didn't she say that server and mobile chips are coming?

wait until the end of the year fgt
Do we trust them?
are they open source?

No, we don't trust.
This is for all the Intel shills comparing Ryzen to Bulldozer. Why don't we do just that, with the numbers we now have?
The 8150 was 67% the single core speed of an i5 2500K, and the 8150 was more expensive.
The R7 1800X has 5% MORE single threaded instructions per clock than Broadwell-E, which is still the top Intel processor. The R7 costs 1/4 of the Intel chip.
Yes, AMD has moar cores than comparably priced Intel chips. But unlike Bulldozer, these are full cores with their own pipelines and FPU.
Ryzen has one major disadvantage, it runs AVX2 instructions at half speed. Consumer software however almost never uses AVX2, and GPUs handle AVX-style workloads better anyways. Maybe this will be a problem for datacenters?
Going into the next few years, Ryzen is a major advantage for AMD: it's a fresh, new, unoptimized architecture. Intel is still pushing Skylake optimizations and their basic architecture dates to P6. Their hyperthreading implementation is based on the Pentium 4. AMD's SMT is significantly more efficient.
Finally, Bulldozer was priced like shit. It cost more than the same performance from Intel. With Ryzen, comparable performance is cheaper at every SKU.
Ryzen compared to Intel chips, single core. Note this earlier test had Ryzen turbo disabled. See the difference, how Ryzen compares to i7s versus how the 8150 compared to the 2500K?

Looking at it now the 8350 wasn't that bad if the price was right.
>>59066426
It wasn't a terrible budget chip, especially if you got one that could OC well. It just was never good enough to justify over an i5.
I know this is probably a stupid question, but what type of computer (preferably a laptop) does a finance major use or should use?
I'll be a first year student getting my BS in Finance-Financial Planning and I would like to replace this hunk of shit Dell with something more powerful.
I really don't want the new MBP. Looks tacky as fuck and I'm not a graphic design or art student. I want something professional yet a powerhouse.
I was thinking towards MSI or Origin. But suggestions are welcome.
>>59066342
gee if only there was a board dedicated to requests ...
>>59066342
Are you people just dumb or do you not understand how the world works?!
Intel had no fucking reason to price their CPUs lower because they had zero competition.
AMD just poked the Intel bear.
You guys have no idea whats going to come.
Intel is going to 8 x AMD performance at 2x the price and AMD will fad away just like they did in the early 2000's.
Fucking idiots lmao.
>unironically assuming Intel puts out the best they have at the most competitive price they can offer without any competition
WEW .... 4th grade must be a struggle for you idiots.
why does this board get flooded with shitposting when a big event happens?
>>59066299
AMD BTFO
>>59066314
its not shitposting
look im glad that AMD finally puts up some competition because in the end WE AS THE CONSUMERS are the ones who benefit from healthy competition
its just laughable to me that people think Intel will go bankrupt because some pajeets who work for AMD put something together that doesnt fall apart instantly ... for the first time in 15 years or something lol
I hope Intel MURDERS AMD and we get even better Intel CPUs at a lower price
why not?!
Why isn't your favorite company a Platinum member of the Linux Foundation? Doesn't it care about freedom? Why did you let this happen?
>>59066265
What the fuck is a favourite company?
> Facebook paid just for gold.
stinky bastards.
>>59066284
was about to ask the same thing. I mean there are a lot of nice products out there but liking a product doesn't justify calling the producer your "favorite company". that's BS. just look at the fucking platinum and gold members. some of the most vile companies are among those
It looks beautiful.
you know what they say about CPUs with long dies

Redpill me about the QX9650, /g/
>>59065937
get a modded xeon instead, it's cheaper
>>59066107
But I wanna be one of the cool kids.
>>59066107
This
you can also get xeons with a lower tdp at a relatively small expense of frequency (QX9650: 3GHz/130W; E5440: 2.83 GHz/80W)
Hi /g/, I'd like to know your thoughts on something.
For work about 4 years ago I was given a Macbook Pro that runs OSX 8.5 (Mountain Lion) which I never bothered to upgrade. Now, plenty of programs are no longer supported (Chrome, Firefox etc.) so I'm thinking I should upgrade.
I know very little about Macs so I'm worried I'll get fucked over by all of Apple's bullshit if I upgrade. Is it worth it and are there any risks? How much bullshit does the latest OSX contain? Will it slow down this laptop to a crawl?
>>59065928
wipe drive 35 times to wipe the fagness into oblivion and install gentoo.
>>59066040
You know I'd much rather do something """like""" that, but since it technically belongs to my work place, I can't do anything too drastic.
>>59065928

Found your problem.

people are overreacting.
Just posting stocks without any accompanying information is oversimplifying things

Finally, someone with a good opinion.
How long have you been programming?
been learning python for a few months and i still can't do much.
>>59065644
what have you learned in python? don'ttell me you fell for the machine learning meme
Years
>>59065644
Too long.
Wow Ryzen can't even beat Intel's last gen processors.
Total garbage as expected.
not even mexican field workers pick cherries this hard
>>59065591
>the 3.3GHz Ryzen engineering sample wrecks the 6950X's shit in his own cherrypicked benchmark
lol
>>59065591
Agreed, who cares about which one's cheaper? We need innovation one that can be the fastest in this day
