As someone about to build their Ryzen rig this weekend, I am pleased to see progress being made. Hoping the ram speed improvements comes along with the may update.

I will bet the elimination of the dependence on HPET will help quite a bit. After prolonged experimentation of my own with an FX-8320e clocked to 3.6/4GHz, I've concluded that I get better performance in Win 10x64 build 15063 with the HPET disabled in Win10. I'd think anyone really into gaming isn't going to be enamored all that much with 1080P anyway--buying Ryzen and putting the savings into a better GPU & Monitor would seem the way to go, imo.

Hilbert, could you do a review next year to see the improvements Rizen got in 1 year?

I am currently working on an article with showing the benefits of memory timings, tweaking and overclocking. To show you how to get the best perf and experience on a Ryzen platform. I already started, but would really like to wait on the micro-code firmware update. BTW if you guys value adore tv, then really you should not even be visiting Guru3D.com.

Hilbert what do you think about AdoredTVs finding about Ryzen's gaming performance. He tested Tomb Raider in both DX11 and 12 and found that when the NV card was changed for RX480s the sometimes ~30% lead of the 7700K melted to 6.5% REMOVED CHARTS ...and OFC everyone tested Ryzen with NV cards as AMD at the moment cannot put anything high end to the line.
The problem manifests on CPU bound Tasks.. If you lower the GPU it Starts being GPU bound and the diference get reduced... That's why you don't see big diferences on 1440p+ as its all GPU bound

His Nvidia numbers are fake.
If that. AdoRed Leader 😀 is copypasta anyway

Nice to see there's room for improvement on memory latency. Hopefully they'll get most of it ironed out before the next set of CPUs launches.

Wow that's some impressive charts right there. My next rig will have AMD CPU, it's crystal clear. I personally don't care about RAM overclocking, timing etc... I want ultra stability of my system most and foremost, and RAM looks like a nightmare not worth any effort on the oc side.

I suppose this would be a good place to throw in this video: removed please do not link to that channel. TL;DW - He believes nVidia's drivers have poor multi-threading leading to the poor Ryzen game results as the AMD cards perform much better.

@XenthorX as long as it has xmp/amp profile i dont mind oc the ram. does provide a big difference, as 2133 on 3770k (stock) produces ~32GB/s transfer rate. and it does help if you plan on ocing the cpu. around 3-3200 seems to be the best number. at least this way i dont have to worry about missing quad channel...

Sorry, I only read your article I hadn't gone through the thread to see he was mentioned. I just thought it was interesting to mention, since it was on this topic, if there was any truth to it. I didn't know there was any problem.

Exactly, i'm on quad channel 2400Mhz, toggled xmp profile on and never came back to it.

AMD has plenty to bring to the line on the high end. Those "reviewers" just dont want you to see how good it is. This is the power of the Fury + Ryzen 1700 youtube.com/watch?v=994SEygRnkY

Awesome Boss :thumbup: , looking forward to this article as it will help many users truly understand how they can squeezed more performance out of their Ryzen set ups. There is a lot of untapped performance to be had on Ryzen CPUs for gaming and it will get much better.

About to build a Ryzen rig to replace a Core 2 Duo at my mom's. Already got all the parts picked out...just waiting for stock. There's bios updates almost weekly for the board I'm looking at.
From Core 2 Duo? I don't think you'll see much difference, to be honest. It's going to be like a sidegrade.

He got a point though Hilbert I mean, look at this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBf2lvfKkxA I can't say the numbers are or not real but wtf: not a single professional reviewer actually used an AMD GPU for testing the Ryzen platform. Wasn't Nvidia notorious for being bad with DX12 and AMD bad with DX11? Wasn't DX12 and Vulcan supposed to help improve the red team results? What the heck: throw crossfire RX480s if you are worried with GPU bottlenecks but do test the red team!

now you can use 3800mhz ram on this board= ryzen itself alon can support 6000mhz ram(50ftl graphic=4*1080) !!!!but for hard latency and high price ram above 3000mhz amd ask board creators to be under 3000 mhz
What a load of crap. Unless you have proof ...
