AMD 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper Teaser Trailer
If you watched the Computex live stream, AMD announced their 2nd gen Threadripper based on ZEN+ with up-to 32-cores and 64 threads. In that live presentation, they showed a video introducing the new series. That 'Heavy metal' teaser video is now online to watch (if you wanted to do so), here you go.

That is like the best teaser for a CPU I've ever seen... it might also be the only one?

Who exactly is the target demographic in this? Seems like it's targeted toward teenage boys, but they're not the type of people who could afford something like this.

What kind of thinking is this?
Are you saying these types of videos should be deadly serious with people in suits babbling some marketing bullshit?
You aren't making any sense.

Naw, they really didnt.
I guess since it was a cheesy 90s feel of metal and metallica, its supposed to only appeal to teenage boys, to those with that nonsense, go be a basement dweller again.
Personally I thought it was great in a cheesy way.

Uh... no? You can make something exciting or interesting without using cheesy graphics and a handful of subjective descriptions...
What doesn't make sense is how you think people in suits is the only alternative.

The ad was clever, nothing more of less.
Relax everyone. Good lord do we need to over analyse everything?

I am happy to be a metalhead and I haven't been a teenager for nigh on 2 decades. The trailer was a little cheesy but not at all teenager oriented in my opinion.
