lol at intel. They really cant stand competition do they. They want to put away AMD before they even hit the market, so they can sit on their asses for another 5 years again.

What can they do, really? They can either :
a) cut prices and hurt their margins. This option is not viable as intel will not do that.
b) release some higher clocked 8C or 6C models at around similar price or higher price than today. This option does not really work because AMD will be having better perf./watt/$ ratio anyway.
 
Looks like Intel got their hands on Ryzen either directly or third party and the results are sending them into a panic, so they are releasing a hail mary pass sample as a response?

THE PLOT THICKENS.

Thanks!

This is excellent news, competition pushing Intel to make better stuff. Awesome.

BenchLife says Skylake-X 6C/8C/10C are all 'K', which means Intel could reduce the price of these parts compared to Broadwell-E (with the same number of cores, considering 10C = X), and the new X model could be quite a beast. How about 12C + new cache structure? Wonder what the new CPU CPC is talking about is. 🙂

Except what new CPU could they release? (That's not Skylake-X or Kabylake-X) That's sort of why I think it's BS.

But-but the benchmark! If that benchmark was legit intel had nothing to worry about. Could actually ryzen be the real deal?

7750K. 4.4GHz base/4.6GHz all core turbo/4.7GHz single core turbo. Just a WAG.

How quickly can intel scramble and release new stuff?! It takes amd forever to get stuff out, can intel really act this quickly. I guess their superior R&D budget shows. I feel bad for Amd.
 
If they are concerned enough they have the funds and fab capacity to deliver multiple new SKUs to act as alternatives for some or all Ryzen SKUs. Dealing with the 8c Ryzen SKUs could be tricky depending on AMD's pricing.

AMD has been shouting about Ryzen for a while now, and releasing a higher clocked Kaby isn't exactly hard. It means more aggressive binning (testing for and finding samples that can hit the desired frequencies at the desired power consumption), but no fundamental silicon changes.

Given that all Kabys seem to be able to hit 4.8ghz+, I think Intel has a good deal of headroom to put out faster SKUs out of the box. Won't matter so much to people who will OC the chips anyway, but reviews tend to test stock performance.
 
Precisely I believe/agree with CanardPC, if Zen has price/cost advantage, Intel need action or something new to counter, if they don't wanna cause price war, then some new SKUs will be option. I guess some new mid-range KBL SKUs are on the way.
 
What benchmark would have caused Intel to panic though? I haven't seen one.

Mind you I'd like to see Intel release a quick response to RyZen. This sort of competition is what we've all been waiting for.
 
Guys, I read the few last pages and this is a waste. Dont believe all leaks around the internet, specially not specification of Ryzen chips. Its hollaback. And bad hype for AMD 😵.



Better to wait few weeks and you will see reality.
