 All right, what's up internet? So we're filming this during the time of corona and kaya tayo nakamas ngayon. Focus on positive news, especially para sa mga mahiilin sa computer, mga gamers. There is actually good news coming. AMD is scheduled to release its fourth gen CPUs and this is the Zen 3 architecture. It looks like AMD is still on a roll. The performance increases will be just as dramatic as what we saw from Ryzen 1 to Ryzen 2 and then Ryzen 2 to Ryzen 3. So AMD is on track to deliver the same performance increases. And considering a lot of people are quite happy with R2, Ryzen 2, Ryzen 3, we expect to be happy as well when the Ryzen 4 comes out this year. Rumor has it they will be announced officially September this year and then they will probably be released around October and because the Philippines is not a major market, we might start seeing them locally around November or December. But definitely the Ryzen 4 will be faster and will supposedly consume less wattage as well. The bad news is they won't support DDR5 so if you're looking to upgrade to DDR5, you might need to wait for the motherboard manufacturers to come up with new boards because you will need new boards for DDR5. And the good news is it's still AM4 so the socket is still AM4 just as AMD promised so it is backward compatible with the Ryzen 1 and onward motherboards. Although they're not all backwards compatible because some motherboard manufacturers are having a hard time fitting all of the instructions onto the BIOS chipset. It's a bit technical but the socket itself AM4 is backward compatible but some boards because of the limitations of storage won't be backward compatible with the Ryzen 4. But this is the last time we're going to be seeing an AMD release with AM4 because they have confirmed that Ryzen 5 will be using a different socket. So this is the swan song of the AM4 but who knows to AMD that they have kept the same that they have kept it at AM4 for their entire run of Ryzen so far. Ryzen 1 all the way up to 4 have used the AM4 socket and this is in contrast to Intel which basically changes sockets a lot more and of course this is harder for people who want to upgrade just the CPU instead. And of course every time a socket changes it's that much harder to upgrade it gets more expensive so who knows really to AMD for getting performance as well as managing to keep the same socket. Team Red is on a roll and it looks like it will continue its impressive performance later on in the year with Ryzen 4. Still keeping with AMD news they are also scheduled to announce and release the update to their graphics card. It's called NaVy 2 or Big NaVy or RDNA2 and just a side note on the naming conventions actually I think this is one area where AMD can improve because their naming structure is really confusing. It's not like NVIDIA NVIDIA does a good job there's the NVIDIA 1000 line so that's the 1660, the 1080, 1070, 960 and things like that and you know what you're getting AMD for graphics cards has a very convoluted naming system and you know again they can't figure it out the latest upcoming is called Big NaVy, NaVy 2 unlike their CPU line which is super easy there's a Ryzen 1 followed by the 2, 3 and 4 and I wish AMD would adopt something like that instead of flip flopping with the names because the names are important the lines or what you call the lines make it a lot easier for consumers to understand that yes I want this NaVy 2 because it's faster than NaVy is NaVy 2 different from Big NaVy what's RDNA2 the more terms you file on the consumer the harder it is for him to figure out that this is the card that I need don't make the consumer think anymore because if you have to think too much he's just gonna go run to NVIDIA where everything is a lot more straightforward but that aside yes NaVy 2 looks to be better for AMD finally NaVy 2 will allow them to have 4k gaming which currently only NVIDIA is capable of doing the performance as well is supposed to be a lot faster 50-75% is the leaks or the news that is circulating so at least and most importantly it will finally have ray tracing or basically RTX on something that NVIDIA popularized and really jumped on with the 2000 line, the RTX 2000 line so finally AMD is playing catch up but at least with the NaVy 2 it looks like they will be at par with NVIDIA but that won't be for long because as I'll talk about NVIDIA's 3000 line looks set to blow it looks set to surpass all of the performance specs now it's gonna leapfrog over everything else so AMD might tie NVIDIA's 2000 line but when the ampere 3000 line of NVIDIA comes along that's gonna be a different story and we're gonna talk about that later NaVy 2 is set to launch sometime around October so again maybe around December we can expect the cards to reach us here in the Philippines and interestingly enough around October is when the PS5 is coming out and the Xbox Series X again, I don't know why they made these names so complicated but what's nice about or what's interesting about the next gen consoles the PS5 and the Xbox Series X is that they also make use of the NaVy 2 for their graphics processing and if the architectures are basically the same then it might be easier for console games to be ported to the PC so we might be seeing a lot more of porting from console exclusive items maybe they'll make their way to the PC faster so we PS in particular has a lot of nice exclusives like Horizon Zero Dawn which only recently got ported to the PC and since now the next gen consoles will be sharing a lot of graphical