About your question on Ryzen and KSP.
More influential is the enhancements to the SSE pipeline which is used for physics on KSP 1.2 and later.
The DDR4 memory should also see a LOT of added performance in the GC cycles, and the cache won't hurt. However, short of about 256MB of cache, you won't see massive improvement from the cache itself.
Finally, I didn't want to mention this in front of the Intel fan-boys because they'd claim I was BSing (despite direct notes from the Linux kernel staff having to do the same thing) but we won't see the full performance from Ryzen cpus for about 6 months because the Operating Systems need to update their thread balancing systems to better distribute for maximum performance on desktop and maximum power saving on laptops. This will likely give a 10-20% performance increase on desktops and an equal power saving on laptops (sacrificing some of that performance increase, of course.)Hopefully most motherboards will properly report the power-save data so that it runs efficiently (nothing is worse than having to run in the always-maximum "performance" mode that actually cripples the turbo feature on the CPU.)

Actually, windows knows how to do that, the scheduler isn't an issue with performance, but I can set in the bios one core to run faster than the others for a short amount of time with "P states"
So before, with my 1200 ton lifter, I would get around 3 FPS
Now I am getting lets say, 13 - 15 FPS.That's a 5x improvement in FPS because of ram speed, onboard cache amounts, etc.

The AMD Ryzen power plan has already been released, when my motherboard arrives, I will fill you guys in on how Ryzen performs over my i5-4590.
I have DDR4-2400 with cas of 14-16-16-24.
The CPU I bought was the Ryzen 5 1600 (6 core 3.2ghz base, 3.4 boost on all cores, and 3.6 boost on two cores, 3.65 boost on one core, or two depending on cooling)
I can't wait for the motherboard to arrive tomorrow. I'm not a fanboy of either intel or amd, and I plan on getting an intel 6 core CPU when coffee lake makes i5's 6 cores, and i7's 6 cores with hyperthreading, i3s will move to being 4 cores, 8 threads. Imagine a 6 core with the same clock speeds as an i7-6700k.
