Really? This makes me feel out-dated. Below is a review not even at max settings:
I just downloaded Metro LL...
and ran the benchmark at 1080p max settings. I can see that for 1080 (non Ti) the fps was around 60 fps for the stressful scenes in the benchmark.
If 1080 Ti is 37% faster than 1080, and if 1080p is 300% faster than 4k for GPU-bound games, then the estimated lower bound benchmark fps of 1080 Ti running Metro LL at 4k max settings should be around 21 fps (which agrees with the above review). It's gonna take 3.5 generations to hit 60 fps if each generation improves by 37%, and 60 fps is not a CPU-bound game. SLI/CF may be a different story though.
Below is a screenshot of the beginning of the game where the 4C8T CPU is nowhere close to the bottleneck.
You have nVidia PhysX enabled, your CPU isn't fast enough for that, you need a 6 core.

PhysX is run on GPU iirc
Its shared between the CPU and GPU, or at least it was, older PhysX games are broken on newer nVidia GPU's, like Pascal, Like it does with AMD it is running on the CPU.
Its the same on Borderlands 2, i also play MLL, trust me, with PhysX on the CPU gets overloaded, especially a 4 core.

A 6-core is going to be faster? You certainly cannot read the screenshot that the quad-core is at 20% usage?

There is nothing going on in your screenshot, its an empty scene.

Average FPS 93 ^^^^^^ that's getting very close to the most the i5 could manage.
----------
This is a good video, there is one game benchmarked but mainly productivity work like Image rendering, video editing and OBS streaming.
1800X vs 4790K, in productivity the 1800X is as near as makes little difference twice as fast, in the one game the 4790K is 4% faster, OBS streaming again it kills the 4790K.
Of course you could save yourself a lot of money by getting the £300 1700, even the £200 1600 would do a much better job than the 4790K here.

So that's how you welcome new forum members by calling them silly when you disagree. Good to have the first in my ignore list.You began spouting utter nonsense about English nations not being able to afford photographic gear or some such gibberish. Then posting random pictures of Asian dudes and cameras. Go away and troll somewhere else.
Computer scientist oh my, yea ok. how many of your replies last night backed up my points and you didn't even know you were doing it??
Humbug schooled you on how to bench a cpu so you diverted to random nonsense Chinese image editing software. Talk about moving the goal posts. Dress it up all yo want, complain you're being harshly treated all you want - you are either trolling or are completely out of your depth as you haven't a clue what you're talking about.
p.s. Why don't you move to china if they have got all these great supercomputers and photographic gear??

Nope. The lower bound is merely 70 fps, which has been increased from 60 fps.
Caporegime
I don't know what you are talking about with "The lower bound is merely 70 fps" Your Min FPS result is 30. not that this matters in MLL as its always reading some frame hiccup resulting in very low Min FPS score.
Your not a new forum member, you joined in 2015.

Yeah for streaming of course quad-core would struggle for some games. That's why Ryzens are better options for budget-restricted streamers. However, not every gamer needs to do streaming.

Just used red circles for you to understand.
Yes.. i know what those dips are, they are CPU bottlenecks, this is what i have been telling you, this is what you see in my screenshot.
Look again at the tread usage, i highlighted it.
Soldato
Going to install metro LL just to put this bed. If I get higher mins than 30 then ryzen is stronger, agreed?
Soldato
I didnt call you silly I called your opinion silly. There's a difference.
Soldato
He won't agree. He'll post more pictures of Asian dudes with cameras!

The so-called "CPU bottleneck" of 30 fps is indeed the dip within the first five seconds if you look closely in the graph. I wouldn't think it being relevant.

Except it happens again towards the end......

Is the benchmark for the redux the same as the standard? I only have redux......
