Claps very slowly, guess you havent been reading the posts have you? and there is more to computer performance then just gaming.

Also you should look in my specs and you might learn something

The thing is they only needed the IPC. Bulldozer was/is good at multithreaded loads. If it'd had the same IPC as Intel at the time they would have ruled everything and everyone.

That is very true and would of been great but it would of used to much power and be hot as hell.

Well, that is the name of the game: get good IPC while keeping TDP in check. Otherwise we get the Pentium4 again

Do you think they will announce VEGA graphics card in the same event as well?

It will be a while till we see Vega. There's a reason why AMD announced an updated Polaris out of the blue

I didn't like graph. I like actual gameplay video from youtube. Vishera ipc is horrible. many youtube vid confirm that dual cores i3-6100 can match or beat "8 cores" 8350 in gaming. And so many software still favor singlethread performance due to cost / more easy.
AMD is in right step about Zen. The concept of all in for multithread and sacrificing singlethread is a joke.
About your rig I don't care. I went from 2600k @ 5ghz to 6500 @ 4.8ghz (currently try 5ghz again with new motherboard) I must say that even Sandy Bridge ipc is too slow for gaming nowaday. I see major improvement (30-40% combine with ddr4-3600+) in very cpu intensive game like totalwar attila and cities skylines 81 tiles mod and gta v with extended distance scaling at max.

Really? well Guru3D is a very respectable tech site and I would believe them over any website when it comes to CPU benchmarks. Like I said before its not all about the IPC, when software is coded correctly and can use all recourses that a multi threaded PC can give those 8-12core CPU's can really fly! I have put my 8350 against my old i7 940 and the 8350 destroyed it in encoding/transcoding all day long, but when put against my 12threaded i7 970 they become very close, once again it all comes down to the software, the 8350 can pull ahead sometimes, and other times the 970 can, but overall there pretty close to each other in big multi threaded apps.

Since you only seem to be focusing on games (which is only a 10% market by the way) and you like to refer to youtube videos I have one here for you that is a modern title, but a game that has been coded correctly to use multi threaded CPU's well. Tell me what you think about the so called "slow" 8350 now?

Not bad for an old out of date tech!

Also this video is showing OpenGL not Vulkan, I know for a fact once Vulkan is enabled my FPS in doom on my 8350 went up 30fps in which im getting better FPS then this guy in this youtube video on a GTX 970

FYI I have cities Skyline and its way more dependent on GPU then it is CPU and I have mods on as well, but nice try

Pretty cool vid. Although I had to find it on youtube for some reason it didn't work for me in your post. I'm really exited about the new zen. Honestly if it shows up good(and it probably will be awesome) I will switch to AMD(man it's been so long). I'd love to go with AMD again

I hope zen crushes Intel's kaby. Not that I don't like intel or favor AMD it's just Intel needs to learn the lesson from crap IPC boosts with new gen CPU. Intel's way to confident and that would be (hopefully) its downfall. At least for the time being

Which manufacturers sell AMD Zen motherboards?

IMO current AMD motherboards are ugly ugly xDDD

Well for me it has to be functional not pretty but that's just me

Why not both? It is obvious that I prefer a good performance, but, for example, motherboards like Asus z170-A seems good, pretty and "cheap".

For me appearance comes as a bonus which is not necessary but yeah. If it looks nice it's ok.
