Good to see people finally start calling AMD out on this stuff.

Can't wait to see the sequel of this video, after the 9950X releases and the numbers fall short of AMD's contrived benchmarks.

I hate AMD from years of dealing with AMD.

Last time I checked AMD stock is 5x Intel stock.

Must be doing something right.

P/E ratio is really big on amd, so there is a ton of risk.

Hammer on Box had always been top tier for calling out shit like this. They where one of the few places that called for caution when everyone was going nuts over the capacitors on RTX 3080's. Turned out they where right too.

Oh shut up. You really think this is an appropriate response to a video about misleading advertising and benchmark accuracy? Go fanboy somewhere else.

Indeed, this is poor behavior on AMD's part. Given that Intel had thousands of its benchmarks invalidated by the SPEC back in February, for cheating, AMD should really know better.

Intel accused of inflating CPU benchmark results

SPEC says Intel's Xeon processors were using a compiler that artificially inflated the results of its industrial benchmark by as much as 9%.

I guess the "wrong" way of testing is more helpful for me since I'll never have a 7800x3d and rtx 4090...

I don't need to know how a 7800x3d + rtx 4090 performs in games.
I need to know what GPU I should use for my meager 3800x and when a "better" gpu will not help giving any higher fps.

And I want that info placed right in front of me without having to extrapolate things from hardware I don't have or never will have.

AMD marketing is AMD's worse enemy

But that way, you are just benchmarking the GPU. Which is what AMD did here, by using a 6600.

Oh yeah, a stock website contributor, wow

Reading his list of articles and it's basically SELL BEFORE THEY CRASH & BURN every few days.

As if these peoples have your interest in mind, they're propaganda channels in the pockets of hedge funds. When they scream to sell, it's because they want to buy in at a lower price. It's almost always reverse psychology with these peoples.
