*** AMD "Zen" thread (inc AM4/APU discussion) ***

WOT doesn't like AMD GPU overclocks :/ but doesn't surprise me for CPU overclocks either. Is an archaic DX9 engine
However how you managed 120fps? I have tried on GTX1080 @2190 core at 2560x1440 with the 6700K @ 4.8, 4930K @4.5, 4820K @ 5Ghz and never managed to see more than 108 on zoom out mode. Only zoom in and that 117-118 never 120. And exactly the same perf regardless if GTX1080 was stock, or OCed at 2190. Same applied to the Nano also. Same FPS regardless if is 1000/500, 1000/550 or 1100/550.

I don't understand how you have never seen more than 118fps in WOT, using a 4790K at 4.6 & a 980SC I have seen 127fps, I have a screenshot somewhere I will dig it out and post it.
 
You get the feeling there's going to be re-visiting of performance reviews on Ryzen in a few months.
P.s don't skimp on the memory apparently.

I'd hope so, Once all the teething issues are ironed out I imagine the gaming results will be a lot better, I was watching a Fallout 4 video on U-tube with side by side runs using a 3570k, 1700x and a 6700k all at 4.0ghz. Watching the cores and overall cpu usage you could see half of Ryzens threads were barely touched and while the Intels had a fairly even spread on Ryzen one of cores was at 67% while the next best was at 30% with the rest dropping from there and as i said half had single figure percentages so overall the Intels where at around 50% usage overall while the 1700x was at around 26% usage. Once it's balanced out and working as it should be I imagine it'll give the 6700k a run for it's money even with the 6700 having higher clocks rsather than a down clock or turbo off.

Zoom in isn't an problem, nor Arty top down view. However zoomed out mode though is different matter
 
If you have the time, would you be able to do a thirty minute run of realbench stress test for 16 (assuming have thirty) and let me know how it goes.

I just need to figure out if I need to send all this Ryzen rubbish back, or stop running that test.

EDIT: 16GB usage this time.

Even the way they are now I wouldn't complain. Last year I was expecting 2500k performance as best so this is a bonus and will get better once optimised and games start using multi core. It's not the same as when bulldozer came out and literally nobody was interested in multi cores for gaming.
For me I like strategy games the best so for future a 4 core cpu is a definite no go for me.
 
Looks like you're getting pretty good performance ^^^^

Thanks, that's with a 4790k @ 4.6 & a EVGA 980SC with everything set to maximum on a Dell U2715H, I was getting the same with a GTX1080 FTW and no matter what I tried a couldn't anymore fps, I think there's a limit with the game engine.
