It has been a long wait, but our first Zen+ reviews are ready and waiting, we take the new procs for a test ride. These puppies are running at up to 4.35 GHz and with up to eight cores and sixteen threads, that's not a bad thing at 229 and 329 USD.

It can do 4.55GHz @ 1.51V, but on more exotic cooling

Here's an all-out pic at 4.55 GHz, 1.5V on my chilled loop. 3733 Cl14

If there is a 2800X in the future, it might do 4.5 or 4.6GHz @ 1.4 - 1.5v.

Zen2 should be a "great" OC'er then, I guess up to 4.6 - 4.8Ghz np.

I'd love to see the 2600 and 2700 non "x" reviewed. AMD has already said the 2800X will be here with in the next few months. Unless that AMD post was a prank.

So... it seems 8700K is still on top?

If you think the bottom is the top...yes!
