Well, it's time to face facts, /g/entlemen.

As an alternative to Intel's current HEDT offerings, Ryzen 7 is a clear winner, offering 80% to 90% the performance of comparable Intel chips for half the price or less. Anyone looking to build a workstation or streaming box without breaking the bank should be looking at AMD right now.

However, with limited single-core performance and a high price point compared to faster Intel chips, Ryzen 7 is a poor choice for gaming. Anyone who was looking for Ryzen for their next gaming build should either wait to see how Ryzen 5 fares or simply buy Intel instead.

>B-b-but muh 4k benchmarks
At high resolutions like 4k, the GPU is the bottleneck in the system, rather than the CPU, so gaming benchmarks done at higher than 1080p are not indicative of actual CPU performance.

>B-b-but muh optimization
While it is true that optimization may help boost Ryzen's gaming performance in the future, right now Ryzen appears to excel in workloads that are highly parallelized. Due to the fact that games are typically forced to wait for player input before deciding what tasks to perform next, they are difficult to parallelize and thus there is a limitation to how well they can be optimized for a higher thread count, lower thread performance CPU like Ryzen 7.

>B-b-but muh Joker Productions
Right now his benchmarks appear to be an unexplained outlier. However, if accurate, they may point to the Ryzen 7 1700 specifically being a compelling choice for gamers if heavily overclocked.

Right now i feel a sensible option might be to get a Ryzen 3 or Ryzen 5 and if they really want a 7, wait for the platform to mature.

Hopefully AMD will stick with the same chipsets and firmwares will get updated for a t least 2-3 years.
>>
>>59215512
Even if 5GHz was a substantial overclock at 5GHz, it wouldn't matter much. The 7700K shits all over the 1700 at stock clocks. And it is a minority of users who will be willing to overclock and not all 1700 chips may overclock as well as Joker's.

So what you mean to say is that people willing to drop $500 on a new cpu don't have 1440p/4k monitors, thus making ryzen no good for gayming?

actually someone did a pretty good sum about some of the benchmarks
https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x4rtc/ryzen_gaming_benchmarks_summary/

gigabyte mobos are by far the best ones amd send the worst possible mobos out there

So this is why Joker's got such good results? I think he had the gigabyte motherboard
>>
>>59215637
No benchmark is legitimate and should be taken with a grain of salt unless you stand in the fucking room when it was undergone. This fat brown shill has to be only one showing such performance and his results are stacked against 20-30 different reviewers that all show something else.

He could do 50 different things to skew the benchmark and looking how desperate he is with all those videos about Ryzen I wouldn't be surprised.

Keep in mind that the GPU core speed on his Intel rig is slightly lower which could be caused by so many things (thermal throttling, motherboard using some sort of auto OC, him enabling or disabling high performance profile in Windows or just straight out using different GPU or limiting it in some way). I don't say that 13 Mhz different matters but it's just odd.

>mfw when there are at least 2 Pentiums faster than the 1700
>>
>>59215696
this is why everyone get different results..they were purely random from being -8% from 7700k to -30%

i explained it yesterday on some thread here that its quite a lot of combination doing wonky stuff..

the L3 is "broken" and shared along with ccx's and that wouldnt be a problem if the smt wasnt tapping on the caches

BUT the good stuff starts with windows because they treat every thread as a cpu and they load balance them incide the cpu and that is very BAD for ryzen because amd treats every ccx as a cpu and thus when windows throws the threads around it lets the data of them on the L3 randomly without knowning where it was they therefore start a new cycle->parking the core thus leading to the high perfomance bug (which is already solved with an update from yesterday on windows) BUT the smt will take months to fix (it took months to ms to fix the HT back when intel introduced it)
>>

>Stacked against 20-30 reviews

So, gamers nexus? The one review out of 30 that was a blatant hit job?

Joker's is more reliable at this point. He even went out of his way to do a follow-up showing it REAL TIME.

Steve from GM hasn't shown shit.
>>
>>59215602
Basically by introducing a GPU bottleneck you end up compromising the relevance of the actual benchmark. This is because the CPU isn't doing most of the processing, rather the GPU, meaning that even meager performers in the CPU market can be made to look good with a GPU bottleneck. That means that by relying on the bottleneck to meter performance you end up buying a CPU that will rapidly fall. That said the benchmarks do indicate that it doesn't, itself, bottleneck anything.

