Ryzen "2" ?

Looking good. You can do so much better with your memory though.

3600 is not stable, it crashed 10 minutes after that AIDA64 run, still made me laugh that I was even able to boot at that speed.

what sort of rendering or calculations are You doing ??


So far best Test Video I'w seen around
5ghz vs 4.3 1080p 1440p 4k in 11 games and 8 apps
2700x is very close to 8700k Zen 2 should pass it.

Cross platform app development, a lot of programs running and regular compiling for Android / iOS / UWP / electron, etc.
 
Sorry for the annoying question but I have a Ryzen 2700x with the stock wraith cooler and an Rog Strix x470 motherboard. The idle cpu temps seem kind of high. There at 45 to 50 degrees most of the time is that normal?
 
thought id have some fun whilst i had an Aorus B450 board for a little period before it heads down south , will see if i can get a strix one.
awaiting thermal laser to check temps.

m 2700 chip is useless , can jus manage 4.1ghz with 1.44v and can take ram of 3633 hz ... so thought i'd load a tone of volts through 4ghz and see how the board fared as some reviwers slate (software temps) and some say its fine (thermal cams)

managed to test over an hour but daughter turned off the Pc (only 1) , so will try a record temps over 2 hour period , AIO being used to no direct VRM cooling bar good airflow .
takes about 2 mins to return to 40c for VRM

TMPIN4 is vrm

running stock

time for Ram... Ultra handled 3400 and Aorus 7 did 3633hz and x470 strix did 3600 ( 8 pack 4000hz) - again poor chip personally

Will new graphics cards open up the fps difference between 2700x and 8700k at 1440p?

Depends. Would Nvidia fix their drivers to work properly with Ryzen?
Because here we are 18 months later and there still issues.
Also would those 8700K systems have all the BIOS security patches or left untouched not to lose performance but being prone to hacking?

However given the rumoured RTX2080 8% over the GTX1080Ti FE is just less than the GTX1080Ti Xtreme/Lightning (etc top of the range AIB ones).
So I can tell you that if you play AAA games that push the factory OC GTX1080Ti at 100% they will still hit 100% regardless the CPU and there won't be perf difference.
 
The issues are Ryzen side, the single core performance difference if you count in clock speeds & IPC is close to 30%, of course it's going to have an impact on gaming, a workload which has an affinity for single core speeds.
It's going to be interesting to see the articles on launch, no doubt the performance difference is going to open up since the previous delta limiting factor was GPU performance.

That being said, at 1440p the differences should still be pretty minimal @lnoton
You can see 1440p testing here with a 1080 Ti: https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/Ryzen_Threadripper_2950X/14.html <5% between the 8700K and 2700X at 1440p.
 
Is it really shots because the i5 8400 has much better frametimes in the pre-streaming part of that marketing meme. Look at Rainbow 6 Siege for example, significantly better frametimes, guess that's why they had to do ">180 fps" instead of showing actual fps.
I really dislike marketing like that, just show the R5 being better at transcoding video or streaming without doing some >180 fud.

Edit: From what I see they weren't even using the same scenes for the two processors, I really dislike this kind of misleading marketing.

Funny thing is I value stability and no faffing about with bios etc. settings far more than faster streaming/encoding and for purely gaming the i5 8400 is still better :D
