How does showing benchmarks with a GPU bottleneck not make weak CPUs look better than they really are?
>>59207147
>MADSHILLS' face when
I wonder if people have ever tried to code something in low level OpenGL or Direct3D. Those subsystems do most of the parallelism on the GPU level, don't work well with multithreading on the CPU level/they often work even faster if a single thread is feeding them instructions, and in many cases you can make it much worse by multithreading them. In many game genres it's simply bad design to not go largely single threaded when all you do is feed extremely simple stuff to an extremely paralleled GPU pipeline.
People should shake their heads when others suggest that games can become a lot more multithreaded on the CPU level since in most cases the most you can subthread is something like a sound engine that won't be more than 2% of your load.
PS. Some benchmark reviewers are so clueless that they bottleneck their GPUs and then pretend that they do a CPU test. The entire point is to test the CPU bottlenecks when you test CPUs. If you don't, you practically do motherboard testing.

A lot of AM4 BIOS's are fucked atm.
Jokers review on youtube has the 1700 performing extremely well, an outlier but he does have a Gigabyte board which doesn't seem to be having issues.
So my understanding is this.
1) you got intel giving out guidelines on how to test ryzen, making many reviews untrustworthy
2) you got a last minute uefi update that changed the bench results entirely,
3) you got many revieweres who made a 20+ page review who just said fuck you to amd and the update and never redid the tests for launch...
this is a shitshow no matter how you look at it due to intel tainting trust in reviewers, reviewers refusing to do their fucking job, and amd being so secretive that motherboard makers couldn't get launch ready bioses out.
Thank god my gpu is in rma right now, gives me a good 2 weeks to a month to see further reviews.
Given how well 4 cores treated me at a time when 4 cores was retarded to get, I'm getting one of the ryzens, just don't know which one, I'm leaning toward 1800x just for the guarantee clock speeds.
If the non-gaming benchmarks put Ryzen on par or beating just about everything its put up against, that must mean that the games aren't taking advantage of Ryzen's available performance. If it really was shit it would be shit in everything.

Actually, as far as gaming goes, CPU bottlenecks are almost irrelevant unless you're specifically into 144Hz gaming.
At 60Hz you'll never run into CPU bottlenecks unless you're using a 2GHz server chip or something or the game has a multi-core bottleneck and overwhelms your crappy quadcore. (very rare)

oh right, GNU/SystemD/X.Org/Pacman/KDE/Linux
I may be missing some other major components in my distribution.
>>59213567
Thousands of projects have developed programs commonly included in today's GNU/Linux systems. They all deserve credit for their contributions, but they aren't the principal developers of the system as a whole, so they don't ask to be credited as such.
GNU is different because it is more than just a contributed program, more than just a collection of contributed programs. GNU is the framework on which the system was made.
>>59213582
>GNU is the framework on which the system was made
shouldn't you credit the original unix then as well?
>>59213600
Actually, none of GNU comes from Unix. Unix was proprietary software (and still is), so using any of its code in GNU would have been illegal. This is not a coincidence; this is why we developed GNU: since you could not have freedom in using Unix, or any of the other operating systems of the day, we needed a free system to replace it. We could not copy programs, or even parts of them, from Unix; everything had to be written afresh.
No code in GNU comes from Unix, but GNU is a Unix-compatible system; therefore, many of the ideas and specifications of GNU do come from Unix. The name “GNU”, which stands for “GNU's Not Unix”, is a humorous way of giving credit to Unix for this, following a hacker tradition of recursive acronyms that started in the 70s.
The first such recursive acronym was TINT, “TINT Is Not TECO”. The author of TINT wrote another implementation of TECO (there were already many of them, for various systems), but instead of calling it by a dull name like “somethingorother TECO”, he thought of a clever amusing name. (That's what hacking means: playful cleverness.)
Other hackers enjoyed that name so much that we imitated the approach. It became a tradition that, when you were writing from scratch a program that was similar to some existing program (let's imagine its name was “Klever”), you could give it a recursive acronym name, such as “MINK” for “MINK Is Not Klever.” In this same spirit we called our replacement for Unix “GNU's Not Unix”.
Historically, AT&T which developed Unix did not want anyone to give it credit by using “Unix” in the name of a similar system, not even in a system 99% copied from Unix. AT&T actually threatened to sue anyone giving AT&T credit in that way. This is why each of the various modified versions of Unix (all proprietary, like Unix) had a completely different name that didn't include “Unix”.
>>59213644
>many of the ideas and specifications of GNU do come from Unix
this indicates to me that Unix deserves credit just as much as GNU, apart from the whole AT&T lawsuit thing.

word from AMD and reviewers themselves is that they merely asked for 1440p and 4k to be tested ALONG with 1080p and lower.
it's valuable to know that a chip won't bottleneck your current setup even though it's weaker at gaming overall.
I wouldn't recommend Ryzen to anyone building a gaming machine but the fact of the matter is that it's viable there, whereas Vishera wasn't at all.
gamer kids need to go back to /v/
>>59207040
the 1080 is sitting at 99% load all the time while both CPUs are at 40 to 70% on every core. that's a GPU bottleneck. the guy is legit fucking retarded.
>hurr no I turned off vsync
the only positive thing in that video is the individual thread load. all of those games (even GTA V) seem to spread across all logical CPUs pretty fucking well. it's likely AMD will manage to squeeze out some additional perf by improving CPU scheduling, but I sincerely doubt they will catch up to Intel in gaming.

