Ryzen 5 1500X Estimated Benchmarks?

What FPS do you estimate the Ryzen 5 1500x to reach? Include games such as Overwatch, Battlefield 1, Crysis 3, GTAV, etc. all on Ultra settings. Assume you have decent mid priced units for the rest of the build. I'd like to hear how you guys think the Ryzen will perform. :)

Hopefully as good or better than the current I5 line. Otherwise AMD is gonna receive a very angry letter and probably a bomb threat from me.

The same FPS as Ryzen 7 at the same clocks IMO. Some super heavily threaded games maybe a few % loss.

Multithreaded benchmarks would reasonably score roughly 50% as well.

Edit: Oh, 4c/8t. I keep confusing the 6c/12t parts and model numbers.

I've read that it should be better, maybe only at launch. The way the modules are made, the 8 core chips have an issue with communication, which shouldn't be a problem with the single module chips. Should be fixed eventually though.

Yep, pretty much the same performance in games as the R7s. As for multi core performance I expect them to be between the 7700k and 6800/6850k.

Well since the R5s have less cores I expect them to OC a bit better. That gives me some hope at least. Maybe a 1400 could hit somewhat higher clocks with the same cooling of a 1700-1800, improving game performance and maybe hitting 7700k levels. At least 7600k.

Unlikely, you can disable cores on the R7's and they don't clock much different. In theory you'd be right but the voltage wall around 4.0GHz for this arch is pretty insane. I'd be surprised if we saw the 1600X clock much higher than 4.2GHz.

That said it'll game great on all of those, your GPU will have more affect on your gaming performance. My 1700 tears through any game.

Have you tried disabling cores?

Nope. I don't trust Ryzen Master and don't want to reboot my machine a whole bunch to test it. My RAM still is a little iffy, crashes when pushing higher CPU clocks. I've been playing it relatively safe and waiting for some BIOS updates to improve RAM stability.

Yeah the "beta" BIOS is a bit annoying. Hopefully all of this will improve, and with it, some performance optimizations.

I don't think they will game any different then the Ryzen 7. What they should do for a gaming chip is, release a 4 core 8 thread with 2 cores disabled on each CCX. That way it would have the full 16mb of L3 for just 4 cores.
