We're now squishing even more on a 14nm die! (Just another day at Intel) Comet Lake!

R7 3700X with 16 cores anyone?

Probably an Threadripper branded CPU with WX branding. A 3800wx costing around 600$. They cant tarnish their threadripper

I think Zen 2's version of Threadripper is going to move up to 32-64 cores, just like how the Zen+ refresh of Threadripper reached core count parity with Epyc.

I could see them labeling the 16 core Ryzen part as the 3800x though, with a high price tag to match.

if that has an igpu it will be quite expensive, and amd will probably rekt it with threadripper

Thank you i9 9900K, your life was short with me, nothing personal... just enthusiast business.

 

Finally an upgraded i7 6950X  10c/20t with Ring Bus... yay

Phew, good luck with the custom loop + chiller to cool your system

Oh it will have an iGPU you can be sure, that's how AMD ain't "rekting it" at all with Threadripper much like my 8 cores can reach a 32 cores AMD in video rendering

And for the photo and drawing creation the i9 is hand downs superior:

So yeah it's a compelling product because we have competition which is always good [:

most dpus would do a better job than that if adobe actually knew how to code

iGPU hardware acceleration works Along side CUDA so you're just stacking up performance which is great.

 

Obviously this CPU incoming is no where near as exciting as finally getting 10nm announced.

The problem is, even if TR had an iGPU, it still wouldn't make a difference because it's not Quick Sync. If there's one thing we know about Adobe, it is they hate actually making their software better, it took them 7 years to support Quick Sync, so I doubt they'll be optimising for any AMD technology any time soon

welcome, to the intel FX9590.

[Linus_torvalds]

THANK YOU AMD! THANK YOU. This bitches did not make 4 core i3 for 7 years! After ryzen was out they made 4 core i3 and 4 core 8 thread i5 even u series in laptops. FUCK YOU INTEL! I will never ever buy intel cpu. AMD all the way!

intel started 14nm in 2014, this will be their 5th year refreshing it, a record for them

Nah, 16 cores on AM4. They can call it threadripper all they want but it's Ryzen at the end of the day. I dont think they will though since threadripper will be 32 core with proper numa memory support now. $600 is possible but I want to see $500

I have a 14 core Intel CPU at 22nm, it doesn't melt, although its clocks reflect that.

 

The mainstream core war is going into silly territory now. 8 cores is already pushing dual channel ram. If either side go beyond that... it is getting really silly. A fat L4 might help but it is more a quick fix than a real solution, which is quad channel ram. At this point, just bring HEDT pricing down.

cores are the easiest thing to market. It's like a horsepower or mpg number on a car

AMD is doing so with 8 core chiplets. HEDT will come down in time but imo 16 Cores for someone like me even on dual channel is perfect. I dont need the memory bandwidth but I want 16 cores to have all the multitasking. I want to stream every game I play and have it be so little of an impact that I can just stream any time i'm in a game ever.

probably not the best attitude either.. but it is quite enlighting to see intel struggle.

 

it's gotten so bad we cant even get laptops anymore for our clients at work.. funny how HP comes up with radical new privacy displays in laptops.. and then cant sell them because they dont have CPUs to put in them.

I swear, as @mate_mate91 said previously, if Intel doesn't get their  tik tok sh** together then I will switch to AMD.

their tik tok "sh**" is already in the dumpster, as we're hitting the very limits of moore's law.

Higher density=higher chance of having to disable faulty cores if I remember correctly. Also it means a higher cost.

I said that when there were rumors Skylake will have eDDR as L4 by default. In the end turned out only one Skylake had it and even that was some mid end CPU and it was only used for iGPU on it. So I bought Broadwell-E in the end and I'm still on it today...

A few more of the E3 Xeon V5s actually had the eDRAM L4 cache. The L4 was actually able to be used by the CPU cores and Broadwell with Crystalwell and the Skylake CPUs that had it showed higher effective memory bandwidth.
