Yea synthetics don't mean much outside of marketing and engineers smack talking if the end product doesn't throw down good real life performanceHow it performs in common applications/games, overclock and power consumption. Then you got all the metrics you need for anything else.

For this launch, I really think that the synthetic benchmarks will be important for the low tech consumers.
Getting AMD into the general conversation outside of these forums has to be the major goal of this launch and good scores on synthetics goes a long way towards getting that done. IMO.
no performance/watt option?
Performance per watt makes AMD Ryzen the hands down winner. 95 watts vs 145 watts is a big winner for 1800X vs I7 6900k. Same is true for 6 and 4 core Ryzens.

can't look at it that way, Intel and AMD don't calculate their TDP the same way...... Ya need to look at individual applications and go from there.
It's too bad there isn't an easy thermal comparison, like performance per gram calorie or something like that.
That's probably true unless you care about passive cooling. I think there is a reason why fanless enthusiasts choose Intel. Like others, I want to AMD to up their game in PPGC (performance per gram calorie).Price/performance...it's really all that matters in a desktop application.

Nobody on this forum cares about that metric!no performance/watt option?

On a thermal basis, how does Ryzen actually perform? In order to match Intel's performance, does Ryzen generate more heat or less heat?
