      This is why the US government and others do not allow monopoly's. Once you become on top and kill off or buy the competition it allows the company to relax in innovation and overcharge the consumer. I feel there should be a third CPU maker I mean technically there is ARM but they pretty much allow anyone to license their designs. Elon should start a CPU and GPU company he would benefit from it. He is already using custom chips for Tesla AutoPilot from the current suppliers that make them. He pretty much killed or slowed any satellite provider cause companies refuse to innovate anymore. Just like he killed ULA with spaceX. The real problem is everyone is content on earth happy with what they have or trying to get. Could you imagine being born in the early 1900's watching stuff evolve at a fast pace then in the 2000's everything has hit a brick wall.

      That happened when CPU makers discovered they couldn't make huge steps in clock speed anymore after about 3 to 4Ghz. So they had to come up with something. New, more efficient CPU architectures don't come overnight so they started adding cores and threads to increase performance.

So, please, stop using this as a valid argument because you can give people a false impression about upgradability with this statement. Also if you buy a cheap motherboard, you're not even sure if your MB will even support the upcoming chip even if it is in the same socket. In that case your best bet is making a custom firmware/bios upgrade if the manufacturer didn't (and I would just recommend not underspending on a motherboard for this reason alone). Really stop using this as a valid argument, this doesn't really hold out anymore in this day and age (not like it used to some 15+ years ago).
      If you are running a good intel based PC right now, it's probably not even worth upgrading to 5000 series because of the upcoming zen 4 (which most likely sports a new socket). If you already have a beast of an intel machine, you're definitely not going to notice anything in most games except for an inflated FPS number.

    My childhood PC was a Athlon 64 X2. It was pretty slow in my memory because it was the "family PC" which means its full of virus. But I began my journey in computer hardware from there and performed my first Windows reinstall on that PC. It ran great afterwards. I spent many hour in GTA SA on the machine, and its always gonna be a part of me despite it died a few years ago.

    When you consider the fundamentals of processing capacity over speed it makes sense AMD are leading today.

    Bad scripted video:
    how you can tell if a channel is yeah in bed with Intel?
    emphasize the negatives of AMD old cpus vs intel ones A LOT many times and with specific vibrant tone, expression, then pass fast all the AMD CPUs that kicked Intel for years in the balls like Athlon x64, don't mention that AMD was the first that did x64 for years vs Intel and multicore CPUs again ahead of Intel, until Core2Duo when they had completion, downplay all those years, and then go back to emfasize the bad FX bulldozer series but mentioning the "superiority" of greedy Intel and they quadcore cpus...and finally talk about Zen once and not mentioning Z2 and z3 that is kicking Intel to the ground for years now in performance, consumption and sales. But for the bad FX we even put a sinking ship.... yeah.
    nice script guys!
    LTT fan boys you can attack as much as you like and tell me the bs excuses about giving the blue few hard videos, but you don't know that they get paid every time they mention the word "intel"!. They promote Intel even by talking "harshly a bit" to them or not emphasizing AMD superiority. His real character and enthusiasm is only in some unscripted videos where they build AMD servers. There you see an honest Linus, not a "bussiness" in bed with Intel.

    My first pc was a 486. I delivered papers for about 2 years to buy that thing. 33mhz/ 100mhz with the turbo button on, 4 mb of ram running Norton commander :) Later in life I also had an Athlon 2 and a phenom 2 1100t black that I rocked all the way up to when ryzen came out, and on my second ryzen chip for a couple of years now. I have had a good time with AMD through the years.

    Omg techquickie plz help... sometimes when my phone drops from 5g to 4g signal all I have to do is hit airplane mode off and on and it will go to 5g again but for some reason sometimes it just won't no matter how many airplane modes it just stays in 4g mode even tho you know for certain 5g is in your location... and this is where my question is as it has come to my alarm that on occasion when the phone just won't go to 5g and I forcibly try airplane mode over and over the phone will then seemingly get locked into this mode where the 5g or 4g symbol displaying the signal strength will simply become this light pastel grey colored font rather than its normal bold and then no matter what I do it just won't connect to any internet or offer me the user any single way from the settings to make my phone go from the grayed out form of the internet and I'm left just smashing my phone into a wall like it were a useless 1k brick seemingly entirely at the mercy of the service provider to decide when and if my device can be allowed receive the non greyed out form of signal connection to the internet, what can I do from my end to reclaim power as a user to stop this?
    Is there a better way to force my phone to be in 5g mode?

    Something you could have covered slightly better was the "deal". AMD licenses the X86 instruction set from Intel, which is what allowed them to keep making X86 based CPUs. But, on the flip side, Intel licenses the x64 instruction set from AMD. I don't know the numbers, but I'm absolutely sure the license fees nullify each other. But it's somewhat hilarious that either side could pull their contract and absolutely cripple the other.
