Not to rip on WCtech or whatever, but: "Amazingly, this CPU is only rated at 155W, 5 watts less than Intel’s upcoming Core i9-7920X 12 core flagship Skylake X CPU."

Whole 5 watts, surely this is a marvel of power efficiency.

1.) Zen is just shorthand for Ryzen, right? Everything currently out is Zen1, and what was announced for July 7 is Zen2?


Disclaimer: i might be wrong.
Zen is the architecture like Skylake, Coffee Lake, etc on Intel side,
Ryzen is the model family like Athlon/Celeron/Pentium.

Zen1 was 1000-series, Zen+ is 2000-series and upcoming Zen2 is 3000-series Ryzen processors.

(Also featuring Threadripper and EPYC processors belonging in their respective Zen generations)

What are the drawbacks to turning off Geardown mode? My ram is XMP 3600 CL15 and I had to turn geardown off to have an odd number cas latency. It booted just fine with it off, and I've yet to notice any instability.

Keeping it on might give you more stable memory with even CL. I know my ram kit will bsod as 3600cl16 without it.

On Asus bios after upgrade to ABBA, the auto/default mode of Geardown Mode started to mean Disabled.

This caused "some" instability.

Maybe AMD is looking at FPGAs as a way to implement a drop-in hardware replacement for their graphics drivers. :thunk:

XMP profiles are often specced with Intel memory controllers in mind so having them work straight out of box on AMD is pretty rare on higher speed memory kits. Ymmv.
