For Wow players :p
10753
Those results dont look feasible.
Take the last 2, there is an increase of 3% in memory b/w resulting in a 13% fps increase.
I dont think so

Most likely it's just you that reading the numbers wrong

I took the figures from that graph, the graph also shows the large fps increase for the small b/w increase.
The issue didnt stem from my post.

Take a look on page 6, last image:


3200CL36 is DDR5.
The point being to show how a slow DDR5 memory kit will perform.

DDR5 3200CL36 kits don't exist.
The slowest DDR5 you can buy is 4800MTs

Gear 1 yes, gear 2 5600mhz+ ddr4

True but Gear 2 is irrelevant for DDR4.

There are two performance metrics in memory bound scenarios. Bandwidth limitations and latency. You can increase bandwidth infinitely but it won't matter if WoW is limited by total latency(which it is)

That's why there is a huge gain with "fully" tuned timings because the tweaked timings reduce total latency by a significant amount

Would've already swapped my x299 for this platform if it wsn't for the absolutely poor ddr5 performance right now. By sheer mistake did i learn
that if you occupy all 4 slots the ram won't even go near 4800mhz.. Why the hell did they rush to release the platform if it scales like a bish.
