yo" magician



[PenguinRecordings]

Does Tom's Hardware do vids like this for AMD as well?

[chrisangelini]

@PenguinRecordings If they'll work with us on them, sure! Check out the Eyefinity 6 video that I have posted as well.

[PenguinRecordings]

@chrisangelini Glad to know your open to it, I'll check it out.

[MrComputereviews]

2600k is better but sandybrige was not out at the time of filming.

[InferocitoMustang]

@MrComputereviews This is good one :)) You are joking or don't know much about processors !!

[MrComputereviews]

@InferocitoMustang 2600k is better you retard

[InferocitoMustang]

@MrComputereviews Kid go to sleep cartoon is over !!

[MrComputereviews]

@InferocitoMustang yes because a 3 year old chipset and a prosseser form 2010 is better then sandy brige

[InferocitoMustang]

@MrComputereviews This is a 6 core processor are you really that stupid !! Write i72600k vs i7890x on google that will solve your problem !! Bye

[MrComputereviews]

@InferocitoMustang alright you retard you know most applications don`t use more then 2 threads.

[InferocitoMustang]

@MrComputereviews Oh I don't have time for stupid comments !! And watch your language kid !! Ciao

[Kloborgg]

@MrComputereviews

The Sandy Bridges are much more economical and efficient than the i7 970/980/990x processors.. but those are still the high-end intel CPUs, and are still more powerful than the i7 2600k. The Ivy Bridges will be the replacement for the Extreme i7 900s.

[simranjeet36]

@MrComputereviews nope clock for clock performance shows the 980x is still better

[jewie27]

6 months and it won't be the best

[angelite143]

5 AMD users disliked this video

[bettergaming1]

It drops in 1366 socket, not 1566.

[Sergeyx64]

980x LOOKS LIKE Phenom II x3 (x2) in one Chip

[Gameboykd]

everytime i see computer illiterates buy this stuff i just cry because thats when they end up throwing it away at the dump a year later because "it was starting to run very slow"

[PatrykBednarskiPC]

Nice video made! What program do you using to make these effects

like in = 1:30 - 1:45

[starwarsfan76]

Too bad AMD has an actual octo core cpu now, and a 16 core cpu for servers and high end desktops. :) Suck it Intel.

[pr0vider]

@starwarsfan76 amd user detected!!

[starwarsfan76]

@pr0vider No crap I use AMD, Intel is overpriced shit.

[lapulapu12345]

RIGHT processor for OVERCLOCKING

[lord800]

it is stil half as fast as a cell cpu and a cell cpu haze 300mln trsts and this haze 1.12 bln

[TheMadeira2010]

yeah i am FAN INTEL IT yeah but NOT A AMD!!!!

[cowboys32296]

But will it blend?

[gustavohuink]

@cowboys32296 That is the question! *Intro starts*

[GeekingForJesus]

What does the cache do? I never know what that is when I'm shopping for PCs.

[lapulapu12345]

CACHE is a component that transparently stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster.

[GeekingForJesus]

@lapulapu12345 So is there a really noticeable difference between an 8MB cache and a 12MB cache?

[Usul573]

@GeekingForJesus

When you have this many cores/threads, it can definitely help if the program will use them.

[Badshy]

1.55 - He said SLR and Crossfire D:

[leerman22]

at first i thought he said he was Cris Angel

[pursuinginsanity]

@aparach You do realize that GPUs are *vastly* more capable at multi-threaded, highly parallel processing, right?  Intel recently released a statement that "GPUs are *only* 14 times more powerful than CPUs at this point". Check out CUDA processing. A lot of massive scientific type projects are moving towards GPU computing via CUDA, etc.

[pursuinginsanity]

@2point6x4 For about the same price (well, a little more) you can get an i3 530 that will run circles around your chip (for everything - gaming included). There are some very good price/perf AMD chips, but that's not one of them. Not that it's a bad chip, just not the best for your comparison. I don't understand blind brand loyalty.

[aparach]

imagine if this i7 980x convert to GPU.. it would be more 6 years advance than we have the technology today...

[tiagom135]

Why wold i want a ferrari if i can get a merc!

[Badshy]

@tiagom135 cawwws I want a LAMBO!

[icoopers]

AMD is weirdly built and cheap with obvious poor results. No match for Intel.

[2point6x4]

@icoopers my AMD 550 Phenom II X2 runs my games great and it only cost $100.

for the price it's No match for intel.

[Badshy]

@2point6x4 It's because you're no match for it :L

[2point6x4]

@Badshy your right my motherboard is socket AM3 : )

[tanvir148]

you busters never lower the price to a minimum . So i just have use amd processors . Motherchoods

[strategicconsultants]

oh come on, i just finished my i7-920 rig like 6 months ago, i want a 980x CPU now

[veyroPL]

It's so sick !

My dream PC

[Madblaster89]

Just made a vid on my channel. Put the 980x under a Noctua NH-D14!!!!!!

[wickedout2010]

Why to be on giving props to the i5 750! Dang I wish I could afford the 980x! That CPU is a beast!!

