    There's a solution to the AMD conundrum.. wait 3 to 6 months before buying. Early adopters are oftentimes unsurprisingly disappointed at a new techs launch.

    • @dragonfyzex1546

      myplane150 nope, they make themselves dissappointed because they buy it for gaming. IT IS NOT FOR GAMING.

      AMD didn't say that it wasn't for gaming. Did they not feature the CPU benching on games? Yes they did. The answer is they knew it was not going to be good in games but saying it wouldn't would have affected pre-order sales. They didn't say "This is a Workstation CPU". It was most definitely marketed as a gaming CPU in an underhanded way. They knew it would not perform better than the i7 desktop line, so they feature it benching against an underclocked i7 workstation CPU. That being said, it does give a much higher priced Intel workstation CPU's a run for it's money and if that is your niche great. For that I can't deny that it would be a great buy for workstation applications. This right here is where I suspect Apple will start using them in their next line of Mac Pro desktops.

      AMD does have a tendency to get better over time, which is really bad for them; hype something for launch and launch tests show it 20% below where it ends up...but they are accurate. They'd be far better goign the NVidia route where everything is as good as it will ever get on launch day.

      @BaldurM 7 лет назад +2

      Yeah it was the same with socket 2011, lots of problems with the drivers at the beginning. They will iron them out and in a few months when r5, r3 is out and intel lowers it prices we will know where AMD stands.

    • @SheepWaveMeByeBye
      @SheepWaveMeByeBye 7 лет назад +3

      We should start recommending people to hold out on buying Intel until the R5 and R3 induced price cuts set in. ;-)

      I can't tell if you're joking or not. If you aren't, then get a new monitor and keep your CPU.
      Unless of course money is no problem here, then I'd say go with the fastest gaming hexa/octa-core CPU that money can buy.

      7700k is still the best gaming CPU for 1080p. it would technically even be an upgrade from a 5960x if you only game. 1080TI sounds killer though.

      For gaming wait for the R5 series benchmarks (though I wont expect much).

      What on Earth are you on about? Games don't use "1 unit of CPU" anymore, we can already see with some existing games using more than 8 threads... But yes games don't utilize the CPU effectively. However it's extremely difficult to program games to run many threads in parallel, without latency. Only a few games show more than 8 threads with high usage (80%+). Whereas the single GPU can always be maxed out because it always works with pixels, and not complicated code like AI, physics, audio, netcode, main logic, etc etc etc. We may never see the day when 8+ or 16+ threads will be used effectively.

    Linus. I HAVE TO CORRECT YOU . When speaking about snap chat you made the observation that the companies that rely on adds will make more than the companies that produce something. You agreed with Luke when he said you were making fun of Linus Media. I feel strongly that you do provide a service. Every day I look forward you ANY video. No matter the content, I play from your playlist for a bunch of random videos. I have always been into computers. I'm a electrician and a diesel mechanic who installs and repair generators over 2 megawatts that power large server farms. Your networking videos provided me with a solution to a problem that may have been very costly. In closing I want to thank you for the service that you DO provide and I hope you will continue for a long time.

    • @jessemackenzie6516
      @jessemackenzie6516 7 лет назад

      Plasmaboo. I know (or is it no?) how to spell Diesel. I have no idea why it entered that way especially with spell check? I do not understand what you mean by ( or bi ? )
      "And, the hell is that specific "diesel mechanic" job?"
      Keep in mind this is a you tube comment. If you need more proof that I'm ( or should I put I am ? ) educated enough to ( maybe its too? ) know how to ( too or maybe 2 ) spell ad I would be more than or is it then ?? happy to accommodate you or is it u?
      The one time I write ( right , wright or write your choice ) a positive response to a video it takes 2 hours for someone to be negative. Here's to looking at the glass half empty. No wonder the world is in the bad shape it is. Negative people looking to find problems with everybody. I will leave you with one last piece of advice. Next time you feel it necessary to direct negative energy at someone , stop and think for a moment. Maybe that person is going through a very tough time in life. They might be dealing with someone sick at home or what ever. The point is no one needs negativity in their ( there ) life. Take your energy and use it for something positive . Even if its just as simple as a reply to a You Tube post. The ball is in you court. P.S You are welcome to inspect any other posts because I can 100% guarantee to you that I will have many more spelling errors for you to make me aware of.

