I could make an opposite argument, that 12 and 16 core workloads are more likely to be starved for memory bandwidth and will like high clocks more than low latency.im guessing, those on 8/6 cores and single chiplets may go for 2:1 ratio. No need for Infinity fabric ( as much) and op for the higher ram speed. were as 12/16 core uses may wish to keep infinity fabric speed as high as possible, though 3733! is nothing to scoff at

yeah, just double read after posting and indeed sounds that way. either way. people are going to have SO MUCH FUN this time messing around with benches... for fun and performance... not trying to get ryzen 1700 working at 2600hz on a £200 board 2 years ago hahaha
terms of that Gamingcashe, 12 cores works out with highest of 70/12=5.8MB per core. 8 and 16 cores is 4.5MB . like Tamzzy has mentioned will have to wait till reviews but seems might be swayed over to 12 cores for gaming. 6 cores also has 5.8MB per core- in theory .
safe to say intel will have to do something with their i5 chips...

Intel will have an update on 8th of July, and they'll claim that it invalidates all reviewers benchmarks as they can now get [insert a completely fabricated number here] performance uplift due to it.

They have a HT version of the 9700K. It is called the 9900K.release HT versions and hope no more HT bugs and issues pop up
Some would say that they have a HT version of the 9600K too. They call it the 8700K.

Not really, since they are going for the novelty effect, for 7nn chips being released on the 7th day of the 7th month.
Weird since it is a sunday yeah.

7 7 7 ... number of the beast ...
and they call him, Ryzen under NDA not even meant to talk about release dates
Haha, or maybe it's better. They might save you the pain from knowing the impossible pricing - 500 quids for a processor and 300 quids for the mobo.
Not nice, at all.

Yeah, I queried Tom Logan on twitter, he said Google is your friend.
Saw in another report, NDA on day of release - which is a shocker imo.
That would, delay me to purchase my upgrades.
Waiting on Gamers Nexus review, and a few other reports first.

That's the price.
We don't get pricing in pounds.
Convert the dollar to pounds and add 20%.

AMD ought to lift the release embargo the day before pre-orders go live. They seem to be confident that they have a great CPU lineup, so why not back that up by giving consumers all the info they need prior to purchase? I don't like buying things without all the info to hand, so I'll be waiting until we've seen some reviews of the CPUs and boards. If that means missing out on the first batch then so be it.
