Yeah it beats it by a little and 1800X is clocked 400-500Mhz higher than the 6900K at stock clock for non turbo and turbo. How would it fare a the same clock speed.
But yes if you do not overclock and intend to leave it at stock speed, the Ryzen 1800X is a much better buy especially for the price than the 6900K if gaming is not your primary usage.
I am no Intel fanboy, just stating the facts. I wish AMD could beat Intel or be neck and neck with them like back in the AMD Athlon 64 X2 days were AMD spanked Intel or in the P4 Northwood and Athlon XP Barton and Athlon 64 days where they were neck and neck.
Yeah AMD fans fail to realize Ryzen has performance of Haswell. That's quite bad. It's also quite a buggy CPU. FM3 bug, VME bug, high speed RAM problems, cold boot DRAM voltage bug, FMA4 is implemented but CPU claims it isn't supported. Instructions work, but sometimes give "wrong" results. AMD is giving it very cheaply in form of Ryzen 1700 which can be OCed so people are happy even though its buggy.
Trolling is not allowed.
