I thought the Ryzen would be much faster than we see here actually. Atom is the lowest of lowest spec intel cpus, then we have the celerons, pentiums, and then the Intel Core-models. Ryzen is a competitor to Intels Core-models. But anyway, I think the biggest difference in these test is probably that the storage-media for the Ryzen is much faster, since it was only routeplanning that has something todo with computepower. The rest is just loadspeeds.
@@AndrewTSq I would have thought the same but the even the little difference adds up and provides a much better user experience in the end. Also as per many articles, there are have been no reported changes to the flash storage chip and the speed difference you see is purely due to the change in the CPU.
@@EVKiwis Okey. I saw Tesla uses a Ryzen with Zen+ core, which should be something like a Ryzen 3 2200G inside of it, so that explains why its not that much faster. It would be a big big difference if it was Zen3 :) Maybe next years Tesla we can hope =)
@@AndrewTSq Processors can only do so much with poorly performing software. Faster or not, TeslaOS is highly error prone. The amount of updates they've pushing to cars over the last couple years shows nearly everything they've been doing is halfassed and rushed. Spotify for example gives me playback errors 3-4 times a week. I can't say I've received such errors on any other device I've run Spotify on.
Mark you’re definitely more fortunate than I am. Have had to reboot a few times especially after the v11 upgrade which has been relatively buggy so far
Would love to see a comparison where you can see the performance when scrolling on apps (Netflix, RU-vid). I don't mind how long it takes to start up, but sometimes scrolling on RU-vid or Netflix is really laggy on the Intel processor.
I will have that in the coming weeks as in order to conduct that test properly, I've ordered the Dragy GPS Performance Box which would give us controlled and much more accurate times for a fair test. It's currently on the way and should hopefully arrive soon 🙂 Yes they are both standard range and LFP batteries so will be an apples to apples comparison.
Everything else I can deal with, but the time to load and the responsiveness of RU-vid and Netflix during browsing or video playback is just ridiculous. It can't help but seem like Tesla went out of their way to make it as slow and laggy as possible on the Intel atom.
So basically... There isnt much difference. The biggest difference is only in the loading times on apps that have no correlation with the driving experience such as youtube and netflix. Everything else is fairly similar
Yeap absolutely! It really depends on your use case if you will feel a noticeable difference or not. Some people may never touch resource heavy entertainment apps in which case the Intel chip still works perfectly fine 🙂
I think the s Processing speed applies to things like collision avoidance and stuff under the covers which is important but that a user may not regularly interact with
@@Retro110 Yep agreed but from what I've read, Tesla has a completely different computer/chip for controlling the driver assistance features. This AMD Ryzen upgrade is only controlling the entertainment and user interactional elements of the software.
@@EVKiwis Yeah for the GPU I believe it might the 6600 XT chip but for processor I can't really find anything. If it is the same system as in the PS5 it might be ryzen 7 inside possibly the 3800
Yeah same sadly I couldn't find any more info on this too. When the new Model S and X came out, they did say it was the same performance as the PS5 so it might indeed be the 3800 but haven't come across any concrete evidence for this.
There’s less ram in the Ryzen. It would be interesting to see a recent test as I believe earlier last year there was a big update that enabled hardware acceleration on the atom freeing up cpu resources by at least 50%.
The 'every second helps' comment you're adding every time the AMD narrowly beats the intel, is nauseating. It's fine to say there's not much difference..
There have been rumours of Tesla creating their own CPUs which will most probably be ARM based so very likely they will transition to that in the future sometime. Wouldn't hold my breath as to when that happens as everything famously runs on "Elon time" lol.
The performance on the new AMD CPU is pretty good as Tesla controls the hardware and software integration pretty well so they don't always need the best CPU I guess.
They'll never offer a retrofit. Upgrades aren't just with the CPU, the car's architecture changed. It went from a 12v system using a Lead Acid battery to a 16v system using a lithium battery with BMS management etc.
Dude, I know AMD is faster but if you are logged into RU-vid account it will load a lot slower than if you are not! so the correct comparison would be either you log into both or you log out of both!
That’s an excellent point mate but I did try running the tests in both states and the results were consistent regardless of being logged in or logged out at least at my end. Maybe caching has any effect on this 🤷♂️
As per many articles, there are have been no reported changes to the flash storage chip and the speed difference you see is purely due to the change in the CPU...
ARM would definitely have benefits of reducing the power consumption so they may consider it in the future if it's easy enough to transition their existing codebase I suppose.
Virtually all modern cars with touchscreens use a ARM SoC. Wouldn't you agree those are a lot slower than this? It's possible a faster arm processor can be produced, and I'm sure you're drawing from apples M1 processor family, but realistically Apple doesn't license their designs out for other companies. so what other options do car manufacturers have when clearly snapdragon processors are musch slower than Ryzen processors. Also apples M1 processors aren't as capable in gaming/3d rendering despite their deceptive performance charts. So there would always be trade-off.
@@rahhjur There are rumours that Tesla is going to follow Apple's footsteps and create their own in-house processor in the future... So I'm sure we would be able to get much faster and power efficient CPUs in the coming years
