Bravo guys! Very proud Amd made such a kick-ass comeback!

Looking good! I hope ASUS use new sensors on their new Crosshair mobo
New sensors? For what?

All I care is that clock boost, I wonder by how much? Hopefully at least 4.5-4.6GHz OC is now doable..

Would hope for 20% uplift in overclocks with new process. So 4.8GHz probably be the upper limit to expect, who knows they might hit that magical 5GHz barrier.

If they hit 5ghz with this baby I will be impressed big-time! Prices will remain the same I assume since they still need to fight Intel off.

For their reading of voltages etc. For example, if you put 1.35v dram voltage it shows as 1.395v. They used cheap sensors and is well documented.
I have noticed that on forums and in reviews... did not know it was an actual issue with sensors. Thanks.

Guys, let's not start the hipe train please. For as much I like AMD for what they've done with Ryzen, the performance uplift will not be far from 5/10%. So if the top processor does 4.4Ghz Boost, it will be great. Now, let's stop speculating them hitting 5Ghz please.

I would be a happy camper if I could get an 8c/16t Ryzen CPU that will do 4GHz on all cores out of the box for a reasonable price.

@Silva why not? As long as ppl know to differentiate between speculation and real world numbers, its fine. And as long as there is no info stating the oposite, you could be wrong too (and it might clock higher). Not talking about chances thats actually happening 😉

People don't know the difference between speculation and real numbers. See what happened with Ryzen, people thought it was going to beat Intel and when it didn't, they labelled it as crap. What more info do you want? It's a node change from 14nm to 12nm. It will offer 10% efficiency or 10% performance. AMD is known to push and bin their hardware to the max so they'll opt for performance, don't expect an amazing overclocker. It's possible XFR goes to 4.5Ghz and that's it. Maybe you can overclock all core turbo to 4.4Ghz at best. Let's not talk about 5Ghz and then call it shit because it didn't get there.

A 4.5 Ghz Ryzen would be plenty to compete.

Truth be told, I'm more interested in the APU's.

My guess would be just 4.3-4.4GHz max, reliably. It doesn't seem like AMD's (GF) processes are too good with clocks/voltage needed. But who knows.

current ryzen processors are great price/performance ratio...any bump in performance would just be icing on the cake. OT: RAM prices suck!...16GB ddr4 cost as much as a ryzen 5 1600...and good Lawd if you need 32GB...

No problem! It's the only thing I dislike about the Crosshair VI
I have the same motherboard and I have set my RAM to 1.35v and it reads 1.35v in both BIOS and Windows.
