AMD Ryzen 2000 chips
Anyone excited about the new launch of the new AMD Ryzen 2000 chips in 10 days time?
Im gonna upgrade my Piledriver 8370 to the new 2700x chip thats being released with new board and ram. Well basically im building a complete new tower lol. |
Re: Amd Ryzen 2000 chips
I don't follow new tech blindly so no, not excited.
As long as my desktop does what I need it to do... What are you doing that needs the upgrade to the 2700x cpu? Very little I would guess. I can't see you ever having pushed your piledriver to it's full extent. I doubt you'd even know how to. |
Re: Amd Ryzen 2000 chips
Quite excited. But can't decide if I get this one or wait for zen2

Re: Amd Ryzen 2000 chips
Pip i like gaming, video encoding and picture editing so the 2700+ will be a great upgrade from my current PC.

I do 2/3rds of what you do with a phenom II. I'm not a gamer.

Re: Amd Ryzen 2000 chips
Games these days have a major affect on hardware. I have a 1080ti which is being bottle necked by the cpu and hopefully the Ryzen will solve the issue.

Re: Amd Ryzen 2000 chips
I am looking to build a new machine in the next couple of months and the new Ryzens look good to me. I mainly do video encoding and streaming through Plex so the multicore performance looks ideal.
Some of the reports I have read suggest that a lot of gaming will not be significantly improved due to the single core speeds being lower than Intel but that's fine with me |
Re: AMD Ryzen 2000 chips
The single core performance is not that much lower than Intels and if u look at the money you are saving compared to buying the intel chip its way worth it.
The new tower for gaming im looking at building will cost me around £1700 but its gonna last me atleast 5 years. |
Re: AMD Ryzen 2000 chips
The Intel landscape is also improving, with some cheaper chipsets for the non-K models that don't need the full features of the Z series
|
Re: AMD Ryzen 2000 chips
They are still quite a bit more expensive than AMD tho.

Re: AMD Ryzen 2000 chips
