The improvement in the Dolphin benchmark (which probably indicates improvements in other JIT-based emulators/runtimes) is pretty impressive, especially compared to first-generation Ryzen. For a while that benchmark had every AMD processor performing worse than every Intel processor in a given review. If the Chromium compilation benchmark (which reportedly was screwed up and will be added later) shows similar improvements, I think this generation will finally convince me to replace my Ivy Bridge box. edit: I just saw the Phoronix benchmarks, which show LLVM compilation going from 547 seconds on 2700X to 406 seconds on 3700X. I'm not sure whether those were run with the same chipset/RAM/storage versus the 2700X result being an older one pulled out of the database, though.