    • @flickster1980
      @flickster1980 7 лет назад

      Plasmaboo, Jesse was never bragging about himself. Read his post again he was simply saying thank you to Linus for how his videos helped him during his job. Try not to be such an ahole. It is simply a RUclips comment, the guy doesn't need to have perfect grammar or spelling, regardless of the content.
      How pathetic of you to insult and bring this person down for doing nothing more than sharing his thoughts. He didn't insult anyone and is 100% correct about too many aholes existing on RUclips that have nothing better to do than send negative energy towards people. Grow up and take a good long look in the mirror.

    Why the fuck does no one understand, AMD Ryzen 7 CPU SKUs are not meant to be for pure gaming, its the job for the Ryzen 5 and their budget lineup Ryzen 3. If you're too impatient get a fucking i7 or i5 for sheer gaming. The Ryzen 7 having 8 Cores has incredible multi-threaded performance, and its less than half the price of an i7 6900K

      Its IPC is within 10% of Intel which is pretty amazing. It's held back by low clock speeds at the moment which is to be expected with first generation architecture.
      If AMD can coax out higher clock speeds out of Ryzen say for example a 4 core 8 thread same clock speeds as 7700k then it will be within 10 percent of said processor.
      Which when factoring in price is amazing.
      There's no reason to shit on Ryzen ( unless memory issues persist and smt issues persist)
      As its done precisely what Amd intended, got within striking distance of Intel but at fair better cost.
      Unfortunately the hype level got to high and people expected a brand new 8 core cpu to go head to head with a 4 core cpu with a huge clock speed advantage.

    • @alienrenders
      @alienrenders 7 лет назад +16

      Because he had realistic expectations. So did I. Did you see the compile speeds on 1800X? This is what I need it for (and the occasional CPU rendering). Also, once you go 8 core, you're never gonna want to go back. The 1800X is FAR beyond anything I could have dreamed. I never thought AMD could pull it off.

Imagine what they could do if they had even half the budget of intel. Their dollars go a lot further that's for damn sure...

    • @Cs1de

  • @TheBoyChur
    @TheBoyChur 7 лет назад +161

    1800x is a 6900k for less than half the price yet somehow intel fanboys are saying amd has failed??? lmfao
    the 7900k better be cheaper than the 1800x or be a 10 core with the 7950x being a fucking 14core
    I also could not give a dildo if the 7700k is 20fps faster than the 1800x when the 1800x is already over 100fps!!!! (it matters if you have some disgusting 144hz - 240hz monitors though)
    by all means though, if you only game, get the skylake or kabylake i5 or i7, best gaming cpus ever, but for us gamer/motion graphics/video editors, the 1700x 1800x is a gift from god lol.....yoza

      @fullyverified7491 7 лет назад +3

      No hes not saying AMD are morons. What hes saying is that most motherboard companys did not have there bios ready in time for when the cpu released, meaning that the cpus could not perform properly.

    • @Jirekianu
      @Jirekianu 7 лет назад +9

      Joker had a gpu bottleneck for his 1080p testing. Which is why he was getting the exact same numbers or nearly.
      If you look at his 720p video he did you can see a 10-20% on average fps difference between Ryzen 7 1700 and 7700k. Which a few rare moments being 30-35% (though that's the exception).
      Even AMD themselves on a call with Gamers Nexus admits that they're supposed to be parity with broadwell-e, but not matching the 7700k. Only about 10-15% behind. Which Joker's video shows that. Anything more than that is optimization or things like bios/efi issues.

    • @FEVB
      @FEVB 7 лет назад +2

      GPU bottleneck at 1080p.

    • @Jirekianu
      @Jirekianu 7 лет назад +1

      Let's run down some quick facts shall we?
      Joker OC'd his Ryzen 1700, and 1800x, and got near identical benchmarks to a 7700k with what is otherwise the same hardware.
      Other reviewers saw a 15~% disparity in fps benches at 1080p. With some instances spiking it as high as 20-30%
      When Joker dropped down to 720p, that 15~% disparity suddenly shows up. With a few instances spiking it to as high as 30%, just like other reviewers saw. Even with the same hardware and bios/efi versions other reviewers used.
      The most likely explanation, especially since he's the outlier here, is that Joker's setup was somehow causing his GPU to bottleneck at 1080p.
      Don't get me wrong. I wish Joker's results were solid and repeatable with other reviewers. But a fair number of other reviewers saw that gap in performance that you see when he did his 720p video. Which wasn't present in the 1080p video. For some reason. I'm not saying that Joker did anything intentionally. Nor am I saying he's dumb or anything. It could be some kind of weird issue with his system overtaxing his GPU somehow at that resolution or just when he was testing that day.

