We don't know how well Ryzen will overclock yet. If the quad or six-core processors can hit 4.2-4.6GHz they'll keep up with Baby Lake. If not Ryzen might be a workstation chip.
>>
>>59097469
Then why is a 5Ghz fx-9590 performing like a 3.4Ghz core i7 in your little unnamed benchmark? For many DX11 games or serial processing tasks in general performance is dictated by BOTH clock for clock efficiency and overall clock-speed.
>>
>>59097469
those fx processors don't have hyperthreads, what the shit is this chart?
>>
>>59097519
>Then why is a 5Ghz fx-9590 performing like a 3.4Ghz core i7
Because Bulldozer has very weak cores? Duh, it doesn't even have 8 FPUs so it's not even in the same ballpark.

Also these are like 17 games aggregate.
>>
>>59097469
At worst we're looking at similar performance to current Intel processors, however you also get the benefit of more cores, which could still apply to games if you do other things at the same time, like stream/encode video.

>>59097542
Exactly my point to OP, just because you have a high core clock does not mean your performance will be better then a lower clocked design that has a higher clock for clock efficiency. Its not just Ghz if it were netburst Pentiums would have been awesome at something other then space-heating.
>>
Nobody needs more than 4 cores if they do they're just pretending to need them
>>
Modern games are mostly garbage gameplay and story-wise but at least they started using more than 2-4 cores, it's inadvisable to get a 4 core now when an 8 or 6 core is similar to the 4 core's price and has per core performance within 5% of the 4 core.

So what you're showing is that there is a measurable difference between 4, 6 and 8 cores right now?

That's what I'm seeing.

Of course there is? Even in gaming.

Nobody needs more than 1 core, if they do they're just pretending to need them.
>>
>>59097500
We do know one thing, the 6 core won't OC any better than the 8.

'Ryzen Master' allows you to disable cores entirely, so an 8core will always be able to OC to the same level as a 6core (since both are 2x 4core complexes, 6core just having 1 core per complex disabled)

Who knows about 4 core though, could be a single complex could be 2 complexes with 2 cores disabled per complex.

Obviously, there's no way a some 500MHz can keep up with more cores when cores are actually needed, and they'll just be more needed in the future.

Now if you only tested 2010 games the 4 core would win.
>>
>>59097956
The 8 core reached 5.2 stable on all eight cores when heat was removed as a factor (LHe cooling). That's about as good as Haswell-E gets under the same conditions.

If Ryzen can reach the frequencies Haswell-E can, Intel is fucked
>>
>>59098052
I've been hearing some guy mention he got the 1700(cheap $320 8 core at 65W) to 4.1, but unknown if its with the new amd tool or through the BIOS

If so that's good indication the X versions should be pretty decent.
>>
>>59097551
they're fucking listed as 8 cores everywhere. fuck off

>>59098052
With all 8 cores enabled.
It should do better than that with only 6cores enabled.

That's one thing Intel can't do on the fly, disable cores.

IPC depends on the workload, and should therefore be averaged over a wider range of benchmarks.
I'm not saying that Zen's IPC isn't good or that this benchmark is wrong, just that it won't be ahead of Kaby Lake in every workload you throw at it.

That graph is percentage of a baseline chip, but doesn't have the 100% chip listed for some reason. Oh, and Computerbase has mentioned they have a R7 1800x in for testing, but has to wait for the NDA to expire before they can say anything about it. ;)
>>
>>59098319
It's not reliable.
Only after you put a benchmark that hammers two main compute parts of the core (fpu/alus) can you claim the IPC is better than kaby lake.

Personally I'm expecting AMD to lose the FPU by a few % with ops that aren't higher than 256b but win the integer race, so tl;dr depends on the workload, cinnebench for example is more FPU centric.
>>
>>59098233

I love that bench so much as an AMD customer.
>>
>>59098291
exactly, that's an even better suggestion

just need to stop letting people meme the idea that the 8c/16t 65w R7 1700 is worth buying for gaming when a 6c/12t 95W 1600x is 10x better

Anyone thinking the 1700 is for gaming and not a budget workstation chip is going to be disappointed.

1700 with a B350 is a steal for a great all around desktop though.

>>59098418
Depends on the game, but newer games compiled with recent compilers - yes.

Intel's perf hasn't really moved much in 5 years, (you can see as much if you test with older benchmarks that are provided binary only) - but it also has, a lot.
Newer instructions cut down on clocks required to the get the same result and there are more clocks too.

