AMD RYZEN... A GAME CHANGER!

woah what 

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Screens- 3  ASUS VN248H-P IPS 1080p screens mounted on a stand, some old tv on the wall above it. 

Stuff- Epicgear defiant (solderless swappable switches), g600, moutned mic and other stuff. 

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore. I got a model M i use on it to, but its time for a new keyboard. Some edgy Utechsmart mouse similar to g600. Hooked to laptop dock for both of my dell precision laptops. (not only docking area)

Shelf- i7-2600 non-k (has vt-d), 380t, some ASUS sandy itx board, intel quad nic. Currently hosts shared files, setting up as pfsense box in VM. Also acts as spare gaming PC with a 580 or whatever someone brings. Hooked into laptop dock area via usb switch

Well this was a pleasant surprise. I did not expect it to launch today. 

Now time to look at benchmarks! 

 

Edit: Never mind. Just a soft launch.

Doesn't seem like trustworthy benchmarks (as in, not from AMD's marketing team) exist yet either.

Its nice to get more info though. 

 

 

By the way people should NOT pre-order. Wait until benchmarks are out before putting money down.

@LinusTech I'm tired of you ripping off the floatplane club. We should have been lifted from NDA and been allowed to buy Ryzen CPUs a week early.

AMD is doing the same thing as Apple does with their smartphones. They have a keynote where the press gets to listen to a bunch of marketing, and pre-orders goes up. Then (on the 2nd March) the NDA is lifted and the chips are sent out. 

 

Edit: cool font LTT gave me. Your WYSIWYG edit could use some work.

Very very nice,  time to start saving. 

 

Hopefully the mobo prices are not like £9,000,000

Finally something more. However, it is still not proper independent benchmarks

 

However, I don't like that they are using Dota2 as benchmarks, as it really feels like Valve has been rushing out patches there as of late (Like, they could really benefit from an extra week or month in the test client)

"But doesn't that put both Intel and AMD at an equal disadvantage?"

Yes it does, but that doesn't change my point that Dota2 isn't the best game to convince me with right now.
