YouTube LiveStream Shows Benchmarks AMD Ryzen 2700X to be 10% faster
On Youtube, a video was posted (Livestream) of a user showing AMD Ryzen 2700X and some results. This means that some people already have been seeded the new Zen+ processors, Pinnacle Ridge.
The video was however removed again but did seem to be the real deal. The results, however, have not been lost, as hey anything that gets out of the web, remains there. The Ryzen 7 2700X processor scored 1790 point in CineBench CB15, a Ryzen 7 1800X scores roughly 1620 points.
So that is give or take roughly a performance increase of 10%, not bad. That result was based on a default clock frequency, the guy also posted a tweaked result, showing 1891 points with all cores at 4.2 GHz.
Interesting to note is the memory latency seems to have dropped a bit, at 3200 MHz CL14 the processor's memory controllers showed a 66ns latency, that's again roughly 10%.

Yes, that's exactly my point, and why I find it disappointing. I was hoping there'd be more of an IPC improvement. But like I said, there could be one in other benchmarks.

No expecting an IPC increase with this “revision” is a bit of a tall order no? I mean Ryzen is only a year old. The fact they got such a increase in frequency this soon is a great accomplishment.

No, it isn't a tall order. It's pretty standard, actually - just about every processor (including from ARM, PPC, MIPS, or GPUs) gets refined between each generation, especially after first generations. Skylake was pretty much the trend-breaker (where it wasn't really any different than Haswell/Broadwell other than the DDR4 support), but to be fair, it was also based on a very polished architecture. Ryzen is a great architecture but it's also the first of its generation, and it has weaknesses that could be addressed beyond its clock limitations. Even a 3% clock-per-clock improvement would be satisfactory.
I agree that this clock boost is a great accomplishment and a very welcome one, but I'm not convinced that they had nothing to tweak.
But like I said before, there's a good chance that they did actually make some small adjustments here and there that would impact other benchmarks. Ryzen is known to perform very well in Cinebench, so whatever those adjustments could be may be irrelevant to it.

1.296v for 4.2 Ghz on all 8 cores, now that is interesting to me.

Doesn't it just match the bump in frequency? 1620 -> 1891 = ~15% increase, 3.6Ghz to 4.2 = ~15% increase
