Well, yet another AMD processor release thats dead on arrival.
Just a quick rundown for anyone who missed the news:
>AMD shows promising processor benchmarks and competitive prices >no improvement in IPC over Intel but more cores so meh >Intel slashes prices making Ryzen completely noncompetitive
Guess that's what happens when your company is ran by a has-been, a gook and a poo.
So they've dropped the prices on all their CPUs by 45%? No? Guess it's still not competitive then, Mr.Shill.
Even if they did that, they could be prosecuted for dumping.
Hunter Torres
I'm going to buy ho ryzen out of pity
Aiden Flores
Intel has its own Foundries though. AMD lost theirs. They are locked into a situation of higher fees while they beg for others to cut their chips.
It's also why NVIDIA still exists. They are a cartel with AMD on the PC GPU patents but both don't have their own Foundries.
If the patents were open both NVIDIA and AMD would be dead and chips would be faster and cheaper.
Camden Smith
>intel slashes prices
That's all I cared about. Decent competition so Intel is forced to stop charging so much.
Andrew Long
Reposting a good quote from another thread:
The fact that they have to cut prices proves that they have to compete with AMD. It shows they're scared about losing market share, even in the low volume HEDT segment. This change in pricing structure will change the entire product line up for them, and if revenue from PC sales is down at the end of the year they'll have to explain to investors that a company 1/10th their size is forcing their hand, and thats bad for investor confidence.
Zen being this close to Broadwell - Kaby Lake is a clear threat to them. If it were a single flash in the pan it would illicit such a heavy handed response. Zen+ is going to have parity with Cannonlake. Intel's per clock performance lead is virtually gone, their process lead is pretty close to worthless. The only segment intel is hanging on in is the mainstream with their highly clocked quad core parts, and they have nowhere left to go there. Power per core in Kaby Lake at 4.2ghz is already 21.5w. They're always extremely far outside of the ideal clocking range for efficiency, and they're not going to be squeezing any more out of their 14nm node.
Charles Young
Yes but less cores is better in the real world sweetie, not all of us sit and unpack 7zip files all day.
Angel Bennett
Intel knew the future exactly. They kept improving every year so since the last time AMD didn't manage to do much of anything different at all, they still have slower cores, they still try to push the stupidity to gullible people that only offline rendering matters.
It's not even Intel's fault. Most stupid people don't realize how hard it is to shrink the transistor nowadays. The photolithography alone is extremely hard, and soon we will start hitting severe quantum mechanical limitations.
If the children of Sup Forums knew how the real world works, they would be researching new ways to get away from the silicon paradigm because Intel knows it is soon to be dead stop in progress.
Ian Long
Thank you Pajeet. $0.10 has been deposited in your bank account.
Camden Fisher
yes goy, all you need is a quad core!
Aaron Martinez
AMD never fabed their own GPUs
Aaron Powell
>from charlie
wood screw charlie?
Mason Richardson
>they still have slower cores
No they don't
Hudson King
When they were competitive on CPUs, they did, which is the topic here.
James Sullivan
They own doctored benchmarks with cherry picked intel chips to make them look good show them ~25% slower. Only gullible people will fall into the meme again. It's exactly what they tried to pull last time.
Ethan Jenkins
>The only use for multiple cores is unzipping files
Shilltel please.
