      Honestly my preferred manufacturer since I started putting together my own machines.

      Make sure to get your 5900x3d with your 7900XTX. Note that one is a CPU and the other is a GPU. For extra fun, their numbers should eventually overlap given their respective incrementation schemes. The 5900x3d is the successor to the 5900xd, which is a major step down in performance even though it has more cores.

      I’m gonna give this award to Intel, which has increased the numbers on their CPU line by 1000 every generation since before the 2008 housing crash.

      Just ordered another CPU from them. Downside is that there isn’t any modern AMD desktop platform that works with coreboot, which seems to be the only workable way to deactivate the Management Engine/Platform Security Processor after boot.

      Was really considering to swap to Intel for that, but got a good deal on a Ryzen 9 that fits in my socket, so…

        They had at least two or three halfway sensible naming schemes, which they then proceeded to abandon after like one generation.

        I fault marketing department at the chipmakers that are trying to somehow justify their existence.

          Explain how AMD naming works. I’m so confused as it is pretty hard to understand plus they randomly will violate there own conventions.
