Damn, still some intel fanbois try to convince us here to pay 500+$ for 8 core cpu? I mean - why? intel need our donations or something? I think they got plenty of our donations during past 5 years - selling us 4 cores for 400$ and 8 cores for 1000$ with 0-5% ipc gains over "generations"

"...An attacker would only need to be able to run an EXE with local admin privileges on the machine..." ...ONLY... :kookoo:

it is just sad... sad that we must wait for 1.5 years (since gtx 10XX) to get this -100$(maybe) cheaper product from competitor, so nvidia will level down those -99$ for their 1.5 year old GPU's and wont haste to release next gen - because there is nothing in market that challanges nvidias...

intel just dumping irellevant products they had ready in the drawer - thx for AMD these products will get dumped in market in next 6 months after RyZen - not in next 3 years -as intel was planning.

Knowing current price fixation and overall acceptance of that - I do not think that any of producers are interested in any advancements till 2020+... ram prices rose more than +100% (compared to previous year - I bought 16x4 ddr4 for two of my systems - and seriously had to find the receipts -...

those Thermalright 140mm fans are the real deal - I tested noctuals, all level of bequiet's and I stayed with Thermalrights 300-1300 (no matter color, naming, article and even price - they all are the same) - they are both - more silent at the low end (which is not granted - even with the big...

To Intel's defense - these were made and ready like 2-3 years ago... so they milked market as long as possible - but now they must dump it to the market, no matter that these chips are completely irrelevant even at 50% price drop when R5 will hit the market. so yea - professionals out there -...

every time I open something about Ryzen R5 leaks or R7 reviews - only thing I can read about (99% of the time) is: "*in annoying parrot voice* how is 1080, gaming, how is 1080 gaming, how is 1080 gaming"

I never care about absolute values (like who beats who by how much) - only thing I care is price/performance... and if this Vega in absolute is smashed by Ti, is little worse than 1080, and costs below 1070 - then I will hype the shyte out of my self. so far - AMD has not "crushed my dreams"...

saddly but this sounds realistic :(.... I mean if Vega was in the near future (like may-june.2017) then at this point we would have seen presentations, leaks leaks, rummros, leaked pcb designs, leaked product range, price scpeculations and what not (the thing we usually get when release is in...

fighting over GPu brands is beyond being stupid... evryone knows that AMD is the best - nothing to fight here :D

:respect::respect::respect: even though I will buy intel I need this RyZen so much

"+15%" for intel slides in real life means: "+0% IPC and +5% frequency" (that is a fact - not my opinion);.. and for this Cannon Lake - I would not hold my breth for another +5% frequency... so it will be precise +0% gains... well thx intel for honesty (I guess)

there is EVGA SuperNova... it always sounds to me like: "booooom, and your flat are on flames... only by evga" :D

mortar, tomahawk?... what next Big Boy?