Owen Bell
I'm not a gaymer. You can put both AMD and Intel among with your opinions about them into your ass.
Jordan Thomas
Intel is in FULL damage control. The fact that they are 24'7 shitposting on Sup Forums is kinda a proof of this.
If Sup Forums made Trump president, Sup Forums can make AMD great again.
Fuck off Intelshills.
Adrian Anderson
>sweetie >7zip >this meta condescending tumblr/reddit/twitter shitposting
Thats cute. Its like you're trying really hard to imitate CTR.
Thats the one.
You've got to try a lot harder. if someone is actually paying you for this they're wasting their money.
Easton Walker
>doctored benchmarks >they literally had a setup people could test common benchmarks on, live, right alongside Intel's best
Holy fuck you shills better step up your game, you aren't going to convince any goys with that nonsense. You won't get any shekel bonuses at this rate.
Carson Moore
I wanted Ryzen after seeing the benchmarks, then I remembered how bad AMD drivers are. Not worth the hassle in my opinion, rather just pay a little more for a platform I trust, like Intel.
Landon Roberts
> I'm incapable to observe the data, therefore I'm talking with AMD or Intel shills go back to your mommy kid.
Noah Young
Even when I still use Foobar2000 in Windows I can initiate 6 converter threads to convert a whole-CD music files into smaller tracks. With just an Phenom II X6. Super comfy as fuck. And it's 2017 and you tell me quad-core is sufficient.
Jack Parker
>I am incapable to observe AMD's own propaganda data, therefore I'm talking with professional shills go cry to your mommy kiddo, the rest of us will laugh at you next time you cry "I fell for the AMD meme"
Wait, AMD is still putting exposed pins on the CPU instead of the motherboard? Fuck this I'm buying a 7700K.
Andrew Sanders
This is just super low effort. The whole condescending feminine tone thing doesn't work, you should have learned that by now.
Connor Diaz
>go back to your mommy kid. >go cry to your mommy kiddo
Does Intel hand you a guidebook for this shit?
Noah Nguyen
We all know Ryzen will thermal throttle like shit, atleast with Intel you get the performance that's advertised.
Hunter Turner
Heres is a NON FAKE NEWS quick rundown:
>Initial leaks show unanimously that Zen is devastating i7 for $500 cheaper
Adam Hernandez
>intel ends production of that motherboard chipset after 2 years >pin bends on motherboard >sorry goy just buy a new CPU too! :^)
James Bell
Pretty sure that dollar for dollar Intel will still be better, plus have you seen the prices on Ryzen compatible motherboards? Not to mention reduced Linux compatability.
Nicholas Butler
>Ryzen will thermal throttle like shit >soldered ihs
Doubt it
Julian Stewart
>65w-95w >Throttling
What?
Zachary Gutierrez
>le I only need 100% multiprocessing le meme serial performance will be always required on interactive applications unless you never actual sit on a computer and only encode x265
stupid people have the delusion it's a matter of progress it's not a matter of progress, it's a mathematical fact you will always require serial performance on CPUs this is because interactive application must always adhere to the rules of a global loop
you can cry all you want to your mommy for your next game to be "100% multiprocessed" but it will never happen kiddo it's how mathematics works. you will always need strong threads not only in gaming, but in anything that required human input, including setting up your Photoshop before you actually render, which is 99% of the time you actually use a computer
William Murphy
This whole Ryzen shit will be a week long fad just like Bulldozer and Piledriver. Me? I'm sticking with Intel.
Caleb Russell
The first motherboards are always the most expensive

