>Zen gets hyped by AMD fags
>It will probably perform as well as an Ivy Bridge i5 CPU at best
AMD, if you don't deliver, like you haven't in the last 10+ years, it's over. You may as well cry to the court system and sue intel to try and salvage what's left of the CPU market.
I still won't buy Intel

I'm hoping for the best, but prepared for the worst. I've never had an AMD CPU in any of the machines I've built (for the record, I've only been building them since I graduated from college back in 2010, so long after AMD's days of being the performance king) but I am rooting for Zen.
I'd love an 8-core CPU with similar performance to Intel's E-CPUs, and if they can sell that 8-core for the same price or less as Intel's 6-core E-CPU, there's a very good chance I'll be using it for my next desktop rebuild.
you can't rush art OP

AMDrones hyped Polaris too, this shouldn't surprise you. At least Nvidiafags and Intelfags were divided about Pascal and Skylake, but those unconscionable reds will worship any scrap metal that gets thrown their way.

Even if it is only as good as an i5 that's still good enough to run every game out there right now.

This, desu.
I have both amds and intels, but the intel fucks can at least admit when something is awful or not worth it.

>I refuse to buy the superior product
It's fags like you that keep AMD's failtrain going

AMD is in full on desperation mode right now.
The AMDtards can't afford to have ANY sort of bad talk about their products because they have zero room to fail.
