It's ridiculous to claim that Intel is doing all of the memory IP heavy lifting while Micron is just playing fab.

AMD Ryzen 7 1800X 8 Core CPU Benchmarks Leaked – Giving Intel’s $1000+ 8-Cores A Run For It

...snip

Ryzen 7 1800X 95W @ 3.6GHz With Turbo Disabled – Outperforms Intel’s 140W 8 Cores In 6/8 Tests

.....so if I interpret this correctly, 1800X @ 95W and 3.6GHz (stock freq) outperforms Intel's 140W I7 6900K 3.2GHz stock presumably running at a turbo speed of 3.7GHz (at less than half the price).....but this is not absolutely clear......however what is clear is the 1800X will turbo to 4GHz and with a top end cooling solution...... go even higher

.....note the surprising power efficiency of the 1800X.....95W
....should be some interesting comparisons come March........AMD back in the game.....at the very least
