0-5% difference in gaming, but with the popularity of streaming now I wonder if these handle the broadcast workload better to minimize any fps loss. Anyway, as is the deficiency is near meaningless and I'd also be curious to see how it changes in the near future with presumably better multi-threaded nextgen console games.

These can't even beat an i5 9600K in gaming, and that's before overclocking. They OC like crap and need 1.4v to hit 4.3. Same old story as before. As soon as Intel gets their new node up and running, AMD will be right back in the moar cores bargain bin. I didn't want this to happen. I wanted AMD to run over Intel like a truck. No use in lying about the way I feel regarding these new CPUs. I wouldn't buy them for anything but maybe a dedicated video encoding rig or something and we already had threadripper for that, so...DOA IMO.

I agree.

People with Ryzen CPUs cannot have a good gaming experience, just like people who own a motherboard without the word "gaming" in the model name.

Seriously though, it's one thing to say Intel is the highest performing gaming CPU, but it's a whole different ballgame to post nothing but hyperbole like this. In fact, he 2700X was named the best overall CPU of the year by several hardware review sites, but you seem to think it has gaming performance as good as a Cyrix CPU.

You have to factor in the memory bandwidth of course, given that most reviewers kept the Coffee Lake Refresh on 2666 Mhz. Which is quite fair.

I'd also be curious to see how it changes in the near future with presumably better multi-threaded nextgen console games.

Too tough to say at this point, but you're talking 2 years I imagine as the first wave of games for the new consoles will still be designed around the PS4/XB1 but you'd get higher frame rates/higher res/RT eye candy on the new consoles.

The problem with the gaming results is that we are kinda back on Ryzen 1000 vs 7th gen launch again. I expected more and im sure im not the only one.

I want to see more in deep results for gaming, this is a clear issue with high mem latency, as CS:GO runs better on AMD now, this is due to cache being efficient for basic games like CS:GO and not enoght for more modern and complex games. We also need to look closer at what linus said that forcing al threads into one chiplet privided faster performance whiout random fps drops. That could be caused by two things, Windows scheduler or cache misses.

2-5% at best which part confuses you? and better at everything else, so AMD improve cache, bad, AMD close gaming performance bad, AMD offfers much better price/performance bad.... I'll bet you're a real hit at parties aren't you.... Buzz Killington

Are there any memory latency sensitive benchmarks to showcase Zen 2 worst case scenario, or do anyone remembers any equivalent Nehalem era comparisons (Bloomfield vs Arrandale)? I'm rather amazed at the results since I wasn't expecting to Zen 2 to significantly improve gaming performance as much as it did considering that the Memory Controller is now offdie. The massive Cache L3 should be doing rather well hiding the extra memory latency, because it seems to perform consistently faster in absolutely everything than Zen+.

yes as i said, petty much back on Ryzen 1000 vs 7th gen when the diference was below 10%. Is on the 1700 site https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-ryzen-7-1700 .
Just replace 1700 for 3700 and 7700K for 9700K and thats it is. So dont blame me for expecting more than this.
No, 10% is not the same as 5-0% if you need me to explain the schemantics out for you on this then I guess you better just call it a night, 1-2% is withinthe margin of error, 3-5% is Ryzen 2 Vs the top dog 9900k at 1080p, take it to 1440p and it goes down to 3%, 4k? no difference but still Ryzen 2 Kicks ass, da fuk did you want? 20% more FPS from a CPU when it's dependant on GPU? AMD here's ou new CPU, it means you dont have to have a GPU cause it can render games at +50% of a 2080Ti

What more do you want...

The amount of CPU power you can get on mainstream has TRIPLED in the past 3 years (and will soon quadruple). What's more, even the lowly Ryzen 5 3600 is within spitting distance of Intel's best at gaming... for half the price or less!

It's pretty clear that Intel *must* adjust their pricing as Linus says:

Side note: This testing was run with 3600 CL16 memory for both parties.

inter-core latency comparison from Hardware Unboxed

Wow, that's impressive. I gotta test that myself . . .

der8auer on Ryzen 3000 overclocking and delidding: it's over 5000!!!

