I moved from Tampa to Santa Clara a few months ago and I’m thinking of purchasing a single family home there, but with real estate prices currently through the roof, is it still a good idea to buy a home or should I invest in stocks for now and just wait for a housing market correction? Looks like NVDA, TSM and AMD and AVGO are strong buys this week.

Id love some "monster" APUs for desktop, the 780m is nice but desktops have more room for additional power and cooling.

I'm here for the news. Either presentation style is fine. Do what makes sense when it makes sense.

I don't min the "talking head" videos; I treat them as a podcast and listen while I'm doing other stuff.

stop appologizing for "talking head" video's. It does not bother me. Getting the info from you is what I want. But every video appologizing for something I do not care about is anoying.

A mix is good :) Need to get that info ASAP sometimes !

Honestly I love your talking head videos man, I like being able to put a voice to a face. Makes it feel waaaaay less robotic! So mate, I'm proud of you doing whatever you like but I prefer your talking head videos and if you personally like the other format... throw that in from time to time too. = ) Much love from Australia! PS: Wanted to add when you do the mix of the two with content and your video in the corner is a great way to show things I personally thought. So like a mashup of the two

That expandable VRAM for local LLMs is going to be incredible.

How would they keep the power connectors on a "4090 Super" from melting, given it's going to eat even MORE power than the 4090 which already has "melting power connectors" issues?

3:23 this makes it to where your ryzens CPU's dont ramp up to max frequency/power when doing semi CPU intensive tasks. Have you played a game and noticed your CPU shoot to 90c almost immediately? this sort of in theory fixes that. There was always some weirdness going on with certain old games and ryzen CPU's where the games did not like ryzens architecture (if im not mistaken)

I am TOTALLY FINE with whatever style you choose (talking head or voice over) ... I want you to make the video that WORKS BEST FOR YOU! :) If one way is easier for you to make then by all means go for it!! It really doesn't matter to me TBH.... There IS ONE THING tho... there were like 2 or 3 times where you did a talking head video and must have done something different with the audio setup (I think you were standing and it was just during the ad-read... but this was a while ago so I don't remember ALL the details :/ ) Well there was a pretty bad reverb/echo on your voice and it was super noticeable and pretty bad :( - BUT it was only during the ad read, so it was pretty short and was back to normal in less than a minute :) So I think because you were standing up you were projecting your voice much more than usual and so the sound was just bouncing off of everything lol Like I said, it was only a couple times this happened and it was a while back... SO I'm pretty sure you know about it.. but if not then now you know to look out for it :)

I wonder if they thought about stacking cache on gpu or to vram kinda like they did with x3d chips. Maybe get some speed bumps. Maybe intigrate it all into one chip.

these vids are fine. you get to the point, no fluff. love it. I do think you could rasp up your voice a bit though it's almost disturbingly smooth

I hope Strix halo has an 8 core full gpu variant. I’m worried they are gonna only make the full gpu for the 16 core and I couldn’t afford that

I've said it for a long time now, they need to add M.2 slots on every GPU with DMA and Directstorage. I would love to add a PCIe5.0 4TB drive to my GPU, like a L3 cache.

Wow, I need to learn more about this-Superposition benchmark. I know Heaven and Valley but this has gotta support DX12 and Vulkan. If possible, I wanna test it on my A12 9800.

A 6-8 core with decent apu will win a lot of more budget limited fans. There's about 6bn people who're never going to afford a new gpu

IMO the presentation style should go to efficiency and clarity; whatever is best at the moment, so a mix of different styles, but showing the proof of everything is always a must. Pumped for Ryzen 11000 series, a true redesign, and probably the last full redesign, as Silicon is getting to it's Physical limit; which reminds me other Elements combos were being tested, and also Photonics

RTX 4090 supers would probably get so hot it would visibly turn red, the only way to cool the beast is by sticking 3 industrial grade fans and put it on the highest setting for cold intake air and fast exhaust lol

Great content and happy to with how ever you do your content. Love the DBZ hat 👍🏼

Thanks for sharing! Best wishes

These vids are great!

Lol curve shaper, They have just done what my modded version of Ryzen SMU tool does. Since I can have really high offsets when the CPU is hot but it would crash at low temps from trying to boost to high so It switches between 3 CO profiles based on below 30C, 30-60C, 60C+

Intel is dead before launch

That 4090 looks interesting. But 3 GHz isnt that much for OC. Or am I wrong? I have a TUF 4090 OC which clocks just slightly above 3000 MHz when overclocked on its default vBIOS. With the Galax 666w vBIOS (And therefore with 1.1v), it does 3100 to 3150 MHz. Thats with a simple waterblock on it. Without water, I lose around 50 MHz.