Why get 4.5Ghz 7700k instead of getting 3.7Ghz r7 1700 for cheaper? It's easy to overclock it to 4.0Ghz on all cores or 4.5Ghz on 4 cores reaching kaby lake single thread scores.
>>
>>59097469
That's why in your graph 6900k, 6950x and 6850k are all shitting on 7700k and 6700k while still having a much lower clock frequency, right?
>>
>>59098490
because the 1700 is a 65w part and is total shit at overclocking

you need a 1700x to achieve stable OC over 4ghz

this is just a prediction but it's well informed and probably correct
>>
>>59098495
It's sarcasm.

Some people here like to pretend games are still in 2009, or they're just salty as fuck because they recently bought a 4 core for $350
>>
>>59098490

Because the 1700 has a TDP of 65w and won't go past 4Ghz.

If you want to overclock, just grab the 1700X
>>
>>59098509
>because the 1700 is a 65w part and is total shit at overclocking
If the 1700 can hit 4.0 on all cores then it's great, that would obliterate any Intel 8 core and put the 10 core in spitting range.

I can sacrifice some 200-300MHz for cheaper price, it's no problem, I won't sperg over 6% FPS
>>
>>59098516
You can exceed the TDP you know...
>>
>>59098509
>>59098516
4.0Ghz on 1700 already confirmed
http://www.tweaktown.com/news/56422/amd-ryzen-7-1700-4ghz-1800x-performance-329/index.html
You just need a good phased motherboard to supply all the voltage needed.
If you want to overclock over 4.0Ghz turn off 4 extra cores.
>>
>>59098326
Don't see how higher power consumption and thermals in the context of non flash point temperatures matters, especially not in the minor difference between AMD and Intel thermals. Regardless, don't see how it's a house fire without a report of actual house fire. Please help me understand your viewpoint in a clear and constructive manner.
>>
>>59098540
Or just 2 cores even.
Or 6 cores if you're playing some old ass game that doesn't multithread at all on PC (like GTAIV) (graphics driver still needs a render thread, so don't go crazy and disable 7 cores)
>>
>>59098561
Of course that is possible too. AMD new overclocking utility and (possibly UEFIs too) allow for turning off cores and tweaking per core voltages so you may not even need to turn off anything, put higher turbos on some cores and lower on others for optimal balance

this. amd poorfags really want to believe that they can get a cheap 8 core that will be better in all situations even though it's common knowledge that you can't utilize that many cores outside of specific workloads such as video encoding
>>
>>59098878
Obviously they do since the 8 core at the top of the chart is clocked 700MHz lower than a 7700k and on a older architecture.
>>
>>59098878
it's specifically in watch dogs 2 which is one of the few games that can use more cores, and even then it's not a huge difference, and it looks like they ran the 7700k on stock clocks, with 5 GHz overclock it would be more fair
>>
>>59098881
> Processor Base Frequency 3.40 GHz
>Max Turbo Frequency 3.60 GHz

Lmao so just overclock it by 200MHz and it's already faster than your 4 core?
Not to mention when it's actually at 4.3-4 most BDW-E can do it would obliterate your shit 4 core.
>>
>>59098831
They do but besides, you shouldn't post a console with that comment. The target audience of consoles is entirely different from "gaming" hardware.

>the typical user doesn't need 8c/16t
Two years ago users didn't need more threads as well, remember how i5 was recommended instead of i7? Trend has moved to 8 threads now, and even more threads will become mainstream in not so distant future. Even Intel sees this, new coffee lake will be 6c/12t. With Ryzen 1700 being cheaper than 7700k it's hard to argue against it.
>>

>Gibbo explained: "We just tested a 1700, it hit 4.0GHz stable in everything, but ONLY in the Crosshair mainboard, the lower-end boards it was hovering around 3.80GHz as the VRM's were cooking with extra voltage. It however was maxing around 4050MHz, so I'd say 1700 can do 3.9-4.1GHz, of course the 1800X will probably do 4.1-4.3 as no doubt better binned, but if your clocking the motherboard has a big impact on the overclock and so far ASUS Crosshair and Asrock Taichi seem the best two".
lol you need to spend extra on a fancy motherboard to even max out at 4 GHz

>>59099335
Then why is a 6900k, you know a 8 core with 800MHz less base clock leading the pack?

>>59099351
Why isn't the 10/20 leading the pack? And why is the difference between the 4/8 and the 8/16 a mere 6 frames (~6%)? Because in reality moar corez is negligible beyond a certain point (4/8) which is why all that matters IN PRACTICE are IPC and clock speed. Yes, having more cores and threads is generally better, but how much better is the issue here. AMD is slower and has lower clocks, period, so MOAR COREZ is not a valid response. Inb4 you move the goalposts some more.

