Clearly you weren't around during bulldozer.
The bulldozer hype started with massive hype "intel killer", etc. But then leaks came out and it was garbage and the reaction was "b-b-but it's just a engineering sample" and "implying this is legit".

Then bulldozer came out and it was worse than the leaks.
>>
If anyone in the thread truly believes their position, you could always take this to the markets and either have a bullish or bearish position on AMD stock. Personally, I'd just ride the hype wave and get off early before things get too shaky. If it fails, then you got out early, if it succeeds well you may have missed some gains, but at least you are still green.

Fanboys were hyping Bulldozer, AMD wasn't.
AMD gave a HotChips presentation on the Bulldozer arch a full year before it was released. They admitted there was some serial performance regressions, talked about how they needed to focus on increasing clocks to gain serial throughput. It was pretty explicit. The only one really blowing smoke up anyone's ass was JF-AMD on various forums, and he was nothing but a marketing schlub.

Not at all comparable to Zen. Zen is a big core comparable to intel's latest arch in near everything but size of the FPU.
Zen has been tested by independent reviewers already who confirmed its performance. CanardPC has had a published review of a Ryzen ES for weeks. There aren't any major surprises left here.

Honest question

How important is multicore with current or near future game engines? I need to make a decision buying either a 7700k or 1700x within the next month as i have my dan a4 sfx arriving. What do
>>
>>58941196
There are plenty of games out there that benefit from having 6-8 cores, but they're not pulling ahead by a huge degree. The biggest impact they have is in providing higher minimum frame rates during intense scenes.
A high clocked 4 core CPU is still decent enough, particularly if it has 8 threads, I wouldn't invest in an i5 right now.
>>
>>58941196
Multicore, Intel is moving to hex cores being standard in about 8 months.
>>
>>58941213

>>58941239
I doubt a new chip with two more cores would have the same pinout as current quad core Skylake and Kaby Lake chips. It'd probably be on a new socket.

OP's benchmark is great, but the 1700x is OC'd while the 6950x not. 1Ghz the difference.

That being said I'm more interested in 1600x (6c/12t) at sub $300.

I don't think AMD will beat Intel in performance, but with budget. I mean finally you can buy a proper 6 core CPU for a great price.

>1Ghz the difference.
If that Ryzen chip really is running at 4ghz, then the difference in clockspeed is only 500mhz. The Broadwell-E i7 6950X will run at 3.5ghz on all cores.

I am running Intel core i3-2120 3.30GHz (2 cores 4 threads)
If I upgrade to Ryzen 1700X will I see any difference in compiling times?
>>
>>58941333
You must compare the 6950x to the 3.4ghz zen. 6950x runs also around 3.4-3.5ghz.

So, as far as cards to pair with Ryzen, guess the 480 is the "best" option at the moment?

I'm guessing yes. I have one of those, and although they were good for the price at the time, new processors are way more efficient. The thing is, i don't think you need that good of a processor for compiling, unless you need every second and have the money to spare.

>>58944812
Feel free to fuck off to /v/ if you want to discuss the merits of the game itself. This is a technology board and the underlying engine is perhaps the most scalable and forward-thinking yet seen in a video game, which makes it interesting.

>>58944837
Keep in mind that this is completely maxed out, beyond even the game's ultra setting (which doesn't turn on several options, including extended distance scaling). I don't know why people think engines designed to push past the limits of current hardware are a bad thing.

People lament the original Crysis as the kind of boundary-pushing PC game that doesn't get made any more. Yet every time a hugely-demanding game comes along, people bitch because their 660 Ti won't run it maxed out at 120fps.

>>58944847
The game scales down extremely well to lesser hardware. I pirated it and can run it a solid 60fps with my three year old 290X with a handful of the more advanced options turned off/down (and no MSAA of course). It still looks great.
>>
I expect the 1700x to be about $100 more expensive than a 7700k. While the 7700k will still be the gaming performance king. Reason to get ryzen will be lots of cores for less money.