    Honestly is super disappointing to see all these stupid people and companies that have no idea how CPUs work destroying AMDs stock and launch. Games are optimized for 4 cores.. it's how it has been for awhile now. Also anyone with common sense knows that 4ghz is faster then 3.6ghz... aslong as the instructions per click are similar the 4ghz will be faster.... and if you on a game that only uses 4 cores. The faster clock speed will win while the other 12 AMD cores with do nothing... But gaming is not everything. of course the 7700k will game better!!! it's clocked a lot faster. Games aren't ready for 8-16 cores yet... but they will be one day! This has always been a problem with AMD there FX series was high core count, but low clocks and low instructions per clock. Zen is a great platform that is destroying Intel in speed per cost. Intel even lowered prices RIGHT away! If your a hard core gamer I would say wait for the Zen R5 series to come out; the 4 core 8 thread and 6 core 12 thread CPUs with better clock speeds. I guarantee you that these CPUs will be very strong in gaming! and probably good overclocking! AMD already said that game developers are currently working on optimizing there games and software for the high Zen core counts. This is good for everyone even Intel! Your 10 core 20 thread CPU may actually be better in gaming. R7 are more workstation CPUs that game very well! AMD said they would be for the hard working gaming market. Core gamers just wait for R5.

    • @WithinTheSoul4u
      @WithinTheSoul4u 7 лет назад +1

      Eric Christensen lol since its the same architecture it will not overclock better, temps will still be high and gaming performance will be equal to the 1800X.
      The only diference will be in lower cache size and probably in freq andpower draw. This has been the case in every gen of cpu's from bothamd and intel.

    • @MountCydonia
      @MountCydonia 7 лет назад

      Eric Christensen The problem is that almost every game ever released will continue to run better on Intel CPUs. If in the future developers are able to optimise for >4 cores, then sure, AMD's performance will improve, but you can't just ignore all the games released so far that are optimised for 1/2/4 cores.
      Either way, Ryzen is a fantastic platform. AMD weren't able to beat Intel in raw performance, but they've practically matched them at either equal or priced as low as half as what Team Blue charges. This is without proper drivers or software support. In a few years, we may well be seeing AND beating Intel not only in price and value, but also performance.

    • @WithinTheSoul4u
      @WithinTheSoul4u 7 лет назад

      Anyone In Cherno
      Tbh the performance inevery other task is great for the price point BUT by the time they get the drivers fixed and bios problems and everything else intel is going to realease something even better. Future wise is poor .. i mean wtf amd only 2900 ram on ddr4?
      There are alot alotof games already out that suport more cores than 4 and they still do better on higher frequencies ... so amd is still behind in for gaming.
      They stress the higher resolution is were it shines, ok lets say we run it at high rez. and overclock both amd and intel... intel is still going to win just because it can overclock so well.
      I like competition but this is just a hiped up arhitecture that its not delivering on either gaming or overclocking and if u get a pc yo run 4k u will whant overclocking and gaming performance.
      Well i think intel is still going to milk us of $ just because they can. Feelsbadman

    • @WithinTheSoul4u
      @WithinTheSoul4u 7 лет назад

      Mario
      First i'm typing from a phone, second I compare frequencies because 1 can only increase it by 300mhz and the other by 1000.
      Even if 1mhz from ryzen was equal to 2mhz from intel u still get a lower speed at that diference in overclocking u dumb fuck. If u like to pay more for something that performs worse just to say u have more $ then by all means go for it but if u care for performance go and read a bit before comenting some nonsese.
      Ryzen its just not that good for gaming period, if u buy it for something else yes its great but AMD did say its a comeback for highend gaming and its NOT. Not even talking about all the bios and driver problems that by the time they get fixed intel will counter them again.

    People crying about Ryzen being crappy:
    1. We don't know how well 4 core CPUs will perform, and those are which we gamers are interested in.
    2. These things actually beat Intel at 8 cores, with less power usage, and HALF THE PRICE, and even in games the difference is about 20%. Would you pay $500 (R7 1800X--->I7 6900K) for that 20% extra power in games, while losing a little bit (1-2%) in rendering and other things those eat 8 cores? And I know, I7 7700K beats both 6900K and 1800X, and is cheaper, but as I said, we don't know how AMDs 4 and 6 core CPUs will perform, and those are going to be with about the same price tag as the 7700K
    3. And as Linus said, the games are not exactly compatible with the Ryzen, just give it time.
    Also more and more people are starting to capture their games, stream and stuff, which means more and more people trying to cut and render videos, and there Ryzen even beats Intel.

