It's a bit pricey, no?
I was thinking that, my son's 3600 was $175, this new six core is $299? It's 26% faster in games?

my take:
much better perf/watt than Intel
5950XT for $800 is as fast as Intel´s $500+ i9 10900K (gaming, finally)
5950XT for $800 is faster as Intel´s $500+ i9 10900K (cpu apps, no shit 10 vs 16 cores)
weak uplift of 631:544 = %16 in cpu heavy tasks (that´s mainly due the extra Mhz via boost Mode)
RX6000 is a meager 22% faster than a 2080Ti FE in Borderlands 3
5800XT is way overpriced for an 8 core at $450
+59% better performance in 3D apps. is lame as fuck, i guess she forgot that the 5950XT has an 8 extra threads
Disappointing RX6000 performance, if Borderlands 3 4K60 are to be believed. And still no 10core or 20core cpu ...

I think they compared it to Zen 2. The 2600 being Zen+, it should be much faster.

Seems like slower than RTX3080 ? Checked Techpowerup for 4k benchmark of Gears 5 and Borderland 3 with the allegedly slowest 3080 (Zotac Trinity)Price will be deciding factor I guess

Will we see new mobos for this CPU?
A comment made when looking at GPU 10fps faster than 2080Ti.The GPU they showed off is not quite as powerful as the 2080ti.
Well, between 2080Ti and 3080.
Price/power consumption need to be revealed to figure its competitiveness.
Oh and with a twit like RAM size, lol.
It hints at 3080 being last minute A102 fix, also explains weird 10GB size vs AMD's 16GB.
Not for that game, indeed.Still 10 FPS more on the 3080 with supposed 6GB less VRAM than big Navi just shows that just slapping on more VRAM is not the way to go either.
It was much better than I expected, I did not expect the $50 increase in the 5600X, a 20% increase is way too much tbh.
But I don't get people complaining about the rest of the prices, Intel did it before and everyone was like "it's the best, so they can charge more" and now AMD is doing the same *shocked* and everyone is crying![]()
This may not be relevant but did they mention zen 3 supporting:
PCIE Gen 5.0
USB 4.0 Standard
Wifi6e
DDR5 RAM
Latest Bluetooth version
?
None of these are integrated/supported. It's the same platform features as Zen 2.
Honestly, I re-checked the slides and figures you were commenting on twice.ho no....
:/
I guess from my understanding zen 4 will support this in late 2022, but intel seems to be ahead on this, and will support this in 2021.
Good thing Microcenter exist near me$450 hurts my soul.

Yup.Intel's 2021 desktop CPUs launch in early 2021 (March?) and only add pcie 4.0.
Hmm. I don't think that's going to happen but we'll see!I gotta go 5800x and 3080 unless Big Navi's price is under $699 with performance somewhere near the 3080.

Probably. Not sure about AM5 though, could be AM4+ as with AM3 and AM3+ which covered DDR2 and DDR3 RAM.I wonder if folks already on a 3700X or better should just wait for Socket AM5 and DDR5
Did they also mention the default supported memory speed? Is it 3600MHz?
i know you have zero expectation and everything amd do is magic for you but some of us want them to compete more directly with nvidia.Honestly, I re-checked the slides and figures you were commenting on twice.
Are you guys on crazy pills or green reality distortion field is real?
The nm figure is largely marketing at this point. The actual density appears to be very similar between AMD 7nm and Intel 10 nm, and Intel could even be slightly ahead. Also note that even with Intel's new 10 nm SF process, they're still not able to match the clocks of their 14nm node.I'll say it again, just imagine Intel on the 10nm process if they're keeping up with AMD on 7nm. AMD at 5nm will get destroyed as they are finally faster than intel at 14nm.
compete more directly
AMD is using superior process, but it's not as far ahead as naming imply (7 vs 14nm, yeah, 10xxx are 14nm).The actual density appears to be very similar between AMD 7nm and Intel 10 nm, and Intel could even be slightly ahead
Why do you expect others to treat you differently than you treat them ?And thanks for putting words into my mouth.
Depends on how good Rocket Lake is. AMD should be fine for non-gaming applications though, since the IPC improvement puts them at Tiger Lake levels and they will have more cores.Console gamer checking in. Are Intel execs sh!tting their pants right now or are they breathing a sigh of relief after today's presentation ?
