If that's really true, a 16 core AMD having a higher performance than a 18 core intel processor at twice the price, that's a fabulous news for all consumers. Hopefully that will stop both intel from setting absurd price for mid end processor and generally push the industry forward.
Surprisingly no one noticed or reported that the memory is heavily overclocked by +29% in this specific benchmark. Here is the direct link to the detailed results: http://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/13495867
Officially Ryzen 9 3950X supports up to DDR4-3200 (1600 MHz) according to the published specs https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-ryzen-9-3950x however in this benchmark the memory was overclocked to 2063 MHz:

I think the bigger news here is that it almost _doubles_ the score of the similar AMD Threadripper 2950X (also 16c/32t).
34650 to 61072 in a generation is no joke, while being both a far smaller, much lower power part.

This might be an unfair comparison — the AMD numbers are from a single benchmark, and the article is comparing this against the aggregated scores of the i9-9980XE. A few i9-9980XE multi-core scores on Geekbench reach higher than 60k as well, with the highest being 77554 multi-core.
The Ryzens have an absurdly long branch prediction history that make them much better at repetitive tasks than random real-world workflows. I wonder how much this is effectively "gaming" the Geekbench suite.

Bravo, everyone on the PC side has great options now, but I feel for Mac "Professionals". Sad they just got straddled with the horrendous over priced and under performing Xeon platform. It boggles my mind why Apple would release a $6k model that will get trounced by these chips for a fraction of the price. I know the expand-ability is what you are buying into, but I imagine 90% of Mac Pro customers could care less about terrabytes of memory or a video solution that improves current vram limits. Add to all of that the gimped performance you are going to get on the Intel parts with the latest security patches.
There’s an increasing groundswell of trust in AMD and their Ryzen chip. It’s great news, I’ve owned one for two years now and it’s fab.
The new XBox will feature a custom Ryzen of some form. Who’s next, Apple?

That’s a lot of performance for 749 USD. Building a new workstation / gaming rig in about 18 months time so I will be spoiled for choice by then especially given the used market as these will be old hat by then.
Would rather see numbers on Cinebench, Video encoding, 7-zip...
It looks like single core performance is still worse than i9 9900K. I wonder how this could look like when overclocked?
Sadly my workflow prioritises fast core over multiple cores - audio production. This workflow cannot be made parallel as one plugin depends on the output of another. If plugins can't keep up with filling the buffer you get stuttering.
Single core limits you how much processing you can have on a single audio track and multiple cores how many tracks of that processing you can get.
It looks like I wouldn't be able to run my chain in realtime on this new AMD even if it had 100 cores.
How does 16 core Ryzen 9 3950X have the same TDP as 12 core Ryzen 9 3900X (105W)? It even has higher max boost frequency. Is it just because of lower base frequency?

Powerful stuff !
In order to see optimum use of those many cores i wish to see.
1. Most used legacy software libraries to incorporate concurrent/parallel algorithms for both CPU and mixed (CPU +IO) load.
2. Some inventive, compact and powerful heat sink design to be implemented in laptop models.

Why do you think Apple hasn't moved to AMD cpus for its Mac products?
In the past I thought maybe the rumored move to ARM could be the reason, but now with the new Mac Pro I doubt Apple will move to ARM except for some of its laptops.

Pretty stoked about what AMD is doing. Even if these benchmarks are inflated, it's an amazing bang for your buck and you can build some really solid budget machines. The next generation with PCI 4.0 looks extremely promising. I wish they'd concentrate on pressuring motherboard companies to make more professional non-server boards for the Ryzen 9 chips.
Does Ry(Zen) now support AVX-512 and thunderbolt?
It will be interesting to see if Jim Keller comes up with something for intel too, now that he's there and no longer with AMD.

With 1903 update or without?
I went with a ryzen for my newest desktop and it’s been great so far, I love it.
Not only does it work well, but it fixed the issues I was having. I used to have shutdown took 5-10 minutes due to some systemd nonsense, mysteriously fixed with the new mobo and cpu. Definitely a plus to have it gone now.
Tested with Ubuntu and also windows, Keras and games.

Perhaps we need data from "real" benchmarks, such as SPECCPU2017. Geekbench is merely a toy compared with SpeCPU.
Hopefully AMD will release details on the next ThreadRipper iteration before the 3950X release in September.
If the top end ThreadRipper is just two of these glued together then there's not really any other choice for a workstation build.
But if the next ThreadRipper goes further and has 4 core complexes on a single MMU then it have insane performance.

Traditionally AMD does NUMA differently from Intel. Would like to see a comparison focusing on NUMA.
And it looks like it has room for overclocking. Here to 5GHz and 65499 points in Geekbench 4 (record for Core i9-7960X is 60991 points)

Does anyone know how these CPUs compare with Spectre/Meltdown protections enabled?
I want one, no real reason other than increasing my SETI@Home score, however I'd probably do a lot more video encoding with that much horsepower.
Wondering if it does makes bazel build faster?
> So, as AMD’s new 16-core Zen 2 flagship has now been officially launched
Does that mean there's no 16c Threadripper planned?

More interesting is how close they are in single core performance.
This is a very important battle to watch.

Whose your fave Youtube reviewer for CPU releases?
Wow
Single-core performance > Multi-core performance for most workloads. Maybe in 10 years it will be the opposite.
