Just makes sense to wait. Either ryzen is a flop and nothing changes or ryzen is competitive which results in a viable second choice and/or cheaper Intel products.

I can at least attest to the seriousness of the source. CPC is well known in the nerd circles over here, and were also responsible for some early benchmarks with Ryzen ES.

AMD stock up big again today based on Jim Cramer hype. Will be super hilarious if Zen is a flop at this point.

Rumor has it new Intel i5s might now have hyperthreading turned on.

Original: Intel prépare la riposte à Ryzen en coulisse • CPC Hardware
Translate: Google Translate

Well, disappointment came quickly.

Original : Core i7 7740K et i5 7640K : Kaby Lake-X sur LGA2066 • CPC Hardware
Translate : I don't know how to link Google Translate for websites. u_u

I7 7740k and i5 7640k are in fact Kaby Lake X cpus on socket lga2066 (x299 chipset). No HT and disappointing clocks on the i5 too.

Ryzen 8-core prices leaked.

Well here we are, it 's back to talk about AMD Ryzen , but this time with an exclusive underarm, the price of the 8 - core CPUs . This price is for the European market, includes relevant taxes and is the price at which these CPUs will find next February 28 . This price may vary a few euros on the profit margins of each store, so these are almost exact prices at which we will find.

AMD Ryzen R7 1800X - 599.99 euros

AMD Ryzen R7 1700X - 469.99 euros

AMD Ryzen R7 1700 - 389.95 euros

Not bad for a true 8 core. Still waiting for the NDA to drop, then well know the real truth whether garbage or decent.

Not sure, but i would venture like 8-24 hrs before the chips drop retail which are due in early March last time I heard.

I feel like if they had a really good chip on their hands we'd be whispers by now.

It could be the other way around too, if they were duds, wed be heraing about it too.

I have a feeling its all hyped up AMD type shit like they always do. Like they did with their Bulldozers, Pyledrivers or their latest the RX480 which was supposed to be like a 1070 but for $150 cheaper. Well we saw how all those turned out. The 480 is still decent for the price, but nowhere near the 1070 type performance.

Sounds like more of a refresh for low-power mobile parts than a real 8th generation.
