its almost like they are selling a 1k cpu for 329 usd or 500 usd for 1800x right?

It has half the PCIe lanes, and half the memory channels. It is half the platform, so it makes sense that it is half the price.

The 1800X makes a good dedicated render box, but cannot compare with Intels HEDT platform for many use cases.

liked Skyrim better and like Zelda better than both, you really can't play witcher 3 on handheld also the story was meh for me. graphic is nice but not everything in a game.

Well I suppose every one does have their specific tastes hahah I'm the full contrary, I would put The Witcher above Skyrim any day.

 

I suppose this latest Zelda is great indeed but I have the same issue with Playsation and TLoU/RDR2 , not worth buying a console just for 1 or 2 games...

 

I still haven't given up hopes FFXV will be ported to PC, that one I really wanna give a go.

A thread full of shit and one snide comment 

 

Maybe we should get that one from the amd reddit to pit against our boy

 

100 bucks for the home team

we all have preferences, witcher 3 is too much work for me personally too linear. i really love the mod community but truth to be told i haven't touched either game in a long time. even my parents who doesn't like to game liked the new Zelda game and currently playing it, for me its worth buying because most of my friends, family have bought it.

You're right, this is all your fault. Go sit in the corner and think about what you've done.

 

That'll teach you to try to derail a shitfest thread.

I'd like to see the links too. I consider myself part of the tech community, and I've never heard of the channel before.

So will this affect the R3 and R5 processors?

as far as I can tell, both AVX2 and FMA3 is used by ZFS file system - so, that's kinda' big in Linux world

So hold on, what you're saying is that ZFS wouldn't work on Ryzen? That's rather unfortunate

Just to actually add something of substance to this, here is the article on PCPer: https://www.pcper.com/news/Processors/Ryzen-Locking-Certain-FMA3-Workloads

 

Their looking at this as a potential power delivery issue through the control fabric to the chip.  In closing on this, they have confirmed from AMD:

Quote

At posting AMD has confirmed this issue and that a fix will be provided via motherboard firmware update.  More than likely this comes in the form of an updated AGESA protocol.

 

[divito]

As others have said, seems similar to Skylake issues. Glad it's been addressed so quickly and will have firmware updates coming.

[XenosTech]

At this rate anything AMD does even if vastly good will always be ridiculed

Well, he has sourced himself for credibility.

I'm sensing a patrick moment here

I see more hate on AMD than anything in a lot of posts on here while Intel and Nvidia get love love love.  A lot of the speculation stuff/hype on AMD is from "leaks" that have no real credibility to them.  Then when those leaks are proven wrong AMD gets crap for it.  To be fair, AMD does do a bit of hyping on their end, but it's not as bad as the "leaks".

People tend to go full retard with the leaks than AMD's own hype and during this hype phase they raise their expectations to space

Adored isn't sophisticated enough, he never discusses anything as deep as memory....And that's basically @MageTanks life

To be fair, I work 11 hour shifts and don't spend a lot of time on Youtube, so me not knowing somebody doesn't mean much. I represent a very niche part of the tech community, but I like to think the part I represent is still very real, lol.

i've seen quite a few videos this week refering to this clueless amd fanboy who never test anything on his own and cherry pick computerbase.de biaised benchmarks to prove his crazy claims...here are two of the videos i remember where his case was discussed...lot of it happening on twitter as well...tech city, tech of tomorrow, bitwit, pauls hardware and hardware unboxed all debunked his silly claims...the clearly is an AMD twit just look at the titles of the videos on his youtube channel...it's just plain funny!

 

 

 

This, watch the whole video:

11 hours .-. jeez that would send me insane. I can pare stand the 8 and a half hours I work, but I was just saying that because the tech community is quite large and one can not say the whole community

Bur Pascal is basically Maxwell with better efficiency and clocks. AFAIK nothing has changed about those two architectures.

I watched all those vids already... Those few people still don't quantify as "the whole tech community" and steve from hardware unboxed frequents adored channel and adds to the discussion in the comments section over  there from time to time
