I’ll believe it when I see it. Would be great if true but feel very skeptical about ‘twice as fast’ at £500.

To be honest I think Intel's biggest problem is they've run out of numbers. I guess they can release an i9-9999K?
Not sure if its been mentioned, but Lisa Su's interview basically confirms more cores are coming
She specifically mentions the extra space on the chip for another chiplet, so 12c and 16c seem very likely to be coming
The positioning of the CPU die leaves no room for interpretationThe Epyc reveals, with naked die on show and this Ryzen teaser have been uncharacteristically well done for AMD
One 8 core ccx, one latency penalty gone. DRAM controller moved to another chip, a potential new penalty introduced. I think Zen 2 is going to be a very mixed bag depending on the application at hand.
Still probably going to go jump at a 16c variant though
I hope AMD keep pushing as hard as they can and don't rest on their laurels like Intel did for so long.
In all honesty, it all sounds too ludicrously good to be true, and the scary thing it, that probably means it is true lol.
Mid range chip on gimped ram smashes competitions best chip while costing half the price.
As it's been said If the above is true, Intel are going to need some kind of JuJu ASAP to get over this lol
Of course, it was obvious with anyone with a brain to see.
But there were a couple of extreme intl fanboys on here a couple of days ago, and now they've disappeared![]()
If the 8c/16t part matches the Intel flagship, why wouldn't a 16c/32t version be nearly twice as fast? You're just spouting out of context nonsense as usual.what is even funnier is over last few days its gone from close to intel or faster to now possibly twice as fast LOL. the forums are great entertainment.
