the 1800x falls behind sandy bridge more often than not

it's slower than Haswell, broadwell, skylake and kabylake, soon to be coffeelake too.
so ryzen is only 5 gens behind instead of 10 gens behind Intel![]()
Except most other decent sites show that its 10% behind kabylake. So if its 5 gens behind intel has been milking you for 2% per gen


Take away the clock speed advantage and there is nothing in it.
