This is logically fallacious. Just because someone is a "YouTuber" it doesn't preclude them for having a grasp of what they're talking about.

AMD THREADRIPPER VS INTEL SKYLAKE X

the point is people that rely on video editing and stability as their income and job won't rely on ryzen alone.
i, and pretty much everyone I know (that isn't a rabid amd fanboy) have had hosts of issues with the ryzen platform, it's a very immature platform that still needs a good 6+ months of work to get stable.

Except the fact is there are youtubers out there that are using them. His argument is flawed.
But so is yours by discounting them based on them being YouTubers or streamers.
Soldato
I was talking about 24/7 use in the field with CAD and he chimes in with well x youtuber isn't using it so its no good. A stupid reply imo.
Just searching for ryzen workstation in youtube proves he is also wrong.
I'm not saying he's right. I'm just pointing out that some of your responses weren't logical.

so when we getting 5ghz 7820x packages? need one in my life

Worst?

Maybe so, I've also had other encounters in other threads with him spouting allsorts. I'd rather not see it so ignore list it is
No arguing from me, I am genuinely interested in these chips, temps and power consumption as well as price will have a big influence over the decision to buy 100+ of these.
Why not just literally ignore him instead of using the ignire list feature?Maybe so, I've also had other encounters in other threads with him spouting allsorts. I'd rather not see it so ignore list it is

My uni has a full suite of Ryzen machines (40+) used for coding, compiling, rendering, graphics and video production.
There have been no reports of any of the issues you mention (expected as they are all factory default setups and not OC'd). They are seriously considering adding threadripper stations to the suite.
So you tried overclocking and had an issue?
Case closed.
Soldato
None that I have seen.
so I guess the thing to learn with ryzen is you can't overclock and get stability? sounds worse than Intel saying to reduce overclocks to reduce temps on 7700ks....
kinda pointless having unlocked sku's and not being able to overclock on ryzen, no?
anyway, I'm just super excited for skylake x, means I can play arma 3 with fastest single core performance AND do multi threaded workloads! finally the best performance of 8 cores without sacrificing single core performance, glad Intel managed to bring this to market.
can't wait for coffeelake, should be a 5ghz+ 6 core mainstream chip, got a few friends waiting on builds so I can use these hopefully.
You seem to have a few things confused - Zeppelin is the core codename no? the CPUs are produced at Globalfoundries using Samsung's 14nm process but all reports indicate it is producing worse results than the same process at Samsung. The original run of Ryzen reportedly was done on an implementation that more or less resembled LPE but GF has since revised their production with a plus variant but reports on it still aren't great.

I think your relevance stats are off, have you actually tested this? Judging by how many people bought 980's and 1080's i'd say that figure is closer to 76%.
