So in single threading Modus according to cinebench and flops (imho opinion mich more important than int as the floats are the huge slowdowns in algorithms) the new Ryzen ist 15% slower than the i7-8700k for roughly 100 USD higher price.
Up to 6 cores, 99% of the software doesn‘t use more except the few benchmarks specifically turning on all cores to their max, Intel is 15% faster for 100 USD less.
Only for the 7th and 8 Core you get slight improvements up to 5-6% for a 25% higher price.
Just pointing out a few facts from the pictures most Intel Bashers seem to ignore.
Note, most games eben the multi cores on it‘s the main single thread performance that‘s the bottleneck. Civilization 6, Supreme Ruler and many more it‘s really the first core that‘s Most important, the main thread! One can now argue: but having 2 more threads I can spread math out over even more cores. Yeah, sure, true, for video coding and rendering I can split up either screen or timeframes. Not however in most normal user scenarios.
Even Profi Software like premiere or photoshop you really gotta focus on the flops of the first 4 cores.
I‘m sure in 5 years we‘ll see a change in software development, thus far they not even started and civ just moved to split main game thread from GUI.
So, you gain 5% performance for a 25% higher price only applied if the software using the additional 2 cores.
Not really impressed I must say and I rather wait for the i7-9700k which with 8 cores and a price under 400 usd and another 20% single threading performance to kill off AMD finally and for good, as damn sad as that is because I set all my hopes on AMD competition to kick Intel.
But these analyses, they won‘t even tickle Intel for 99% of the user and game appliances and most better wait till Q3 2018 to buy the 9700k.
I may actually build my first AMD system later this year, if this is true..
If you wait for later this year wait for the i7-9700k which will be in the same price range, 8 cores and a 25% higher single threading performance.
How is that even possible? The 8700K is the cream of the crop, the best money can buy! How the heck are people like you having those kinds of issues?
Wrong motherboard, wrong DDR, combination of both not working well, wrong Bios settings, etc.
Some people think just making cables to fit and start the computer and if it runs through windows/Linux Installation you done everything right.
The real pc builders of course for them it starts with not just buying some ddr because it has the highest numbers or ratings or came through compatibility but select and buy their DDR specifically selected for that specific motherboard and that specific cpu.
Latter ones are the ones without issues.
It's got flaws. Surprised you haven't spotted it yet