Andrew Nelson
AMD chips are too unreliable in my experience, plus you don't get features like Speedstep and the like.
Jason Cooper
That's nice and all, fuckface, but it doesn't matter because Ryzen's single core performance is only slightly lower than Intel's. And Zen+ is going to easily match it, maybe even beat it.
(Don't even think of dredging up MHz comparisons, you know that myth died almost two decades ago, right?)
Dylan Lee
Zen is on par with Broadwell in IPC. Skylake/Kaby Lake is only 2.7% on average ahead of Broadwell.
You shills just aren't trying hard enough.
Top end X370 boards are $200. Top end X99 boards are $300-$500.
Brody Foster
I just don't think Ryzen offers a compelling value, I'll stay with Kaby Lake for now.
Jaxson Richardson
>I only run one program at a time, all single threaded lmao
Lincoln Wright
At these prices you have to be an idiot retard not to buy intel. They are practically giving them away
Justin Baker
>>buy a laptop with an amd gpu on board which year was this AMD going stronk in driver game right now
Jaxon Lewis
Sunk cost fallacy.
Andrew Barnes
>Speedstep You mean like PowerNow™
Nolan Reyes

Andrew Thomas

Asher Morris
>Intel shills in full damage control What a time to be alive
Actually I'm upgrading my old system, I work hard so I don't mind paying a few extra dollars for a better architecture that will last.
Nathan Ross
> CPU > Drivers
Pick one.
Inb4: Yeah, there is such a things as microcode, but it's mostly power management stuff.
Nolan Collins
Looks like it's back to the drawing board for AMD, these Intel chips are smokin' fast boys. Don't forget less faster cores will always beat more slow ones.
Nathan Johnson
december 2016 :)
Robert Myers
>Intel >a better architecture that will last
OH FUCK MY SIDES
If this is the best bullshit you shills can cook up, Intel is fucking doomed.
Liam Sanchez
>a few extra dollars >for half the performance
Okay.
Julian Rodriguez
You're right, I bet all the kids who bought Piledriver are super happy with them in 2017 (they won't be).
Meanwhile Sandy Bridge is still a strong platform, though ofcorse you should always update to the newest line of Intel processors for the optimum speed and feature set.
Easton Garcia
>Pretty sure that dollar for dollar Intel will still be better Only DAMAGE CONTROL shills can say such a thing when AMD releases all of Intel's "EXTREME" CPUs for less than HALF THE PRICE!
> Not to mention reduced Linux compatability. Linux has been getting Ryzen updates for over a year now. The last ones (4.9 and 4.10) have been mostly power management stuff (For what I remember).
Nathan Martin
>Me? I'm shilling for Intel. FTFY
Henry White
Intel goes through sockets faster than you go through cocks.
Charles Diaz
CPU =/= GPU
Easton Phillips
Only thing that can save amd now is 1600x with unlockable cores trick
Jace Smith
>though ofcorse you should always update to the newest line of Intel processors for the optimum speed and feature set.
I'm not sure if you're actually a shill or pretending to be one for the (You)s
Angel Cruz
THE LESS CORES YOU HAVE THE BETTER PROCESSOR YOU HAVE
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST FOLKS
QUICKLY BUY ALL THE PRESCOTT SINGLE CORE 125W PENTIUMS!!!1!1ONE!!
Angel Powell
My god. Intel is fucking spooked.
So much FUD being flung, attempts at controlling the media, attempts at controlling the narrative.
This is what you get for getting lazy and complacent while charging customers disgusting prices.
Lincoln Collins
AMD just fucked Intel so hard their shills went stupid.
Samuel Green
I'm gonna get an i3, they have SMMMMMMMMMMOKIN' HOT single core performance.
Ayden Taylor
Remember goys cores don't matter so buy the new i3 k series for your gaymin.
Brandon Allen
Luckily intel were jews
if they had sold the CPUs at a fair price maybe AMD wouldn't be around today
Matthew Russell
so, any bets on reviews? personally I trust guru3d because Intel stopped any kind of PR relation in Europe except UK probably because germans adn dutch told them to fuck off several times
Nathaniel Gomez
Naw senpai they got this shit on lock.
Dylan Gomez
Alright AMDrones listen up
Single core performance matters the MOST because the vast majority of people are basing their processor purchasing decisions off of how much additional frames per second they can get in games, the more the better. Fuck everything else.
Even a slight advantage and people will take Intel Every. Time. Even if it's slightly more expensive, it becomes the "premium product"
Only NEET anime watchers care about multicore performance. So there, Sup Forums has its own processor now. Too bad that the majority of people are buying for gaming performance, Ryzen is a flop and the next bulldozer, and no one buys the $1k Intel chips anyways LOL.
Henry Richardson
>what is Gustafson's law
Leo Taylor
>Even a slight advantage and people will take Intel Every.
>slight advantage >at 50% of the price Not everyone is an incelcuck
Lincoln Sanchez
>Implying Intel couldn't snuff AMD out at any time and this isn't just AMD struggling in its gimp suit while a few people ask if someone heard muffled grunts.
Ryan Wood
you realize fabs are a money sink if they make only one thing? why do you think intel that scared to lose marketshare? because it will hit them much harder than it did AMD back in 2009
Ryder Ramirez
>open task manager >have more than 4 processes / services running Heh I could have 40 core processor and it wouldn't be enough
John Gomez
>even gaymen are now multi-threaded >DUDE SINGLE THREAD PERFORMANCE >continues to ignore that Ryzen has higher IPC than babby lake
Carson Cook
how is life in 2010?
John Stewart
>Even a slight advantage and people will take it every time
So I guess when more games start taking advantage of multiple cores (this is already happening), AMD will be the only good choice. Nice thinking there, buddy.
Blake Gutierrez
DX12 and Vulkan have been released for what, 2 years now? And there are only a handful of games that support it? Maybe in 5 years AMD will be better but they will be bankrupt by then.
Jacob Thompson
Heh well that's where you're wrong kiddo, I have -1 cores and my computer couldn't be faster.
Bentley Moore
Only way to solve this debate is a gladiator type event with poos versus Jews

So should i sell my 6700K and get an AMD build instead?, or what

I'd watch it.
