I have no time to go through the web, but I don't see any new leak from that poster in our forums, so I guess this story just coming to an end.![]()
NEWS: So many guys and media said that poster was using E5 2660 to bench and told us it's 'Zen'. This story should put it to an end now.
OK, thxWhat you need to know is the contest ends in in January 18th and apparently they will be giving away a Ryzen CPU as one of the prizes. So at least one SKU should be out in a month or so.
Interesting. It was the slowest for Lynnfield and slower than the "SIMD" build for Vishera (although dramatically faster than the standard builds). I'm going to do another round of Vishera testing at a Prime-stable clock to be certain of the results.So, for Sandy Bridge AVX2 is the fastest.
Again, for Skylake AVX2 build is the fastest.
Planet3DNow! also has a nice collection: http://www.planet3dnow.de/cms/27965-amd-ryzen-blender-benchmark-im-vergleich/Rather interesting... i went through the submissions on the Ryzen 150 thread and converted them as well.
i only found one submission with a higher value... a Skylake 6700K sample. Its too bad that how good AMD's SMT implementation is not known... but typically (R15 score / 1.25 / # cores) gets in the ball park (with the newer Intel chips).

wow thats great news, are you participating on that contest?
Thanks for the updated list. Please add the following data points, thanks : )
8370E @4.4 non-turbo
150 samples: 1:53.9
8370E @4.4 non-turbo, 4M/4T (CMT off)
150 samples: 3:32.4

That results list also shows the problem with the Blender test (i.e. why The Stilt's builds offer so much better performance with Piledriver). Ancient AMD processors like Athlon X2 7550 should not outperform Piledriver.
I think everyone should use The Stilt's two builds so we can build a picture of performance, regardless of the Ryzen CPU. Maybe then AMD will offer us a data points with those two builds to "clarify the situation". Right now, it looks to me like Blender 2.78a is not giving an accurate picture at all of construction core performance characteristics.
Until the vast performance gap on Piledriver between The Stilt's builds and 2.78a is explained in a manner that shows the actual validity of stock Blender as an effective tool for measuring Piledriver's ability, comparisons between construction core IPC and Zen IPC based on this test seem worthless.
Your appraisal doesn't fit the data unless The Stilt's builds are somehow broken.Actually, IMHO... Blender is giving an accurate picture. BD/Piledriver just happens to be absolutely horrible (per second per core per Ghz) in it (2.78a) and we need to admit this instead of denying it and blaming the software (i mean Intel runs it perfectly well (and so does K10) so BD arch should do it reasonably well too and not choke). i wonder if AMD chose Blender as a proper benchmark to show that they have fixed this problem. i would say they seem to have done a brilliant job in fixing it with Ryzen 🙂
If Ryzen does this well with the "old" code... i wonder how well it will do with "new" code utilizing the newer instructions.
You are ignoring the various entry/exit and alignment issues that exist on the bulldozer/piledrive FPU.Your appraisal doesn't fit the data unless The Stilt's builds are somehow broken.
What the data shows is that the official Blender builds (at least since 2.75a) are not worthwhile benchmarks for Piledriver, and likely any construction core.
The Lynnfield data also strongly indicates that The Stilt's builds aren't broken.
This data progression doesn't look like it fits the claim that the reason we're seeing it is because of Piledriver's design inadequacies.You are ignoring the various entry/exit and alignment issues that exist on the bulldozer/piledrive FPU.
