Ryzen benchmarking and overclocking results

erek · Mar 2, 2017

I just stand by my choice to get a Xeon E5-2696 V3 18-core... seems to perform very well on X99 especially in Cinebench against all of those Intel and AMD mainstream processors and only cost me a net total for $450... I still have an upgrade path to the E5 2696 V4 22-core also

It's settled, beating 6900k and 6950 sometimes is all hype. Nothing to see here, move along.

Sucking at lower res. means the processor is the bottleneck. In this case its Ryzen. Therefore if you are a gamer Ryzen sucks. Dunno why this is hard for people to understand. Ryzen was just hype as ALL AMD CPU's have been since Phenom.

I really wouldn't say this is hype. Vast majority of the leaks were correct and showed it multithreading like a champ with less single core IPC than a broadwell and later cpu.

Unfortunately the majority of us are playing at 1080p.

honestly I think these are bugs that need to be ironed out. In a couple of the reviews - they had to reach out to developers that said they are optimizing their code to support the new processor. I believe Ashes of Singularity was one in particular.

And just in case anyone is curious they make excellent box openers when the board dies on you the day before release.

You can say I was a little angry by this point.

my Xeon E5-2696 V3 18-core for $450 (net) seems to be the better choice than all of those options in the mainstream so far, imho

Estaric · Mar 2, 2017

Looks like a good cpu for the price thanks for the Images @cdawall

Well, from what I am reading its a good processor. Not the best, but darn good. Its not cause for me to trash my current system, but heck its one heck of a deal breaker when buying new stuff. Want to see more overclocking results under water as I hope some can get the 1800X up to 4.4ghz but that sounds like a pipe dream.

Well, I hope the 6 cores and 4 cores overclock to 4.4 and beyond!

ShurikN · Mar 2, 2017

Ran through a couple of reviews, and as a productivity chip its amazing. As far as gaming goes, it's competitive in DX12 titles and not so much in DX11. As the best of both worlds, I would probably wait for the top end 6c/12t part.

Regarding gaming performance what are they being benchmarked against from Intel? Ie latest 7700k or something else, is it just a case of the difference in clock speed between them or is Intel's IPC superior in gaming? On my phone so haven't been able to have an in depth read of any reviews as of yet

ShurikN · Mar 2, 2017

"One thing I did notice is that all the games I have looked at so far -- which is considerably more than the four shown here -- were smooth on the Ryzen processors. GTA 5 for example plays really well on the Core i7-7700K, but every now and then a small stutter can be noticed, while the 1800X runs as smooth as silk, sans stuttering from what I observed.

I found a similar situation when testing Battlefield 1. Performance was smooth with the Ryzen processors while every now and then the quad-core 7700K had a small hiccup. These were rare but it was something I didn't notice when using the 1800X and 1700X. But as smooth as the experience was, it doesn't change the fact that gamers running a high refresh rate monitor may be better served by a higher clocked Core i7-6700K or 7700K.

Some interesting observations from the techspot review

you know, after all is said and done, I am still getting it. Yeah gaming performance sucks and I do play a lot of games but I also use Maya a lot which usually is CPU and RAM. I am still excited to get it today!

Still calling it "Bulldozer 2.0" is some level of excessive.

It's a "meh" not a "omaigod!"

Oh, so thats a negative then on more overclocking?

It is? What else was available (Just curious)?

Yea I read that as well. I am very curious because its rare but I have had BF1 randomly skip a beat. Wonder if that's related.

I am disapoint.....i wanted to see some huge clockspeeds and higher IPC.

alucasa · Mar 2, 2017

For me, I will wait out and see how things are going.

Since gaming aspect matters virtually none to me, I see Ryzen as a good CPU, and since it's rated at 95w TDP and outperforms E5-2683v3 (at 120w TDP), I certainly see the benefit here.

But seeing there are no wide selection of mATX and ITX, I am forced to wait. I won't go for ATX unless I go dual-socket.

It seems to do IPC alright in certain things. It scores higher from a singlethreaded IPC perspective in the CPU-Z benchmark at 4Ghz than a Skylake CPU does.

What we've seen so far of overclocking and memory speed/bandwidth has been pretty underwhelming but I'll be thrilled to see that swing the other way once the NDA lifts. So far my workstation build is leaning back towards Intel which is going to cost me much more money so fingers crossed for Ryzen here.

Well there are issues with it right now. At least when it comes to memory stability and support.

Hexus review - Look at graph and then read the comment from the review.

http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/cpu/102964-amd-ryzen-7-1800x-14nm-zen/?page=9

However, and somewhat interesting to note, switching off the chip's SMT capability increased the average frame rate from 79fps to 85.8fps, suggesting that code is not running efficiently when there's SMT involved. Hopefully this problem will be fixed by a game-patch update.

Going back to SMT, switching it off also increases the Hitman score, from 91.4fps to 95.6fps, suggesting, once again, that having it active is definitely hindering performance. In fact, running Ryzen in non-SMT mode offers more performance in every scenario, and this is something that AMD needs to be concerned about.

In both instances, knocking it down to a 4Ghz 8 core/thread part, it beats the i7 7700k at 1440p resolution in Hitman and gains parity with the 6950/6900 in TW. These are almost certainly game coding shortfalls based on the behaviour of the benchmarks.

I am disappointed. Lousy gaming performance over Kabey Lake. I thought about upgrading to this but held off on preordering to wait for reviews. I think i'll wait for Canon Lake or maybe even x299.