>>59099346
was that 8 core load testing?
>>
>>59099395
Because scaling isn't all that great after 8 cores? And the 6900k is clocked even lower per core.

Anyhow, the 6900k is clearly faster while being significantly under the clockspeed of a 7700k, both can overclock but that would just put the 6900k even further ahead since its base clock is low from the start.

Game:

7700k (at 4.8-5.0) arbitrarily scores 80FPS

Game:
Uses 6-8 cores
7700k (at 4.8-5.0) arbitrarily scores 88FPS
6900k (at 4.3-4) arbitrarily scores 115FPS

Plus not only are your fresh new shitshow AAA games running better, everything else will run better too, unless you game on SuperPi all day.

the single core performance difference is negligible. Whether you're getting 110 fps or 105 or even 47 instead of 50 really doesn't matter. What matters is that you're getting almost the same single core performance as 6700k/7700k fags AND the multi-thread performance of chips that cost 2-3x as much, which of course aforementioned fags don't care about because all they do is jerk off over their minecraft tnt fps and 3dmark physics scores.

Instead, Intel fanboys should be looking to the future, because for them it's going to be a bright one. It's like they have stockholme syndrome with intel's jewcock that has made dual and quad cores some of which don't even have hyper-threading, a technology developed fifteen (15) years ago the standard since 2009, and constantly inflated the cost of the """""""""enthusiast"""""""" platform while also offering almost nothing for that ever increasing pricetag except maybe another 2 cores every 2 gens if you were lucky. AMD putting them in their place means they are not only going to raise the bar for the low and mid range, but also offer more for less at the highest price points. It's a win no matter which company you support.

So price/perf is important now? I didn't know you were so poor.

Nobody's arguing that the 7700k is best price/perf, but that's what Intelfags were saying wasn't important for years, suddenly it's the most important thing.
Also your 7700k shits the bed whenever you do anything that's not gaming, I don't care to sacrifice massive performance boosts when running VMs/Handbrake/Photoshop/Batch conversion and compression jobs so I can have 6% higher FPS in <2013 games

i'm comparing against 7700k. the main theme of the shilling is that the similarly priced r7 1700 is better for all use cases

That point never legitimately happens in games. How many things AREN'T parallelable in video games? The state logic of a character's behavior and that's about it. That should amount to about 0.0001% of all game code being run.

Programmers are just lazy and they only feel like mutlithreading some specific part of the graphics engine that can only be done on software and maybe a physics-based collision detection if they're feeling fancy.

Then again if games weren't terribly programmed you could be running them on Pentiums 4 with the astronomically few exceptions that actually are doing something fancy with procedural generation.

>>59100013
If you can overclock it to at least 4.0(big if) it'll do more than fine, at stock I don't really expect it to, it's clocked way to low and is 65W to boot, it's clearly aimed at multithreaded perf/watt like a cheap server part.

The 4 core Intel without SMT and 2MB less L3 cache isn't even competition for gaming, there's a certain threshold that shouldn't be crossed and that's anything below the 7700k.

Look, this doesn't magically give you twice the cores, at most 1 SMT thread is 20% faster, and that's really really pushing it outside of synthetics.
So no, your HT Pentium is more like a 2,4 core instead of a 4 core.

Nigger.

If it doesn't matter, Celeron with 1 core and 1 thread pushed over 7GHz in overclocking records would be the best CPU ever

Those are all stock parts, if the 8C/10C parts are overclocked to 4.4 the 7700k doesn't hold a handle.

my point exactly 7700k is already clocked to its nearly maximum

the others are not even trying imagine the huge lead they will have

>>59100226
there is a proven difference between the old pentium and the new one and most reviewers put it down to the hyper threading

Those higher core chips are much more expensive though, if the 1700X/1700 (lets be honest the 1800X is just penis-waving) can OC to 4.3 there would be no contest for gaming, much less anything else.

Even 4.8 would be stretching it. 4.6 on all 6 core might be achievable.

because someone who buys a 7700k will probably overclock it. and 7700k comfortably clocks higher than ryzen cpus so it's reasonable to run it at a higher clock (if you're comparing overall performance and not just IPC).

No, this diagram doesn't really tell us anything except for the overall performances; give us a real time benchmark to see the stability in full load.

