single core scores
2500k @ 4.2 GHZ=140cb
2500k @ 3.7 GHZ= 123cb
2500k @ 3.5 GHZ=117cb
6950x @ 3.5 GHZ= 148cb
6700k @ 3.5GHZ=151cb
???????????
waaaaaat....
i LOCKED my 2500k down to never go above 3.5ghz
then i repeated both tests.
and locked it to 3.7ghz
and 4.2ghz
i do NOT know if this screenshot of the 6950x was locked to 3.5 or not.
Talk about Generational Improvements .....
@Logan @wendell am i just missing the whole point again, is this a bad method to test single core improvement ?
Intel cpus have only increased 5-10% IPC per generation since sandy bridge, so that is about right for single thread.
I ran my [email protected] to compare like you asked the guy in the other thread. Only ~2% improvement over the haswell-e bench you posted.
hmmm....
so
in theory ,
moving from a 2500k sandy
up to a 6800k broadwell
gets you what?
50% more cores and 8 more threads?
little bit more cache
a few more pcie lanes
and quad channel ram
usb3.1 type c and a m.2 slot
dont seem too worth it to me
not at like $1300 usd +
I can only say that chips from intel don't mean anything unless you're doing a lot on one load.
A 12 core xeon system VS 6950X running a full load for 6 hours? The xeon will win. Logically Intel has just been making up random things to make the price higher. I am almost willing to blow 1800 bucks on a dual xeon system that is 3-4 years old just to make a 6950X system sit down and shut up.
Ohai AMD
annd that scored what now ?
Multicore 2000. Plus minus ~5.
annnd the single core?
Actually, no idea. Didn't really care about. Its not a gaming machine or something, so....
But for comparison: Pauls Hardwares 6950X @ 4.3GHz scored close to 2200.
16 cores sandy bridge @ 3.0GHz vs 10 cores Broadwell E @ 4.3GHz. Not a lot different at all.
the entire point of this thread is single core performance across generations of cpus
It still says a lot, when two Sandy Bridge Xeons can challenge the top of the line X-Series chip, for much less money.
very true
gaming is pretty important too me as well
so higher clocks are important to my case
but this thready is pretty much saying
Whats up with the supposed generational increase in single core performance ?
not much of a leap there....
how many generations do these chips have between em?
6950X is a Broadwell chip, so that should be the fifth generation of Intel Core i CPUs.
Kind of. It is also a 14nm chip like Skylake.... But architecture wise Broadwell of course, yes.
we went from liike 120cb up to 150cb in all this time
they cant/wont make their chips any better. there just throwing more cores at the issue it seems
side note,
anyone know how to get rid of this thing ?
or move it a foot off to the right ?
its sitting on top of my user interface and makes it a bitch to click on