architecture with NaVy 2 it might be easier for game makers to port them to the PC assuming that a lot of people do buy NaVy 2 GPUs so those will be the ones to port them okay, shifting over to the Intel side of things Intel is set to release the 10th gen Comet Lake desktop we've already seen some of them being used in laptops so there are 10 gen Intel CPUs in laptops already this is slated the desktop CPUs are slated to be on hand around 2nd quarter so we're thinking actually next month may perhaps Intel will start releasing them so as I mentioned Intel likes changing the socket so this is not LGA 1151 it's LGA 1200 and the motherboards that you need will be the Z490 line actually the motherboard manufacturers have been all set to go based on the news they've been ready with the Z490 line however Intel has held back this particular chipset the 10th gen because they have been trying to get better performance with less power because all of the early reports have indicated that the 10th gen Intel generate a lot of heat and they use a lot of power and so Intel has been trying to cut that down but apparently they've been unsuccessful because now what we're hearing is that they are just simply going to release the 10th gen CPUs very soon and just to put it in perspective the Intel 10th gen are supposedly use as much power as an RTX 2080 that's around 220 watts and that's a lot of power and actually you're going to have a 10th gen and then you're going to have a 2080 that's basically 440-480 watts so you're going to need a good PSU and you're going to need a good cooler if you're going to be upgrading to the 10th gen Intel disappointingly performance is sort of lackluster at this scene some early leaks and again this is all rumor this is not official but it seems to tie in to what everybody else is saying they had an i9 10900K versus and Ryzen 9300X so they are 9300X is available now it's from the current line of Ryzen it's not the 4th gen Ryzen so a CPU that AMD has available now stacked up versus a future Intel CPU the AMD actually won it's actually 7% faster or roughly than the Intel 10th gen so the comet lake 10th gen Intel looks to be a bit disappointing and yes there are people who super love Intel and they might be a reason to upgrade to it but on its own all things considered the 10th gen line will not be the one to convince people to go back to Intel so Intel is still playing catch up with the comet lake line someone not playing catch up though is NVIDIA and they are set to release their third or their 3000 series it's a new graphics architecture they call it ampere versus the touring architecture of the 2000 line my promises is much much faster graphics at a lower much much faster graphics for less power the rumor is or the early numbers are showing that we will get a 50-75% increase in performance with a decrease in power consumption of around 50% so that's really across the board those are great numbers and you really might want to wait if you're looking to upgrade your graphics card you might want to wait for the NVIDIA 3000 line because the numbers really are looking quite good how long will you have to wait? the rumor is that they will be officially announced in August and then they will be available commercially sometime around the end of the year and and in fairness to NVIDIA they really do take care of the gamer segment and pushing to the performance if you're curious the gaming segment makes up 50% of NVIDIA's revenue so they know who butters their toast and they really actively try to push the envelope when it comes to graphics cards so who does so NVIDIA and you might want to wait for their 3000 series if you're thinking of upgrading lastly we're going to end with memory with RAM DDR5 we've been hearing about this for a long time around 2018 that's what people started saying that DDR5 is actually a reality 2019, bit of news and finally in 2020 there has been news that it will be finally in 2020 it has been announced that yes, DDR5 will be mass manufactured this year so that's going to slowly start rolling out the server side builds and then more slowly to consumer and PCs and DDR5 will require you to buy a new motherboard current motherboard do not support DDR5 but what you get basically DDR5 is offering double the speed so it's roughly DDR4's around 3200MHz yes there are faster but on the average 3200MHz DDR5 is promising 6400MHz and that is not yet overclocked so there is significant performance gains associated with DDR5 but you will need to upgrade your motherboard and no word yet as to pricing this should benefit AMD builds because the Ryzen architecture has taken advantage of faster RAMs and RAM size so generally the faster your RAM the better your Ryzen builds and so that can only get better with the upcoming DDR5 so that's it a lot of interesting things coming for PC later on in the year we just need to get through the first part of 2020 and you know a lot of people are suffering health wise a lot of people are suffering economic wise business wise so the best thing we can do is to follow health protocols we will beat this thing and hopefully once we come out on the other side there are a lot of interesting hardware to splurge on or that we can experiment with or that we can have fun with so in the meantime everyone stay safe and things to look forward later on and these were the things to look forward to after we get out of lockdown so I hope that these basic tips helped you if you found this video helpful please drop a like and hit the subscribe button for