Furthermore this is the first iteration of the Ryzen series of CPUs and they are early into the release process so one might speculate that:
A)Future iterations, esp. 4c 8t, and 6c 12t will perform more adequately for a gaming load
B)Software optimizations may either marginally or substantially improve performance
C)A housefire

And additionally as far as I know, the more advance features of the series (de-coring) haven't been tested extensively and as such posture an interesting mystery until they're pushed adequately.

Personally I'm waiting to see what the 4c8t CPUs perform like before I pass a judgement onto the architecture itself, and I'm interesting in seeing what kind of results the collusion between AMD and Bethesda generate, if any, and whether or not devs will be opting to optimize for SMT and higher thread counts.

Not if you already have one.
>>
>>59215756
Oh I get that, but from everything i've seen, it's still not even a CPU bottleneck. I know it's going to take time for the programs that are used for testing to mature. But I'd like to see at least steady 65-75% utilization before I feel judgement can be passed.
Moar cores is the future, game vendors are going to have to cater to it.

i find it really hard that not a single typical intel shill site brought this up (because ALL OF THEM did those tests) and only gn did and in such a way like amd actually tried to force them to do it..

>>59215661
the gpu is pegged at 100% almost constantly so that is a gpu bound benchmark and not really indicative of the raw performance of a cpu.

that aside 1700 will obviously perform better everywhere else so if the res and quality he's running at fit your use case you'd be stupid to not get the 1700
>>
>>59215379
you forgot that soon the Ryzen 5 and 3 should come out and it might be just the same case with intel that their 4core have better single core performance therefore better for gaming. we need to wait and see
>>
>>59215902
Did you even read their review? They never claimed that AMD forced them to do it, in fact they actually stated that they contacted AMD first trying to ask for tech support to find out if there is something they can do to make AMD look better. AMD's response wasn't anything along the line of "do x to fix it", no. Their response was "do benchmarks where GPU hits limits way before CPU gets to show any performance gains". GN disagreed with this advice since it does absolutely nothing for benchmarking the CPU and hides the ugly fact that those frames will also be lower in 1440p and 4K when we get our hands on better GPUs. That's it. Now AMD and Intel shills try to spin it into some sort of unholy crusade against AMD/GN.
>>
>>59215863
the single thread performance is lackluster, but I did some research and could just upgrade to an E5-1650V2 and 1866MHz memory for significantly cheaper than buying a Ryzen + motherboard + DDR4 memory
>>
>>59215379
>At high resolutions like 4k, the GPU is the bottleneck in the system, rather than the CPU, so gaming benchmarks done at higher than 1080p are not indicative of actual CPU performance.
This is retarded. When you saturate the GPU, CPU variation is more pronounced instead of compensatory.
>>
>>59215979
Yes. That's why every CPU including i3 are within 1 fps margin error in 4k right shill?
>>
>>59215517
Not true.
Massive parallelism on the GPU is only suitable if the task at hand involves doing the same operations on a lot of data.
If you want to do different computations in parallel then CPU cores are better, as they are way more flexible and actually independent.
GPU "cores" cannot execute different instructions independently. If you have branching in your GPU code you sort of serialize the execution of those different code sections.

More CPU cores is great, because we can use them for things we can't use the GPU for.

I don't even know where to begin with your broken braincells.

Let's try this:
You have two people. One person makes a left-foot shoe, and the other makes the right-foot shoe.
We'll call left-shoe person the CPU and the right-shoe person the GPU.

Now the left-shoe person can make 10 shoes a day. That's great, but GPU man can only make 5 shoes a day, but they need a complete pair, ready at the same time for the same customer, to sell the shoes at all.
Now, if left-shoe man only makes 6 shoes a day, or 15 shoes a day, how will this effect how many shoes per day they sell (IE how many frames per second you see)?
>>
>>59216083
You sure know about broken braincells. You should take your condition more seriously.

Obviously if one piece of hardware has constant output (i.e. saturated GPU), the variations of the other (CPU-bound processing) become clearer.

