Remember: the SUX 3141 Ti is 60% slower than the SUX 3141 Xt. because it's 5 years older and has no components in common.

    Power consumption is part of the equation now too. You’ll often see newer generation hardware that has comparable performance to a last gen model but is a lot more power efficient.

      Or you’ll see something equally efficient and equally performing at the same power levels…except you’ll see newer gens or upgraded skus allowed to pull more power

        Is it not still “higher better” at AMD? With the obvious X or “m”, but usually price reflects the specs when the numbers are the same.

      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…

        Is there anything from the last 10 years that runs coreboot?

          Yeah, actually.

          They want you to fork over some cash for the most current binaries, though.

          You can of course just build it from source.

          The most current AMD Boards that are supported are FM2+. I actually have an FM2+ processor flying around somewhere, an Athlon II X4 860K, but that thing uses a lot of power for not very much performance.

            Oh is this a different project to libreboot?

              Yeah, it’s a different coreboot fork. They seem to be kinda focused on selling their implementation to corporate users, but if that finances open source development, I’m not gonna complain.

    I always go by the rule of the larger the number/more letters the better. The exception being M that usually means it’s made for mobile devices.

    I just go by PassMarks rating for CPU and GPU. It may not be the most nuanced rating, but it does give numbers that can be easily compared.

    They periodically run out of integers so they have to reuse old ones.

      I just have a conversation with someone at microcenter and double check what’s said. Is there a chance I’m getting scammed? Yeah, but I keep getting pretty good machines for the price/effort.

    Naming conventions are somewhat consistent; it’s the pricing that has gotten a bit out of hand.
