What If Zen 2 Actually Sucks?

In some of his recent videos, Scottish YouTuber AdoredTV mentioned that he’s often criticized for having a bias towards AMD. Obviously, he doesn’t believe that to be true, as he has no problem with positivity or negativity towards any manufacturer, but the criticism apparently inspired him to take a look at the potential performance of Zen 2 based on public demos. As we’ve noted before, benchmarks and demos from chip designers need to be taken with a grain of salt, so the YouTuber decided to take a closer look at the claims AMD has made, and the conditions they ran the demos in. Check out the analysis below:
