But the above which this thread is based off is 58,000 on the 1950X

The one you linked is old and was never confirmed legit

I couldn't find that score on the official geekbench page so I thought that was the one you guys was referring too.
I think you misunderstand me.

Firestirke/Timespy the more cores the better, up to a point yes. but ind the end Intel 14 core, will beat AMD 16 core in that 2 anyway. You saw how badly 1700/1800X did in timespy/Firestirke, that it got blow away by 6900k and even intels 7800X @OC water are close to 1700/1800x @Max OC on water. in timespy.

Heaven, is running best at 2/4 Cores, and are all up to Ghz.

You are still not going to beat any world record in Fierestrike/Timespy with just 8 cores.

When you Pre-order you don't get charged until the day of release or after shipping. Prices can easily change
Maybe in Your country.

And what price did the 7900X start on? :D Still, check Amazon and Newegg prices to get the right prices. They are equally priced, get over it. Bye. :)
In my country, we have alzashop and a few others. No NewEgg or Amazon. So arguing with prices from unreachable shops for billions ain't gonna cut the trick. Afaik, amazon and newegg barely shop to few hundred of million of people. The rest is dependant on theil local resellers.

MSRP is MSRP , who gives a damn what YOU have found it priced at. If I find a 1080ti at 100$ in a local shop does that mean that's the typical official pricing ? Of course not.

MSRP is total BS, that doesn't work anywhere, only for the few chosen. Whole world ain't USA, there are other countries You know.

MSRP is the only official number given meant to standardize prices in different locations. Of course this price is not always met , but arguing that your local pricing is anymore relevant that in any other place against a product that actually hasn't been released is extremely dumb.

As of now , MSRP is the only viable comparison and 7900X goes against 1950X in price.

I reckon You're very young [which is good] and know a little about real life. Your argument "MSRP is MSRP" proves it. And the only thing that is dumb is Your argument. A liter of water cost 10c in my country, in other countries it's up to 1 euro/dollar, somewhere even 10. MSRP is pium desiderium of manufacturer of how prices should be. Reality is different.

You don't need to look too far with the mining outburst fail worldwide, which is increasing the prices of many VGAs and PSUs to astronomical values. They're not following MSRP, they're following the market. And when the TR will prove as a wrothy comptetitor, the price tag won't stay by 999, but will rise up 20, 40, maybe even 60%.

You were comparing two products from which one hasn't been released and one is more or less close to the MSRP in most places. How the hell do you know how the pricing will evolve is beyond me.

7900X goes against 1950X at official 999$ MSRP , fact. Doesn't matter what pricing you get in your location. That's what these manufacturers are intending to price them at.

The NDA is up tomorrow, all the shops have TR in their stocks. Can You tell me one reasons why the price should change at my place?

Yeah , it shouldn't there is no reason. It'll be 999$ for both. Two products competing at the same price. :roll:

Again your place is simply irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

At this point you don't even know what you are arguing about anymore. It's confirmed that you're a troll. Now that should be enough for everyone to prevent them from giving you anymore attention.

Yeah, that's why I have better framerate on my i9 7900X, than I've had on my 1700X and 6850K also. Riiiiight ;). You know, You read stuff of people You don't know, I test my own :)
Wow, did you just really compare a $1000 CPU to a $300 CPU and said it gets you more fps? This fanboism is really getting insane...

In your country the 1950X will be cheaper than the 7900X maybe at start or 1-2 week after the shops don't want to make extra money from the new products. Fact.

My 1700X cost me 320e w/o VAT, my 7900X cost me 780e w/o VAT. I'm just pointing out on the architecture.

Didn't work so well with Ryzen 3/5/7, why should it work with Threadripper?

This is stupid. I'm from Germany and the lowest I have found 7900x was 938€. Also it's the lowest price in whole of Europe, as you can see here.

If you have found a deal for Intel one time, doesn't mean AMD doesn't have any deals lol. It actually does way more deals and price reductions from my own experience.

Its official price won't be raised by AMD. It would only happen if the stocks were out and AMD couldn't keep up with the production, like with the 580 cards. The shops got the maximum out of it.

Didn't work so well with Ryzen 3/5/7, why should it work with Threadripper?
Yeah it's true, your Alza webshop works were awkwardly. Anywhere, the 1600 is about 10% cheaper than the 7600K (USA, in my country, etc.). At Alza, it costs the same. So don't worry, at another store in your country and anywhere else, the 2 CPUs will cost the same. :)

Benchmark Scores Faster than yours... I'd bet on it. :)
Can I ask what made you buy a 1000$ 10 core CPU instead of a 1000$ 16 core CPU? Just wondering... :)
I didn't buy it. I'm a editor/reviewer (blessed and cursed all at the same time.. :p), Intel sent it. We didn't get (ask for, really) Threadripper as we didn't have anyone with the time to do it. Not sure they would have seeded us either... but, that is another story.

If both were staring me in the face though, I'd use the Intel CPU. I really don't use the threads can benefit from faster clocks and ever so slightly better IPC. In fact, you can see I run with 10c/10t to save on thermals and raise the clocks. ;)

If I had to spend the money myself, I wouldn't own the thing. I'd have a 7700K/Z270 or maybe a 7740K on X299. Again, I prefer 5Ghz with more IPC and willing to pay the price premium. I built my son a 1500X/X370/R9 270x rig... :)

Correct, not all cores will reach those boost clocks... that is(should be) a given. However, there is typically a couple-few hundred MHz bump with all cores. Intel doesn't seem to have 7th gen turbo breakdown as they do for previous generations yet. But I would imagine it to be AT LEAST 3.8 GHz if not 4 Ghz. Wiki (I know...lol, I know..) has it at 4 GHz. ;)

Boost 3.0 will place 2 cores at 4.5 GHz while boost 2.0 maxes out at 4.3 GHz.

EDIT: Also note, many motherboards by default will boost to all thread turbo out of the box. The Prime had my 7900X at 4 GHz all cores from the first boot. It did this on the mainstream platform across other vendors as well.

My Sabertooth X99 didn't, MSI X99A Gaming 7 does. It really depends on the board maker/board.

Silly kids, thinking that Threadripper is "just" for games.

Games are just a part of the whole ecosystem. If I buy a threadripper it will be for more than "just games". Judging only games is stupid.

You could still comfortably and smoothly game even with overclocked Bulldozer class CPU and GTX 1080Ti. Knowing how much faster IPC Ryzen has, I think I don't have to say anything further...

My ole FX-8350 @5.1GHz paired with a R9 290X was definitely a force to be reckoned with at 1080P
