I thought R5 was 6/12 for the top models and 4/8 for the lower models, with R3 being 4/4? I guess I never saw that officially confirmed though (aside from the R5 1600X and 1500X), were the leaks wrong?
Comparatively affordable though it is, the Ryzen 7 lineup are halo products.
They effectively break the status quo of AMD's role as a manufacturer of out dated, bottom tier products which compete solely on price.
By the time the Ryzen 5 and 3 are launched, the ecosystem should be ready for...
Actually the initial tests of the FX-8350 that AdoredTV used showed a 17% disadvantage at 640x480 compared to the 2500K in 2012 using a GTX 680 (while showing a 9% advantage in synthetic benchmarks).
By February 2017, using a 980 Ti at 720P, the FX-8370 was at a 12% disadvantage to the 2500K...
AdoredTV is almost always extremely optimistic towards AMD in his analysis/predictions and pessimistic towards intel/nvidia.
If you want relentless AMD cheerleading as tech analysis, he's your man.
The Ryzen 1700 looks like great bang for buck regardless, but the variation in performance leaves me a bit unsure about my own use case.
Mostly it only seems to be in games (which I care very little about), but in the case of the multithreaded titles like Watch Dogs 2 which scale with threads...
Yes, but computerbase.de was comparing their 1800X to a 7700K at STOCK clocks, whereas Joker was supposedly comparing to a 7700K@5ghz.
So the fact that their results look the same say's it all about Joker's results.
I like the charts over at computerbase.de, but I don't agree that their results were the same as Joker's (at least not in his 1700 vs 7700K videos). They were testing at stock frequencies, whereas he was supposedly testing at max obtainable overclocks.
Joker's results aren't to be trusted.
Why was he testing DX11 vs DX12?
Also PC Gamer did the SMT off comparison with Tomb Raider and it performed marginally better.
I'm not really interested in real world gaming scenarios so much as CPU performance in different applications.
The huge differences in comparative performance between productivity applications and heavily multithreaded games needs explaining in order for me to know whether it's likely to effect...
Even at 1080P high, as long as the GPU isn't the bottleneck the performance gap looks about the same as that computerbase.de review at 720P.
Gamernexus and Techspot/HardwareUnboxed got much the same results...
Cheers. I'd checked out the guru3d reviews, but they only tested SMT off with games (like most of the reviewers).
Overall from Stilt's review it looks like the SMT implementation is very good outside of gaming.
Only LINPACK and Euler 3D were negatively impacted, and in most tests it outperformed...
The Ryzen 1700 looks like a great value chip.
The only result I've seen that bothers me is the Watchdogs 2 results.
I wouldn't expect Ryzen to be able to make up the IPC and clock speed deficit to the 7700k on minimally multithreaded games/applications.
Watchdogs 2 however is multithreaded to...
