>I almost bought a Kaby Lake CPU
Damn, I dodged a bullet here.
what do you mean? Kaby Lake is still better and it doesn't cost much more.
>tfw i3 6100
can't wait to upgrade

4 cores is totally enough for the vast majority of people.
>>59064845
Not the point. We will soon be able to get better for less money. Why would anyone not take that?
>>59064868
I couldn't care less if it has 36 cores.
If it doesn't translate properly into more performance, it's just a number.
>>59064845
I understand that logic but now theres a 8 core option on the same price range (or lower) so why you gonna buy the 4 core?
Also realize if your into looking for benchmarks and cpu releases your not the "vast majority of people " AKA normies
Ryzen is a superior deal than Intel
50% market share when??
>>59064912
See post above yours.

The Intel Core i7-6950X is just as fast as the i5-7600K.
I don't do heavy multitasking stuff, so I don't see a reason for me to get a CPU, just because it has more cores.
>>59064884
That's what we're saying it does. The new ryzen will be cheaper, have more cores and be faster to their comparable Intel counterparts.
>>59063892
AMD Ryzen R7 CPU BTFO:s Kaby Lake from Intel by costing 100 bucks cheaper, half the TDP and double the score in CineBench
Intel shills butt rekt
>>59064963
Only if you compare it to the i7-6950X and the likes.
I compare CPUs that are sold around the same price.
I doubt it can beat the i7-7700.
>>59065102
>he hasn't watched the linustechtips ryzen video released earlier today
7700K got BTFO by a 65W TDP Ryzen CPU
and i'm asuming you mean the unlocked version, not the standard because that one is more shit than the unlocked one.
Oh and btw, all ryzen CPU are unlocked, no need to pay 80 bucks premium just to overcluck
>>59065102
You must not have seen the benchmarks released. New ryzen is beating the 7700k AND 6800k (more expensive.
Clock speed is not the only determinant of performance
>>59065168
You don't even fucking know how much headroom the Ryzen CPUs have for overclocking.
Overclocking without a need for AiOs that is.
One does wonder why AMD doesn't sell their CPUs with 4Ghz+ already.
>7700K got BTFO by a 65W TDP Ryzen CPU
No reviews, no proofs and until then all of you are nothing but shittalking.
>>59063790
>tfw Surface Poo 5 will have Kaby Shit instead of superior Ryzen
>>59063892
>Abandon all logic.

>Have a huge need to have taken away all your money.

>Shill intel for free

Why would you do that to yourself? Why do you hate yourself so much?
>>59065235
Btw, according to leaked insider information the 8C/16HT are very hard to overclock.
Just natural, as they have so many cores, it also ofc applies to Intel variants.
>Clock speed is not the only determinant of performance
Very few games even utilize 4 cores nowadays.
>>59065280
Are you trolling or what? It was announced.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/11143/amd-launch-ryzen-52-more-ipc-eight-cores-for-under-330-preorder-today-on-sale-march-2nd
>>59065340
Where is the review?
Where are the benchmarks?
I only see Cinebench multithreaded test.
I don't see an i7-7700K either for comparison.
>>59064962
So, hold on, you huge fucking brain dead fagot.
You are saying that, you are running some strange OS, that can run just one instance of a web browser AND absolutley nothing else?
Nothing in the background, like nothing else that can use cpu time.
Ok then...
>>59065337
Who says games don't use more than 4 cores?
http://www.pcgameshardware.de/Spiele-Thema-239104/Tests/More-Cores-More-FPS-794274/
Besides, a game isn't the only thing running on your PC. Additional cores give your game more space to run
>>59065393
There won't be game benchmarks until it's actually released. I agree we can't know for sure until it's out, but it doesn't seem like you will believe them anyway.
>>59065337
Btw, according to leaked insider the person behind this post has a micropenis and is a furry.
Just natural, as the furries are.
>>59065417
You retarded piece of shit, you do not run 100% of those cores on the background. Literally 99.98% of the time ALL your background programs are 100% idle.
>>59063790
GOYIM, NO!
The X chips must be of higher quality so you can undervolt and overclock better, because the so called XFR-feature is pretty much a non-feature, totally useless.
>>59065517
AH so youre saying that with one core, like a pentium 3 @ 1gighurt i should be able to do like 90% of stuff i do everyday in my desktop?
Got it.
>>59065517
I'm not that guy, but what you said isn't remotely true. You believe a web browser playing a video is 100% idle? A music player playing your playlist is 100% idle? A program that is listening for input is 100% idle? An operating system waiting for hardware input is 100% idle? Not being the main window doesn't make a program "100% idle". Hell, there are services that are constantly running in the process manager that you can look at.
I don't think you know how a computer works
>>59063790
You did good. Waitfags always, ALWAYS, win in the end
>>59065614
Dude, he has that weird OS that only uses one instance of anything and THATS it, no need for "moar" useless cores like he said.
Get over it pajeet shill.
>>59064810
MOAR COREZ
>>59063790
>Got an i5-7600K for just $120
>>59065614
Yeah man, because you totally play videos in the background while playing a demanding 3D video game, right?
>>59065786
Yeah because windows shuts off all processes while playing games.
>>59065786
Hahaha you addressed one point. You gonna ignore playing music? Or other operating system processes? How about drivers?
Yes btw. I like to have a twitch stream on for background noise
I don't expect you to respond, as it's probably embarrassing at this point
>>59065827
>>59065786
Hell, what if I'm streaming whatever I'm playing?
Next you're gonna tell me that additional cores wouldn't help for that
>>59065786
I'll take what is streaming for $500.
>>59065786
please continue, this is so sweet
>>59065786
What about this you fucking fagot?
>playing lol because im a neet
>have pisscord to talk to my brazilian monkeys
>have a web browser with multiple tabs open cuz my lol sumo lol king lol guides i need
>can still recieve notofications from steam and whatever.
I hope you get money from this sad, attempt of shilling you fat neet fuck.
Testing. Ignore me

Okay

I WILL PAY ATTENTION TO YOU, SO HELP ME GOD!

No don't! I'm just making sure Hiroshimoot turned image posting back on!!
No bully.

i was about to drop nearly 1200 on an entire setup with an i7. hopefully ill be able to cut it down to 700 and use the rest for a new monitor and keyboard. thanks AMD