Bought Kaby Lake three days ago.
Balls of steel or brains of mush? We will see.

Mostly went for maturity of platform/chipset etc, (Kaby Lake is certainly derivative but there is another side to that).

Main point of build wasn't really performance, its quiet (PC is now utterly silent) and chipset features.

PCPP hasn't updated with Ryzen yet, but for gaymin go with a 1700 and a B350M motherboard. Ditch the aftermarket cooler, replace with Noctua when you have the dosh, and replace the 1070 with an R9 Fury if possible.

at 1440p or above the GPU is going to be the bottleneck anyway. you only get CPU bottlenecks when the fps is already in the hundreds. in other words if you're gayming at 1440/2160@60 Ryzen is perfectly fine. though if you're a competitive vidya kiddie, one would assume you'll want at least 300fps, in which case go for a high clocked quad core Intel.

I don't know about you, but I buy my hardware based on software I'm going to use it with, not the other way around. By using higher resolutions in game benchmarks, you are normalizing your results to GPU and making shitty processors look much better than they actually are.

>>59217057
That'd be true if not for better 99th percentile frame rates on Ryzen where Intel drops its shit.

Why are you looking at gaming benches for your software performance then.
As it stands, ryzen is still really good, there's no two ways about it. If you want instant gratification of having the best hardware every year, I believe that Intel has a subscription service to suit your needs, at the cost of a socket change a year.
But for most consumers that do a plethora of if different things in their daily life, or work-life needs, that's not an option. We can bitch an moan about what's the best for each indivigual task till the cows come home, and we'll end up with 5-6 builds.
Do you have more than two active PC's Anon? For each task you preform for maximum performance?

You realize that OS makes sure background applications have minimal impact on the application that you have focus on? Just don't play with borderless and it's going to have no impact. Other than RAM usage of course, which is also controlled by your OS.

>Due to the fact that games are typically forced to wait for player input before deciding what tasks to perform next, they are difficult to parallelize and thus there is a limitation to how well they can be optimized for a higher thread count, lower thread performance CPU like Ryzen 7.

Bullshit. There's tons of things the game engine can do while waiting for player input like AI and network and physics, etc.
Most modern game engines will try to optimize for this because there's just so many things that can be done in a single thread.

>Final word on Ryzen 7
Give it bit more time. Anyone buying Ryzen right now may be dissapointed by "shortfalls" when compared ti 7700K and in gaming, but anyone buying an 8c16t should understand their real usage first. Highly threaded applications/tasks.

Gaming isn't so much worse than Intel current gen i7 as you can't play it, rather its not optimized for gaming. I want to add an additional "Yet" comment, as things might change in the future depending on windows update/microcode update/bios update/etc. Lots of variables to patch up for Ryzen and increase its performance over time.

Here's what hasn't happened yet: R5/R3. When those hit, what OP said about workstation CPUs will also be true for gaming CPUs, if to a much lesser extent.

1600X will be 80-90% of what the 7700K offers, for less money, yet it will still be better at gaming+streaming. In other words, it will be an utterly clear choice for all streamers. Intel needs to really put some effort into that new i5 and new i7.

the single CCX Zen chips will be cheap as fuck. half the silicon and insanely high yields given how many R7 chips AMD is apparently able to churn out. I wouldn't be surprised to see 4c/8t chips at less than $150 USD.

but if they can't clock higher than R7 chips do, they're going to be FX-6300 tier. only good by virtue of being dirt cheap.

>>59215893
Even with an overclock like that Sandy Bridge comes nowhere near Sky/Kaby Lake in terms of performance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7bcjFnLib8

This however heavily depends on the game you're playing. In this video, only The Division doesn't have much gains on newer CPUs, however the rest are all around 30% performance gains.

Also, in multiplayer games like MMOs or things like Overwatch, the gains are a lot higher.

I'm also still on a 2600k but I really need to upgrade because it gimps my 1080 like shit.

Ryzen isn't really a poor choice for gaming though expect for budget-minded crowd where 7600K and 7350 are far better choice.

I'm due for an upgrade, and it's tempting to to try to achieve his results.

IF ryzens 10% (or so) average shortfall can me eliminated or heavily mitigated by bios/OS update, it will be a clear contender. The 4c8t ryzens might be fucking crazy if this is the case as well.

