Locutus Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 This seems pretty promising, it'll be pretty crazy to see AMD back on top again after all these years (it's been what, 8? 10?) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fight Game Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 We can only hope! If this data is accurate, and then the 2.8 / 3.2 ghz can be pushed up over 4 or even 5 like their last generation, then I think it surely would be a true contender.

The Summit Ridge processor (8-core / 16-thread) for the demo was running at a clock frequency of 3GHz and the Intel processor was set to 3GHz as well to have a good clock for clock comparison. To the surprise of most in the audience the Zen processor completed the benchmark just a fraction of a second or so ahead of the Intel processor! This is pretty damn impressive, but we don 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
