So on that 6700K stream, are they just doing Software encoding at 1080P? Interesting but a good proof that More cores help gamers/streamers more than they might think depending on the codec used.

Most people streaming on a single PC use NVENC anyways, even though it's lower quality

Now that 95W is a single chip out of this gang. Do they have their own 140W sample to offer for those that want all the cores/power!? VEGA!

I would've been much more impressed if they had compared some numbers, showed benchmarks etc. Oh well, at least the chip looks like it can handle current gen games which is more than my last AMD CPU (FX-8150) could do.

Anime Schoolgirl posted:admittedly it's a map where amd cards poo poo the bed in but lol Yeah, that was some hardcore blueballing. Seems like they're not quite at the finishing line, and they really don't have the specific SKUs nailed down at this point, including boost clocks and pricing.

That looked pretty good all things considered. Especially if it's 5-600$ vs the equivalent -E series 1100$ pricetag.HalloKitty posted:Yeah, that was some hardcore blueballing. Or they just want Intel to jump the gun on any price drops/sudden new SKUs so they can adjust pre-launch.

What they should have said is this is the 2017 $1000 Dream PC for VR... But Instead it is the "Dream PC" for AMD execs everywhere. Still. 6900K performance mixed with 1080/TitanX performance for hopefully $1000 less than both those combined in a complete system... Might be a pretty good deal. However, we won't know today now will we?

So basically, AMD didn't blow it, but we'll see if they nailed it later. It just comes down to pricing and release date.

SwissArmyDruid posted:Blender and Handbrake tests seem relatively-free of shenanigans, even if anyone sane would be offloading to GPU instead. The Blender test is pretty convenient for AMD since its renderer doesn't have an Embree backend. If you did the same test with RenderMan, V-Ray or UE4 Lightmass I think you'd get a very different result

Right, back at a real computer and not trying to listen to the stream and shitpost at traffic lights at the same time. I sense AMD missed a real technical marketing trick here. Instead of Zen + Vega @ 4K on Ultra at capped framerates, they should have done that @ 5K instead, just for the extra ooh, ahh. Also Renee is the new Tom. Assuming Zen delivers on all its promises I would favorably prefer AMD over an Intel chip, if only because it would most certainly have better price-to-perf. I'm not saying how much I'd shell out for one, no sense in giving away that kind of info to any AMD or Intel marketers lurking, but I would make the investment for a top-flight chip. (The VM machine has been too long in the planning.) repiv posted:The Blender test is pretty convenient for AMD since its renderer doesn't have an Embree backend.

I earnestly believe AMD needs to match their quadcore SKU up against Skylake/Kabylake i3s to have a chance, as there is no way Bristol Ridge can fill those shoes.

Anyways, I think that there is one thing that we *can* concretely take away from today's marketing mess: Mobile parts based on Zen look to be very competitive.Gwaihir posted:Or they just want Intel to jump the gun on any price drops/sudden new SKUs so they can adjust pre-launch. That's a weak trick, and Chipzilla moves for no man. Like, we often think that Nvidia gets to demand whatever prices they want because they have a stranglehold on the market? But I don't think you quite appreciate Intel's position. We don't call them Chipzilla for nothing. repiv posted:i'm the am4 platfrom I see what you did there. Boiled Water posted:i'm the cpus with pins instead of land grids in tyool 2016 They don't. Anime Schoolgirl posted:i'm the pins that are so thin they're as durable as landing pins Semiconductor machinist here. More so. LGA pins are spring-loaded, and by definition, hollow at some point. Never mind how the ease of which it is to demolish an LGA socket is offset only by the total cost of replacement. SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 03:19 on Dec 14, 2016 |
