Core i7 7700K vs. Ryzen 7 1800X With Ubuntu 17.04 + Linux 4.12
Himeno with its AVX2 optimizations is much faster on the i7-7700K.
The Ryzen 7 box can build a default Linux kernel in just over one minute.
The C-Ray multi-threaded ray-tracer loves the many threads of Ryzen 7.
And Ryzen continuing to do well in other heavily threaded tests... Will be fun seeing how well Ryzen's ThreadRipper performs.