We can argue all we want but graphics cards will still more important for games.
>>
>>58944878
>Yet every time a hugely-demanding game comes along
because they're not doing anything that some shitty $200 gpu isn't capable of maxing out already.
crysis was amazing visually and engine wise as the closest thing to the realism and destruction was bad company 2 which looks like an n64 title compared to crysis. (and there still are some retarded design flaws preventing it from running well on most modern hardware today)

tl;dr devs are lazy cunts.

>>58945272
they'll rear their heads again when AMD decides SMT is not enough
The cores themselves were pretty good, just their branch predictor would shit the bed often and when it did, the cache was slow and too high of latency to re-feed the cores, even long after the rest of the core was redesigned it was still too slow.
>>
>>58945354
Yes
Yes, 28nm to 14nm was a good sized jump
Well yeah at the core it's still centered around 16 wide SIMD clusters in groups of four with a shared cache and scheduler. Enough of the render output processors, geometry pipeline, and memory controllers changed that they can be classified as different architectures.
Their performance is not identical, the RX 480 is arguably bandwidth limited, with a 256 bit bus. Even with the DCC implementation added in GCN 1.2, it's enough to keep its performance down. In times where it isn't limited by bandwidth it outperforms a 390X.
Yeah everyone who says it's a rebrand is infact retarded.

>>58945422
Yeah as long as FX wasn't given branches it was pretty much fine. People god damn love their if elses though.

Wonder if we'll ever see a return of Itanium's branch "prediction", it'd go down both paths simultaneously and then drop a path when the condition resolved.
>>
>>58945480
>Their performance is not identical
>same min/max/avrg frames per second in real world tests
here are two eggs, they contain the exact same amount of nutrients and total weight, but i'll tell you they taste different because i painted the shells differently.
no way is it a rebrand anon, it just tastes the same and leaves you feeling filled exactly as the other one does.
no way in hell are they the same though. nope nope nope. rebranding doesn't happen, especially not for my super cool technologically advanced eggs.
never in the pc industry has anyone ever rebranded anything.
ever.
>>
>>58945604
frametimes, framedrops, tesselation handling, ROP throughput, pixel and shader engine throughput are all different for the 480

Please try to do 32x tesselation on anything older than it and tell me how it goes for you. Hell, even 16x.
>>
>>58945604
Things having the performance of previous things while being completely different is common in computers mate. The 7750 and 5770 had nearly identical performance in games, but would you say the 7750 was a rebrand despite being a completely different architecture that used much less power on a smaller process node?

But then there is the 6770, that was quite literally a rebrand of the 5770, same core, same codename, same frequency, same performance. You could crossfire a 5770 and 6770 together even. That's a rebrand.
>>
>>58942239
You are correct, they would more likely use AMD64, A.K.A. x86_64, not an outdated 32-bit x86...

Its not just game engine scaling, its system resources. If you have only a dual core chip doing anything in the background (or even background OS tasks because lol windows) eat into resources you'd want for da vidya.

Its why with the huge amount of cache and threads MOAR COARS offers you can do a lot more without your cpu dying a painful death the second you try to play anything intensive.

Aight niggas I got a question.

My old i7 920 lets me enjoy games with my rx480, but I'm crazy CPU bottlenecked.

Should I bother throwing a Xeon x5650 and Overclock it? My 920 is a space heater running at 3.6 or 3.8 when it turbos. I FINALLY turned HT on because it helps in shit like hitman DX12.

So Xeon x5650 and stay with this motherboard thats missing SATA3, though I don't really need it?

Or wait for Zen. Anyone able to tell me if the x5650 will give me enough of a boost in single core performance once i've got it overclocked? Should go to 4.0 easily since its 32nm vs my 45nm furnace I'm running now.

I'm in Florida so the ambient temp is allready high, It'll idle at like 55 degrees. Need to dial in my voltages though.

Speaking of AMD BTFOing... i can't help but feel that Vega is going to be Polaris's replacement instead of their high end card at this point in Polaris's lifespan.

