Anyone by chance seen any clock for clock tests done on the above CPU's ? would just be interesting to see the results.

have you seen any tests with 2/4 cores of the ryzen disabled vs the 8700k?
ha! so compare the different cpus then, not gimp one just to try make it fit! i wonder how my cpu does with 9 cores disabled vs an e6600 , oh no wait, i dont!
This is true
Now the burning question in my mind is how the heck did you manage getting the 2700x stable at that clock speed?![]()
Ahh should have knownA little bit of help from frosty the snowman and some dice dice baby.
you get your hopes up that there was air water 4.9ghz 2700x'sAhh should have knownthanks for sharing..
Noo never thought it was going to be on air.. a silly part of me had thought perhaps some golden chip on an excessive water cool loop(with cold water) and if not that then maybe phase changeyou get your hopes up that there was air water 4.9ghz 2700x'sif only they would be so so fast

For the unaware, IPC (instructions per cycle) provides a good indicator of how fast a processor is and having both a high IPC with a high operating frequency is the best combination for maximum performance. Such is the case for Intel's 8th-Gen Coffee Lake CPUs, and although AMD is clearly trailing when it comes to frequencies, the company appears to have really closed in on Intel's IPC performance. That's likely the reason why so many of you have been asking for this kind of test.
To see how much headway AMD has made here, we're going to limit as many variables as we can, while also keeping things as realistic as possible. The first and most obvious step is to remove core frequency from the equation and to do this we've locked all of the CPU cores at 4GHz. Any type of boost technology has been disabled and the cores cannot go past 4GHz.
