Last generation GamersNexus got a retail chip that they actually bought online from a legitimate online retailer in Europe and had a review up like a week or more before it officially launched. Apparently Intel ‘soft launched’ the product in Germany without any sort of announcement and anybody and everybody could buy the chips weeks before the embargo was officially lifted.

Idea: reach out to the seller and instead of lambasting them, ask them politely for a BIOS file (and mobo model) that works with the ES (they might not be aware of such a limitation, who knows). Then you can compare that BIOS file to the retail version of the same BIOS and do a piece on exactly what Intel is doing to disable QS/ES chips on retail boards.

@ZMacZ 2 жыл бұрын
8:02 The solution is simple (?!?), get an engineering sample mainboard, that has a BIOS that allows ES samples, or use a BIOS flash utiltiy that allows flashing an engineering BIOS update onto the mainboard's BIOS.. Alternately, check the BIOS code for the lock out code and place a JMP instruction at that spot to skip it, then flash the BIOS with it.

While I was hoping it was the latter, I knew the former was more probable.

I owned a QX7E, which is 12900K es2. It works on Gigabyte Z690, using the BIOS that "DOES NOT" support 13th intel core. Updating the BIOS to support 13gen will cause this to not boot up. However, since 12th gen is not released yet, I'm confused why the chip won't work on Linus's PC. All samples before(include some) ES3 won't run the first pciex16.

@@brucepreston3927 Ian brought it up, and Linus went out of his way to say that it doesn't matter and even doubled down on MHz, and then they silently changed it. I'm guessing some people on the staff agreed with Ian, and Linus, being a reasonable adult, agreed to make the change.

Dang.,. I wanted to see how it did. The idea of performance cores and efficient cores makes real sense when you consider the amount of applications that can be running in the background. If the CPU was able to dump all of those background apps to another efficient core and allow all the high performance cores to be used for gaming, it could really make a difference on PCs with lots of crapware.

just a bunch of tech bable to avoid admitting a huge problem with computers now. Syncrousity. You can only perform one task at a time. because of how circuits and timing between going from processing some part of a what needs to attention on the MOBO (lighting cooling blah blah blah) . An Asynchronous set of clocks (able to check core temps at the same time as...anything else. all that unchangeable (immutable stuff) is like a disease now. use all the fancy verbage, spindoctoring "magical feets of engineering" but until such time as all apps are forced to be multithreaded (ie actually use all the gd core on that silicon).untill fucking proper code cooling and gd stack management is a thing again. we won't make a fucking significant dent in the utter. utter shit level of jank computers have. We have MILLES of metal smashed into a small space, and these cockfucking inept trogladites at intel and AMD are going yeah well my clock has 200 hz able with a petillion core intell yeah well we have a bunch of marketing gibberish and fucking cunts. does anyone really thing this " new and better" intel shit with a few more FPS in cinapenile compensator will make your apps actually useable? not a chance in hell.

@@gorkskoal9315 Did you mean Synchronicity? That's a great album. And note I said crapware. Not sure how you got your comment from my comment. That being said, the PS4 had a secondary cpu and memory for background tasks- like downloading/updating games. So it's not like this is totally new ground.

Are there any silicon level repair businesses? I'm thinking from an e-waste perspective, it might be nice to be able to adjust the hardware later in their life if they get damaged or the hardware support changes in software. The amount of energy and emissions baked into anything that uses metallurgical grade silicon is insane and there should be better solutions than shredding them. Maybe upcycling the chips to run at lower frequencies with less power for specialized tasks instead of operating as generalists would be a viable use for them once they become "obsolete".

Hey Linus and the gang at Linus Tech Tips, have you tried using a DDR4 based platform instead of DDR5? According to some of the info floating around regarding ES2 chips: 1) GPU's in the PCIE 5.0 slot won't be recognized (ie. first slot), as current gen GPU's aren't PCIE 5.0. Use alternate slots. (seems like you already tried this?) 2) Something about the memory lock frequency of DDR5 motherboards doesn't currently work with these chips. Not sure exactly what this is referring to, but apparently some MSI DDR5 boards can automatically reduce the frequency of DDR5 memory to start sometimes?

"brick compatibility retail bios".. YES they most likely can miss on older generations like microcodes for the cpu out of BIOS.. so need modify BIOS to include microcodes for engineering sample revisions. I am not anymore up and running with latest but used to be easy trick with right tools.
