content: I'm worried about AMD's ZEN. So, like many of you, I have been very excited to see some competition come back to the PC market with AMD's Zen coming out. I do worry about one thing. Single thread performance. This article from WCCFtech notes that the 8 core zen will be on par with Intel's i7 5960X. This is great news if you have use for something that will use multi-threading like video editing or rendering, but it will probably not benefit gamers as much. Check out the single thread performance comparing the i7 5960X vs the i7 7700k. Not as excited now, are we? While I'll wait and see, I've lost a bit of excitement about Zen.
