*** AMD "Zen" thread (inc AM4/APU discussion) ***

Yeah...love it, this is why we have needed AMD to be competitive for some time, and AMD know it. They know if they come out guns blazing they will win a lot of kudos from the slightly older crowd who remember AMD64 v P4 etc.
Keller...well he seems to have done it again, even at BW IPC levels, these chips are looking smoking for the $ compared to what Intel have on the market.

If even half of the details we've seen recently are true, then AMD have exceeded everyone's expectations, and their engineers have much to be proud of. Hopefully they will maintain this in their refreshes etc.

Agree
There going to mop up with the old skool crowd
so from what i am seeing Keller has done it again :)

Go AMD
 
Looking at Zen leaked performance I am ready for some massive improvement over my old system

ALL ABOARD
 
Its one of those bullet trains, heres the launch if these overclock nice

Disappointing if that turns out to be the case. I think I read a link earlier claiming that the 8 cores were dropping on the 28th with the rest on the 2nd of March - can't remember where that was now, possibly a load of rubbish too.

It would have been nice to see at least one CPU per core count at launch.

Isnt this always the way, the premium stuff launches first. I imagine vega will be similar, paper launch for the lower key stuff. apu 2018 ?

cpu-z 8 core stock old server chip if I disable 2 cores scores 5721. single 1035
Thats with 20 meg 3rd level cache, it might help benchmark more then real world. I heard the memory timings for ryzen are too slack to give proper results also?
 
Please correct me if I can wrong. So we are looking at:

Ryzen 6C12tT at 65w TDP with 3.3Ghz base with 3.7Ghz boost scoring 1889/12544.

Vs

Intel 6850K 6C12T at 140w TDP with 3.6Ghz base with 3.8Ghz boost and 4Ghz single core boost scoring 1940/11170.

So the Ryzen CPU single core performance is 3% slower and multicore performance is 12% faster at a lower frequency, with 54% less power consumption and roughly 50% of the cost.

Is that not too good to be true?