Quite a few. You could be using GPU compute (Tesla, Xeon Phi) or need multiple Quadros/FirePros. You could also use multiple RAID cards.

>>59218637
right now it's more like 20%, but 10% would be perfectly acceptable IMO. hopefully they can get to that point.

>>59218641
Ryzen is in a weird place right now. it's as good as I expected, but not as good as I hoped. I'll wait a few weeks before making a final judgement.

>>59218665
doubt it. most likely they will just be single CCX chips. some will have SMT disabled but overall the SKUs will be separated by binning and nothing more. it's entirely possible that they will clock higher than the R7 chips by virtue of having less power to dissipate (and shit) but it is NOT a certainty.

as I said in an earlier post, the only thing we can reasonably assume about these chips is that they will be cheap as fuck. they should start at less than half the cost of the 1700.

They probably knew about about the mobo/BIOS problems so they only released the top tier enthusiast processors because those are the people who would be smart enough to tinker around and try to solve the issues. The R5 and R3 are aimed towards gaymers and OEMs and obviously those people are less likely to put up with launch issues.
>>
>>59218857
Wait for the r5 and r3 lineup, see how they compare to a 7600k. By that logic, if r5 is better than 7600k, r5 is better than 2600k
>>
>>59215379
Why did you only mention Joker?

There is computerbase.de as well. They went in detail.

Across many games, at 1080p ultra with SMT disabled, the average performance only seems to be 5-7% less. If you disabled HT as well that gap would be even closer.
And it's not really AMD's fault that games aren't yet optimized to use SMT like they use HT as developers are just recently getting chips.

And even then, lots of reviewers noted that the 7700k oftensuffers from frame stutters that did not affect Ryzen. Lots had frame graphs showing that. Even though the average FPS is lower, it's smoother.

They could have delayed the launch to wait for games to patch, but then there would be more negative leaks on unoptimized games hurting their marketing, so it's a catch-22 there.
>>
>>59218903
I think the reason they could not delay the launch was that the hype was already hitting a critical point. If they wait a bit longer, the hype would have probably gotten worse.

Nope.
It's currently less than a 8% deficit with SMT disabled compared to the 7700k on average across games.
SMT enabled is what adds another 12% deficit.

That'll be fixed, like it was fixed for HT and fixed when Bulldozer launched. So once that's fixed, that's only a 8% deficit.
Once games are better optimized to use Ryzen on top of that, it should perform better than the 6800k does in gaming.

Yes but part of that hype was their own leaked benchmarks that, while accurate, was just a dozen rather cherry picked games that didn't show any worse discrepancy than that of between Civ and GTA.

If they gave out Ryzen CPUs to hundreds of developers, there would have been leaks of every game that showed much more favorable ones.
Like ashes of the singularity, which HAS had it for a while pre-release, but their patch for Ryzen isn't ready yet. Others would have benchmarked that showing a highly threaded game getting -25% on Ryzen which is weird.

You would have had a lot of like 1024x768 Overwatch and CSGO leaks and shit.

Only a small handful of reviewers did anything but averages, yeah.

Computebase.de and Tom's hardware I think were the only two.
Though others like youtubers such as Hardware Unboxed do use FCAT and did mention that Ryzen was smoother despite its lower averages. They just didn't show them.
Like what's the big deal about getting 160 max fps when minimums are 100? Consistent and high minimums is the most important for gaming.

So yeah. Ryzen gets virtually the same minimum FPS, if not higher, on average. Its maximum FPS is lower so its average is.

If it can keep this same consistency, but get even higher minimums and averages, it will be good.

