Well, personally, I still think the scheduler can be tweaked, but I do agree the improvements won't be magic bullets for performance and won't make Ryzen leapfrog any Intel CPU it hasn't already beaten. Still, a 2-3 percent change in favor is still good and might even be quantifiable in day to day stuff, since the scheduler is the main responsible for having a snappy/responsive OS. I do remember the first days of the P4+HT, when the experience in the desktop was improved a lot after the schedulers were able to handle the extra thread correctly. Well, maybe nowadays it won't be as pronounced, but still.
I'm still waiting on AnandTech's part 2. I wonder if they'll put some new stuff into the light-spot.
Cheers!

I think you'd be surprised what can be achieved through incremental updates. A while back when the FX-8000 series released, all the benchmarks had it about 10-15% behind the Sandy Bridge i5's. Next year, it was only about 5% behind. Fast forward two years, it's 5-10% ahead in the same game against the same SB i5. One of the major YT reviewers dug up that info.
I'd like to see the review pt 2 as well.
Are you sure it was in the same game? I saw something like that on Adoredtv, but it took 4 years, and he was using aggregate benchmarks from Computerbase that changed games (and OS's and GPU's etc) every time.
