Ashes of the Singularity was the poster child for multi-threaded gaming but even that tops out at 16 threads (though an internal build supports 32). Are there any games which actively make use of 32, 64, or even 128 threads for those rocking the 3990? And, for the Brucie Bonus, how about 256 threads for someone with a dual Epyc setup?
 
None. And also, for that many cores even windows itself is gonna muck it up and mess with proper utilisation. For proper multi-core usage you gotta be on linux.
 
Honestly, none, and that is why I personally think Ryzen really shouldn't be the choice for gaming, Intel clocks higher and unless you're video editing, you don't need the thread count Ryzen gives.
