[Havel]

Really impressed so far.

 

[R1CHO]

No more benchmarks? Sad panda.

Please amd kick intel's ass.

 

[The Dear Leader]

The real question is, how much will this Ryzen chip cost compared to the 6900K?

I can't imagine it will be anywhere near the $1,100 a 6900k costs.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

What a crappy demo

 

[Ricerocket]

That's it for Zen I guess?

 

[Sad Affleck]

I'm hoping for at least one game benchmark.

 

[ace22b]

They compared it to 7700k earlier so I assume price would be in the ballpark.

 

[Tallshortman]

Yeah this Zen isn't going to be in the Scorpio, lol.

Of course not, anyone expecting their high end sku in Scorpio was delusional. At best it would have gotten one of the lowest if not lowest part.

 

[RenditMan]

Damn amd bringing the rain.

 

[What A Time To Be Alive]

Kinda wanted to see a Cinebench demo

 

[FinKL]

Lisa is comparing cost a lot so I'm assuming it's going to be cheaper.

It's just a case of how much cheaper.

Right, that intel CPU is out of range for a lot of us, seems like a majority of owners hover around the intel 6600-6700 range which is $300-$400.

I doubt they'll hit this price point, but we'll see in a few.

 

[nadozza]

... and what is the point of building this machine in VR? :S

 

[Hesemonni]

I'm totally sold on VR now /s

 

[mercenar1e]

cmon dorito pope show me the goods.

 

[QuantumSquid]

I can't imagine it will be anywhere near the $1,100 a 6900k costs.

I mean obviously, those benchmarks wouldn't be impressive at all if that was the case.

 

[Intru]

Didn't they cover up the clock speed of the AMD CPU during the handbrake bench?

I don't have audio turned on since I'm at work though...

 

[Head.spawn]

Where is HydroGlide Man? :/

It was default without any boost, 3.4

 

[PnCIa]

3.4 means nothing by itself. IPC performance will be important when comparing it to Skylake/Kaby Lake.

Since the IPC is supposedly within range of modern Intel processors, it actually means that they could have something good on their hands this time.

 

[Proelite]

Of course not, anyone expecting their high end sku Scorpio was delusional. At best it would have gotten one of the lowest if not lowest part.

If Zen was in Scorpio, it would have been mentioned by now by MS.

 

[Intru]

That's awesome, thanks!

 

[Ricerocket]

Titan X with Zen for their 4k demo.

 

[Compsiox]

No framecounter?

 

[blu]

95W - check. Now give me a non-extortion price.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

It feels very odd that these demos are running on a Titan X. It's a shame they weren't ready to demo with Vega.

 

[BasedKiliK]

What framecounter.

 

[nubbe]

lol They are totally running Battlefield on a Titan or 1080

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

If Zen was in Scorpio, it would have been mentioned by now by MS.

Before AMD even formally announced the CPU?

EL OH EL

 

[phansen]

They're only talking about 8C/16T which seems overkill for gaming. I' way more interested in an i7-6700k/7700k competitor.

 

[R1CHO]

Man, show us the framerate!

 

[nadozza]

Titan X with Zen for their 4k demo.

Well it's not like they have a competing part yet, if they left an RX480 in there it would be the bottleneck, not the CPU. Hopefully we see something new GPU wise soon

 

[Vuze]

lol Titan X for the demo
Demo is quite useless, need them frame times etc

 

[CarbonFire]

Nvidia graphics card in an AMD CPU demo....lol.

 

[mercenar1e]

is it just me or did the AMD version look worse? it didn't seem like it was 4K ultra.

 

[exmachina64]

Not really.

Zen is Ryzen
8 cores, 16 threads
3.4GHz+ base frequency
20MB L2+L3 cache
95W TDP

Now live benchmarks

What a stupid name.

 

[masterkajo]

Nvidia graphics card in an AMD CPU demo....lol.

AMD confirms Nvidia > AMD?

 

[PnCIa]

is it just me or did the AMD version look worse? it didn't seem like it was 4K ultra.

Zen downgrading image quality for better performance confirmed.

 

[QuantumSquid]

Ryzen Speed Dating LIVE!

 

[Compsiox]

Nvidia graphics card in an AMD CPU demo....lol.

AMD confirms Nvidia > AMD?

Maybe to stop people from thinking Intel/Nvidia is must have combo?

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Jeff trying to get the scoops

 

[What A Time To Be Alive]

They're only talking about 8C/16T which seems overkill for gaming. I' way more interested in an i7-6700k/7700k competitor.

Cannonlake and beyond is going to pushing towards 6 cores in the i7 processor.

AMD is just going ahead in terms of cores idk :S

 

[LelouchZero]

No better way to test CPU Performance in Battlefield 1 than single player...

Oh man, I know there's many variables at play in multiplayer but it's pretty pointless to test CPU performance in single player, multiplayer performance is a lot more CPU bound.

 

[Adam M]

If it's under $250 then I postpone my pc build, but it won't be 250

they didn't even include the FPS counter which seems suspect as hell lol

Weren't ready to show off Vega I guess.

Hopefully at CES.

 

[blastprocessor]

Guess Vega isn't ready just yet hence the Nvidia Titan

 

[chrislowe]

looks to be 500USD

 

[RenegadeXV8]

From Anandtech:

To that extent, at the pre-briefing, Ryan was shown two systems running Titan X graphics cards in SLI and Battlefield 1 at 4K settings - one system was running Ryzen, and the other an i7-6900K (the 8-core Broadwell-E chip). Ryan was unable to determine an obvious visual difference between the two frame-rate wise, which was the point of the demo.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

So no VEGA today?

 

[What A Time To Be Alive]

So no VEGA today?

Nah, just Zen.
