I have been following AMD and Zen news for some weeks. This is quite promising. If Amd succesfully deliver a cpu that can compete with intel on ipc per clock for a single thread it will, without a doubt, be a game changer. Not only that but we know that
1) The first Zen Cpu will feature 8 cores and 16 threads and aim at the enthusiast and gamers (so will compete against intel i7 6700k and i5 6600k mostly which only have 4 cores 8 threads).
2) Will probably (read it somewhere but cannot search for source right now) handle hyperthreading more Efficiently.
3) Will certainly be better priced than intels Cpus.
If AMD deliver on their promise than I will build my first AMD based pc at the end of the year (or early next year).
