Anyone else here got one of these 12nm Ryzen 1600 CPU's? Spoiler Alert!! It's awesome AF.. ;)

Just got mine today and for £85 it is definitely a keeper

Mental how cheep this thing is, and of course how well it performs...

I know, I should have done some comparison benchmarks between this one and the 1600x it replaced.

Yeah I bet you can not beat an Intel 9900KS at 5000Mhz in gaming.Crappy AMD with cheap CPU's and performance.
Are you actually running your ram at 3600Mhz,now that is impressive for the new AMD 1600AF.

Way off topic, been a while since i've seen someone run windows 8

Pay no attention to that, I'm on Windows 10

I guess it's just a Cinebench thing.

That has to be sarcasm, right?

Your meter is correct

 

[keenan]

Your meter is correct

That's about 1/100 I get right, but I'll take it..

Regarding the memory, it's Crucial Ballistix (Micron Rev. E) and it clocked the same on my first gen Ryzen 1600x. It'll do 3800 Cl16 as well, but I like Cl14 better.

Best budget ram you can get!

I only asked about the memory because some people can even get 2933Mhz to boot.

I've seen that as well. I guess it's a lucky mix between motherboard, IMC and memory..

Latency? And what motherboard?

 

[keenan]

Latency? And what motherboard?

AIDA64 says 64.5ns..

Motherboard is a B450 Tomahawk.

Do an r20 run please, for comparative purposes

Just out and about doing family things at the moment, but I'll do it when I get back home.

Thanks that is really really impressive for such a processor.

 

[humbug]

£85.... its like a sick joke for that level of performance.

This is actually a Ryzen 2600 rebranded, they have a much better IMC than the original 1600

Even worse when you know the same CPU is selling for $85 in the US..

A whole £7 less after you add the VAT.
