AMD has consistently offered better value for software development over time, though this was mainly due to weaker game performance. Now they deliver top performance at a more competitive price. I’m curious about the Linux kernel version they’re using. The article linked looks promising—I’m excited about the upcoming 1700 tests, especially since that CPU model really appeals to me.

I seem to be being too detailed about AMD, but I’d like to highlight something from the Linux build test. The Core i7 5960X runs at 3.0GHz max and can reach up to 3.5GHz, while Ryzen starts at 3.6GHz and climbs to 4.0GHz (maybe higher). Since Ryzen is said to match Haswell’s IPC, it makes sense that it outperforms the i7-5960X. This is what I examined, but it’s useful to keep that in mind when interpreting the results.

On open benchmark, top results come from higher core counts in Xeon chips rather than high-frequency CPUs. That’s why Ryzen is outperforming i7.

The Xeon E3-1245 v5 is a 4C/8T configuration. The i7-5960X represents an 8C/16T design. It also runs at a higher clock speed.

The main concern is how much the Ryzen 7 processors can be pushed to higher speeds. Most of the 5960X models tend to reach between 4.3 and 4.5GHz. I’m hoping the 1800X will achieve similar results, though I’m still waiting to see it.

For testing and evaluation, overclocking shouldn't be included. If it is considered, it must match the standard configurations.

They show the older chart with compile times, and the Xeon ranks highest but is expensive. I'm hoping the 1700 release comes out soon, around the same cost as the i7-7700K. I'm also checking if the 1700 actually has a 65W TDP, since that would make it a good deal with its cooler designed for 95W CPUs.
