  First off, comments like yours contribute to absolutely nothing. Making whatever you say completely useless and more appropriate for deleting rather than individuals coming to conclusions based on what they read. At least they are posting on the topic at hand.
  
  Second, I read the article, and it was well done. My comments were directed at the very end of their conclusion and was basing my comments on a review that came out a few months after the original ryzen review. I got my articles mixed up, owned up to my mistake, and apologized.
  
  What are you doing? Trolling....? How about adding something creative to the conversation instead of posting utterly pointless and useless dribble? Grow the F up.

  Wolfe, nested comments only display to 5 deep. They were responding to cheshirster, not you.=)

  Don't be, they hammered Ryzen in gaming performance in their conclusion, even without benchmarks.That is clear evidence of shilling for Intel, following a narrative without any evidence.
  "Gaming Performance, particularly towards 240 Hz gaming, is being questioned,"
  "AMD has a strong workstation core "

  See here

  fullhd
  i5 7600 - 139fps
  1800X - 99fps

  Rocker League fulhd
  i5 7500 - 188fps
  1800X - 132fps
  
  And now they write
  "Our GTX1080 seems to be hit the hardest out of our four GPUs, as well as Civilization 6, the second Rise of the Tomb Raider test, and Rocket League on all GPUs. As a result, we only posted a minor selection of results, most of which show good parity at 4K"
  
  RoTR and GL, same games, same bad results, just different brands and now they are not going to publish them.

  It's important to note that the articles you quote are from the Ryzen 5 launch, which was over a month after the X370 platform. A lot of Ryzen's issues had been fixed in the weeks before.

  In your conclusion intel shill
  "Gaming Performance, particularly towards 240 Hz gaming, is being questioned,"
  "AMD has a strong workstation core "

  Uhh, not sure what you are remembering, but Anandtechs initial Ryzen review most certainly did NOT include gaming benchmark.
  
  I think it's slightly amusing how many people here in the comments immediately jumped down the reviewers throat over no gaming reviews and the reason given for that. And then they proceed to spin that into some kind of perceived bias against Ryzen, like the author has some AMD bashing agenda.
  
  You, and several others, are literally inventing "facts" to support accusations of bias and unequal treatment. Then to top it off, trying to say Anandtech reviewers are fan boys.
  
  But in reality, the entire basis of all these claims of bias, etc is completely fabricated. So much for all that huh? Almost seems like overly defensive, some might even say fan boy behavior. Irony is present. lol.

  Nope they just bashed Ryzen in gaming in the conclusion even without benchmarks.

  Wow AMD gets stomped here. No way I would buy an AMD CPU after seeing that.
