My 2950x would hit 165 ish single Thread in r15 at 4.1ghz.
The 3700x today in Mcenter they had on demo would hit 201 at 4.3ghz.
Umm that's no a result of a clock speed bump. That's a far more efficient core performance.
Intel guys just dont know how to yield this one to AMD
So why not let AMD eat thier cake this time. You'll get your 10nm Intel soon enough then you can eat your cake.
Kind of what I was saying earlier, AMD have made massive performance gains over last generation without clockspeed being the reason for that which is impressive on its own. If there is a Zen 2 + maybe they can squeeze some extra juice out of the process. I am interested in a 3700 but will likely just go with the 3600 which showed gaming performance on par with Intels 8th and 9th generation non K's and even showed remarkably better minimum frames than the 9600K in known thread junkie games. On a clock vs clock basis AMD is pretty much around Intel now, Intel have the buffer of more clockspeed and a very good memory controller but still this is a very convincing release