Older games (NOLF,NOLF2.UT for example) all ran like shit on bulldozer, even with the cpu patches the games still were jerky/had timing issues. I used same exact mobo/ram/graphics combo, only diff was CPU (Phenom II x4 955 & FX 8300) Guess which cpu ran all games flawlessly as well as everything else? Hint; It wasn't the FX. So Higher clocks & more cores don't really do much if the underlying circuits aren't optimized for single thread tasks. Course the fact that 3D now extensions were removed from the FX line might have had something to do with it to. Now all other non gaming tasks the FX was ok. So it'd be good for workstation/server use. But I use my desktop for mix of everything so FX would not suit my needs. Moral of tale: Hang on to your Phenom II's if you got them. Invest in more ram or a SSD drive to gain more speed.

The intel damage control ITT is off the charts. I don't think anyone was expecting Ryzen to have Skylake/Kaby Lake IPC, so the fact that it's in the ballpark makes it a no-brainer for people looking to upgrade. Basically everyone that isn't an asshurt intel child is overjoyed by this, even if you aren't planning on buying Ryzen.

>half the price
>double the logical cores
>intel being BTFO by the tech media

This is great no matter how you look at it. This isn't Bulldozer part 2. Even if in worst case scenarios it's 15-20% slower than overclocked Skylake/Kaby Lake in single threaded tasks, it's good enough, as in it's well above the "good enough" single-threaded power standards established by Sandy Bridge a long ass time ago and on top of that, it's offering threads that are off the charts for the price.
>>
>>59104557
Housefire? What?

You need thermal headroom to get a good OC, it may be hard enough to get a Ryzen to 4.5ghz without having to worry about other thermal issues. If they run at the same temp, I might consider the hexacore, but I don't think it's absolutely necessary.
>>
>>59104647

If you can get an 8 core CPU to 4 ghz, I guess you can try to reach at least 4.3 ghz with an hexacore

which is more worth it :

a 4c/8t at 4.5 ?
a 6c/12t at 4.3 ?

will the 200 mhz difference erase the """"massive"""" performance gap in multithreading between those two CPUs ?

Multithreading is achieved in 2 levels.
1) Software level: optimizing the overall software architecture and or compilers (in some rare instances)
2) Hardware level: schedulers, branch predictors prefetchers and whatever magic happens in the l1,l2 and l3 cache.

Pic related is quake 2 demo (3.14) running on a i7 2600K. Why o why does it runs on 2 threads?
Also idk why fagots posting benchs cant make a simple resource monitor like this.

>>59107247
how do you expect quake 2 to make a meaningful use of that many threads lmfao

>>59107317
it's a much more complex game than quake 2 and those games tend to use pipelining which add 1 or more extra frames of latency

Cant define a "weak" core can you?
Thats the whole point, bulldozer had this strange conectivity at some strange places (l1, l2 and l3 cache) the predictors were shit, the shared floating was wrong, the gigahurtz made no difference and so on.
But ryzen has a never before seen branch predictor, low penalty missprediction, low latency across all cache levels AND the bonus of knowing how to make high megahurtz designs.
So im guessing we all are in for a huge sorprise with oc'ing and stuff.

>One thing that we shouldn’t fail to mention is that all of the results we’re seeing, including the record breaking performance of an overclocked Ryzen 1800X is only the tip of the iceberg. These chips are fresh off the production line and how high they can clock will only get better as the 14nm LPP process AMD is using matures. It’s impressive enough that the company can already get its first ever 14nm CPU iteration to hit 4.0GHz straight out of the gate. It took Intel several years before its 14nm process was mature enough to produce quad-core CPUs that can hit 4.0GHz, let alone 8-core chips.

>Still, Asus' reputation for rock-solid reliability and overclocking performance continues with the Code. It is a high-end motherboard with a high-end price to match, but it (along with several other Asus boards) has a neat party trick: it can push the i7-7700K to 5GHz with a reasonable (read: no extravagant water cooling required) setup. There are a few caveats to that performance—the biggest being that Asus also supplied the i7-7700K for this review, which was likely binned from a large batch—but the company claims that most decent unlocked Core i7 and Core i5 Kaby Lake chips will hit 5GHz between a reasonable 1.29-1.35 volts.

Interesting graph but more info is needed.

Also, this is the 65W chip we're talking about here. The best XFR 6c12t chip that is ultimately cheaper than the R7 1700 will likely be a better gaming chip.

The R7 1700 seems like a niche chip geared more for productivity than gaming.

There is only two cases where the 7700k wins, losing in an average of 14 games. The 12% obviously wouldn't be worth the premium, but I don't see how cores don't have any relevance in this case, especially not in contrast to AMD's upcoming CPUs which are believed to perform around the 6900k.

I guess it comes back to the 1700's boost behavior and overclocking potential.
