Great stuff. Damn. Someone take the blender and handbrake files and give it some analysis?

Goddamn it. 3.4 Ghz base. Beats a stock 6900k boosting to 3.5 Ghz while running at 3.4 Ghz. Man exciting times for the CPU market. I think AMD is back. :)

Huh, grain of salt for 1st party benchmarks (but a smaller grain than usual for running the benchmarks live, and posting some stuff online to help people reproduce them), but it looks like AMD might have actually done the impossible. Zen looks to be competitive with Intel's greatest in terms of IPC with better perf/W. Of course, both Blender and Handbrake should really stress the FPU, so the benchmarks we've seen so far are pretty similar...

Well, Broadwell is not quite Intel's greatest as far as IPC, is it?

I was thinking last night that I'm getting the upgrade itch. Zen could be in my future :)

piednoel claims QSV was not enabled in the cpu demos. Does that specifically affect just handbrake or also blender?

According to AMD at least, they have better IPC the BDW. But that is based on their own benchmarks. Might be a bit better or worse than SKL/KBL, but hopefully will be in the ballpark. Hence, "competitive."

Yeah, Skylake-X is coming. This is first generation Zen packing this much of a punch, Zen+ is definitely Skylake challenging material.

Lisa made quite the remark at the 6900k costing USD 1100. Time to bring those monopoly prices down, gotta love competition!



Also, they're now showing Ryzen + Vega running SWBF 4k maxed out at >60FPS. Nice!

It's not too far off Skylake, and Kabylake offers no improvement on that front. If AMD does run into any trouble it'll more likely be with clockspeeds; 3.4GHz isn't bad at all for an 8-core chip (though I expect Intel will clock Skylake-X more aggressively if Ryzen is competitive), but if the 4-core and 6-core versions are stuck in the same clock range, that'll be more of an issue.

Now we might find out if Intel has anything up it's sleeve that it has needed an excuse to release.
