A good AMD CPU would be nice. The current lack of competition for Intel is very concerning.

Efficiency is even more than that, closer to 100%. 40% IPC is also one hell of a jump (the one they so desperately need), that's something we haven't seen in a very, very long time. That's more than Intel has had coming from Core 2 to Haswell
Carrizo is launching in the next 4-6 weeks (much faster GPU than i5's, which is to be expected, but also HEVC hardware acceleration \o/ - perfect HTPC material). What they achieved with that one is quite crazy too. Apparently they optimised the design to the point where they squeezed in 29% more transistors in the same area. Or to flip it around, they shrunk the die by 23% and still gained 5% IPC and lowered power consumption by 40%. All that without a node jump.
2016 should be a pretty interesting year.

Absolutely, I'm *really* looking forward to what 2016 brings us. I'm eyeballing an upgrade from my 2500k if I can get my head straight and build up my cab so it's ready for sale before I got to England later this year.. I'd love to see AMD put out a truly amazing processor again, maybe even entice me back to them for my upgrade... works out the same fucking thing anyhow, since I have to replace my mobo to upgrade to a better Intel proc. Even the 2600K's are still keeping €150/£150, it's nuts.

Ah I hadn't even noticed, those are the V2's, I just quickly Google'd them
The V3's are out now with 18 cores / 36 threads as of 2 days ago, guess they're not on Ark yet

I wonder what these will cost though. I hope they'll be at the same pricepoint as their FX series.

Cant wait. I wanted Zen to be my upgrade to my still good enough 3570K. And I've always said I wanted double the cores.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Its simple maths guys, if the ZEN top end model is as fast as 5960X, its not going to be cheap. I really hope AMD would succeed this time, would be about time. One can hope tho that AMD will cut intel prices by 50% atleast, so people could get nice hardware for price what they should be.

before the $ - € exchange fucked up the prices were really great from intel. xeon 1230v3 for less than 200 euros, the next model 1231v3 which is basicly the same but based on the refresh is still sold for solid 250 euros since a long long time. was below 200 euros too (two years ago), before the exchange rate was fucked. if you take that in account an actual i7 6700k would have been slighty above 250 euros in that time, and thats still great (not the 330 euros you have to pay actually)

Btw isnt that 8 core model only in the server boards, in other words will not go to AM4 socket. 4c/8t ZEN will be little slower than 4770K, based on these benchmarks.

What are you on about Breezer_?
We have no idea what they will or won't put Zen on yet. Zen's still 6 months out, 0 products announced.

It's cheaper than the interposer Intel uses.
