Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't that where the vast majority of users are, at least those buying $500+ CPUs? I doubt anyone who buys a $5900X is going to have a 1080P monitor anymore. Also, is there any reason to believe that the 5600+ will age better with future 4K games than Intel's current top gen? Serious question

Bro some of the most expensive gaming displays you can purchase (360Hz) are 1080p.

What?

The most expensive are definitely the g-sync ultimate 4k 144hz displays, and below that are a bunch of other monitors before you get to 360 hz 1080p panels.

I get the enthusiasm around Zen 3 and I hope they sell a buttload so my AMD stocks go up a lot, but I was a little surprised that Intel easily kept the 1440p/4k gaming crown, though the margin is very small. It seems for most gamers Intel is still the best and unless you do content creation then 12+ cores is just a huge waste that won't help anyone. I had been planning on picking up a 5900X or maybe a 5950X but honestly without it really taking the top spot, I think i'd rather just keep the 8700K around a little longer until at least the Zen 3 XT release or 11th gen.

I wouldnt say they got the crown - it was alot of back and forth but it seemed like AMD won more than lost in the 1440p/4k while clearly winning in 1080p. If they keep having nice increases like this every couple years im quite eager to see the performance they manage on 5nm.

Sorry. Some of the most performance-hungry displays (360Hz) are 1080p. Happy? Jesus Christ, the point is that benching at 1080p is completely valid, not the price.

Also remember that these benchmarks are run on clean systems running nothing else in the background, not your home PC that has 8 browser tabs, a Youtube video/Twitch stream on your second monitor, Discord on your third monitor, and your keyboard's RGB software, your mouse software, and Steam in the system tray.

For the typical use case, it's quite possible that the AMD is going to pull significantly ahead.

Aren't AMD going to start wrecking Intel in the enterprise?
Maybe not wreck but a better buy outside niche applications. Problem has been;

1) AMD more recently has been supply constrained and is selling everything they can
2) dumbass sysadmins/CIOs and their "but ive always bought Intel!" mentality

Their Zen3 based enterprise chip Milan should wreck Intel.

I also think most enterprise SaaS products aren't certified to run on VMware on TR, and many aren't even certified on EPYC.

beating a 10th gen 14nm CPU
I have some bad news for you: Rocket Lake will be "10 nm design backported to the 14 nm process". Intel 10 nm does not seem to be ready, especially in volume. Intel dropped the ball here really hard.

So they're at what, 14 nm ++++++ now?

That's more than 10 so it's obviously better, I don't know what you guys are bitching about.

Are any of you fags smart enough to even know what a mozilla compile test is?

If no, just buy a 5800x lol

"Saving the worse for last"



Neg - and it actually wasnt the best at mozilla compile either going from other reviewers that showed those results - Seems the 5600x is the best gaming cpu since when it OC it just 1-2% below the 5800x but for considerably less.

Definitely seems as though it's the red-headed stepchild, but I'll stick with it since the stock for the 5600x is probably going to take more time than I want to finish my build. I'll eat the extra $
