Nobody cares about a 3 year old Xeon

They will still sell!

...

housefire tier

so OC'ing a 1800x from stock to 4GHz adds a 90w premium on powerdraw?
INSANE

2007 called they want their house fire xeons back

400 mHz= 90w????
what the fudge

u do realize it's perfectly in like with the ryzen frequency wise?

>400 watts overclocked i9

This is what Intel gets for rushing this shit 2 quarters early.

It's like netburst 2.0

8-core 6GHz i10 with a TDP of 500W when?

>10cores/20threads
>378W

What a fucking disgrace. You NEED Liquid cooling for this bitch.

AMD doesn't need GHz overclock meme to get good performance.

That said fuck running a 200+ watt cpu

IT
IS
FUCKING
SLOWER
THAN
BROADWELL-E


AND IS A NUCLEAR REACTOR TO BOOT

ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT I'M BEYOND FUCKING MAD, CLEARLY THE LACK OF SHARED L3 CACHE HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL.

FUCK INTEL, I'M GONNA GO MASTURBATE

Leaving the voltage sweet spot. Wattage will rise exponentially. Ryzen runs best at around 1.1v(?) and something like 3-3.2Ghz.

>this is the 10 core

I can't wait to see that 18 core in action!

you can have 3.6GHz on a golden chip at 1.1

NUCLEAR REACTOR TIER!

700 watts cmon

>draws less power than ryzen per core per frequency
>nuclear reactos

pajeets pls

>per frequency

lel, good one, user.

And then you woke up.
OC power is one thing, but even stock it's fucking garbage.

Nuclear firestorm-tier

If only we could all win the silicon lottery.

>Being this bad at math

At 4GHz:

>i9 7900x system= 26.7 WxC (watt per core)
>ryzen 1800x system= 32.4 WxC

lol

Lmao, try not to be retarded next time.

>at 4GHz
Lol

what's so funny friend

jesus christ man

intel

And the 7900x is gonna absolutely pulverize ryzen at same clock speeds, with BETTER power efficiency

>measured from wall
>GTX 1080

still it is absurd for just taking the CPU.

ryzen getting soundly beaten by i5s what's new

...

...

hmmm-huh

>ayyymd fan
>pajeet
>homosexual
>overwatch player

wew lad

When will AMD drop their 12 core? Power consumption aside, clearly Intel has an advantage currently with more cores in these workloads.

>reaching 100°C on water
b-b-b-b-b-b--b-b--b-b-b--b-b-b-b------bbbbuutt solder is crack and mayonnaise™ is spreading and and and and and FUCK YOU AMDRONES

Much more balanced conclusion

Poor pajeets

It's armed, all right.

>Cutting out the rest of the conclusion

"Wouldn't it be nice if the world's leading chip giants launched new processor series that worked perfectly and made implicit sense?

That's the hope, but having witnessed AMD's Ryzen arrive with teething issues ranging from memory support to hesitant in-game performance, it is frustrating to find that Intel's Core X-Series isn't immune to certain missteps, either.

X299 motherboards don't appear to be quite ready, there are question marks surrounding the Skylake-X processors due later this year, and at the lower end of the Core X spectrum, Kaby Lake-X is nothing short of puzzling.

Plenty of reason for discord among enthusiast users, yet look past the confusion and you may see cause for optimism. The world's first Core i9 processor, the 7900X, is ultimately a 10-core powerhouse offering excellent IPC performance and outstanding multi-core prowess in a single $999 chip armed with plenty of overclocking headroom. Said ingredients make it an automatic choice for power users seeking the ultimate PC experience, and the chip's benchmarking potential makes for a fitting debut of the Core i9 brand.

Bottom line: the price tag remains a stumbling block and software optimisations are needed, but anyone willing to splash a thousand bucks on a new CPU need look no further than the Intel Core i9-7900X. Over to you, Threadripper."

Yes it's powerful. But not much more powerful than a 6950X and requires a new motherboard platform to boot. On new system builders may contemplate it but Threadripper looks more promising. Personally I would wait and see and get the best deal.

Why does the 1800X exist? The 1700X is like 4% slower and is far more efficient and cheaper.

>

>look no further than the Intel Core i9-7900X

...

7800X 6 cores / 12 threads = 140W

my 7 year old 980X has 6 cores and 12 threads and 130W at about the same stock speed...

and it's not like it's twice as fast really
wtf intel

Why do any of them exist? Intel equivalents are 10-15% faster and are comparably efficient and cheaper.

For now. Get ready for buttrape.

it's gonna be ryzen on a langer scale.
Ergo shit performance but slightly cheaper than intel and all AYMDD fanbois gonna troll endlessly

How many PCI Lanes does the 7900x has?

Yeah, about that.

>Intel equivalents are 10-15% faster
HAHAAH
>comparably efficient
AHAHAHAHAAHAHA
>and cheaper
HAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAAHAH

>higher core count intel less efficient than lower core count AMD in a benchmark that runs all cores

Oh just kill me is Intel outta their minds?

44

Hey, at least it's more efficient than Broadwell..

I fucking love the 1700

Sure thing mr goldstein sr

>7920X-7980XE disco inferno
>TBC

Pottery

(You)

needs to be priced at 250$

Intel's 8 cores are $800+

i9s require $300 motherboards

reading though the review:
>well that's pretty good for a 8 core and...
>notice the X in 7900X
>oh shit

>netburst 2.0

But that's a 10 core.

Not anymore
7820X is now $500

On what fucking planet?

NETBURST 2.0

This one
The i9-7820X is now $300 cheaper than the 6900K

Burn the whole planet to the ground

it's the sweet sweet spot for gaymeing

>the new 2500k ladies and getns and traps

>Two reviews come out the same day
>Before NDA
>Favoring Intel while trying to pretend not to

Hmm. It really grapples my grapenuts.

...

It's the sweet sweet spot for housefires.

>However, temperatures were definitely a concern with Cinebench and Terragen pushing 100°C with our 240mm AIO liquid cooler.

Hahaha! Crylake-X DOA!

The 8 core is $600, dude.
That's not even counting the fucking X299 cost

Yeah but you need a $300 lga 2066 HEDT motherboard. Meanwhile we're already getting $50 AM4 motherboards for R7s.

Fuck off. It's really obvious Intel fed them those chips to try and steal AMD's thunder.

intel's failed abortions need to be priced at $100

>bulldozer all over again
SAD

Firelake-X

this

Wow, that's pretty fucking hot

Kikeripper is in august anyway.

yea it was those scary evil JOOOOOOOS amirite

>pushing 100°C with our 240mm AIO liquid cooler
AHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHH

I remember seeing a graph where Ryzen past 3.6 GHz really starts to spike in power usage.

>20% better performance for $700 more
yeah looks like amd is done for

DOA
O
A

Citation needed

If those i9 motherboards are not less than $200 they can forget it.

>not using liquid nitrogen to cool your i9

>not using liquid helium
>2017

PRESHOTT 2.0 LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO

>not using liquid water
>y=2017

THIS IS WHAT I LIKE TO SEE A FUCKING CPU WAR. I WANT BETTER PERFORMANCE FUCK AMD AND INTEL. BRING YOUR BEST FAGGOTS!
