THREADRIPPER 2990WX REVIEWS ARE IN

AND IT'S A COMPLETE FUCKING DISASTER

>400W power draw under load
>slower than a two year old intel CPU with only 6 cores (8700K)

Why do AMD continue to fuck everything up? They backed out of the GPU market a few months ago due to literally not being able to compete with Nvidia, is this Threadripper launch basically AMD admitting that they can't compete with Intel?

There's a reason why Intel is very confident, they know AYYMD badly glued architecture is just crap in real world performance

Intel, the true leader in CPU performance and efficiency

Mate. 2/10, we all know that Civilization is not at all coded for utilizing 32 fucking cores...

I'm not sure TR is supposed to be a gaming chip. I bet it kicks ass in anything else. Also, Civ is more single thread.

This, AMD is fucking finished.

Cringe.

Give it 6 months to settle down, let developers work with it, and optimise it, and then benchmarks count.
Intel only have the upper hand because everything is almost build on their hardware and architecture, and already really godly optimised.

And who buys a 2990WX for gaming?
It's clearly marketed for "inovators and creatives".

Yes I'm sure intel is confident now HAHAHA

also twice as fast as the 2000$ intel cpu , for 200$ less

It's almost as if "moar coars" is useless unless those cores are as fast as low cores, low latency.

It is a HEDT-tier chip you brain-let. It is not for silly gayming and shit-posting.

It is just as retarded as getting a Skylake-X for gayming and shit-posting.

Threadripper 2 is bloody awesome for people who use their computers for real work.

You're not funny.

It's really niche. Most types of workloads won't benefit from 32 cores with only 4 memory channels.

h.264 doesn't scale beyond 12 threads.
You could run 5 renders simultaneously idiot on the 64 thread

SEETHING

Even Ashraf Eassa can see Intel will be fine in HEDT

STAY MAD, AYYMDPOORFAGS ASSLICKERS

You guys realize there's no such thing as a gaming CPU or gaming GPU right? People have been gaming on Xeons and Quadros for years, the only difference is workstation parts typically have lower clockspeeds due to stability and power efficiency being more important. Also Threadripper isn't even really a workstation CPU, that's Epyc. Although anyone surprised by the gaming benchmarks is retarded, it's been known since Ryzen 1 that all of AMDs CPUs pretty much perform the same in gaming above 4 cores.

I wish both Intel and AMD never released new CPUs again, just to put an end to dumb threads.

Intlet shills out in full force

Half of the cores have to hop for memory access. It's after all only a reject server part, a "workstation-but-not-really" afterthought.

Attached: xDDDD.png (1344x796, 54K)

So 32-core Threadripper is pointless? It's losing on productivity too. What a massive disappointment.

>best AI performance
You know it's bound by AI, right?

Holy shit, AMD is finished.

>Game engine doesn't utilize all cores

"Duuuuhhh why is AMD so bad"

The real kicker here is that us autists get to run photoshop, chrome with 52 tabs, OBS streaming and/or recording in the background with all those extra cores.

so we can relax and go back at praising Intel for maximum efficiency per dollar

OH NO NO
Threadripper? more like ThreadCrippled

Attached: sisoft2990wx.png (1247x705, 424K)

Kek why don't you make a diagram of CPUs per thread? Threadripper will be totally annihilated by pentium.

Threaderippers are workstation-tier CPU. Epyc are server/HPC-tier.

Epyc has RDIMM/RL-DIMM support which are worthless to workstations (They don't need that much memory and their workloads are harmed by slower memory).

Intel has cucked HEDT market for years by making ECC support exclusive their Xeon chips.

Threadripper's build-in ECC support is a welcomed game changer for the HEDT market. It forced Intel is released Xeon Ws (What Skylake-X i7-i9s should have been)

Is the issue memory bandwidth? From the benchmarks posted it seems as though quad channel memory isn't good enough for 32 cores.

Threadripper 1.0 with 16 cores was 200W TDP

Doubling the core count to 32 should at least be double TDP assuming clocks and voltage are equal.

FUCKING KEK

Memory bandwidth is a issue like Ryzen 7 chips and the odd topology wrecks havoc with thread scheduler for some software/OS.

****Looks at Windows 10*****

I'm more curious to see how forcing CPU thread affinities and playing around with memory topology affects performance for Threadripper 2.

This. I just bought five 8086k CPUs to stack on top of my Prime x299. Call me when AMD allows me to get 128GB of memory. I just can't switch to such an inferior system when playing demanding games like Quake and Elf Bowling.

It's still extremelly good value in some workloads, but not in all

Cascade Lake will pretty much wipe the floor off AYYMD HOUSEFIRES and their asslicking supporters

Can't wait to see the TEARS that will fuel Jow Forums for years to come

Is it safe to say, 2990WX was a massive disappointment?

>0.1 FPS difference
wow!

Fucking amazing. I love AMD.

>Shitposter responder doesn't realize that CPU core speed would be a lot better than higher RAM, thus meaning the ideal system for playing Elf Bowling would be on a 8086k.

only 52?
novice , thanks to my R5 1600 and 24gb of ram i can run so much garbage at the same time , forget about games in the background entirely and just relax

>Is it safe to say, 2990WX was a massive disappointment?
It is safe to say you are retarded

>24gb of ram
RAMlet.

Here's your reply.

youre a retard if you buy underperforming CPU. I'm still waiting for AMD to catch up. This is getting tiresome.

3x8 , was too lazy to get a fourth bc ram prices spiked horrendously (when i bought em they where 35$ a stick of 8gig of ddr4 , march 2017)

using twitter comments to soothe your pain.

>glued together
2 cents have been deposited in your Bank of Maharashtra account. Thank you for supporting Intel.

4/3 due versions are shit, 2 die versions are amazin

All these insane high core counts chips REALLY has me hoping for a slightly higher core count Ryzen CPU.
>AM4 socket 10c/20t Ryzen on 7nm

ALL PRAISE MOMMY SU.

that fucking graph KEK
intelfags sure are desperate

I bought r5 1606 and it performs well. Obviously I don't need 32 cores so I won't buy threadripper. Though I will consider some entry level 3rd gen threadripper for quad channel.

Funny how you don't see any Xeons on that list.

Which benchmark shows the new threadripper doing avx512 video encoding?
