Ryzen 5

Post by Citizen229 »

Woohoo! It is finally here!

Watched some yuoutube vids on the bench marking last night. As expected these chips are not anything groundbreaking. They compete with top end i5 and low end i7. So AMD is still going to hold onto its perf/$ market scheme. One video was of interest to me. It noted that since the R5's are binned R7's their number crunching speed will be something that will catch eyes. With the full16m lvl3 cache and 2 less cores, there actually is a cache overclock feature being put on the mobos. So these little guys will be above the target group in data crunching application. For the casual compiler,encoder, etc these should be an excellent pricepoint for a 6/12 chip. This may very well be my fx-4350 replacement.

We still have yet to see:
vega gpu- I would have to look up launch date I think Q1 2018
Bulldozer APU revamp in an AM4 socket- Q3/4 timeframe
AM4 APU- 2018 as far as I know
