I'm not sure whether I believe this, and I've yet to see another reviewer produce similar results, but if there's any truth to this video I'm seriously considering buying a Ryzen system. I was pretty hesitant after hearing of its poor gaming performance at launch in comparison to the 7700k, but this certainly changes things. Is faster ram really the silver bullet for Ryzen gaming performance?

Looks like regardless of the memory used it's still a smoother experience overall
>>
>>59603063
A lot of games are memory bound if you remove the GPU bottleneck, so giving a 7700k faster memory will increase FPS there too. Gaming benchmarks are worthless for comparing CPU performance.

He already covered this though, apparently there was no benefit in increasing memory speeds above 3200mhz on the Intel system.
>>
>>59603063

>Ryzen 1700x + 3600mhz memory = 7700k gaming performance

Only in well threaded, well optimized games. Any shitty console port, any game made by Ubisoft for example or any emulation still favors i7s.

Although! Ryzen is good enough to a degree that these shitty games are still very much playable with decent to good performance.

Right now core for core and clock for clock things look like this

>GAMIN'

non-OCed Ryzen = locked Intel core for core

OC'ed Ryzen is > equivalent priced Intel CPU EXECPT i7 where they trade blows but 4/8 is starting to become a ''corelet''

Ryzen curb stomping Intel all over the place.

Thanks for the honest answer anon.

>>59603616

Consoles have used multi core/thread processors since PS3, specially PS3 since it was sooo heavily threaded. Although since it was a different architecture and operating system, it requiered a tiring work to optimize for PC for but since new PS4/XboxOne uses AMD X86 arcihtecture and XboxOne uses Microsoft/Dx, it's easier.

BUT! There is a significant BUT! here. Console optimization works differently. It's not as simple as coding a program for general Linux/Microsoft computer. They optimize the software for THE HARDWARE ON THE CONSOLE and nothing more. Just that hardware alone gets optimized.

If developers were actually decent human beings who cared about their consumers, (PC side) it would be easy enough for them to optimize the game, specially on AMD hardware as Consoles uses 4+4 AMD Jaguar APU (which one of the reasons why (2+2/3+3/4+4 AMD CPUs aren't that effected by gaming performance compared to 4+0 core counterparts) but they are not. As Deskop CPUs are much stronger both by IPC and Clock, they just dump down the optimization process.

Hence the reason Far Cry primal that can run 1080P30fps on a shitty AMD laptop APU that is 4+4 from 2013 will struggle to get past 70 fps with Ryzen and a 1080ti and the reason clock monster/housefire i7 at 5Ghz can reach 100+ fps.

>They optimize the software for THE HARDWARE ON THE CONSOLE and nothing more. Just that hardware alone gets optimized.


To add that, as PCs have so much variation and developers are such pieces of shits, they pretty much either use Microsoft's compilier to do their work.

So in consoles there is this

Program directly speaks to hardware and talks to him it can undersrtand the best

But in PCs it happens like this

Program dumps all of it's requiered work on the Microsoft, Microsoft than translates that pile of knowledge and tries to distribute the workload between cores. Ofcourse, this dumping can be done more ''gracefully'' such as the case with GTA 5 or Star Citizen as these will let Microsoft use as much as threads as there are on the market right now.

Microsoft is also at the blame. Since they are pushing their ''we are google play, applestore'' and Xbox is the gaming platform shit, they really don't fund Dx12 as much as they could or should.

Vulkan which is developed by a such a small company compared to Microsoft has better ''relationship'' with hardware in Microsoft developed operating system compared to Microsofts own drivers! That's how much Microsoft and developers screws us.

>>
>>59603964

It would be ridiculus for games to be effected by X+X architecture to begin with, specially games that have also been optimized for consoles.

Consoles use 4+4 APU, I think it's one of the reasons why PC exclusive titles such as Total War Games have such shitty performance on Ryzen to begin with. Games simply doesn't know what to do with CCX architecture.

You can reach 3.8 on 1700 with stock coolers anon.