Then again depends how scalable Vega's architecture is.
>>
>>58951201
They have an ace up their sleeve.
Vega can execute two instructions every clock, twice the throughput per CU of any prior GCN arch, and it clocks higher than all other designs as well.
Vega will be exactly like Zen. Tease some modest performance figures, let fanboys argue over some low clocked early engineering samples, then release a part with higher performance than the competition expected by a long shot.

>>58951256
I wouldn't doubt we'll see at least something on the table with Polaris-based architecture in the future. As it stands now it's a carefully crafted design for maximum yields under a very flexible power window. The fact lauch chips were basically running extremely close to the minimum specification and only recently see more OC-capable chips in the wild is proof of this. It suggests the higher binned offerings once exclusive to OEM's are trickling down to us and that they can pull an exception amount of imperfect yet still acceptable chips from a single wafer.

With some further updates, a less conservative minimum specification, and a higher CU count they could make a gtx 1070-level "big" polaris/polaris 1.1. It'd make for an excellent replacement in the same price range.

Though if Vega proves to be as scalable in its basic foundation as GCN 1 has proven to be, they may very well just cut it down to fill lower tiers. We won't really know until more details surface but we already know GCN has been an undeniably well designed and flexible arch and 1.3 could still hold its own for the foreseeable future.

I just want to throw this out there but even the difference between a 7700 and 6900 in single thread is 16.5%

Depending on AVX and some other factors and we'll still be seeing a 20%+ performance deficet per thread from AMD. So if your chasing 6900/6950 great but this is a win only in price (which is no small matter!)

I'm still hyphy but this is no Athlon/P4 redux.

Good thing overclocking is ridiculously easy.
Quad cores are pretty much irrelevant now for anything but entry level desktops.

Both AMD and intel have higher core count enthusiast tier hardware, productivity workloads favor more threads, even tons of games do now. With Coffee Lake intel is even bringing 6 cores to their mainstream product line, so you won't need an i7E if you want 6c/16t. Basically the era of the quad core ends in 2017.
They're no longer quad cores, they're quad poors.

Don't be a quad poor owner.
>>
>>58952084
Most people don't overclock, most want their investment to be working as long as possible.

And your "quad core" entry level schpeel is still just at the meme stage. It'll happen but not for a few years yet.

And only a few types of productivity favor many core design, most productivity done on PCs could be done on a fast single core.

It's exciting and it's the future but this is a win for value more than anything else. Let's see if they can keep it up a cycle or two. Then we might see some real moves but for now this is just catch up and doesn't exactly set the world on fire for people who are not focused on gaymes and video encoding (not everything can be parallelized after all).

Looking at numbers... 2c/4c 4t to 8t stuff are priced lower at about the same rate that their performance will be lower

There's an edge in power efficiency which is great but unless your going to spending hundreds and hundreds on a CPU it's still an uphill battle for AMD to gain mainstream market share.

Intel is still superior. It just feels solid and something worth using, whereas AMD feels like trash. Benchmarks aren't everything.

Besides, Intel has better single-threaded performance still and that's what almost every single game depends on. Games aren't multithreaded. Only professionals and servers need that. 4 cores is more than anyone needs, and the GPU does the rest.

And Intel system is easier on your other components too, whereas AMD may cause serious glitches and other problems, because everyone makes sure their hardware and drivers work on Intel.

>what is velocity vs cfm

The wraith cooler uses the relative pressure differential between the narrow space below the heatsink and the above the fan to its advantage. By restricting the relative intake perimeter (that may be the wrong word but fuck it) with respect to the relative output, it induces a gain in velocity.
Air multipliers in mine shafts and intake runners in cylinder heads of engines designed for low-end toque use similar principles.

The end result is so long as the air isn't saturated with heat potential, the fact it moves it at a higher velocity (effectively "faster" than a tower cooler with equal pressure differential, that is) means it can perform satisfactorily TO A FAULT. At stock speeds it can keep the processor cool at a low dB level despite the fan and heatsink disadvantage. With higher tdp it would reach a point where the trend would drop tremendously, but it's "good enough" or even "quite good" for a stock cooler.