>>59219681
multiple reviewer said that the rysen felt smoother that surely what they meant by this
>>
>>59219044
its not only the cache problem...

the l3 is shared between the ccx's and that would have been an easy task for ms to fix BUT the SMT taps into every single cache that thats were the problem starts..

windows handles the threads as a cpu and it throws it around the cpu while holding the cache data of it on the l2 or the l3 and that is very bad for amd..

amd handles the threads as a cpu INSIDE the ccx's and when windows throw them around the cpu assumes that the op has stopped and park the core(here comes the load balancing bug amd was told to the reviewers to use only the high power one)and when the next identical op comes in the core throws it into the cache BUT the cache has already the same op stored on the l3 and therefore it pauses the new op flushes the old op and start the new one..

the same shit happened with the nehalem on windows it took ms almost 8 months to fix it

same goes with the game developers also they will need to rewrite a lot of engines (and i assume some of them that are in line with nvidia wont do it at all)

TIM paranoia aside (a meme since 3DFx was an industry leader, when was the golden age exactly?) unless you are doing a mad overclock they just don't get that hot. People obsess about relative bench-marking but brandname coolers are as over-specced as people's PSUs typically are at this point.

Much like central banks worrying about an inflation problem that hasn't been seen in 40 years during stagflation, I consider CPU temps to be a non-issue in this decade. It was a bit different during the clockwars of course but everyone involved knew it was stupid.

They don't go above 4GHz. Thing is, almost no one keeps their 7700k at stock clocks. 90% of them can do at least 4.7GHz, most can do 5GHz.
>>
>>59220771
Xeon are Intel's workstation processors though...
>>
>>59220416
The CPU is optimized for 2ghz-3.3ghz. It's a server chip, pretty much.

While it's a very durable chip that can handle the power, it needs a lot more power to go over 4ghz. The best I've seen is 1.4v for 4.1ghz. Some are needing 1.5-1.7 to go to 4.2 stable all core.

It CAN go high if you have the cooling, but its performance/watt tanks.

But almost fucking no one is running 5Ghz on their 7700k either. And turbo at 3.7ghz on the 8 core 1700 uses less power than the turbo 4.5ghz on the 4core 7700k. For most people it's way more perf/watt whether they OC the 7700k or not. And as games catch up, they will do better on the 1700 like how Watch Dogs 2 does way better on the 6900k than the 7700k and over 50% better than the 7600k.

It's the same thing that Intel is doing. Ryzen consumer is gimped a bit to not cannibalize their 12core and 16 core sales for servers.

Naples will probably have 40 PCI-e lanes on the die and support for at least quad channel memory. But they'll also probably cost $1200+ for the entry level.
>>
>>59220935
naples rumored at 64 lanes octa memory channel 32core
>>
>>59220935
the top naples(32c) will have 128 lanes actually
>>
>>59220868
>1800X is competing specifically with the i7-6y00k, where y>7

which are not workstation. you can go look through Intel's literature, only time workstation appears is on Xeon products.
>>
>>59220860
I'm gonna aim my 1700 for 4.5, kind of like what my 8350 gets right now. Also using a 360mm radiator, but that's just to manage the murderous housefire that is Bulldozer overclocking.

>>59220967
People use 6800k, 6900k and 6950k for workstation loads because of the increased IPC of broadwell-e
>>
>>59220980
>I'm gonna aim my 1700 for 4.5
nah, best you'll get 4.0
disable SMT though people say it helps, and kind overkill for now since it doesn't work for day-to-day
>>
>>59220980
You can also game at an affordable price on used Xeon rigs, doesn't change what the company sells it as.

AMD shilled the 1800X as the ultimate gaming experience and have attempted to stack the deck in so many embarrassing ways and now the narrative is switching for damage control.
>>
>>59221016
we dont know how they oc we literally dont know..

the xfr will go up to 4.0 after that is manual and god help us no one did a manual oc afaik so why bother?
>>
>>59221027
And yes, some Xeons are marketed as workstation CPUs. 6800k's are marketed in "Workstation" systems from multiple places including System 76. And yes, AMD marketed Ryzen as "MUH GAYMIN 8 CORE 16 THREAD". But, I see it as a nice workstation chip, able to do multithreaded processes at a (relatively) affordable price.

we do, air limit with best at a time board(gigabyte) is 3.9 on all cores for now, single core can go 4.1 for a bit
bios will get better, also 1700 doesn't have xfr
>>
>>59221079
>also 1700 doesn't have xfr
All of them have XFR, don't talk out of your ass.
It just has a 50mhz uplift instead of a 100mhz frequency uplift.

