It remembers me good old days of frying..

my pan is ready 🙂 AMD was great too - for smoke signaling:) I guess that master chielf Jensen could make special about in full leather with leather hosen..

There was a time when that would have instantly destroyed the CPU, with a resulting very loud pop. I used to build computers for a living, so ask me how I know this!!!

How time have changed. I remember how much damage that would cause a CPU in the olden days. This is some damn good thermals and other protections that this CPU has. Nice job AMD.

Glad we finally have good intelligent chips that can protect themselves and run on the edge of performance.

I think people here are missing the point.... CPUs from nearly 20 years ago could thermal throttle their performance to prevent cooking themselves alive. The thing that's impressive here is that a single naked chip can run Crysis pretty smoothly. This would be a lot less impressive if there was a discrete GPU.

Wow that was neat. Seriously that the CPU can run a pretty heavy game, without a GPU and without a CPU cooler is freaking cool. Pun intended.

This will be a big help to the folks who can't figure out how to properly apply thermal paste.

Bloody hell, it even runs it more smoothly than my old desktop (only slightly, but still).

It's cool. It also means "just get the cheapest one without the heatsink, save-up and get a good heatsink later on..." advice will be a thing in the future.

great news, DerBauer made a ryzen video about that a few months ago, intel downclocked and undervolted while amd was keeping an ultra high voltage became too hot to be useable
this means they started working on fixing my main complaint about current amd, the way it idles and handles low usage

It's really cool that you can see the individual parts of the die just from the different heat signatures they give off. Almost mesmerising!

iirc even a core 2 duo can throttle down and shutdown if the temp gets too high
