Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
Fact: Some Intel CPUs dont have their names on them
wery smooth Andy, very Painless… LOL
Imaging US government sending Top secret Weapons to China expecting them to not be copied sold reverse engineered.
I respect your perspective on Taiwan, but how does Hainan Island get seperated as well?
Chisel corners and use the CPU as Shuriken.
I have 12900K QXJE ES2.
It works on GIGABYETE Z690 UD DDR4.
just by being used to it i would ve said a, b and c sample to the different stages of the engineering samples… (with d sample occassionally being used to denote that something is essentially zero day retail stuff)
when the paperweight isn't even a good paperweight lol
You bought it from
WISH?
To be clear you are not expacting us to like videos in which you are being scamed with a not working cpu thats would be bad … i guess .
what a load of crap. If the ME is the issue, disable it or edit the firmware and reflash it. These newbs are 1 step above skript kiddies
Terra Incognito and the Bleeding Edge of the PC experience. What could possibly go wrong?
lol whats what you get for buying from china
Sure, buy a "Made in China" if you like being recorded by the Chinese goverment. Find their website, and find out what you really consent to, by using the webcam!
Hey Linus and the gang at Linus Tech Tips, have you tried using a DDR4 based platform instead of DDR5?
According to some of the info floating around regarding ES2 chips:
1) GPU's in the PCIE 5.0 slot won't be recognized (ie. first slot), as current gen GPU's aren't PCIE 5.0. Use alternate slots. (seems like you already tried this?)
2) Something about the memory lock frequency of DDR5 motherboards doesn't currently work with these chips. Not sure exactly what this is referring to, but apparently some MSI DDR5 boards can automatically reduce the frequency of DDR5 memory to start sometimes?
Linus: anybody who deals in these chips is shady
Also Linus: buys these chips, supports the market for them, and uses them to create profitable content
7:28 Alternate universe Anthony casually staring at prime Anthony
“I do it for you!”…
And not the ridiculous overhead I will make from this video.
Need mod bios with older version of Intel ME
Enclose it in a block of resin. It will at least be an effective paperweight.
Try with MSI Z690 DDR4. Should work :). Also no iGPU in this CPU.
God damn the management engine
Ahaha… slips into an engineers pocket and ends up on the black market.
It's Chinese Craigslist, as if Craigslist wasn't bad enough.
没板子拿来当钥匙扣么 (Got no motherboard? What are ya gonna do with it, make it a keychain?)
还是闲鱼牛逼啊
gimme 12900k
Anything from Chinese sellers is crap. Period!
They rip you off with a smile on their face and laugh at you when you ask for a refund.
Scammed on Chinese craigslist. Yeah, water is wet.
Thats a 700 dollars keychain
8:02 The solution is simple (?!?), get an engineering sample mainboard,
that has a BIOS that allows ES samples, or use a BIOS flash utiltiy that allows flashing an engineering BIOS update onto the mainboard's BIOS..
Alternately, check the BIOS code for the lock out code and place a JMP instruction at that spot to skip it, then flash the BIOS with it.
It's not like Linus didn't know ahead of time that it probably would not work. At least I know where to go if I want to be cheated.
1:30 Clean the connections with some alcohol plz. You should know by now that these are not supposed to be touched by fingers with both the acid and skin grease on them..
Damn. I didn't know there was anything Anthony couldn't get working.
hahah. and u release this the DAY before the non-discosure ends? linus …..
Drill a hole in the side and turn it in to a key chain.
Ugh. Intel and the dreaded NDA. Sorry for your pain and financial loss. Appreciate the effort tho.
Cast it in resin to make it heavier and give it to Linus as a Christmas present!
I suppose the fact that I've been busy for a week and I'm watching this on November 9th makes this kind of less impactful.
You could hack the BIOS and downgrade the ME firmware to a compatible version. Likely any Chinese boards will have done this already 🙂
Wait wait wait… engineering sample motherboard next 👀