Just finished reading benchmarks.
It is clear why /v/ will say it's shit, but for literally everyone but gaymers Ryzen is a god-send.
Good job AMD. Now show us your APUs.
>>
>>59221092
Okay, still probably gonna disable it and shoot for the moon.
If I burn down my house, I'll shitpost about it on /g/.
>>
>>59221092
didn't know that, cool
everyone kept saying it doesn't
>>
>>59221106
Its right in their launch day slide deck.
>>
>>59221096
check on frametimes graphs it runs smoother

>>59221102
apparently threshold is 75C
no software can read it right yet, cpu throttles at 75C that's it
>>
>>59220966
32c one is still rumored at this point. It will surely come at some point, but I'm not sure it'll be there for the launch in a few months.
>>
>>59221136
So it throttles higher than my 8350. Sweet.
>>
>>59221136
>check on frametimes graphs it runs smoother
Can you link me to some test?
>>
>>59221144
everything is rumored thats why they say "up to"
>>
>>59220980
If you have a hard on for gigahurtz, rather than actual performance overall, Ryzen isn't for you. It's not a high clocking chip.

Ryzen is essentially a Phenom IV. It's not Netburst. It's not Bulldozer. It's not Kabylake.

>>59221096
>>59221136
Yeah like that anon said, if you look at frame graphs Ryzen actually performs more smoothly than any Intel CPU, even if the averages aren't as good as the best ones.
Smooth gameplay and high minimum FPS > stutters and high averages.
>>
>>59221187
As I said, I'm gonna AIM for 4.5. I'll take whatever I can get stable. If it's 4.5, cool. If it's less, whatever. If it's something stupid like 3.7 stable, there's something wrong.
>>
>>59215379
I really want to see R5, if the 4 core clock like the 7700k and proven as fast or nearly fast having SMT shit will be tough for intel. But we are 1 month away of that. Shame.
>>
>>59221176
computerbase.de and tomshardware only ones that did it proper
>>
>>59215379
Folks are forgetting that AMD doesn't change sockets constantly, and have actually unified their sockets, so if the current Ryzen cpu ends up bottlenecking at 4k in 2-3 years, you can always buy a drop in replacement.
>>
>>59221239
Yep, AM4(+) will probably be relevant as long as AM3(+) was. Read: 8 years.
>>
>>59221266
>AM4(+) will probably be relevant as long as AM3(+) was
So not at all?
>>
>>59221209
Just understand it uses like 30 watts on average at 3.3ghz. Like 125watts at 4.0ghz. It'll probably use like 300watts at 4.5ghz.
So you need 300w TDP+ of cooling.

I think the record is 5.8ghz on LN2 all core. Not sure if that ran benchmarks. Cinebench record was at 5.3ghz stable on LN2. Getting 4.5ghz on a custom water loop MIGHT be possible but it's like... why? It performs so well at 4.0 and under.
>>
>>59221266
>>59221304
AMD officially confirmed they will keep AM4 alive until 2020, unless new standard like DDR5 or new PCI-E will get released first.
>>
>>59221322
cinebench was a lot higher than this probably close to the 5.8 wr..

the 2449 doesnt come unless amd has a super efficient core working above 100% which is impossible
>>
>>59217384
This. I'm pretty sure everyone pre-ordering Ryzen are gamers who went full IT'S SO CHEAP IT MUST BE CONSUMER without realizing how specialised 8c/16t CPUs are. Not to mention it's literally a completely new architecture.
>>
>>59216396
Naples will be at least quad channel.

AMD might completely fuck Intel in the datacenter space.
>>
Have there been an reviews with I've of the ccx disabled? I'd love to see a preview of the quads.

I bet gaming performance will basically be identical.
>>
>>59215661
>neck and neck
>i7-7700k on average 10-15 fps higher
>>
>>59221575
Yeah I'd like to see 2 cores disabled and whether it gets 33% more cache per core. If it does, it could be way better on 6 cores for games.

I might just get a 1700X if XFR still works when you disable 2 cores and it gets more cache per core. Then I could potentially set a profile that disables 2 cores for games that don't use 8, and have the multithread perf when I need it. That'd be godly when it costs about the same as the 7700k given cheaper mobos.

Why have no reviewers tested this yet? :/
>>
>>59221659
>tfw you can't set a per application core/thread profile.

