AMD Zen 3 (5000 Series), rumored 17% IPC gain.

If true, might cause me to reconsider the 5900x. 5800x might do...
Ain't the 8700k a 6 core?That seems low. My 9900k (same chip really) at 52/48 sc:
Mind you yours looks low compared to the AMD 6 core.
Explain.
Insane ryzen domination.
I had to have a little chuckle to myself when i saw ^^^^^ this.
Intel spent not a small amount of money to get Passmark to weight results in favour of Intel SKU's. The very first Ryzen 3 to run Passmark 10 blows Intel into the weeds...................oh the irony

we are comparing single core
Tick tock, as Intel would say.
You only need multiple cores when your single core isn't fast enough
If that set of results are true, no way in Zamunda are these chips staying at RRP for long.
1.21 gigawatts.
1.21 gigawatts.
Depends if people want to pay the premium... most AMD customers are used to 'value' so post-launch sales might not be as strong as hoped.
That’s what I’m saying. These chips could offer a little too much value.
Too much performance for them to offer it at good value, you mean?
I complained about pring at launch, but it seems that Zen 3 money may be as fast as Zen 2 money in multi-threaded applications, and a LOT faster in single threaded stuff.
If Zen 3 money is indeed faster than Zen 2 money, AMD have not raken a step back in value.
Breaking-even in MT isn't all that impressive, but it's not a step backward. ST is very impressive if it holds up in reviews.
The 3600 was as fast as the 2700 so the performance gains are similar this gen to last gen. Why would this gen be worth more than last gen?
Unfortunately by that logic you invite AMD to price their next-gen 4 core at £300, if it matches the 5600 in MT and beats it in ST.
Where does that rabbit hole end?
You can look at in a few ways. The more value you offer the more the demand on production and the supply chains. The is danger is, if supply outstrips demand value is out the window and the supply chain sets the price for you.
You have no idea about the supply situation though do you?
