- Who are you and what have you done with AMD?
AMD promised the new 9800X3D would be 8% faster than the previous generation's 7800X3D and 20% faster than Intel's latest high-end chip, the 285K. Independent testing said otherwise. (Tom's Hardware)
Its 15% faster than the 7800X3D and 35% faster than Intel's 285K.
The consistent theme of the reviews on YouTube is RIP Intel. Not something the struggling company needs to be hearing right now.
To be fair, until now AMD's Ryzen 9000 chips have also been met with a resounding meh. But no longer.

Mint and Dokibird have been playing hardcore Minecraft for nine hours now. Calli, IRyS, and Biboo have been playing Space Marine 2.
And Hololive is adding new generations as fast as Nijisanji members can graduate.
hololive DEV_IS FLOW GLOW - the naming scheme is getting out of control - is basically the Gen 8 of the Japanese branch, or in other words, that branch's tenth generation, since the numbering scheme has also gotten out of control.

When I first started watching vtubers, back during the Wuhan Bat Soup Death Plague, there was no Hololive EN, no Nijisanji EN, no Phase Connect or Prism Project. I watched Hololive JP's Haachama and Coco, who spoke English, and Korone, who didn't really but she has so much energy and enthusiasm that it never mattered.
Now there's hundreds of them. I even watched the election results being presented by a vtuber named Kirsche.

Heh, I only read the first two paragraphs of that "TEH VEREG" article and . . . demented screeching is an undestatement. God bless you, those folks's therapists must have one heck of a job.

EVs are still terrible for a lot of US use cases, and 'policy' and 'leadership' were doing nothing to change that, and would have continued to do nothing.
