The AMD Ryzen 5 1600X vs Core i5 Review: Twelve Threads vs Four at $250

Our legacy tests represent benchmarks that were once at the height of their time. Some of these are industry standard synthetics, and we have data going back over 10 years. All of the data here has been rerun on Windows 10, and we plan to go back several generations of components to see how performance has evolved.

Ummmm Achaios, i don’t Anandtech is the right place, for all that sleazy fan war.ultima_trev - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
My 1800X gets 2,062 in Passmark single thread. Not that Passmark is the lone dictator of IPC.rarson - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
According to your data, Haswell IPC is equal to Kaby Lake IPC.Meteor2 - Wednesday, April 12, 2017 - link
Um, you need to divide by frequency to get IPC. Clue's in the name.Ammaross - Wednesday, April 12, 2017 - link
So, you're saying that your 4770K beat out a 7700K in single threaded. And now you argue "IPC" with this benchmark? Go home, you're drunk.zeeBomb - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
This is good. This is great...this is AWESOMEsor - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
This is pretty great. When Ryzen is behind, it is not often and not far. When it is ahead, it is far ahead.TadzioPazur - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
"Looking at the results, it’s hard to notice the effect that 12 threads has on multithreaded CPU tests."(..)it's hard NOT to notice(...)"?

Your Amazon link to Ryzen 5 isn't working.AndrewJacksonZA - Tuesday, April 11, 2017 - link
Page 5 - FCAT - Graph Heading/Text ErrorThe text says "For our test, we take a 90-second clip of the Rise of the Tomb Raider benchmark running on a GTX 980 Ti at 1440p"
but the graph heading says "System: FCAT Processing ROTR 1440p GTX1080 Data"
