whoa new processors from Intel how
exciting after that absolute spanking
they got from AMD they've gotta bring
builders back into the third wonder what
these new CPUs can offer you as a DIY
builder let's find out this is DIY and
five hello everyone I'm Trisha
Hershberger and in this video we'll be
going over Intel's
tenth generation CPUs and what this new
tech means for all of you DIY PC
builders at home if you find the tips in
today's video useful please go ahead and
like subscribe and hit the bell so you
don't miss out on any future tech tips
start up your coolers because Intel's
10th gen CPUs are available now offering
not only faster clock speeds but also
better connectivity graphics processing
power and they even have built in
intelligent features to learn and adapt
to how you use your PC to deliver more
power where you need it most with
features like Intel obtain memory Intel
Wi-Fi 6 Thunderbolt 3 technology 4k HDR
and clock speeds up to 5 point 3
gigahertz and the cool codenamed comet
Lake this 10th gen is the creme de la
creme so what does this mean for the DIY
builder
well for starters we'll be getting
faster speeds at better prices the new
i3 essentially has the same specs as the
last four core flagship i7 7700 K from
four years ago
that's nutters we also have hyper
threading which pretty much doubles the
processing threads for a single CPU core
enabled on every new offering that means
whatever price point you're shopping you
can get a hyper threaded CPU also
nutters and frankly it is this nutters
hyper threading tech that allows this
new 10th Chennai 3 to rival the seventh
gen I 7 now the ninth gen Intel CPUs
only had hyper threading Tekin the I 9
processor so why the change of heart
we can probably thank AMD's Rison for
that given the smattering of competition
they've thrown Intel's way with their
latest chipset this is a case where
competition is very good for the
consumer now because these new CPUs are
doing so much more work Intel has opted
to use a thinner die coupled with
soldered thermal inner
base material or stem and a thicker
integrated heat spreader on some of the
higher-end 10th gen cpus translation
better cooling equals improved
performance and more overclocking
potential sounds awesome
so what's the downside for starters if
you want in on the 10th gen CPU action
you'll need to upgrade your motherboard
since we're dealing with a brand new
chip socket the LGA 200 at least you can
still use old LGA 1151 CPU coolers right
small victory a tons of new motherboards
were announced with expanded feature
sets like increased USB 3.2 gen to
support more Thunderbolt ports etc the
one thing you can't get with this new
combo PCIe gen 4 I know some of the new
Z 490 motherboards even support it but
the CPUs don't so it won't help you at
the moment but is a good consideration
for future proofing if you need more
info on PCIe gen 4 feel free to check
out the video we made all about it by
clicking the link in the description
here in the kingston studios we're
playing with the idea of doing our own
build with the gigabyte vision d board
and 10th gen cpus this board is
specifically aimed at creators with a
triple m2 thermal guard front and rear
USB 3.2 gen2 type-c connectivity and
more let us know in the comments if a
bill does that nature is something you'd
be interested in seeing and maybe it can
be a future DIY and five who knows other
cool boards for these new 10th gen CPUs
include mini ITX boards higher
efficiency mobile boards gamer specific
boards etc intel has self-proclaimed
10th gen the world's fastest gaming
processor and I'm just stoked to see if
it lives up to the hype alright I feel
like I have now gone off on a tangent
what are you excited to see in this next
gen of Intel processors and new
motherboards have any of you done a
build with this new tack now that it's
out in the wild let us know in the
comments thanks so much for watching
this episode of DIY and five and I'll
see you next time bye