3.9 is a guranteed clock for 1700x as much 5.0 is on 7700k

It's worth saying that there are reports about last Windows update did fix Ryzen scheduling to some degree which benefited gaming workloads in addition to others.

https://twitter.com/BitsAndChipsEng/status/843864982320267265

That would explained the huge performance uplift seen in OP video compared to old results and disabling a CCX core making small difference now in the new hardware unboxed video. With all evidence, windows scheduling was broken for Ryzen imho. With the new microcode and faster ram it helps Ryzen even more, Zen was designed as a server architecture, faster RAM benefits it a lot

That shit dwelling pajeet is full of crap and he's literally the only one among dozens of reviewers out there to get such results. Just yesterday DigitalFoundry already proved that Ryzen still performs like dog shit even with increased RAM speeds.

Every test I've seen with a competent GPU at it's stock settings or OCed has shown the Intell CPU beating AMD.

>>59603099
It's not the same. Basically, AMD's infinity fabric runs at half ram speed. So the frequency your ram is running at has a greater effect than on Intel systems.

Total war doesn't run well on anything
They only moved to a 64bit engine with their most current game, and supposedly they're implementing DX12 which has been a beta feature for 10 months (despite being a game that AMD supposedly helped with, although the DX12 implementation is better on AMD cards than nvidia ones)

It has been an Intel supponsored game through the ages, I have played that game since the first shogun and I can't remember a time that it didn't have Intel logo on it.

For such a CPU bound game, they sure as hell ''hate'' using more than 4 threads. I don't think it will get better anon, same story with WoW and same with Starcraft.

To this day, if you trick the game engine with ''geniune intel'', AMD performance improves by 10-20%.

Nice joke. Its not about the money at all. Modern ThinkPads are shitty MacBook clones, I already have a MacBook around. Their construction is low grade. Reminder, IBM barely made any profit on their ThinkPads, as the years went buy Lenovo found ways to cut costs which is why we have cheap ThinkPads today still going on sale for $1,000+ despite costing maybe around $350 to build.

Can someone with a fucking brain please just buy a 1700 and do extensive testing. How does oc headroom change with cores or smt disabled, full ram scaling, etc. I just feel like there is still a bunch of missing information. With games using so few threads maybe going down to 4 cores same ccx no smt for increased oc headroom with top tier ram will make it a monster?

rossman already debunked this, they still have the magnesium alloy rollcage, they have carbon fiber lids, everything else is a high quality plastic (it doesnt feel cheap)

25% of 1700 can reach 4ghz so its a bit of a gamble, higher clocks with one CCX disabled is a given
>>
>>59605286
But how much higher, is it worth it? Where is the sweet spot? How much variance in overclock from board to board? How much does smt impact headroom? Not expecting answers but I'm just saying that I haven't seen this explored in depth
>>
>>59605319
the 1700 is worth it, the 1700x and 1800x are just for the people not willing to bet on the silicon lottery, if you wand a almost gurrented 4-4.2 ghz get a 1700x or 1800x
>>
>>59605374
>>59605319

I could see why someone would get the 1700x.

on the 1700, all cores run at a max of 3200 with I'm not sure how many reaching 3700 (and having an XFR boost of 3750) the 1700x has all cores reach at least 3.4 with whatever number of cores reaching 3.8 with XFR of 3.9
and 1800x has them all run at least 3.6 and reach 4.0 (4.1 with XFR)

Yeah it being bottlenecked by the GPU is why better CPU MEMORY SPEEDS make it faster, and why the 7700k has shit min frames in half the games.

Tell me about it. Sitting here with a Prime B350 Plus.
Just updated the newest BIOS 0513, overclocking is still nonexistent. You cannot set base clock, or multiplier on this board. It is either locked to auto, or it is locked to normal base clock, and a multiplier of 33. It'll run at a fixed frequency of 3.3ghz, I have no other control than that. It'll show fields for certain settings, but you cannot alter them whatsoever, some of them display readings of 0 which is impossible.
Apart from the Ryzen Master tool there is no control over clock speeds whatsoever. On a board that is supposed to support overclocking.

ASUS is so absolutely shit I can't even fully articulate it.

The system isn't starved for DRAM bandwidth. The data fabric is set to a 2:1 ration with RAM speed, faster memory equates to faster data fabric. Faster data fabric means lower latency and higher bandwidth between CCXs.

Adding more memory channels would be completely useless.

Some of these 'reviewers' don't even do a fresh instal of Win10 and games. It's already been shown that some games hold over their settings from the previous install(s). Like if they ran on an Intel chip and them switched to a AMD chip it would perform worse because the settings for the game are still thinking a Intel is installed and/or pulled the settings from online. Witness F1 for instance.
