AMD's upcoming Ryzen 7 2700X processor appears on Geekbench

For reference, This is an 1800X running at 4GHz with 3400MHz memory.

That 1800x result also has much faster RAM along with more L1 and L2 and L3 cache

Just remember that cache sizes are often misreported on benchmarks with pre-release hardware.

If AMD can end up doing better work with slower DDR4 memory, Ryzen 2nd Gen will offer a great boost over Ryzen for gamers, especially when combined with higher core clock speeds.

With Ryzen 2nd Gen it's a very "wait and see" kinda deal, will it offer more than a standard Intel Generational upgrade. Will this be AMD's Kaby Lake? I'm certainly looking forward to finding out.
 
So this time, 1800X at 4GHz BUT with memory running at the same 2400MHz as the apparent 2700X, nice little performance jump, wonder how much more it will increase if the 2700X was equipped with 3000MHz or more memory.

I kinda wish I had waited 4 months to get mine now but as I was on an old A10 6800k I got a massive upgrade as it was.

Nice find Dice. I agree, it would be great to see the 2700X with faster memory.

Yeah, but there would always be that " If I wait for XXXXX" moment, same applies to video cards and pretty much everything else PC. Wait for Vega, wait for Navi etc, it never ends.

It is only worth waiting when the new release is imminent.
 
Don't waste your time. Geekbench proper bums Intel CPUs. If you want a true indication run something a little more neutral.
 
You're comparing a stock CPU to an OC 4.5ghz one for single threaded performance. Don't see how it's all that fair

What's fair got to with it?

I run my CPU at the speed it is capable of without any issues and take that as my performance baseline.

If the 2700X can overclock to a similar level and give equal or better performance then I'll take another look at it when the reviews come out.

Clock your CPU to 3.70GHz, Clock your memory down to 2400MHz then see what your score is ;)

Why?....this score will almost certainly be based on the 4.2Ghz(ish) boost speed that's been reported, not 3.7Ghz stock speed.

Why not compare like for like though ?

Clock your CPU to 3.70GHz and your memory to 2400MHz, Then you can see the differences.

:confused: I will never run my 4690K at 3.7Ghz so what is the point?

Unless the 2700X can overclock to a level that it will outperform my 4690K, its a completely irrelevant comparison.

Because then you can see the clock for clock improvements over Haswell, No one is saying you should go out and buy a 2700X, I'd personally just be curious.

..anyway like I said in a previous post, this 4700 score would be based on the boost speed of the 2700X, not its base clock.
