On the competition front: Steam Hardware & Software Survey: June 2017
Steam conducts a monthly survey to collect data about what kinds of computer hardware and software our customers are using. Participation in the survey is optional, and anonymous. The information gathered is incredibly helpful to us as we make decisions about what kinds of technology investments to make and products to offer... Nvidia GPUs win -- with GTX1060 being most popular DX12 GPU. Intel CPUs win -- with 4 core being most popular. 95% of gaming CPUs run less than 3,7 GHz. Because Survey participation is optional, not all Steam users systems are represented. So, the fine details of the survey may be in error (vs reality). However, the larger conclusions are probably valid and are used by game developers to help decide what hardware to support. Steam Full Survey Results

As we know, the cost effective GPUs (in particular AMD GPUs) are now overpriced due to: Good luck building a VR PC: Ethereum miners are buying all the GPUs
Once the tap turns on again, GPUs will restore PCs and edge computing to glory
..As Ethereum ballooned to its highest historical value (nearly USD $400 for a single ETH), it became a wise investment to buy a cheap PC with a beefy power supply, stock it up with GPUs [for Ethereum mining]... But, the cost-effective-GPU shortage due to mining is temporary. The future is about cost effective GPUs for "other than gaming". ..Moving away from the general-purpose CPU .. the GPU [is becoming] more important than the CPU. The GPU is central to all the roles we expect 21st century computers to fill. This may be the reason Apple recently ditched chip designer Imagination in favor of their own, home-grown GPU. Within a few years, every computing device of consequence - supercomputer, desktop or smartphone - will be driven by architectures and operating systems that center around the GPU... AMD has been working on a way to make GPUs of seemingly unlimited power (Nvidia is on the same path). The key is making many small GPU chips act like a single super large GPU chip (not CrossFireX or SLI chips). AMD's Navi GPU is rumored to be such a multi-chip GPU -- rumored/speculated for 2019.

For high core count CPUs, what matters is performance in high thread count applications. AMD Threadripper seems like it will be competitive. AMD Threadripper Lineup Gets Preliminary Pricing and Performance Numbers – Offers 40% More Performance Per Dollar Than Intel Core-X In Cinebench R15
As expected, Intel does have an edge in terms of performance per core figures – but in Cinebench R15, the difference isn’t enough to justify the Intel premium..
The Threadripper and Whitehaven X399 platform .. will continue to upset the x86 paradigm .. Whether or not Threadripper is able to beat Intel offerings core-for-core or clock-for-clock is irrelevant – they will knock out the competition where it actually matters: Perf-Per-$...

That's a lot of contradiction in a single paragraph. Performance per $ is only relevant if value for money is the primary driver. Your own sentence before the quote refers to performance in high thread count applications and then the quote starts with 'Intel does have an edge in terms of performance per core figures' yet in bold your quote pulls out one example (probably out of 100's) where the AMD chip has 'won' in one of the benchmarks/tests. I'll admit it, I come to this thread almost daily just to see what weighted information is added, often for humour but at the same time you could probably just have a single post in this entire thread that links to whatever source you pull most of this nonsense from. I know you love AMD and have reasons for disliking the Intel/Nvidia rolling roadblock but I think you'd get more appreciation by linking articles which aren't so clearly biased. It's not a dig, you're a nice guy but I do think your enthusiasm for AMD can have an effect on credibility too. If you want to talk about price/performance then include price/performance links and not some thinly veiled extract that tries to blur the real content of the quoted article.

Most everything in this thread are quotes of speculative, rumor, leak, unproven nature. Rather than selectively quote to mislead, I try to include sentences that indicate doubt. E.g. in the post above As expected, Intel does have an edge in terms of performance per core figures.. For what its worth, I only link articles that I think add information worth looking at -- as I don't want to waste folks time. Most articles have little or nothing new to say beyond what I excerpt -- even those that have hundreds of extra words (I suppose authors are paid to fill so many lines of text). By "new to say", I mean some shred of information that has not already been identified in a previous Reply in this thread. Meantime, a few percent more per core performance in an Intel product will often have no visible impact in the game or job (measurable but not visible or noticeable in a practical sense). So, if a competitive AMD CPU is significantly cheaper, one can spend the left over money by adding a better other component to the build that may have a "visible" impact (e.g. a faster GPU, a faster NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD). As AMD releases more Ryzen, Zen, and Threadripper CPUs, AMD is becoming head-to-head "competitive" with Intel in CPUs. That means a "thoughtful" purchaser will consider their needs and budget and what both Intel and AMD are offering before purchasing a CPU. However, Intel fans will defend and buy Intel -- just as AMD fans will buy AMD

Radeon 500 GPU shortage continues
The GPU shortage currently mainly affects the Radeon 500 series and especially the 580 and 570 cards. These are the best for mining Ethereum right now with Geforce GTX 1060 as a good alternative..
If you are a gamer and you wanted to buy a card for gaming, this is a bad time to buy as prices [of cost effective cards] are at an all time high. There are some indications that the supply situation might improve before the end of the summer in the western hemisphere and get to a normal level before September. We'll see what impact this has on RX Vega GPU (coming this month ??).

