Ryzen "2" ?

Its professional ass covering.

So in the instance of someone saying the cpu/board is damaged after they bolted a saucepan to it AMD can tell them to **** off because they bundled a perfectly good cooler designed for it.

This requires further stupidity on the part of the user to demonstrate that yes, they did use an inappropriate cooling method but it's still something AMD can use to filter out BS claims.

Yeah that PBO looks nuts, 140w???? whats it doing there? Did it result in any more Mhz?
But XFR and PB are stock chip level jobs surely...

You think MCE Coffee Lake is any better?

Also Tomshardware got even crazier readings for 8700K with "automatic" AVX offset and heavy watercooling avoiding thermal throttling:

That gamersnexus article points to "crashing on ASUS Z370 board in Blender" yet no hits on google, did the article get pulled on asus request or something?
 
If this iteration does indeed achieve 4.5 - 4.8GHz as in the posted above links, then Ryzen 3000 may most certainly achieve around 5.0GHz on the twelve cores easily.

Your Ryzen processor warranty states you may only use the stock cooler

Just as dumb as Intel stating overclocking voids the warranty and therefore users shouldn't overclock their K-series unlocked CPUs because it gets hot. :rolleyes:

Forget the fact that the Ryzen 1 X CPUs don't even come with coolers! :D

No-one has hit 4.8 GHz, as I said it's clearly a timer bug. Ryzen 1 had the same issue - everyone was saying "omg it can run at 4.5+ GHz if you just let it sleep then wake!" without realising how dumb that sounded. Of course it ended up being a Windows timer issue.

4.5 GHz with reference clock overclocking is certainly interesting but until more evidence surfaces, I'd suggest it's only possible with golden samples.

There will be a 2800X which will come with higher frequencies, also the golden bins shall go for the Threadripper 2.
Meanwhile, people achieve much more than 4.8GHz, actually 6.0GHz.

What single core scores are people getting on cinebench - clocks/mem speed etc? 170-180?

On the previous thread page I see a 188 cb score ;) :p

Sigh, do I really have to add "with air/water cooling" to my previous statement?

Our knowledge on all the samples that go in people's hands is too scarce. I believe 4.8GHz single core boost is possible in cool, under water conditions.