That is a good review. Good thing I posted it on the first page already . . . heehee.

well.... I dont know if anything is set in stone I really hate to say but, I actually read that PBO up to 4.85Ghz in some cases, but I don't know which cases.

See the der8auer vid. Why AMD, why? I agree with him. Wait for UEFI updates though.

Now I know why Intel 10nm postpone

Nah Intel has more problems than TSMC/AMD. Intel can't hit 85% yields on anything they're trying to make with 10nm. Clockspeeds are the last of their worries.

Sounds like The Stilt is a bit pissed at Asus for delivering a "faulty" BIOS with altered power consumption behavior.

That might make sense. Results are all over the map on power consumption. I smell some re-reviews ala AnandTech's re-review of the 9900k.

Anyway, as is the deficiency is near meaningless and I'd also be curious to see how it changes in the near future with presumably better multi-threaded nextgen console games.

I think that was tested partially in Linus' video? 3900x was streaming king, but 3700x also showed impressive streaming results. Yes it was!

Nahhh 1800x was never that close to 7700k. Not within 0-5%.

Yep, Linus' video has some BFV streaming results. The 3900X handily takes the cake there. 3700X also beats 9900K.

Timestamped link here:

I thought the issue he identifies with running with 1 die only was supposed to be fixed by Windows 1903 scheduler fixes, but too many unknowns at this point to speculate further.

Any review that tests VR performance yet? I'd also be curious about mGPU performance and if Zen 2 has any benefits for that.

Another aspect, PCIe 4 might actually lead to better gaming performance if games stream assets in much, where the extra bandwidth on an SSD might have benefits for gaming that don't necessarily show up in FPS. Especially if there were some games that took advantage of it (which the next consoles are talking up quite a bit, so it might actually become a thing).

Hmm, after watching der8auer's video, I'm thinking someone with a Peltier cooler setup is laughing maniacally right about now...

Let moonbogg be happy with his comments. It is true that Intel is approximately 3% faster than AMD in 1080 games. Today he can't say that Adobe is the reason for having Intel, I use WinRAR and it is significantly better on Intel, the I9-9900K uses less power than Ryzen, Intel's multi threading is better, security is Intel's forte, Intel costs less, Sunny cove is announced for desktop. Let him hold onto his last bastion of grace, gaming performance.
What's really humorous is you know he doesn't even own a 9900k because he's too cheap to pay the premium. What does he have? Something that was a great price/performance processor. AMD's crushing the price/performance now, but he wants to focus on the extreme ends which isn't even his use case. Gold, Jerry. Pure gold.

So, I just got back from a 500 mile drive(to get home). I started at 6 am when this all started. So, Aside from the fact that you now have to give $640 for a 3900x, and I won't pay that, below is my take on the reviews and comments.

First, bios appears too beta, performance and power should get better when bios is not beta.
Second, no mention of what PCIE4 really brings that an X470 can't provide.
Third, single core performance sometimes beats, and sometimes looses to 9900k
Multi-threaded 3900x is the new king in power and efficiency.
Gaming is now so close it's not a compelling reason to get a 9900k, especially given point 1 which could still make a big difference.

And last, overall. given that the 3900x comes with a decent heatsink and is the same price, but more efficient than a 9900k and is a clear winner in everything but games, its clear the desktop choice for $500.

Oh, and I also think IEC was clear and correct on all his points above.

Now if I can just buy one for list.......

I just read the anandtech review and noticed that AMD was tested with windows 10 1903 and Intel was tested with 1709, is there a reason they didn’t take test both on 1903? Am I misreading the test setup page?

@Markfw BH Photo & Video has preorders for the 3900X. Supposedly more stock coming July 12th.

I suspect other retailers will get more over the course of this week and next week, so definitely don't pay over retail for one. Even Amazon, notoriously late on CPU launches, has some Ryzen 5 3600X in stock. Though that particular SKU doesn't seem to have stock issues.