No sooner do I make the above post: Used mining graphics cards flood the market
..With the recent difficulty spike in mining Ethereum and its price dropping below US $200, currently standing at US $190, plenty of users have given up on mining and are currently trying to cut their losses by selling those graphics cards on the market.
Some of the well-known used markets, like the eBay, have been flooded with plenty of Radeon RX series graphics cards..
..This will also bring a big problem for both AMD and Nvidia, as those looking for an upgrade will have a chance to pick out a decent mid-range graphics card on the used market... Also it has been noted -- regarding a CPU scam: ..But it appears scam artists are taking advantages of Amazon's RMA and EBAY
Scam Users by buying Ryzen Chips from Amazon, and asking for a refund and returning the Ryzen Package w/ an Old Chip in the box. Amazon re-stocks them w/o checking. Another Users orders Ryzen and gets an Old Intel Celeron or FX Chip.
Same on Ebay, Putting an older Intel Celeron or FX Chip in a Ryzen box and selling on Ebay,.. Of course, the chip that may replace a Ryzen CPU in the scam does not fit an AMD Ryzen motherboard. Above mentioned sales of used RX400 and RX500 hopeful for keeping new RX Vega pricing in line -- versus Ethereum marked up RX Vega cards.

AMD Radeon RX Vega Compared Against a GeForce GTX 1080 in Budapest – Almost Similar Performance in Battlefield 1, Launches in 2 Weeks
Budapest, Hungary July 18 at the Akvárium Klub from 2 to 7 CET. Portland, USA, PDXLAN in, July 21 to 23 Los Angeles, USA, SIGGRAPH 2017, July 30 An article that merely says reporters were allowed to play games with both an AMD machine and an Nvidia machine. However, they did not know which was which -- all identifications were removed or hidden. The reporters could not tell the difference between the two machines (RX Vega and Nvidia GTX1080) -- no more info than that about performance. AMD representatives hinted that the RX Vega was cheaper than the GTX1080 -- but, nothing solid.

On the competition front an Intel rumor: Intel’s 12-core i9-7920X features 2.9 GHz base clock
This means that Intel’s 12-core i9-7920X base frequency will be lower than AMD’s 12-core Threadripper 1920X by 600 MHz. .. Base on recent Intel products, I expect Intel to show "Turbo Clocks" above 4GHz (nominally limited to a couple cores) and have overclocking unlocked. However, the 12 core chips are said to be "server chips" repackaged -- rather than a new design high core count chip for desktops. Moreover, Intel has officially recommended against overclocking their newer products (even though unlocked). So, it remains to be seen what the practical overclocks will be in actual use. Competition is good. We all get more choices and lower prices. AMD Ryzen Threadripper could be bundled with AiO cooler
According to information coming from Japan, AMD's upcoming Ryzen Threadripper CPUs could be bundled with an AiO liquid cooler..
..Buying [one of the first] Threadripper with an [bundled] AiO liquid cooler might be the only way to cool it down as these 16-core and 12-core beasts will probably have 180W TDP. The second reason is that [initially] it will be quite hard to find a cooler that will support the upcoming TR4 socket ...

AMD Radeon RX Vega Compared Against a GeForce GTX 1080 in Budapest – Almost Similar Performance in Battlefield 1, Launches in 2 Weeks What's the definition of 'almost similar' then? Similar in this context I assume means 'quite close but not equal' otherwise it would be worded much stronger than this.....so including 'almost' undoubtedly means much less than similar!

The above was a cut and paste quote (in the quote box). You are correct. Its a mealy mouth statement. Basically, the author of the quote said he, himself, saw no difference when he played both. However, one of the other "reporters" reported that one of the systems had a brief hiccup -- he did not know which had the hiccup -- because the systems were disguised. Could have been AMD Vega. Could have been Nvidia 1080. ..There was a little hiccup, but they resolved it in an instant and from my experience and many others the difference was unnoticeable. Mind you we were not told and are not going to be told which setup is which... Since RX Vega is the new product and 1080 is established, one might conclude that AMD "probably" had the hiccup. But, who really knows?? All in all, little was added by the article. But, it is the first time reporters actually played with RX Vega -- even if they did not know which system it was. The implication was that RX Vega was "competitive" with GTX1080 (not enough better or worse to see the difference). For one who would wish to check it out, here is the article. RX Vega vs GTX1080

Ain't Free Enterprise and competition nice. No sooner than one reporter speculates that there will be no cooling for AMD Threadripper CPU's TR4 socket (and I post the quote reprinted above) then: ARCTIC announces Liquid Freezer compatibility with Ryzen Threadripper
..Three solutions equipped with two, four and six fans are currently the only officially confirmed coolers for Threadripper. The cooling efficiency of Liquid Freezer 120 of 250W is probably more than enough for the new socket. The Freezer 240 and 360 are both ready for 300W TDP, which should also leave some headroom for overclocking.
ARCTIC’s coolers are currently available for the price starting from 86 EUR. That makes it roughly 10% of the price of the processor...

Rumor, leak (not official): AMD Ryzen Threadripper launches on August 10th
..it is said that Threadripper will launch on August 10 on 22:00 o’clock Japanese time (14:00 London time, 6:00 LA time, [9:00am NY time] )...
16core/32thread, 12core/24thread. Based their specified clocks and on my Ryzen performance, I am guessing that they can easily overclock to 4.0GHz on all cores all the time (little or no voltage boost) with water cooling (but, I could easily have guessed wrong). ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI and ASRock to detail X399 motherboards on July 25th

One article that summarizes the current GPU price situation due to Cryptocurrency mining. Best graphics card deals today
..If you're having trouble finding the higher end AMD RX cards for good prices right now, you're not the only one! We'll make sure to let you know when they're back in stock. Vega is coming soon though, and you might be better off waiting.... In summary: NONE are a genuinely good deal (except the very cheapest low powered GPUs). Better to wait for prices to fall.