Your variety of video styles is fine. Thanks for everything you’re doing! 😎🤙

dawg, you as the daily news is lit

I was surprised when I first saw you on camera but this way nobody can say you are a robot! Keep up the good work. Feel free to do either or a mix of both.

CXL will be a transformative tech, cache coherence bus. This would be a great use for it.

I say pick which ever video style you like doing the best. I can only speak for myself but the video delivery style comes second to the actual info you provide us with!

"new technology" by Pamnesia - AMD offered expanded memory via something similar to an SSD as early as the datacenter counterpart of the Fury.

Being able to add vram to your GPU could literally extend the life of a GPU for quite some years. Imagine a 4060 Ti, it will be enough for 1080p for quite a while if you don't care about max graphics on every game, but at this point some games will need more than 8GB even in 1080p. With that you'd be able to spend way less than a new GPU would cost you and perhaps even upgrade to 1440p and still being able to get playable frame rates. That's also why I don't think it will be adopted, imagine helping your customers needing to buy your product less times...

wow this 5x3 power curve setting is going to be very interesting.

4:08 so that means when idle you can downclock and undervolt and while under load you can overclock

the new youtube layout swaps video's and comments locations from the old layout, going to result in less engagement, hides the whole comment section in theater mode.

Amd radeon pro ssg?

Vram addition ssd would be a blessing for many gamers!!

Mix of video styles is always good 👍🏼

Nvidia gatekeeping performance on the 4090 is a very Nvidia thing to do. Is anyone really surprised ?

to be fair, i enjoy your overview videos such as this at 1.75x speed... content and voice quality are more important to me than any particular visual video style. while i'm in the industry myself and keep a pretty tight finger on hw, i enjoy your perspective as it is substantially more mainstream/vox pop than the stuff i dig into personally, thus helping me round out my perspective and not lose touch with with the people who are the majority of the sector by being way too far into the details.

Ironically I found your channel only recently and I enjoy the talking head videos and now I’m curious what you did previous that you think is better??

the presentation style that makes the most sense, is the best! nobody complains, so do stuff like you want to. your videos are the perfect videos to literally be 100% up-to-date anyway, so well that there's no suprises like "shit, I just bought a CPU last month and now there's a new and better generation out" 😄

I am hoping the extended VRAM capacity using Panmnesia CXL memory expanders technology is developed - that would be fantastic for folks like me who have an RTX 3080 10GB or basically anyone with a GPU under 16GB >> keep up the good work 👌💯👀🎯😎🌟

Gamer Meld Bro, please promise me, you will take a vacation anywhere soon. You pump out so much content on a yearly basis, you deserve some rest.

Just one suggestion: sometimes if talking about numbers, such as comparing two speeds, its useful to have a graphic showing those numbers together so the information stands out clearly.

I like the talking-head videos. I like to see how enthusiastic you are when talking.

Mix is good :)

Either video is fine for me, theyre informative and well presented

zen6 might be in the ps6?

We love your normal self.

Strix halo on desktop? I guess we need 2 128bit camm RAM slots

Don't apologise my man I like your videos despite getting these news usually earlier from other sources, but your delivery is good.

I like all of your videos and actually didn’t even realized what changed… so everything’s no is fine with me, your videos are still great

nice video, keep it up

I prefer a mix. I feel you've never needed to apologize for the usual style not being present.

Dropping in VRAM into your GPU is a consumer AI Game changer. I have a 4090 and 24GB is NOT ENOUGH. Forget about ChatGPT, you can run UN-BIAS LLM's on consumer cards...

Adding 8/16 GB of super fast pcie 4.0 / 5.0 ssd/ram to be used as vram is totally viable

Budget APUs should replace the mid to low end GPUs IMO and if you want top notch graphics you pay for hte top end dGPU

I actually think you could make some money doing voice-work, also consider looking up dubbing courses etc. - as they can teach you a ton of tricks, old school acting could also, but as you already have a very clear and articulate voice, then it perhaps might not teach you as much (thou it's great fun)

I think you have a good mix of "talking head" and showing what you're talking about, it works 👍

AMD needs to do this Curve Shaper to their GPUs as well. When I had the 7900xtx it could take 1.070v undervolt at max clocks (100% load) 24 7. But at medium loads 2ghz-2.3ghz I crash in games, so I have to give it 1.130v to be stable all around and it's just a loss in efficiency doing so

