𓀐 @W~FFLzLu: Holy fucking shit. What is this latest latest video by Hardware Unboxed? The last 5 minutes are horrendous. He goes off on a weird tangent as to why he's only testing these specific Ryzen CPUs and how he doesn't have time to add any more to his test (5800X3D, hello?), or because he thinks nobody uses Intel CPUs. WTF? He didn't stop to think people might want to know how the 5070 pairs with a 5800X3D, 5800X, 7500X3D, 7700X3D, 14600K, or 14700K? This video is so fucking bizarre because it's conclusion is basically "if you're on an old CPU, buy this Radeon GPU instead of a better GPU AND CPU" like what the fuck? This feels like blatant Radeon shilling to me.+
