What die shrink? I believe there is not going to be any die shrink for Skylake-X. Next HEDT platform is probably just a 14nm refresh Cascade Lake (like Kaby Lake after Skylake) and after that is a new architecture Ice Lake-SP which will be out not sooner than mid 2019.

If info bellow is true (for other mobos as well), some first day reviews were made with a different product than what customers will end up buying.
No wonder both performance and power usage were all over the place depending on chosen review, overclocking included.Best as I can tell, at present only the 10-core setting is actually in effect, so if I set that to 40 (stock), I'll get 4.0GHz, whether I'm running a single-threaded workload or a 20-threaded workload. On an earlier BIOS, the CPU tended to run at the highest value set on any of the core counts, so 4.5GHz since that's what the 1/2-core loads specified.
The latest F5k BIOS that I received today came with a message that states, "the X299 AORUS Gaming 9 will follow Intel Turbo Boost policy by default under 'Enhanced Multi-Core Performance' which activates more cores for higher clocks." In my testing, that's still not happening.
What about overclocking? That's not working as expected either—I set the CPU for a 4.7GHz clockspeed on all cores, and ended up with variable clockspeeds—setting everything to 45 was actually closer to proper 'stock' performance than anything else I've tried.

To me it looks like there are just 256b AVX units. Multiple sources mentioned one 512b "port" with one fp port not being available during a 512b op, which means, those ops would be executed on two 256b units.Well, if that is the case then my other observation is probably true - the mesh,uh, switch? is at least 1.3 mm2 per core PLUS the memory blocks have one too. It's getting pretty expensive to do this interconnect. And then AVX-512 costs somewhere around 1-2 mm2 per core.

No.Wait, are you suggesting you think there's 4x256b units?

It pops up during that part that the voltage isn't showing correctly, so no it's not correct.Are those voltages correct? 1.8+? Every other review I've seen got a decent OC around 1.25 and could go higher with 1.3 but it got too hot. 1.8 seems way too high, no?

Over 400w is crazy though.

This is a Coffeelake 6/12 12MB entry on Geekbench.
The most interesting aspect of the G25VR is that it will launch with the next generation Intel CPU succeeding Kaby Lake. MSI tells us that the "7th Gen. Intel Core i7" on the spec sheet is actually a typo, but the manufacturer declined to tell us the exact CPU model as the processor family is likely still under NDA. We do know, however, that the G25VR will be available in August or September and that Intel will likely have major 8th generation Core ix announcements prior to the launch of the MSI mini PC.
nope he is saying
port 0 256-bit FMA
port 1 256-bit FMA
port 0+1 512bit FMA
port 5 512bit FMA
Found someone today to deal my X99 mobo and 6850k to, so 7900x, here i come after all
Anyway, do you think that 400 EUROs is a okayish price for gigabyte x99p-sli and 6850k, both bought at the end of august last year? The board was like 250 and CPU i dont remember exactly, about 700? Is 400 a fair price then, or too much to ask?
1 out of 4 ain't bad!The only downsides IMO are the temps, power and price, but performance is there.
Yeah, except Intel says they're all compatible.

I think more than a few are looking for 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light'.Okey dokey!
It doesn't meet Meatloaf's lofty standards, though.

I can't comment on the price advice, but congrats on the 7900X. It really is a badass CPU. The only downsides IMO are the temps, power and price, but performance is there. Do you plan on de-lidding or direct die cooling?
