> "It's only good for workstations" le meme
Stop repeating that stupid meme, it's not good for Workstations either in most cases. Only for 1% of the time you ever use a computer you leave it the fuck alone to render something. For 99% of the time, you will be actually using the computer in an interactive manner and interactivity can not be parallelized well on CPU space.
Let alone if you knew anything about computers you'd know most of the parallelism nowadays is done by GPUs, NOT CPUs, and that notion might become even MORE prevalent, NOT less with the newest GPU APIs that offload even more and more stuff from the CPU space to the GPU space even if they claim to help more at multithreading *but that is not their main advantage, the batch commands are.

more cores at lower cost = more virtual servers at higher profit margin

i host minecraft servers for a living. i have to keep my costs low enough so that kids can get mommy to buy them a server

once the costs on the 1700 model come down a bit i can stop scouring ebay for old overworked 8 core xeons that i try to push a few extra months of life out of

Exactly, real world cases of real world workstations often just not need parallelism on the CPU level for 99% of the time.
In fact, Autodesk DOES have software that can render offline, like CAD software that does even ray tracing.
But, most people either never use that, or when they do, it often can or should better be done with GPUs.

Really. IMO it is the major feature of Vulkan, but all reviews I've read when Vulkan came out did not pay enough attention to it. But you can learn about it from Khronos conferences videos on YouTube. The problem is that Nvidia is not going rewrite their libraries for Vulkan for obvious reasons, and Havok who were a large provider of physics libraries is now acquired by M$. And as you know M$ has their on API. Most likely M$ bought Havok to prevent them from building APIs for Vulkan.

It's amazing that AMD shills will take the fact that 7700k runs HIGHER frames by default and because of that has higher drop with OBS and try to use that as proof that AMD is better.

d)the minor core parking which is currently being fixed to release on the 17.3.1 drivers

If you knew anything about computing you'd know GPUs do most of the parallelism nowadays. That will not diminish, that will strengthen as years go by.

On interactive desktops - i.e. Workstations and Gaming boxes - you can't even paralellize the CPU space that efficiently.

Even when you desperately try to google a niche use to satisfy your asperger's, the GPUs move there when they can.

I'll red pill you on that.

Step 1: anon wants a cpu currently for his new PC he will build imminently

Step 2: anon thinks he found a cpu but he's not even sure if it's right and he might have cognitive dissonance(google it) about it which is non-conscious

Step 3: anon comes here to shitpost and see if he can trigger someone that knows more than him to convince him otherwise(again that might be a non-conscious thing)

In general most of 4chan works this way. People with asperger's about their pick, are not even sure why they are so sure about it (they have asperger's). Therefore they come here to screech about it with shit proof until someone proves them otherwise.

It's a non-conscious defense mechanism of autistic sperglords.

4chan thrives in them.

I've repeatedly told you you are a niche use.
read the OP again carefully this time:
>inb4 niche-usage guy that runs some kind of mesh software with his professor.
you are still a tiny minority

>>59281933
You've been accusing everyone who recognizes your retarded posts as insane. It seems like you're the insane one here since you keep on expecting the same person.
>>
>>59281933
>i-it's niche use because it hurts my feelings
INTEL itself is switching to MOAR cores, your tiny minority meme is at end.
>>
>>59281933
>I-I-I DON'T LIKE THIS USE CASE BECAUSE IT HURTS MY FEELINGS
If you're going to argue "niche" and your pathetically vague definition of it, I might as well bash the 7700k as horrible value and tell everyone to get Pentiums instead.
>>
>>59281948
What is insane is to talk about your niche uses. Open your eyes to the real world. Very few people run render farms on their workstation PC (or purely single-threaded too, why not). Most AMD memesters have the delusion the average Workstation is purely multhreaded and in a non-interactive manner on top too.
>>
>>59281973
Still trying to weaseling your way out? Why is INTEL adding more cores? Are they delusional? Stupid? They want to lose money even though they have the PERFECT balance?
>>
>>59281951
Intel has nothing to lose. They move into 10nm right now. The average work PC will not stop needing mainly 2-3 strong cores.

If anything, they gain from shutting up the mor kors memesters than by actual necessity.

The overwhelming majority of work PCs do not require more than 2c/4t yet.
>>
>>59281973
>non-interactive manner
You do realize that people who are working regularly run more than one process at a time, right? I'm not even talking about background processes, I'm talking about multiple programs that are being used concurrently. You may not be able to parallelize either of them because of your "muh interactivity" buzzword but having two cores running two separate programs is still a much better choice than having to cram both of them into one core.
>>
>>59282000
Please go learn how basic computing works. Your opening of multiple programs does not make you need moar cores. The overwhelming majority of people that do that have almost 100% of the background processes be idle on ~0% CPU usage on them.

Even if you did find a niche usage, you still found a niche usage, you didn't change the average work PC.

Average work PC is used for browsing the internet not used for heavy lifting talked in this thread. So do you claim the SWEET SPOT is now 2c/4t?
>>
>>59281989
They have nothing to lose. They move into 10nm now, it's practically just throwing you a bone.

If anything, they gain more by shutting up the moar core memsters than by actual necessity.

Even if you do find a niche usage, most work PCs can still use main 2-3 strong cores.
>>
>>59282034
4c/8t is pretty strong as a sweet spot for the - what we call - "power user". So it is a good spot for the average /g/ lurker. But, why not, one could claim that the average Workstation hasn't moved yet from a necessity of 2c/4t for a sweet spot.

Though they might move also to 4core/4thread soon.

Due to strong *G*PU APIs, that need slows down.
>>
>>59282032
>niche usage is a buzzword now
I think looking up reference, doing some image editing and having a video render in the background isn't as "niche" as a server farm. That seems like a reasonable scenario. Oh wait, is it not "common" enough for you? I might as well say gaming is fucking niche and tell you that you wasted money on a 7700k
>>
>>59282063
>what we call - "power user"
>>
>>59282064
It is reasonable for you, but it's still a minority usage, the overwhelming majority of work PCs aren't using more than 2-3 strong cores.
>>
>>59282063
>what we call - "power user"
What you call power user is can be called a niche, the word that you parrot again and again.

>>59282043
>it's OK when Intel does it.
talk about being hypocritical
>>
>>59282086
>What you call power user is can be called a niche
In this case it makes your case worse because I said there not even 4c/8t might be needed by actually 2c/4t for workstations or 4c/4t later.

>>it's OK when Intel does it.
No, I told you they're throwing bones, mr strawman. Intel are not saints, or evil. They are better at marketing than AMD.

AMD are idiots for not releasing 4c/8t cpus too first thing, exactly like Intel does. That way you make good memes.
>>
>>59282080
and I don't game in a quadro. What the fuck is your point? That regular computer users aren't going to use 16 threads for their facebook machines? No shit, retard. Why the fuck are you even here telling us that the existence of this processor isn't going to change the way you use your shit? You can't even define what "niche" you're talking about. At this rate, the only thing that wouldn't be considered as "normal usage" are cubicle-farm office-workers that only need a core 2 duo for their daily use.

Funny because you admitted you have no case about sweet spots after all. AMD is serving 8c/16t for the HEDT and makes it for a very competitive price. 4 and 6 core variants are on its way. Intel switching to 6 cores will make even more workstation oriented programs be optimized for utilizing more threads in near future

You spew some good ignorance for entertainment. Intel has different silicon for mainstream and HEDT, AMD has a single 8-core die and 4-6 core variants are going to be recycled from the dies that doesn't cut for the full thing.
