks worth of AMD shares the moment he told us this, you'd have gotten 89 shares at ~11 usd each. A year later it'd be ~14 usd, a year later it'd be ~29 usd, a year later it'd be ~52 usd. It is 87 dollars as of this writing, a return of 5x over 4 years or 8x over 5.7 years. your 1000 would be 8090 now.

Why do i always come this video. thanks LTT

i9-11900K

How can Linus go outside filming a video in public? How come no one comes up to him and tries to get their PC signed by him or something?

im from the future, intel still sucks and even apple mobile chips have over taken them.

NVidia schill.

Take a drink each time Linus says "up to". Alcohol poisoning in an hour.

Yeah he literally predicted the future

Funny how nowadays x299 is a pretty fantastic deal

Milked by intel

Because Intel got lazy and dumb we have Apple's M1, AMDs resurgence, and Intel actually trying to make good stuff again. In hindsight Intel screwing the customers might have been the best thing for customers in the long run.

jumped for the wan show 🤣

Don't worry sad Linus even though Intel has been not doing great in the last five years, surely they will come out on top in the next two to three years from now.

Anyone else go back thru jayztwocents, gamers Nexus and Linus videos from years ago and remember simpler times?

Singapore!

Just watched this again in 2023, still a great mark of the start of the malaise era of Intel chips.

This video is a cornserstone of your channel

That this only has 2.8m views is a travesty

Just a year after this the CEO resigned and they have been struggling to regain market share ever since

5 years later, gotta come back to see one of the best vids on the channel. Linuses passion and the cinematography is 👌

Is this what they mean when they talk about the "rain walk"?

Legendary video 🤟

Why didnt they carry instead tge LGA 1700 is better untill they go back to the bigger sockets again

I’m sure Intel won’t have any problems in the future!!

Linus with Intel 'Up to' is the original Hawk Tuah girl.

Up Tuah

CORRECTION: Intel has specified pricing - it doesn't really change any of my points -LS