[rutoojinn]

@wickedout2010

Like he said it gives the best in terms of price and performance, just about anyone will be happy with that cpu. 980x is a beast i agree with that lol.

[nativus222]

AMD is the best bet you can go for if you can't afford this card.

[TheMadOrc]

I am an amd fan but they just cant compete with Intel and I am gamer so I am not using amd again.

[Eclipezz]

i got a i7 920 D0 @4.2ghz i was thinking about getting this but since 95% of all games dont support quad cores so why would you have 6 cores ? also it wont overclock as high as the quad cores and the price is extreme since in most games it will just run like a single or dual core

[birdwingsvids]

Does anybody know if the i7 980x configured in dual CPU?

[chrisangelini]

@birdwingsvids No, you'd need a Xeon 5600-series CPU to achieve that.

[verdunburnett]

@chrisangelini that's a shame, I'd like to have two of these on one mother

[SiaSound]

@chrisangelini

meaning for everybody: No their isn't a motherboard to run duel i7 Processors

[deluxedookie]

@birdwingsvids

evga has a 1366 dual-cpu board now

[deluxedookie]

@birdwingsvids

i7 & new xeon 's are the same just the xeon has more QPI so it can go dual cpu, i7 was made for the home user

[123456789sha]

the most powerfull pc/console what i used was the PS3, with linux and a special patch to unlock 4 cores

[mathhenr]

@123456789sha The most powerful hardware you used was the $60 Cell chip the PS3 uses? You know, we do have options beyond Celeron and Sempron.

Also, how did you "unlock 4 cores" if the only core Cell has is its single PPE?

[123456789sha]

@mathhenr yes that was the powerfull cpu ever:P!, but on tpb was that .iso of fedora core and when i installed it and pressed ctrl+alt+del it says; core 0, core1 ,core2 and core3

[mathhenr]

@123456789sha Dude, Cell is very far from being the most powerful CPU ever. In fact, any Wolfdale-based processor would outperform it on home user setups. And Cell only has one core, the 3.2 GHz PPE. It would be understandable if a OS detected its two threads, but four is just ridiculous.

You should look for a CBEA article or its page on Wikipedia so you have a clue next time you comment something like this.

[123456789sha]

@mathhenr hmm ok

[TheMadOrc]

the ps3 has a weak chip.

[daredevilstu]

@TheMadOrc the ps3 has a linux mobo its shit lol

[ChuloRob617]

I want it! Someone please buy it for me! LOL....Seriously

[GamePlayUpload]

haha

6 Cores now the must power full Computer i have ever used is 2 Core :O

[asswipe91]

Why are you so blurry mister

[asafchen1]

u Know on Game that Core is dont So good this I7 is for graphics

but dont worry i ear intel gonna do a new core call I9 on the I9 we can pay less and on games she will be good but not on graphics but to is awsome cause is got 6 core on 3.3ghz

[verdunburnett]

@asafchen1

if you were drunk and high and 3 years old... and a blind deaf dumb hermit from Russia that only spoke Arabic - that might explain why your comment is so poorly written...

But I'd still be worried about you

[the666ms]

@verdunburnett lol so right

[killerclown789]

I can't understand what you're saying.

[NoneImparticular]

U drunk or something?

[fediamalysh]

@asafchen1 I can understand you

[baddspella]

did he say his name was chriss angel?

[miksulder]

cryengine2 was last true pc gaming bench now even cryengine3 is builded mainly for consoles, so where are the games to support 100% pc?

[abduction03]

nope, cryengine3 is superior than ce2 cos it adds support for way more features like dynamic volumetric for lights, multicore support, DX11 api support and also adds support for developers for porting to consoles, while ce2 wasnt directed to console developers, so developers can take advantage of features for consoles, and can take advantage for all the api's for PC.

So cs2 is like 100% PC support

while cs3 is 100% PC support + 100% console support

[killerclown789]

The Consoles will not be able to use the PC api's

[SashaMazendame]

cry me a river

[SutkasFan]

@alija638

why no ??

coz u aint got it maybe ???

[SutkasFan]

@alija638

well why you didn't posted a video about it ???

[SutkasFan]

@alija638

are you joking ???

[hoboX10]

I want to see how fast this beast can run a professional grade AviSynth script on a full HD video.

Video post-processing ftw!

[jin37uk]

hopefully they bring out a cheaper, non extreme 6 core i7

[killerclown789]

I heard they were making an 8 core processor.

[starfaceeee]

they're making an 80 core processor :)

[Wookie1234567]

9001 cores.

[fighter052594]

IT OVER 9000!?!?!?!?!

[Wookie1234567]

Yes.

[2point6x4]

@jin37uk There is one, it's called AMD X6 1090T. and it's only $295 or 1055T for $200 and is better then $999.99 any day!

[junkerde]

great for my video editing and 3d compositing

[chowdery]

Hot-ot-ot!

[chowdery]

HOT!-OT-OT!

[hondaracingnet]

amazing!!! 6 core cpu. a lot of multitasking

[ffdxshow]

Wow!! this is great!