Dual threaded game that loves L3 cache?
>>
Gskill has their first Ryzen specific RAM kits available
http://fudzilla.com/news/memory/43022-g-skill-unveils-its-amd-ryzen-ready-ddr4-memory

3200mhz CL14 with 1T command rate
3467mhz CL16 with 1T command rate

Corsair and Patriot will also be releasing Ryzen specific kits up to 3600mhz with tight timings.
>>
>>59221617
this cpu is designed for everything but gayming. Why people ain't getting it?
Fucking paid intel shills
>>
>>59221718
Wouldn't it have 33% more l1 and l2 as well, or is only the l3 shared between all 4 cores?

>>59221780
For gaming, imo, get 2400 CL10. That's 8.33ns true latency. It also uses less power and needs a smaller heatsink or no heatsink at all.
3200 CL14 is 8.75.

But if you do some heavy memory bandwidth tasks, the 3200 CL14 can be better.
>>
>>59221915
Its not even bad when it comes to gaming though. Min frame rates and frame times are good. With SMT disabled performance is only 10-15% behind a much higher clocked i7 7700k.
Fanboys have no objectivity.

>>59221942
DRAM is the last level cache in Zen, it needs more bandwidth.
>>
>>59221959
No it needs lower latency, not more bandwidth, for every game in existence.
Unless you can show me proof that some of those shitily programmed games that hit memory a lot like Fallout 4 actually saturate over 60Gb/s of memory bandwidth. I don't remotely believe it and I'm certain you just don't know what you're talking about.

The reason you see higher clocked memory being faster in some games is because higher clocks usually means lower latency, NOT because of the increased bandwidth. But 3200 CL14 is higher latency than 2400 CL10.
>>
>>59222172
DRAM is the last level cache for Zen. It is effectively an L4.
I am not talking about your faggy gaymer benchmarks.
The CPU needs high bandwidth memory with tight timings. Thats specifically why AMD's memory partners are releasing kits between 3200mhz and 3600mhz.

Don't try to correct people who know more than you, you just end up looking like a dumb kid.
>>
>>59222212
>I am not talking about your faggy gaymer benchmarks.
And I said in non-gaming, then yes higher frequency can be better, you dumb piece of shit. Why do you bother replying if you aren't going to bother to read?
But in gaming, it's the effective latency that matters.

Don't try to correct people who know more than you, you just end up looking like a dumb kid.
>>
>>59222319
You're still missing the point, just shitposting like an autistic baby.
Zen uses DRAM as its last level cache. Its memory arrangement is nothing like any of their prior arch, nor any of intel's arch. Your asspulled generalizations are not accurate.
The chip needs high memory bandwidth, because it is an L4 cache.

Shitposting little children like you need to stay in /v/.
>>
How does a 4770k fare against the 1800x?

I'm tempted for an upgrade but completely on the fence
>>
>>59222400
Pretty similar clock for clock, but overclocks beyond 4.1GHz.
>>
>>59222360
You're missing the point, because you're too much of a moron to understand.

Lower latency is what improves performance in EVERY application up until the point that you saturate all the available bandwidth, which is incredibly hard to do when 2400 has 60GB/s of bandwidth.

You have to fill and empty 2x16GB of ram twice a second to saturate that fucking bandwidth.

Jesus you really have no idea how much of a moron you are, do you? No matter how much I clearly explain it to you.
>>
>>59222517
>underage little autistic baby still just talking out of his ass
It is an L4 cache.

Until you can understand this you're just shitposting. Little kid.
>>
>>59222554
>missing the point
You still haven't shown the proof that Ryzen saturates 60GB/s of memory bandwidth in common usage. (ie outside of rendering)

It's irrelevant that it uses it like L4 cache. That doesn't automatically mean it saturates its throughput.

AMD shill crying

>people wondering how much raw cpu power Ryzen has compared to Intel
>show lots of gaming benchmarks
>some cpu-oriented results like AIDA, R15, and Blender
>neglect to do LINPACK and other tests to see CPU horsepower
come on now
>>
>>59217372
I said difficult to parallelize, not impossible. It is plenty possible and likely that in the future games will make better use of more cores and threads, but that day is probably substantially further off than a lot of these AMD shills are trying to make people think.
