Fair point, but breaking even wouldn't prompt people who already own a 6700k+ to run out and upgrade their rig right now though unless they really want zen.

A huge win for people looking to buy right now though.


you don't go buy a 2017 camaro just because your 2016 camaro is older since the new one came out

if there's no giant feature one cpu offers over another that performs ~about the same~ you'd be dumb to buy it to begin with
getting an 8c/16t cpu for the same price as a 4c/8t intel cpu is a lot to prompt that purchase though

ryzen wasn't meant to be sold to people who are already happy with their stuff, like most other products

If we take their claim that they gained 52% IPC from bulldozer at face value, you could extrapolate 52% more IPC from something like the 8350.

the 7700k at 4.5ghz has about 62% better single core performance than the 8350 @ 4.2 ghz.

so probably close to but still less than the 7700K which makes me sad because I have no reason to take advantage of the 6 or 8 core for pure productivity reasons.
