Ryzen 7 1800X Overclocked to 5.8GHz Breaks Cinebench R15 World Record at 5.36GHz
During the Ryzen technology event, overclockers broke two frequency world records with the flagship Ryzen 7 1800X. I was actually there at that precise moment they reached the tweak.
Der8auer pushed the Ryzen 7 1800X to 5.8GHz on an insane voltage of 1.97v, and officially claimed the frequency world record on HWBot. Der8auer achieved this feat using the liquid nitrogen, with test bench featuring an Asus Crosshair VI Hero motherboard and 16GB of 2400MHz DDR4 CL11 memory.
The other Ryzen 7 frequency world record was achieved by the Swedish overclocker Elmor. He used LN2 to push his Ryzen 7 1800X to 5.36GHz on all 8 cores. The CPU scored 2454 points in the Cinebench R15’s multi-threaded test, breaking the previous world record by 9 points which was achieved with an Intel Core i7 5960X overclocked to 6GHz.
This is pretty impressive considering the fact that Ryzen 7 1800X is clocked at over 600MHz less than the i7 5960X, but it’s still able to outperform that latter. Not only this but the i7 5960X also has the advantage of featuring quad-channel DDDR4 memory compared to Ryzen’s dual channel.
I included some photos that I took just 10 minutes before they hit the WR.

Yes, for the next 3-6 months Intel cpus *may* see better gaming performance, until devs optimize their games for Ryzen--then it's "game over" for Intel iXXX. (Fixed it for you, don't thank me...
)
Seriously, how could anyone not know that? Ryzen's raw performance is better than Intel's right now--known fact. Game devs have optimized for Intel cpus for the past several years--when Ryzen is optimized for, that will be it... Same exact thing happened when the Athlon was first introduced--it happened with Intel's brand-new architectures, too. Prepare yourself, Ryzen's true game performance is just ahead...
I hope you're right, because this would really kick up the CPU market into another gear & Intel would have to fight to compete. Thing is, only time will tell if this turns out to be the truth. In truth I think any gamer with a 60Hz monitor of any resolution can rest easy that a Ryzen CPU is a good buy, it's just for the folks who want say 90 or 100fps plus on 144Hz monitors where they're better off sticking with Intel for now. In fact, if I was building a new rig with a 60 or 75Hz monitor I'd for sure use a Ryzen CPU - cheaper & more future proof because of all those 8 cores, plus it would be awesome for non-gaming stuff too.

Meh I can live with a few fps less on the Amd platform,As it stands now Ryzen can pretty-much compete at every benchmark unless its gaming and even then its a few fps only.You get alot more on the Zen cpu! Its going to be 1700 for me I cannot afford to drop more on a cpu.

This is quite amazing, let's see how Intel responds.
