You have to remember that IPC is itself an abstract concept that varies with the workload being tested at a given normalized frequency. In fact, in most synthetics, Ryzen 3rd gen does have the IPC advantage. It's IPC in gaming where Intel still wins, by a tiny margin, for the majority (i.e. <50%) of games. Cinebench has long been the gold standard for IPC potential, and Ryzen delivered on AMD's hype chart:Of course core counts are going to increase. Never said they wouldn't.
Still not gonna consider buying an AMD CPU until they beat Intel in IPC.
