If you have no ideas on what it'll bring then there is no point on shitting on it. I just made this for people to help me understand on what to expect from the AMD Zen and if it's worth the wait. If you're a Intel Fanboy. Then just stop where you are. Turn off your computer, and think about your life.

It doesnt look so bad to be honest.

First benchmark from Engineering Sample Leaks are showing its performance below Haswell i7 processors.

But that could be due to the ridiculous low stock speed. If its well OC'able the first look is a good one.

Supposedly it's going to bring about the same performance as last generation Intel i5 processors.

Well we really can't know the preformance yet couse there was only one banchmark leak but there is still the possibility that it was a fake but lets hope for the mid range models to be i5 equivelent and high end ones to be i7 octo equivelent but one thing is that amd ussually had a higher power comsumption then intel hopefully it will be remedied somwath with zen

Take a look folks

http://wccftech.com/amd-zen-cpus-outperform-intels-highend-broadwelle-architecture-am4-platform-detailed/

many are saying it competes with the i7 6900K clock for clock (both at 3 Ghz)

Clock for clock it competes with Broadwell-E/skylake (and may even beat)

if Kabylake delivers another 5% performance improvement and zen+ can do 10%, then AMD Reclaims the performance crown
