Thanks for the information.

First, sorry for my english. I think that Ryzen 1800X is a excelent product, revolutionary would I say by allowing us access to so much power for such a low price, I am not interested in games, not in Windows and not in overclocking. The cause of this kind of disillusionment that there is now...

That these Ryzen R7 processor (8 cores / 16 Threads) are not ideal for gaming was evident for each technical guy. If you look in the Linux side (phoronix.com), the guys are excited with the 1800X performance.

I also think that Ryzen is a solid beginning for the future. The bests and more profitable AMD products will arrive later.

In phoronix.com there are benchmarks that run in linux OS.

Also the frequency base for the Ryzen 1800X is wrong. I think that is 3.6 Ghz, not 3.7 Ghz.

In the 1800X analisys, the frequency data for the i7-6900K is worng (ot it is OC).

I also play for long term. The most profitable products by AMD will arrive later (Naples by example).

Wall Street opens at 09:30h. It will be interesting to look the AMD stocks behavior tomorrow and friday.

It depends on the AMD stocks that you have. Wall Street opens at 09:30h. It will be interesting to look the AMD stocks behavior tomorrow and friday.

There is a time counter in the videocardz site.

With perf you can see this information.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. So according to you, Intel is now in the phase of laughter, right?

Intel can not do that, it would be like laughing in the face of its consumers who have paid over $ 1000 for the same thing.

And do not forget that the product where AMD can get more market share and also with greater margins is with Naples.

Just for fun. I found this video:

If a 6700k@4Ghz has a value of 31 for this prime benchmark, why the 7700K one is 27 (a lower value) with a faster clock?

If the result for i7-7700k is because this processor is only 4C/8T versus the other intel parts, the value in this prime benchmark should be approximately 40, not 27.

In the physics benchmark it happen same similar. This benchmarks must be memory bandwidth limited. This is typical in this type of benchmarks.

The low result for ryzen in primes surely is because this is a AVX2 benchmark. Also in this bench the memory bandwith must be very important because the intel i7-7700k has also a very low result (the i7-700k has 2 memory channels, the others intel parts have 4 memory channels).

Yes, the problem with GPUs are the applications that require a lot of memory and a lot of memory bandwidth at the same time. AMD has been working long time in line to integrate the GPU and CPU because AMD thinks that the future for scientific computing is that.

In addition, to obtain this type of performance (8 flops/clock for AMD or 16 flops/clock for Intel part) you need special libraries as intel MKL (for intel part) or OpenBlas, by example, where the mathematical kernels are written in assembler code.

Curiously, now there is no direct reference to Ryzen or Vega in the main page of the AMD site.

Hello, in Europe the price is higher. I am writing from Madrid, Spain. I just watched the prices for the i7-6900k in two very popular sites in Spain. The price is 1114 euros in one site and 1185 in another site. I am sure that in USA you can buy this i7-6900k below 1000 dollars.
