The bad
>Gaming performance is weak compared to Intel, particularly in modern titles
>Specialised AVX applications will perform better under Intel

The ugly

"No-compromise"? There isn't even a budgetary advantage to getting an 1800. It's more expensive than the 7700k by $150...

The Intel chips AFAIK were typically 500-1000Ghz+ over the Ryzen. This held true for even the older Haswell parts. It seems to me the benchmarks were quite an eye opener as AMD seems to have it's shit together. Ryzen seems to do many things much more efficiently on the motherboard chipsets as well. I'm impressed.

Specialized AVX already runs better on Xeon Phi's than anything else, but 80% or more of float heavy HPC workloads BTFO all CPU's with GPU accel, where the Zen server chips will far outperform Intel for cost, power draw, and density in the near future. The number of use cases for AVX where GPU accel isn't available or more optimal is incredibly limited and not even CERN could find a reason to write AVX heavy code, as it degraded performance rather than increasing it.

No iGPU and lack of mini itx boards could be a problem.
>>
>>59210751

If you need your server to render/transcode on the fly, then yeah, go for the r7 1700. 65w tdp, 8 cores 16 threads.

Main issue is you will probably need to get an expensive hba card for your drives due to the lack of sata ports and limited pcie slots.

Consider waiting a couple months, asrock or supermicro will probably have a proper server/workstation itx.

Performance is ipc*clock speed retard. Zen is clocked 1ghz lower while having roughly the same ips as broadwell thus 7700k stopms it in anyting not using 16 threads.

I'd like to see all the Intel fanboys pick up a 6900k for their gaymens.

Didn't think so.
>>
>>59207475
If
>Excellent performance in workstation applications
is the only part of that I actually care about, would I still consider Intel?
>>
>>59211340
whats disturbing is the 1800x falling behind a 6800k in games. similar clock speeds with the 1800x having the increased core count.

and i'm not talking about 5 - 7% difference. i'm talking about upwards to 20% and a few, 30%.

there is something terribly wrong with its gaming performance because in everything else, the 1800x keeps up with the 6900k and blows the 6800(6850)k out of the water.

well sorta, the only time where x99 in general "wins" is in memory bandwidth and latency sensitive applications because atm, ryzen is enduring very high latency (80-100ms average) and x99 is quad channel so increased bandwidth where a quad channel 2400 kit provides the same level of bandwidth as dual channel 4000mhz.

honestly i wouldn't be surprised if memory latency is causing some of this regression in gaymes as memory latency does matter. even bandwidth is mattering again.

The interesting thing to me is that it actually seems to be a colossal motherboard fuckup. The game review scores on Gigabyte and MSI are noticeably different than ASUS'. Sadly, it seems that the most common board sent to reviewers were ASUS boards.

It's not the CPU's job to be massively multithreaded, it's the GPU's: >>59214968
AMD kids are illiterate in technology.
They pretend a CPU is a GPU.....
>>
>>59207663
Is that why it supports ECC memory?
>>
in all fairness, the cpu is actually way better than the reviews show it.

but again AMD managed to fuck shit up.

the reason for the shitty performance is due to the motherboards being autistic. if they where better optimized, then expect the 1800x singlethreaded performance to be on par with kaby.

again if AMD hadnt fucked it up, all would be great.
>>
>>59207997
7700K is quad core though. 1800 is Octa core, price comparison is irrelevant. Or wait, sorta. Intel deca core cost like $1-2k while 1800 goes 2 less cores (20% less total cores) for over 50% price drop.

The most expensive/powerful CPU of a balanced performance/price set isn't the game changer boi. It's the lower end stuff that matters. Where else do you get a quad core / threads at 3.1 ghz, 14nm die size, modern processor at just $129?

>Company of Heroes

>>59208081
You do know that most people aren't as retarded as you and don't buy a $500 8 core processor that excels in multithreaded workloads just to play video games on, right?
>>
>>59207663
Then you didn't pay much attention to their marketing.

^This. SO. MANY. TIMES

I get that the 1800 looks sick with its 8 core. But that is just for show/workstation. The value for performance is where the shining gem is.

$129 for quad core, is absolutely sick. I give no jacks for the 1800/1700

I'm seriously baffled when I read this board, why are all these kids from /v/ arguing about which 6/8 core CPU is the best for gaming when you can just buy a quad core and get an infinitely better GPU with your money?
