I hope you don't have cats!
In this space, it really doesn't matter. Whatever name they choose, it's not really going to spell it out--it just needs to be a unique identifier. Anyone shopping this segment is going to have a product list open and do a lot of cost/benefit measures. Once they pick the winner, it's just a matter of putting the correct model number on the order sheet.
I have "a" cat: a 23 LB, 11month old mainecoon. He's completely harmless around our PCs.
I understand your comment as the PCs in our house are more of an open case design. With the concept of quiet and cool (even under all core load or all GPU load, the fans do spin up but its not unpleasant, most of the tasks don't make things spool up to max
The CPUs are massive, and can generate a lot of heat, but we keep the house between 69-72F, so not an issue.
The new CPUs at 500W....well...I am not sure if I can design an air cooled system. 1000W on one board (before counting a couple of TB of ram, 2 video cards, and the U.2/u.3 drives is a massive amount of energy to dissipate quietly. Its only 200W more than what I'm doing now, but its still at the edge of feasible (quietly). For the prior, the heatsinks had to be heavily edited to retain air cool and be effective.
Would I embark on the highest of the new series? ....I might way to Zen 6
Beyond this CPU step, I would also need a massive increase in other factors such as a worthy GEN 6 and the rest.
While we can argue and postulate and many things on the new CPUs
what I am most impressed with:
A week after Intel's reveal on their new server CPUs
(in a sea of other intel organizational and product woes). WHAM!! --> AMD smacked them back down.
Amazing timing.....
I'd hate to be Patrick at the next board meeting...
