Lol Nice try and your calculus is 100% right for this benchmark under the assumption that only the zen ipc will increase (and new rumors say it could be higher)

7nm will allow higher frequencies too which should make the difference. If Intel still lead in single thread it would probably be negligible.
- The_rationalist 8y ago29% ipc gain under certain workloads !! https://old.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/9w16y1/amd_claims_zen_2_has_29_higher_ipc_than_zen_1_in/?utm_content=comments&utm_medium=hot&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=Amd https://old.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/9w16y1/amd_claims_zen_...
- bitL 8y agoYeah, but we know the AVX is going to be 256-bit, so if there is "higher IPC gain under certain workloads", that's completely expected. We might see a performance decrease under certain workloads as well due to the I/O chip. What's the point of picking a singular workload case and dance around it as if it were the case with any workload?
- The_rationalist 8y agoYes under certain workload doesn't mean a lot. But if it was AVX then the gain would be 100%
