Awesome, more cpus to not have motherboards for!

Microsoft actively blocks updates for Ryzen on Win7/8 when it detects Ryzen or intel kaby
Hey look! good news about AMD. Lets wait for Shintai to come and crap on it.
Nah, I don't block anybody: in my mind, everyone deserves to at least be heard. At least I can help correct misinformation when it is spread, instead of ignoring it.maybe you should join the club and block him then you don't have to worry about reading his trash posts..
Actually, from the benchamrks I've seen of an 1800X with one CCX disabled, the 1500X will be faster in games than the full 1800X. (Unless you want to run the 1800X with half the cores disabled.) The lack of CCX transfers cause much better gaming performance, and in most other cases, near equal performance with the 7700k, at default clock rates. The conclusion the reviewer had in regards to 1500X vs 7700K was 90% of the performance at 60% of the cost. The 1500X is going to push the 7700k price down, no doubt.
well rip there goes my theory and hope that it was just a single CCX on the quads... only thing that doesn't make sense though is that it's showing in the spec sheets 8mb L3 cache instead of 16, so why is the full 16mb of L3 cache not available all of a sudden if they're using a 2x2 config.
Looks like Lisa Su is proving to be a better CEO from a business strategy perspective than other AMD CEO's of recent memory.
She's staggering the release of these products masterfully to keep AMD Ryzen at the top of the tech news cycle much longer than any other AMD product launches I can recall.
Wish someone could edit this and make it into the AMD train for fun. It even took out a FX processor at the 26 second mark.
It's no competition for real
if a R7 clocked (OC) to 4.Ghz can't compete with a stock i7 then a R5 can't either
it's priced to compete with i5's
where it should show the same pattern
Back to the good ole days of pencil traces? I wouldn't count on that working well for a 4ghz+ pathway.This does make the most sense from a manufacturing standpoint. Only one manufacturing line for all the CPUs.
The most interesting part is whether or not we can unlock cores. It would be like a throwback to the Phenom II days, like trying to get a Phenom II 960T and unlocking it to be a 1090T.

i3 line isn't going to be the only victim. At this point, the i5 doesn't make sense anymore, either. Basically, a 4 core/8 thread CPU will become the bottom end for mainstream gaming with the R5's release. Anything with 4 cores and no HT, or less cores is already obsolete for a new build.This is where AMD will rule the roost imo. Intel's i3 line just wont compete.

So you'll still get a 350$+ i7 while complaining about CCX layout on a ~180$ chip. Way to make a terrible comparison there. Maybe had you said i3/low end 5?Oh the 4 core cpus are going to be a "blast" then. /facedesk
I was considering getting one to play around with because I was hoping it would be just one 4 core piece. But this? Nah. Maybe I'll reconsider and try a full 8 core cpu in the future. But I'll stick to my i7's for now. :/
