And still no i1, dagnabit, gosh darn it!

 

Is that how they say it in Nebraska?

Pentium seems to be the i1,and the Celeron is a Intel Core Joke Edition or Core i0

It is. I just want to see a battle of cheesiest named.

Lets see which one comes first, i11 or R11

i3 = i1

If anyone cares, here's a 7900x running Cinebench R15 at 4.5 GHz at 1.15v on a very sketchy looking air cooler setup.  

 

It's an ES sample, but OC headroom looks good and it doesn't look like he was too worried about the TIM.  

 

2400cb multi-threaded / 200cb single-threaded.  Definitely some IPC improvement as my 5960x takes 4.9 GHz / 1.34v cooled by a custom loop to hit a 200cb for single thread and he did it at 4.5 GHz / 1.15v with a janky ass air setup.  lol

Do we have an idea as to what typical "stock" voltages run on these chips?

No idea.  Keep in mind that he may have had a little extra LLC running so there's no telling.  

 

I just shared as it shows some clear IPC improvements.  

 

IPC differences between Haswell-E and Broadwell-E account for roughly a 200 MHz difference to achieve the same performance in favor of Broadwell-E.  Looks that this video shows that the difference between Broadwell-E and Skylake-X may be around 200 MHz again.  See my last post for reasoning.   

 

Add in the extra cores and Skylake X may be doing some damage.

I feel like AMD is just baiting Intel with 'Threadripper and X399' whereas i9 is a serious name from the Intel camp.

4.5GHz at 1.15V looks VERY promising!

That's better than a 6950X at 4.5GHz. We are seeing some very good IPC and Hyperthreading gains here!

Wait, that is the 10 core one, not the 8 core  Still, that is very impressive!

If this weren't a workstation platform this would have no value.

Of course if I can get a 7800x for $320 at microcenter it's mine

There's going to be some serious lack of demand for the 7800x to drop to $320 any time soon. Plus Mobo & the need for 4 sticks of DDR4.

You don't need 4 sticks of DDR4.......

I'm betting on Intel. AMD will instead release something along the lines of Ryzen Yarn-stitcher.

[yian88]

So we are finally entering new grounds for CPU's. I hope quad/dual cores die for good after 2020 they really piss me off, expired tech.

Thanks to AMD the CPU market starts to look interesting again, intel started moving its sorry ass and produce something other than 5% per generation.

Hopefully AMD releases new Zen+ next year cause these ones are way too expensive and not very good performance and overclocking is 0.

Absolutely not, you will use dual channel RAM on a MoBo and CPU that recommends quad channel, of course.

You say that yet there are people running dual channel RAM on a quad channel platform.

[juri-han]

all of the broadwell-e max out at 4.4 overclock so 4.5 isnt really that great, lets say you gain 200 MHz going to skylake-x that will be lost due to cheap TIM you wont have much room to OC these and will run closer to stock much like the 1800x 

 

i other words unless you delid and watercool i wouldn't expect a huge performance gain and intel can pass that off due to the price cuts, honestly im more interested in coffee lake

Is there any difference for quad vs dual channel? I know it benefits production work but does it help gaming? I'm thinking about selling my Vengeance 3000MHz RAM when I move to X299 for Samsung B-Die to get that 4000+ goodness.
