Riso posted:My Athlon II x4 640 is still good enough to play all games I want at 1080p, thanks. Phenom II X2 and a Radeon 6850 I got cheap because my 9600 GT died. Just ran the Tomb Raider benchmark at normal settings with SSAO and got 79 fps min, 120 max. The first game that I was interested in and couldn't play was DA: Inquisition a month ago. Was this the last good CPU AMD made 5 years ago that y'all are referring to?

I don't feel like paying $250 if I'm not getting a notable performance boost (gaming). http://www.anandtech.com/show/7677/amd-kaveri-review-a8-7600-a10-7850k All the non-mobile AMD stuff is within 10..15% of each other, even if they're 2 generations or any model number apart.

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-core-i7-5775c-i5-5675c-broadwell,4169-6.html In case someone was considering an A10 for a media/light gaming box, Intel just airdropped the Broadwell i5-5675C into AMD's last remaining base because why not.

I vaguely remember the last stand of 32bit was the Athlon XP 3200+, on an Abit NF7-S mainboard if you were in the cool boys club.

Nintendo Kid posted:In reality though the tail end of the 32 bit era was dudes running Windows 2000/Windows XP 32 bit even though they'd just gotten the early generations of 64 bit chips. I ran 32bit until three weeks ago when I wanted to play Witcher 3 too badly. Making a 64bit boot USB stick on a 32bit OS is a tremendous pain in the neck, also saying goodbye to your trusty Windows 7 that ran flawlessly since launch day

They gonna be kicked out of the billionaire's club and drop out of the Fortune 500. Take Two Interactive is worth more than AMD now  The custom/embedded segment is officially larger than computing&graphics now, and they're burning mad cash with no end in sight. quote:Computing and Graphics segment revenue decreased 29 percent sequentially and 54 percent from Q2 2014. sauer kraut fucked around with this message at 06:01 on Jul 17, 2015 |

Apparently HSA+Libre is the tits if your hobby is visualizing gigantic spreadsheets or processing databases into pie charts. If it was your job you would probably be using very expensive software that includes a service hotline.

It will be interesting to see reviews on how their self-overclocking thing works on gaming with an average tower cooler, but the 1400X and 1600X look great on paper. Clocks could be a few 100 MHz higher, but for a first revision not too shabby.

Dante80 posted:Most of this is obviously AMDs fault, some of it is the Reviewers fault, overall this launch has a bit of a black eye but like any black eye it will get better with time. Yeah it's probably best to forget what happened and go back to sleep until reviews for the R5's are out, which are sure to include the R7 aswell. Launching your top of the line 16 thread CPU arch without having the required Windows drivers in place is pure :AMD: tho. FaustianQ posted:Makes sense, and if so than loving lol that SMT bug guts a Broadwell-E class processor to Ivy Bridge-E, holy poo poo. Wasn't the Phenom TLB bug just as bad? Is this a BIOS, driver or Microcode issue? Some guy made an effortpost on reddit about poorly coded games being super erratic with thread management, and when they switch caches between the two quadcore blocks it's real bad for Zen but Intel is much less affected due to their unified cache. Or something like that. https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/5x7oaq/ryzens_memory_latency_problem_a_discussion_of/ sauer kraut fucked around with this message at 11:48 on Mar 3, 2017 |

If Zen has such severe penalties for crossing clusters, maybe AMD should have set it up as a dual CPU instead of blabbing about infinity fabrics.

A 1400X Black Edition with guaranteed 4-0 layout and 4GHz boost at ~199$ could nab quite a few sales until the mainstream coffee hexas land in 2018. All they have to do is imitate Intel, disable the magic glue they worked so hard on, and make that low power process scream in pain

That setup is 'guaranteed' to run at 2400 assuming it's two dual-ranked modules, anything beyond that you'll have to find out as beta tester.

German https://www.computerbase.de/2017-04/amd-ryzen-5-test/ The 1500X, 1600 and 1600X rock. For 60/30$ more there is little reason not to go for the hexacore-X and skip overclocking headaches imho. 720p CPU composite games ranking:

No, a 1600X SKU with the top Wraith cooler (no LEDs though) is apparently planned. 1600X has the 20° temp offset, too while the 65W TDP ones do not.

GRINDCORE MEGGIDO posted:So whats the take from these overclocked with fast ram, vs a 6600k / 7600K at around 4.8Ghz with fast ram? I wouldn't bother overclocking R5's. 1600 is fine stock if money is short and you want to use the included cooler which is reportedly decent for 65W TDP. The 1600X is already maxed out stock if you let it use XFR. That AMD Windows high perf-balanced power profile sounds nifty btw, does it work with Intel CPUs?
