retested, shadow 2950x vs 2700x (2950 gamemode)

higher max higher min same average

ArmA 3 to test single core performance.

results from shadow

agree just dont want 1 core to be blocking performance due to lower clocks

Forgot SOTTR had a useful bench mode so fired it up and tested at 3440x1440 and 2560x1080 on my:

i7 6700k 4.4GHz
16GB 3000MHz
RTX 2070 Super OC

Ingame RTX+DLSS enabled.

3440x1440

2560x1080

Going by these results I interpret it as my CPU even for a 4 core being still very capable and that at my native res I am GPU bound so upgrading to a 3070 class at some point would unlock further gains at native res max graphical settings without worrying about the CPU being a limiting factor. Unless I am reading it wrong?

Horizon Zero Dawn is a similar result although that game has no RTX or DLSS options.

This is at stock on CPU with 3070, SOTTR & Ashes @4K

This. I was about to comment as nobody had mentioned it.

Try a large map, against a lot of A.I. Brings any rig to its knews. Literally 5000 units on screen.

 

[stooeh]

Is that an old pre RTX build of SOTTR?

BFV in multiplayer. Little hard to get back to back tests for comparison though.

People talking about CPU heavy game performance whilst using first gen zen on a threadripper, Zen 2 is already significantly behind Intel for gaming.

Lol.
