AMD RYZEN... A GAME CHANGER!

[LakeeZdino]

 is there any cheap quad core ryzens

[LakeeZdino]

im guessing AMD has ryzen up the ranks...

[grimreeper132]

HOLLY SHIT, AMD HASN'T FUCKED IT UP AND HAS SOME BAD ASS CPUS WHICH ARE NOT ONLY WORTH IT BECAUSE THEY ARE CHEAPER, BUT BECAUSE THEY ARE ALSO GOOD, THANK FUCK, THEY ARE FINALLY NOT MAKING SHIT CPUS AND ARE MAKING GOOD ONES THAT INFORMED PEOPLE MIGHT WANT TO BUY>


YYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(also intel finally has serious competition so will need to start innovating as well, this is going to get interesting  )

yes, they are getting launched at a slightly later date though, for cheaper prices, obviously.

So if R7 1700X can be overclocked just alittle bit, it will be same performance as R7 1800X for 100$ less.

I'm realy interested in review from Linus, when he will be overclocking it.

 

Hopefully AMD gave them some of those CPUs to start testing already

if they haven't received them when they were there, they will receive them very soon (I would imagine within the next two weeks, max)

Yeah I think so too, I'm just a bit excited to see how far will those CPUs overclock.

Goodbye Intel, you scumbags.

I wanna see how they actually compare to their rivals, using independent benchmarks, and from that I will choose who I'll buy from, that being said, AMD is looking like a good choice, and I would imagine you can get a reasonable overclock on them as well, up to or over 5GHz, maybe like is it going to be a small clock boost gain or can it be a big one, and a significant one.

5GHz? Probbably not

I'm hoping on 4,2 to 4,5GHz on R7 1700X.

 

They already did CInebench benchmark, but at stock speeds. Single core performance still isn't great (talking about IPC), but it's getting much better. Probbably as good as Devily's Canyon?

on their last CPU line up it was possible, not saying that that means that it's possible with this one (as this one is actually good) but it might be

Yeah, but stock cloock was 4,7 or 4,8GHz on that CPU.

This time it's 4,0 and that's why I don't expect high clocks.

 

It would be interesting if R7 1700 was able to get to 4,0GHz stable ... same performance as stock R7 1800X for almost 200$ less. That would be great!

For anyone curious about Intel pricing. Whether it's due to Ryzen soft launch or not is up for debate, but Amazon's pricing for the i7 and i3 have dropped. The i7 in particular dropped $10 recently. The i5 isn't really following suit though.

They got the 1800X to 5.1GHz on LN2 already.

[Qub3d]

"It outperforms similarly priced Intel CPUs!"

-Meh

 

"95w TDP on the highest-end chips!"

-Cool, I guess (yawn)

 

"RGB stock cooler"

-WOAH BACK UP WHAT

my 8370 got a 4.8ghz stable overclock@1.5v and it got 5ghz stable at 1.55v(but ran a little hot for my liking) and the stock clock on that is 4ghz. Stock clocks don't represent what can be achieved with an overclock, what it comes down to is silicone lottery and how high the manufacture decided to clock the chip(ie if a chip can do 4.5ghz but the manufacture decided to clock it down to 3.5ghz for reasons, saying it only runs at 3.5ghz means you can only get 4ghz out of the chip overclocked isn't correct), ryzen could be a great overclocker like the FX line up is or it could not, like the phenom line up. We will only know when someone independant tries overclocking these CPUs and posts results

Hopefully we will see even lower prices form Intel. But might take a month or two. Depends how well Ryzen will perform.

Silicon lottery?

I'm just not convinced yet about OC potential.

Will wait few weeks after release to see what OC do users get from those CPUs. Would be nice if R7 1700 would be able to get 4,2GHz on air cooling.

And i7 7700k is able to run at 7GHz on LN2. But average users can get 5,0GHz out of it on water cooling.

 

So 5,1GHz Ryzen on LN2 isn't such a big deal, since i7 7700k can get 2GHz more. I will just wait for OC results of air and water cooling systems. And I do hope they won't dissapoint

I was talking about FX 9590, that have stock of 4,7GHz. I know that base clock doesn't mean much, but they are making 3 differend 8 core CPUs with only difference of clock speed. Well the lowest one has TDP of 65W, but I'm sure it's possible to increase that somehow.

I do hope Ryzen will be able to OC a lot so single threaded performance will increase and be on pair with Intel. Just don't want to get my hopes up before I see acctuall benchmarks and OC from more users.

The R7 1700x might reach 1800x by OC but the amount of money you would put into buying the cooling stuff, you'd rather buy the 1800x(Also it will OC better)

Btw they have RGB stock coolers......

And that's with a beta BIOS. Once the final release BIOS and stability updates roll out it will go higher.

whoa that says 389.99 after sale

I think it's great that AMD just had this release.  Most people, AFIK, thought that it was going to happen during this year's Game Developers Conference.  But that's a crowded event, and next Friday the Nintendo Switch launches, so I think this is great timing.

 

Is AMD still going to make APUs, and if so, when are they going to be released?

yes they plan to release them sometime later this year.
