Farmer Crack-rear end posted:i guess i just don't do really CPU heavy stuff. like i guess my old C2D would have been seriously inadequate for DOOM, but it was still usually good enough for day-to-day poo poo. there's not. like, honestly, for 99% (made up number) of computer users, any i3 from 2012 or so will more than suffice provided sufficient ram and such. for gamers, an i5 from the same time. for the pagancows, yeah, maybe you need to upgrade annually. intel has been focusing entirely on power savings, so laptops do actually see benefit from new processors, but not really so much that there's any need to upgrade unless you're really upset plugging in every four hours or whatever.

really though i think that is #fakenews since there's no such thing as amd fans unless they are talking about the literal fan on the graphics card, in which case it wasn't murder

the kind of people who buy amd because 'MORE CORES!!!!' are the same people who will never, ever be happy playing games because they'll always know in their hearts that they can eke out another 1 fps if they *just* adjust this slider correctly

my friend was complaining on fb about how his pc has, for as long as he's had it, randomly rebooted. he could never figure it out and it was never reproducible. people were offering suggestions which were all "did that. did that. tried that. nope, not that." the next he posts that he removed his overclock and it stopped doing it. the first response was basically 'you idiot'

gizmodo impressively wrote a review with a conclusion that's both factually incorrect and not supported by the rest of the article:quote:Ryzen runs cooler than Kaby Lake or Skylake, and it sucks up less power, and it’s faster.  though they somehow got ROTR to render twice as many frames with the amd than the 7700K despite the ars review having them fairly close (with the intel doing more) https://gizmodo.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-ryzen-amds-shot-at-an-inte-1792867348
