AMD 1950x Threadripper leak benchmark on ranker.sisoftware.net

[IEC]

The projected performance is similar for my workloads, so TR 1950X is a no-brainer versus the i9-7980XE.

1) $999 versus $1999
2) 64 PCIe lanes versus 44
3) Better perf/W

Projected performance in what?

I was looking at the chart above that, the 6130 and the 6150,6154. If you look at the other chart, to make it easier, the 7900x is the only one at ~1000 and it has 10 cores, and has already been beaten in many pre-release leaked benchmarks, but I bet money, the REAL benchmarks will confirm that based on Ryzen, and EPYC benchmarks I have seen. To compare the TR with 7960x is not fair, since that cost 70% more than TR.

Not very good results. If confirmed Skylake-x 18c could smoke it badly.

Your beloved Intel 18 cores won't be able to get 4.5gh.

A warning to those overclocking Core-X CPUs. I just found a burnt contact on my 7800X. It was running 1.25v @ 4.7GHz. Looked worse than this but I stupidly rubbed it with my finger not realizing what it was.

TR looses 2 of 8 benchmarks ? and thats supposed to be horrible ? Both $1000 ? And using what memory ? This shows nothing.

It's very close in many of those benchmarks in first post, and thats only 7900X. It's horrible because I haven't expected TR 16C to be that close to Skylake-X 10C in so many benchmarks. I expected a clear lead like in 2 of those 7 benchmarks.

At what cost ? their 16 core is almost TWICE as much as threadripper, and their top of the line 18 core is somewhere above 3.3x the cost.

Yes it will be at heavy cost, $1999 for i9 18C vs $999 for TR 1950X. Intel doesn't like to compete in pricing.

Pins are very delicate, on Threadripper reportedly even more delicate than on Intel sockets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7xSs4s6olg . It could easily happen that some people hoping to save money with Threadripper will eventually end up paying more due to destroyed pins.

 

[aigomorla]

can we stop trying to justify the cost of 7980X over a 1950X.

Let face facts here, people who will even consider buying a 7980X are not worried about cost.
Its like trying to argue a future tesla purchaser, that a nissan leaf is a better purchase.

NO... just no.... its really a moot arguement at this point when looking at top flagships


lets look at straight metrics and peformance numbers please.... Because obviously if you can afford a 7980X and it has numbers behind it, you really wont care if you paid 2-3x more for the cpu.

Why the FUD?

He damaged the pins by trying to replace the socket protective cover, NOT in installing the CPU. You seem to have an agenda with these posts.

"Also worth mentioning again, as some folks do not seem to get my message. I did not damage the TR4 socket while installing the Threadripper CPU, that process was excellent in my opinion and shows how much thought and design went into its production. I damaged the TR4 pins when reinstalling the cover that protects the pins during shipment and install. This was totally my fault and none of the socket's design or implementation. However, all that does not negate the fact that these TR4 pins are incredibly delicate. So again, my message is to give warning to our readers that will be handling these processors."

I agree. Not only that, as far as I know, we only have 7900X benchmarks, no official TR until next Thurs, and no 7980X until ????

The FUD is spreading fast and furious even before then benchmarks are out ! I bought my TR based on the fact its 2 Ryzens on one chip, and quad channel memory, so more horsepower in one box, and based on what I know about my 1800x, I am thrilled that TR will most likely beat 2x1800x chips.

We will know a lot more next Thursday.

You forgot 4094 vs 2066.Ryzen can get more voltage from more pins.

Cool beans. And...I wonder what info Intel will release to try and distract?

Have you taken a look at TR's cartridge system - clearly designed for safer socket insertion than any x86 processor before it!
Plus what behrouz said.

That should be a warning to people who receive their motherboard before CPU and decide to take a look at it, reinserting the protective pin cover. Don't play with X299 or X399 sockets.

You forgot 4094 vs 2066.Ryzen can get more voltage from more pins.

From what we know TR has only 2 active dies and they probably don't need all 4094 pins. Its a speculation but it could be that only half of those pins are used, just as your reply is a speculation as we don't have the info.

Hmm, pretty impressive multi-threading there. Pity there are not more CPUs compared from 8 to 16 cores though.