  • @shawnm607
    @shawnm607 7 лет назад +1

    Interesting as there's several validated benchmarks indicating the single threaded IPC is near, or slightly below the Core i5 7600K (stock with turbo). Also in various published benchmarks AMD's SMT implementation seems to cause wild delta's in the results regarding several video games.
    The early AMD demos didn't really express single threaded IPC, in fact they did a very good job obfuscating anything relating to those specific types of benchmarks.
    In the end even the 6900k's single core performance isn't much faster than a 7600k, which is why there's a bit of confusion between the massive delta's in various benchmarks between the two CPU's (1800X vs 6900k) particularly in gaming.
    This is basically the common argument of cores vs clocks, to which the results in most situations regarding games will almost always favor clock speed, this being especially true for software not heavily multithreaded like most modern game engines.
    It should be obvious as to why the 7700k would generally be faster in gaming against the 1800x in most situations. Which is no different than attempting to compare the Intel Xeon E5-2679 v4 @ 2.5 GHZ to a Core i7 7700k @ 5.0 GHZ in game benchmarks, the later would absolutely destroy the Xeon in gaming, yet in heavily threaded apps the $4,000 Xeon takes a dump on the Core i7 7700K.
    AMD got ahead of itself by pushing hype around gaming when the target audience for its high end CPU's focus on heavily threaded, and highly parallel tasks. The more cores you pack into a die, the harder it is to scale higher clock speeds, therefore single core IPC may suffer this is just the way it is because science.

    In games:
    Did you try disabling 4 cores to hopefully make them work as in the i7 1700?
    In another video I saw the i7 cores were being utilized at around 88% on a game whereas on the Ryzen each core was using around 50%...maybe this all has to be with core synchronization in realtime processes as it is a common concept we people that work in real time audio composition know.
    For realtime audio, if you wanna use lots of stuff the rule is "Is always better to have less cores and higher clocks" because if you spread the load onto too many cores the performance decreases because now core/threads syncronization is at play.
    Probably that problem is now new to gaming as multithreading with DX12 and Vulkan are now available and you guys are finding the shortcomings of having more cores in realtime critical processes.
    Try disabling 4 cores if you can from the BIOS/Tweak app. Or change the affinity of one game to use only 4 cores.

    Wait what? Intel didn't cut no prices, some retailers did. Thats a big, clear and important difference - thats not an Intel response at all. I don't think Intel will react much to Ryzen, until infant.stage issues are resolved and optimizations properly roll out, and we all get a bigger picture of what we're /really/ dealing with.

    The non X 1700 is the one to go for, it'll clock to 4.0GHZ on all cores with a simple 40x multiplier and voltage bump, beats the 1800x in alot of benchmarks when clocked to 4.0GHZ. The R7s are not designed for gaming and it was probably a bad move if they tried to market it as such, it's aimed at top tier i7's and does a great job competing with those and is a no brainer for the price\performance. SMT is not configured properly in windows so it'll perform even better when patches and windows updates come out. For gaming the workload should be on the GPU not the cpu why would someone drop £400 on a graphics card (designed to take the load) and run 1080 ? upgrade your monitor to get the most from the graphics card. I think Linus was right to run tests at 4k because you're getting the best experience. Some people are running tests at 720 with an overclocked 7700k at 5.0GHZ without OCing the 1700 and you're surprised the 7700k looks faster ? either people are very easily mislead or actually don't have a clue. I don't care if I use an Intel or AMD but the R7's are fantastic processors, once intel make 8 core mainstream watch the games start utilizing all cores and see these R7's soar (and actually go up in price). AMD are actually ahead of the curve right now and it's a case of developers catching up not the other way around. In 12 months when more games are using all cores see how the 7700k stands then. I do believe alot of reviews are biased to intel, no one mainstream has actually OC'd the R7 chips on all cores but are replying on AMDs boost which doesn't work properly right now, go into bios, up the multiplier, bump your voltage up a bit, 4.0GHZ the 1800x should hit 4.2 on air with a good cooler, then run your tests against 5.0GHZ 4 core processors.
