    Also watch out for AMD’s army of Neanderthal social media accounts on reddit, forums and youtube, they will be singing their own praises as usual.

    Wat

    Fellow AMD Neanderthal Army soldiers: any idea when I get my cool uniform and …paycheck?

    Zen 4 needs to bring substantial IPC improvements for all workloads, rather than overpriced “3D” marketing gimmicks.

    … the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D performs reasonably consistently under varying real world conditions.

    Uhh… Aren’t… Aren’t these two statements kinda contradictory?

      No no, you see; it performs reasonably consistency under varying real world conditions but for a CPU to truly shine it needs to handle all workloads, including unrealistic synthetic ones.
