>We have confirmation from AMD that there are no silly games going to be played with Ryzen 5. The six-core parts will be a strict 3+3 combination, while the four-core parts will use 2+2. This will be true across all CPUs, ensuring a consistent performance throughout.
Why is one 4 core part 8MB of L3? That makes no sense, having 2+2 but disabling cache in one CCX-
Jaxson Young
They'd disable half the cache per CCX otherwise one CCX wouldn't work.
The fact that the 4c/8t version will be 2+2 and not 4+0 is a bit shit. Shame really.
Henry Price
The 1500x 4c8t seems ttobe 16MB which seems impossible.
Liam Jenkins
There's two 4 core parts, one with 8MB and one with 16MB
Your argument doesn't hold.
Grayson Walker
So? another flop 2500K beats it amdrones will drone I guess

Stop baiting dickwagon and join discussion. It's new way to accomplish things and obviously it isn't as well supported and optimized than legacy ways, right?

>the R5 could've competed with the i5 >nah, let's just use broken r7s as a base
Jacob Fisher
We heard all these excuses before with Faildozer. Five years later it still gets wrecked by a 2500k.
Angel Allen
>The 1500x 4c8t seems ttobe 16MB which seems impossible. Why? It's split across 2 CCXs, each of which has 8 MB of L3 cache. 2x8=16.
>There's two 4 core parts, one with 8MB and one with 16MB Yes. Both are split across two CCXs, therefore the former must have each CCX's L3 cache cut in half. One CCX having 16 MB and the other having 0 MB doesn't work.
Carter Hughes
Cutting cache in half per CCX makes even less sense than having one CCX with a fully enabled L3
Josiah Gomez
You can't just "cut" shared cache in half.
Thomas Myers
Fast RAM will save us. Maybe. Probably not. R7 is the only good Ryzen it seems. Unless R3 actually has 1 CCX.
Brandon Taylor
Seems multiple sources are confirming the R5 1400 also has 2 CCX, so maybe they cut off half the L3 cache on each CCX?
Dylan Perry
What "excuses"? They are legit reasons that affect performance. Obviously it will perform poorly if no one never did anything like it, how about you go write scheduler that can benefit from 2 ccx?
And then theres bandwidth issue too, how are they going to include APU in that thing?
Lincoln Perry
Stupid fucking decision, I hope they disable one entire complex for the R3.
Gabriel Taylor
>so maybe they cut off half the L3 cache on each CCX?
Again, not how it werks.
At best they could do is somehow disable half the cache, which would be interesting cost wise.
Asher Allen
>r3 ends up being highest performing zen in single threaded applications That'd be so hilarious.
Nolan Russell
Is it? What's the current ST champion at Intel camp? Hint: It's not the low clocked 8 core.
Lucas Thomas
The fact that you resort to name calling makes me hesitant to even respond to you but Bullzoder does out perform the 2500k in newer (optimized) software. Once again, new architecture, old software not written to take advantage of it.
Stop with the asspull horseshit.
Ian Campbell
But you can have a whole CCX with no L3 cache? Listen to yourself man. Halving the size of a cache is trivial.
Robert Barnes
That would be awesome
Sebastian Young
Not if the cache is shared.
Robert Baker
They won't. Need consistency in performance over the range.
Angel Thompson
Has anyone tried to disable an entire CCX?
Jayden Ramirez
Yes.
Benjamin Morales
Not disabling smt, like and entire complex.
Did it work? Was there massive increase in IPC?
Austin White
Yes. Yes.
John Hughes

Jaxson Nguyen
None of these CPU's make any sense. At least the 1700 can be considered a solid victory as a budget workstation CPU over intel. These r3's and r5's are just inferior price and performance wise to pentium and 7600k. They're not competitive.
Nathan Davis
The 7700k is the best price/performance CPU right now
Hudson Garcia
Uh, no. I'd take a 1700 over it in almost any build. Did you say you can run photoshop faster? That's funny because I can run it with a game open with both running faster at the same time. 1700 is a vastly superior power user CPU and it cost a bit less too.
Josiah Edwards
Those chip r5 chip prob had some value if amd don't laser cut the core, for now it trash.
Landon Lee
Amd should sale 2core / 4 thread for cheap. but we got this 1400 contraption
Christopher Nguyen
APUs will come later on.
William Peterson
Dumbass The 2500K is being used to power quantum computers right now. AMD is years behind. But remember your slogan, Just Waitâ„¢
Liam Foster
Currently deciding between a 7500 or a 1500x. Looking more and more likely I'll go with the 7500.
James Bennett

