It's really charming to see AMD just throwing punches like there is no tomorrow. If they could only do the same for GPU's. That would be sweet for everyone. For AMD and us, the consumers. But doing great on CPU segment is also nice start I think.

Well, some news around Vega seems to be there. I'll see what they have to offer when dust settles down after release etc. Not worrying about it really.

The hype before buying a new rig is real, huh?

They seem to be doing okay for now, hopefully they stabilize their position on the market and make some new awesome parts.

They are throwing punches alright. Only that the fight is like between a Feather Weight vs. a Heavy Weight...

How so? Serve the Home just did a test of power efficiency on a 2C \ 128 thread platform and it chews under 500w under full load. Thats just insane.

It's the dumb "uh oh Ryzen is not for gamers" mega panic that's doing them problems. Reality is, Any R7 1800X will perform as good as 7700K and it'll also last longer than 7700K. 1800X are great now and it'll be great later. 7700K is just great now... The EPYC and Threadripper are in class of its own. They are more power efficient, cheaper and also provide far more PCIe lanes. Intel maxing out at only 44 lanes is like a really bad joke compared to 64 with AMD...

And the fine article states that was the absolute peak w/AVX2 workload.
