Yeah most seem to use the Aquantia chipset. They have gained a lot of traction undercutting Intel. The Asus cards come up for around that, but they are usually out of stock. £130-£150 usually gets one.

Just looked at 4 stores and they all had them in stock for under £100 which is the price that others have stated.
Maybe time to update your info on this item!

Very Interesting and shows clear intent from AMD. It might be a good time to pick up some shares in AMD.

It was probably a good time to pick up shares in AMD in 2017 :D

Though It'll still be on a rise for the near future

Went 10Gb this year all new bar the AT2, Asus XG-C100C for £97 and a second for £78, Aquantia AQN-108 £65, Intel X550-T2 £160 and Intel AT2 £69.

In stock Asus cards atm for £98.

Hopefully prices start coming down, the real issue is buying a switch got an open box 10 port D-Link for £360 after discount code!

£36 per port is a bargain. You have put together a hell of a network for the money.

Has amd said much about reducing latency with 4000 series?

I don't think they've said all that much at all about zen 3 details officially...

That said, what did leak out about the design from the milan slides certainly looked like addressing latency is a priority with a move to 8 core CCX (or now just a unified 8 core CCD may be a more accurate description), different cache structure and so on.


Edit - Used my google fu and here is some talk on the leaks/rumours regarding IPC and latency. Obviously nothing is certain until we see official word from AMD but I think it's reasonable to assume they'll be looking to improve what is a known weak point for the architecture relative to intel. https://www.techspot.com/news/83347-zen-3-rumored-flaunting-monumental-ipc-gains-early.html

Nice! Glad it’s a major point for them. It’ll help tons.
 
So 4800x will be great for gaming . I’m sure my 5820k can last til then.

Presumably the 4900x would be 2x octocores with some non working cores on each die.

Minimum. I would actually bet on it being a September release, possibly even November/December time

No rush. My 3600 still feels brand new, only had it for 2 months now. Plus I will be waiting until the 5000 series comes out and get a 4000 series on the cheap at that point. Unless AM5 ends up being even better then expected, I may jump on that and hand what I have down to my partner :D