John Miller
i feel like amd created this product just to be made fun of. seriously what other purpose does it serve?
Cooper Green
To show that Intel is disgusting for charging $1000+ for 8 core consumer grade processors.
Brandon Baker
1400 is a 4c part
Gavin Edwards
>Five years later it still gets wrecked by any GPU with OpenCL/CUDA Your OpenCL card can't boot Windows and run normal x86 software. Xeon Phi can
Ayden Rivera
This is a common practice for years.
Why do you think Intel had so many processor variants, because they want to reutilize CPU's with some defects, in that way they dont have to throw it away, but they market them as lower power variants so they dont have top throw it away.
Kayden Ward
Complex ICs are expensive as fuck to design and then produce. Of course they're going to utilize every little trick they can to make the most of what they have.
Grayson Hernandez
Bait .
Aaron Mitchell

Jose Mitchell
Fuck that. I hope they don't sell 2 cores at all. Maybe 3 cores at the very least. 2 cores, especially 2c/2t, need to die.
There's no point in 2 core CPUs when they don't have higher single threaded performance than a 4 core, other than "muh $70 cpu"
Mason Hill
Laptops are generally 2c4t
Colton Watson

Brody Thomas
Do they have to be though? There are cellphones with 4x the number of cores these days. More cores with moderate clock speeds can be more power efficient than few cores with high clock speeds
Isaac Evans
Moar coars is fucking meme for anything interactive. You won't be rendering or encoding shit on your laptop. Apple dual cores shat on quad and octa cores mainly because they had strong IPC.
Aaron Cooper
Huh? Source?
No reason they wouldn't be like 4c with 1.9ghz base and 3.3ghz turbo or something that only happens on 2 cores max out of the 4. They could easily make a 4core 4CU 15w TDP Ryzen laptop APU with how energy efficient Vega and Zen are.
There's really no reason why they'd do anything less than 3 cores with how good yields apparently are. Just seems you don't know what you're talking about.
Hudson Foster
All laptops 13" and less are dual cores and I don't even put the 15" apple macpros there. Only expensive 15" and above are quad cores.

Adam Sanchez
not enough AMD FINISHED AND BANKRUPT for your taste?
Julian Nguyen
Thing with CCX is overblown, if computerbase to be believed it's just two windows features stalling performance. Scheduler is a minor thing.
Austin Collins
It's a shit wrecker for the price no matter what you're comparing it against. i7s, Xeons, i5s are all on notice for 250 dollar 6 core 12 thread.
Jack Sullivan
It's not overblown, it IS impacting performance. But there are so many other issues plaguing Ryzen we have only begun to see what the chip is capable of.
Angel Reyes
you see 4c 3.7Ghz xeons exist for it's huge 8-20MB L3 they cost as much as i7 because of it. Now they have no niche.
Brody Wright
It makes perfect sense as cheap cpus like 1400 need volumes and they can get it during testing: Some part of L3 is fuck'd -> laser it in half -> throw it into 1400 bin
Asher Morales
Can I get a quick run down?
Elijah Ward
what good does that do in a 4c/4t part with 8mb l3 ?
keep in mind a 2c/4t with ht kaby lake pentium cost $70...
Jeremiah Baker
everything below i7 7700K and above is dead market for intel only viable chip they have is top end xeons right now, that also comes to an end comes summer
until next year, when thing will be interesting
Leo Baker
>what good does it to i7 to be 4c with 8T compared to i5?
Chase Powell
1400 is half the core of 1700 yet the price isn't half, amd trying to jew the poor by sale trash chip, sad
Landon Perez
the point i think you're missing here is kaby lake has insane ipc performance and that is a $65 part vs a $169 part
when you take away those extra cores and cut the l3 cache in half, ryzen is of questionable value. who this appeal to?
Jeremiah Peterson
you are missing the point that $70 part is actually useless for anything besides emulation and browsing
Adrian Sanchez
whereas the $169 part is dogshit at everything
Parker Scott
>2+2 only, no 4+0 that bugger gonna by slowed down by scheduling-latency so bad, wew

Considering you need fast ram to make it bearable , Fast ram pair with that cpu is dumb idea considering how expensive current ddr4
Nathaniel Cox
16GB of 3200mhz DDR4 is $107-$120 right now for a kit with mediocre timings. A higher end tight timing kit is $145.
Prices will keep falling, and faster kits with tighter timings will get even cheaper in coming months.
Hunter Lopez
Prices are going up you nigger, last month i got 16gb 3000 for $96
Angel Collins

Brayden Thomas
Does this mean even a Core 2 Quad
Wyatt Brooks
Yes, but released in 2017. Unless developers optimize their games with this in mind, those 4 cores are going to behave like i3 or even pentiums in games.
Landon Gutierrez

He is correct, most i7s on laptops are actually 2c4t. It's pretty retarded.

Elijah Myers
>1500x 2+2 I am more than slightly upset about this. using 4+0 would have given them that little IPC boost they needed to compete with the i7 for significantly less. Now the 1500x is in the same position as the 1700. It's a better part for the price but all the gaymer mongoloids are gonna overlook that because of muh +5% single core performance.
