Firestrike Standard Bench.

Combined score is down in comparison. After some research, it's a Ryzen thing unfortunately.

With the combined you are looking at CPU clockspeed, RAM clockspeed, IPC so yes none of the Ryzens do that well in the test. Having said that they do run the physics test very well where they can use the extra cores.

Parked cores do better. Looks as though Firestrike would need to be patched for Ryzen. Not that they'll do it as it's old now.

Have a go on Timespy as it is more useful for testing modern setups. it also uses DX12.:)

Edit the problem the guy is getting in the link above also happens on my intel CPUs, sometimes my 6950X will score 7.5k on the combined and sometimes when it is working correctly 10k+. The frequency is about the same too 1 out of every 5 runs. I normally just rerun the bench to get over it.

I bet you dread when new cards come out - constant work updating the lists as well as your own purchases, work, food and sleep to fit in.

No new cards to worry about for me yet. I tried to pre order a couple of Vega 64 cards today for a bit of crossfire benching but the system will only let me select one so I gave it a miss for the next couple of weeks.