wait for ryzen 12000 series

They should make it so that 2 vid cards can use the ssd PCIE slots and a link cable such that the vid cards can share their VRAM. sLI like functionalities are problematic for various reasons related to syncing frames or scanlines and framebuffers, but using the secondary vid cards vram as a sort of buffered memory wouldnt have the same issues; it should be faster than transfering down to the RAM, at any rate, and certainly much faster than dumping from and to disk. Past that, the transfer could take place outside the PCIE bus/lanes, which is helpful for high IO tasks (blockchain mining and the like), though normally video games dont need anywhere near the full capability of PCIE 16x within their generation. Even if they end up being that intensive, offering a secondary transfer path would be helpful (think dumping data half and half to each vid card, and then keeping it between the vid cards after that). Also perhaps for various calculations, such as post 3d render effects, the required data could be copied to the second vid card as soon as it is available, which then does the calculation, and sends back the result to the primary vid card. If they primary vid card finishes the 3d state before said results are in, it could just do the calculations itself as the prequisite data would still be there, and post the frame if it finishes, but if the 2nd vid card finishes up before the 1st is done, the first could just abort and present the frame. At the very least, this would reduce frame latency, if not be a major boost to fps. I just want to get use out of my second vid card damnit... it just sits there hoping somehow there is some physx to do, but not many games use that

I was used to no talking head. The talking head feels like lip syncing

Intel here , exe file lives forever I promise

I like any video from you, so talking heads are good enough for me and many others.

Info is info whether you are a talking head or not. I liked the 'podcast' comment below. Keep up the good work!

4:40 - Why can't GPUs use system memory? You know RAM? Your latency will be 50ms.

Mix it up! Keeps things interesting and likely nothing will become monotonous that way. Enjoy your viewpoints and the news you bring is definitely interesting!

I love your "face for radio" man... Keep the talking head videos. And I agree with some of the comments... STOP APOLOGIZING! Just don't have an aneurysm in the middle of the video again and it should be fine!

So with this performance boost we the customer should not buy a 5090 unless there's a 30% increase or more in performance . That's what this video is telling me.

RTX 4090 super, now with 25Gb of VRAM

I don t much care about the clip format. I m here for the aggregated news and comments on it. thanks and keep it up

Imagine 4090 with 128 GBs of VRAM 😍

Why should GPU use NVME for capacity increase when it can access RAM and have 10x more speed for swapping VRAM?

I'm interested in what you're working on - so talking head videos are fine. :-)

I love everything you do

I haven't noticed any difference in the video style.

Talking Heads ..... We're on a road to nowhere. I thoroughly enjoy the talking heads, so I am quite happy with Gamer Meld becoming one as well, as I do the same that @JamieStuff below does. Have a GREAT Day!!

5:32 Nvidia is not going to like this. Jensen said , " The more you buy, the more you save ". He wants you to buy more Nvidia GPU . More specifically, buy more expensive ones from them😄

I don't know about other people who have a 4090, but I don't come close to utilizing any of of the power even playing AAA games 🤷

Please do "Normal Video" back in days

Why is none of the pc sellers offering AMD ? I just checked the major companies. It’s just weird that intel is the only thing offered right now ( I really only want AMD )

For me , more video is better. Short is not a problem at all 😊

Waiting for the 9000 to drop si that the 7800x3d is at cheaper price

iam so really hyped at the apu :D

Presentation style does NOT MATTER

I like All your videos

Addons to gpus we did already back in the days hehe.. So this is coming back ;).. late 90s that is. Some of you were not alive back then but yes.

Finally that adding Ram is real

Here for the info, not the fancy presentation.

Bro I love the so called talking head videos but I will support either way.

NVidea won't like the expanded gpu ram kekw

Thank you for making something for AI. I don't want to go bankrupt for more vram.

"molnster"

Video is nice

iGPU is the ultimate secret weapon for home lab AI. The only problem right now is that they aren't really powerful enough. That's why The M-chip is selling like crazy, because it is kind of powerful enough to train large models that need 100+GB of memory. Which dGPU can't really offer, unless you have like 4+ of the highest end card...... Intel and AMD need to realize that. So True AI for desktop can really happen. NPC or whatever simply can't make the cut.

NVidia's "boost clock" might be the single most meaningless thing ever.

Intel isn't worried in terms of fastest peformace CPU's for consumer platforms. Panther Lake and Beast Lake are just around the corner. Intel Xeon cannot yet match EPYC and Threadripper, Intel needs to seriously take Xeon to the next level, which Sierra Forrest aims to do with a 288 E-core workstation processor. Not that Zen 5 isn't exceptionally impressive as it most certainly is. Intel needs to take notes from AMD extensively on a faster CPU without needing a higher clock speed or power draw. AMD and Apple are crushing Intel on power efficiency. Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake are Intel's attempts to prioritize power efficiency. Intel knows this, Pat Gelsinger knows this, and they have demonstrated in 2024 a dedication to change. Meteor Lake accomplished the same goal. AMD and Intel IMO are now truly neck and neck. NVIDIA is still in a league of their own obviously, Huang Jensen is untouchable.

I'm not going to be much help in deciding which content to make, because I've always enjoyed the content from this channel that I've managed to catch. So I'll simply say please continue to keep making videos when possible, they are enjoyed & appreciated.