>1) you got intel giving out guidelines on how to test ryzen, making many reviews untrustworthy
there is nothing wrong with this. both Intel and AMD were giving out guidelines. they want their product to be represented fairly.
for Intel it was "make sure to show our superior single thread results" and for AMD it was "make sure to test games at 4K"
>2) you got a last minute uefi update that changed the bench results entirely,
that would explain some of the worst benchmarks but overall the results should be considered definitive. GamersNexus had the correct revision for their review.
>3) you got many revieweres who made a 20+ page review who just said fuck you to amd and the update and never redid the tests for launch...
potentially. this is a problem that plagued the 480. only hardwarecanucks revisited it after driver updates made it overtake the 1060 and that propably hurt sales a bunch.
but the tech press is not to blame for AMD's disastrous launch.
I wouldn't recommend the 1800X at all. the 1700X is a niche buy if you have non-gaming workloads for it.

They simply do not have the same funding as intel does. You cannot expect a curry company to compete toe to toe with jews. They overcompensate but just throwing more cores in there. For me it's still a miracle that they at least managed that level of performance. I was expecting way less.

Are you retarded? I picked a game at random, GTA V.
1700X 103.2 FPS
2500k 87.3 FPS
The difference is small at stock speeds, even! With OC the i5 will beat Ryzen.
And let me remind you that the 2500K launched for $216 SIX YEARS AGO. 1700X costs literally twice as much.
>>59217987

>>59218022
>Why can't a company with a fraction of the R&D budget as the competition release a product that matches it in performance
Gee whiz, you tell me. Do you think creating a CPU is just a matter of willpower?
>>59218122
running at higher freqs doesn't automatically incur a linear increase in performance. it also comes with higher PSU/VRM requirements, higher risks to the hardware and a number of additional hurdles. the argument that you can OC a chip to make it match another at stock level is always stupid.
in addition, sandy bridge is inevitably going to be stuck far behind in many, many cases due to its ancient platform and slower RAM.
this is just not a good angle to attack AMD from. try harder.
>>59218223
The K series is specifically designed and sold for its overclocking ability, it's not stupid at all. There are hordes of people who have been running 2500K at 4.5+ for half a decade now with no problem. Higher PSU requirements? lmao
Slow RAM is the only reasonable argument.
MUH GAYMES
Who cares? This will be a perfect chip for professionals
>>59218202
With a 4.5 Ghz overclock you'd match stock Ryzen in GTA V.
While overclocking Ryzen isn't much luck, getting it to turbo at XFR frequency on all cores is a non issue for most.
It is exceeding Sandy Bridge IPC and performance even in games. Outside of games it's completely unfunny how behind Sandy Bridge is. Stop being retarded.
>>59218305
To back it up, with perfect performance scaling a 4.5Ghz overclock would be a 20% increase in performance, the Ryzen there is running 19% faster at stock, so no all core turbo enabled yet.
I currently own a 2500k and it only does 4.4 stable on a good board and with a good custom water loop. Now I know that's a tad low but most don't go above 4.5.
My friend's 2600k only does 4.5 stable under a closed loop cooler (corsair h100) and my other friend's 2500k only does 4.5 with a CM Nepton 140.
Not even shilling, your math is just wrong.
If you enjoy gaming but also do literally anything else not gaming related that's moderately heavy, Ryzen is worth the price.
>>59218395
...do you seriously think you need water cooling to reach 4.5 on a 2500K? You're doing it wrong.
>>59218442
no, you can do it on air fine. But the silicon lottery isn't a guarantee for 4.7Ghz on air at 0.7vcore as you niggers like to pretend.
4.5 is what most people hit and run at regardless of cooling. Few go higher.

Funny post, frogposter.

What really bugs me about this post is someone took a low rez pepe, blew it up to that size, and drew those glasses at the higher resolution.
Why does Ryzen have smoother gameplay than the i7 7700k, as observed by many reviewers, when the numbers are lower?
Just a warning. Shills are getting paid to talk shit about ryzen.

Those goalposts can really move.
Todays usage of cpu power just is not optimized for more than 4 real cores and 8 threads if you stretch it in most scenarios! Simple as that. Will it change as AMD insists? Who knows?
For right now and say about atleast 18 months ahead going with 4C/8T Intel and Cuda for any real work seems like the way to go!

WE NEED RYZEN FRAMETIMES STAT
>>59221783
Not just gaming, even common software like Photoshop, basically everything
Its the price for performance that people seem to not bring up on both sides of the shit flinging shitshow. why even bother trying to prove Intel can do literally single digits higher than zen where Intel chips + mobos cost 3x more than amd + mobo.
>>59221870
Fake, if anyone is getting paid to shill it's AMD
Look at the crap they are pulling, they are scamming people

Yeah except that is 100% false.
The fucking $500 AMD chip gets beat by a $340 Intel chip
Hell even in most games a $240 Intel chip beats the $500 Ryzen
>>59221932
If all you're doing is gaming, the r7s are on par with an i5, which costs $200-$250. If Intel motherboards cost $50 more for feature parity with AMD ones (I'm too lazy to check), then the price/performance is basically even between an r7 1700 and an unlocked i5.
>>59221991
It's actually worse because an r7 1700 is $330
Even if Intel MB had a $50 price premium, you are paying an extra $40 if you go with AMD

god i hope ryzen 5's higher out of the box clock speeds actually increase their IPC by a significant amount
otherwise its like why even get anything out of this lineup? if the most expensive is purely for rendering videos and jacking off to benchmarks due to low clocks/ipc, wtf are the other ryzen going to be for?
>>59222070
But IPC is fine anon.
We know from all of history though that the lower core count will generally end up overclocking better due to the nature of silicon fabrication.
So we'll probably get 4.3~ OC'd 6c/12t at i5 prices and 4c/8t at low i5/high i3 prices
>>59223140
I think 4.3 is reasonable for the 6 cores. Probably 4.4~4.5 for the 4 cores. Some Ryzen 7 1800x can push 4.2 so.....

>why even get anything out of this lineup?
You shouldn't, Ryzen is shit.
