Why's it gotta start when I leave for work? :/
 
I can't watch from work (on my lunch time)

Can someone summarize?
 
Zen3:
increase in performance and efficiency, best single thread performance/gaming performance
 
Zent 3 contd:
higher max boost, significan ipc uplift, new core layout, new cache topology, 7nm
 
Zen3 cntd:
cores on unified 8 core complex to improve core to core communication, lower latency, direct access to L3 cache, 19% IPC uplift
 
Zen3 contd:
most significant architectural change yet
advanced load/store performance and flexibiility, wider issue in float and int engines
19% IPC uplift geomean of 25 workloads, fixed at 4ghz 8 core workload
 
I just hear a bunch of keywords of increase, double, more, gaming...ohmy...
 
Zen3 contd:
2.4x performance per watt vs zen 1
24% performance per watt vs zen 2
2.8x more efficient than i9 10900k
 
5900x contd:
vs 3900x: rise of the tomb raider benchmark, 141fps vs 181fps, 28%, at 1080p
 
5900x contd:
cinebench 1 thread run vs 10900K: ryzen = 631, i9 = 544
 
Avg uplift 26%

Right now claims show fastest CPU on market period

Sorry Chintel you lose for now
 
This is looking good, can't wait to see reviews and how much availability shakes out.
 
5900x contd:
'the worlds fastest gaming CPU"
5950x: 16/32, 4.9GHz Boost, X.XGhz Base, 105w TDP $799
5900x: 12/24, 4.8GHz Boost, 3.7GHz Base, 105w TDP $549
5800x: 8/16, 4.7 Boost, 3.8GHz Base, 105w TDP $449
5600x: 6/12, 4.6 Boost, 3.7GHz Base, 65w TDP $299

Zen3 contd:
ryzen 9 5950x
16/12 boost to 4.9, 105w tdp, 72mb l2+l3 cache
 
Definitely the market leader but priced to match. It may be hard for me to justify a 5800x when 3700x can be had for ~$250 if not lower in the future.
 
5950x contd:
up to 29% more gaming performance vs 3950x
up to 59% more rendering performance vs intel
better/equal gaming performance vs intel
$799

Yeah, they're done being the budget "keep intel prices in check" option.
