Ryzen Leaks - Coolers and Benchmarks

[Palladium]

Unless the 6C overclocks a lot better, I can't imagine not going straight at least for the base 8C model. The 4C variants are too much of a sidegrade for OC i5/i7s which is almost everybody.

Not impressed!

My i7 4790K running at stock (4.2GHz) gets more points. And that's with DDR3.

The bench on the Ryzen were allegedly done on a board with a low end chipset. I think It had some implications on the clocks, like being stuck on the base clock? I'm not sure tho...

It's an 8-core processor running at 3.4 GHz doing a single-threaded benchmark (literally 12.5% CPU load).

4790K stock is 4.0 GHz, not 4.2 GHz.

It's not clear if Ryzen is running 3.4 or 3.8 GHz in the test so here's the theoretical math for both:
If 3.4 GHz, 4.09 GHz to get 2461.
If 3.8 GHz, 4.57 GHz to get 2461.

In either case, I'm spending $350 on an R7 1700 before spending $350 on an i7-7700K. Literally double the bang for the buck (8c/16t vs 4c/8t). It's not even a competition.

And even if you want to believe a pile of shit synthetic like passmark.... it was running slow ram (2133?) with 17-17-17 timings LOL. The whole thing is a joke (fud, I imagine).

AMD is called sandbagging! So when it comes out it is better than expected! xD

That's one test, and it's not known if it was running at the 3.8ghz boost clock or the 3.4 base, when at 4.2ghz I am betting it will be there or there abouts, I see no issue here, what's your point?

It's an 8-core processor running at 3.4 GHz doing a single-threaded benchmark.

4790K stock is 4.0 GHz, not 4.2 GHz.

We can do the theoretical math:

3.4 GHz / x = 2205 / 2461
3.4 GHz * 2461 = 2205x
8367.4 GHz = 2205x
8367.4 GHz / 2205 = x
3.79 GHz = x

In other words, a Ryzen core at 3.8 GHz can beat your Devil's Canyon core at 4.2 GHz.

For due diligence, it could be running that test at 3.8 GHz instead of 3.4 GHz. If that's the case then x = 4.24 GHz

Best case scenario: it's faster than Devil's Canyon clock for clock by almost 11%. Worst case scenario, it's about equal to Devil's Canyon clock for clock.

I didn't know it was running at 3.4GHz, if so it looks promising. And i7 4790k base clock is 4GHz but it can boost up to 4.4GHz when 1 core is active, up to 4.2GHz with all 4 cores active. That's default settings.

OCed haswell at 4.4 gives 2638 for the score (just ran it). But the uncore clock is at least 4GHz on mine (don't remember).

Exactly, and I'm betting all of the 8 core chips wuill easily hit 4.2 without sweating, looks promising indeed, not too mention 8c/16t of goodness

In the mean time my 1100T is doing 1325 x'D

No 3Dmark firestrike physics benchmark post? I am disappoint.

 

[Kanan]

Don't overload the hypetrain or it will crash! hahaha

Can't crash when it's already off the rails and flying!

 

[R-T-B]

Can't crash when it's already off the rails and flying!

Unless it crashes into the sun...

...But that would still be kinda awesome.

Gives "Ryzen" a whole new meaning! haha

nice to see... cant wait for reviews

 

[Komshija]

It's nice how AMD numbered new CPU's to resemble i3, i5 and i7. Interesting cooler designs despite fans looks like 80 mm or 92 mm at the most, so it would be interesting whether stock cooler will be able to properly cool down the CPU.

Nevertheless, numbers look very promising so far. If AMD really made a CPU which could beat i7 6700K or i7 7700K, than it is a great achievement, although I assume that its final price will be very close to (very expensive) Intel's competitors.

I wouldn't trust this one too much, take a look at single thread performance: Ryzen results are almost same at 3.3GHz and at 4GHz, while Intel CPU's scaling nicely. That's simply impossible.

That's multi-threaded (which seems alright), i was talking about single threaded results from VideoCardz:

800MHz difference and no performance gains. This just makes no sense whatsoever.

I am still reserved cuz I want Ryzen to be a success so I can buy it...so I will patiently wait for most of the reviews to come out...especially gaming ones if this is going to come close to Intel CPU's I am going for it.

Most of games still use 1-2 cores only, that's why I'm so interested in single thread performance. If it can beat i7 4790k in it, even by 1%, I'll get Ryzen right away. I don't give a darn thing about what it can do with 8C/16T.