Not true. For example John Fruehe from AMD was hyping Bulldozer on multiple internet forums under nick JF-AMD and much of the Bulldozer hype news in media originated from his forum posts.

Considering consoles have lots of low clocked cores, game engines will thoroughly split workloads across all cores. The good engines like Frostbite already do

>>58941213
Not that early, also hex will be anything but standard. Enthusiast, yes. Not standard. Retarded post.

>>58941239
They won't. Hex won't be here until the 10nm die shrink. Definitely on a new socket. However, a 4c / 8t CPU on whatever socket you have now will be great.

>>58941389
Fuck yes.

>>58941531
Either 6GB 1060 or 4GB 480. They are equivalent. You pay slightly more for the extra RAM with the 1060, which might allow for some pretty textures in some games.

>>58944721
Good example, now let's hope devs can figure out how to hit 60FPS on an 8t CPU with good single core perf.

>>58944812
Who fucking cares? The engine is under discussion, you fucking vee retard

>>58944948
>the 7700k will still be the gaming performance king
Yeah, king, but for an extra $150 for 5FPS. Not worth it in the slightest, especially in upcoming games where both CPU will be running the game at over 60FPS.

Having said that, gaming benches haven't come out for Ryzen yet. We can only hope.

>Phenom
>Fucking A

Nope, nope and nope. Original Phenom fell far short of the performance promises and had the infamous TLB bug which crippled it even further.

AMD marketing went full retard and claimed Intel Core 2 Quads weren't real quad cores because they were two dual cores on same package while Phenom X4 was a single chip quad core. When Phenom II came out Nehalem was already out and raped it in practically everything.

One of my biggest mistakes was "upgrading" from my Core 2 rig to Phenom II because I wanted to continue using my DDR2 RAM instead of buying new DDR3 sticks. I even bought top of the line OC motherboard for it and it didn't OC worth shit. Should have just invested the 200€ more going to Nehalem would have cost.

>>58941073
Oh goodie. Let's compare an unreleased chip against a chip that has been on the market for nearly a year.

Wait until the Gen 8 Core i7 hits. Kek.
>>
>>58941073
The prices for AMD should be better if the leaked sheet is true, but clock for clock you can still quite clearly see Intel destroys AMD.

However I'm hoping those benchmarks when they're released on the 28th prove fruitful. I'd love to get an 8-core clocked at 4GHz for ~500 bucks.
>>
>>58963255
>Gen 8 Core i7
It's just an overclocked gen 7, which is literally an overclocked gen 6
Not worth waiting for 1 day unless Intel cuts prices in half.

When it comes to integers, Piledriver isn't (or rather, wasn't) bad in heavily threaded tasks. It's fucking Sandy Bridge at stock clocks.

I'm using my Phenom X4 955 for gaymes since 2011 with no overclock with medium-ultra settings 40-60FPS paired with an R9 280.

similar performance != rebrand

the difference in power draw should say enough.

Intel shills in denial There's nothing to compete until now They charge you 1k of a 100 stock bucks cpu with more "performance" now they are making the 7 billon "research lab" for the 7nm because they don't know what else to do with your money LUL L U L
>>
>>58965498
Intel's Fab42 has been under construction for a while, it won't be finished for a couple more years. They recently did that little white house PR thing because they were announcing they had to invest more to finish construction than they previously anticipated.
Intel will be on their 10nm process node until 2021~ it seems.
>>
>>58947590
Too be honest you made the error of buying an AMD card with really old hardware, despite it being known that AMD GPUs drop in performance with old and weak CPUs.
In your case an nvidia card would have made moer sense as they do not really seem to care all that much.

Go with the Xeon. Overclocked it will max out your 480. Any lack of performance in games will be down to your GPU.

The graph label does not actually prove that the 1700x was not turboing. All the Intel CPUs were also listed at base clocks on that graph.
