interesting.
but rumor and as HH said:
"So we don't know if the benchmarks were conducted with (heavy) overclocks".
but given Intel has had plenty of lead time, picking a title like "AoTS" is problematic and somewhat devious. we all know this is an AMD title (Zing!) that will perform better with an AMD gpu. picking Nvidia for the gpu was a bit of fun right there, but understandable as virtually half of the market for the i-9 is high-end gaming.
but all i'm really thinking is let's see some real (real world) testing with power and heat factored in.
Yep, this is a huge leap for Intel, and AMD are now dead in the water. Zen 4 is a year away, by then Intel will be on its AL refresh. Really curious what the response is going to be, because if these are the gains we're looking at, this holiday season is going to be all Intel.
Sure the new processor will be faster but Intel always exaggerates, for example my result is better than 5950x
Also, by chance, a new patch was released
Does anyone actually play Ashes of Singularity, or is it just an esoteric benchmark suite these days? I seem to recall it was the poster boy of AMD Mantle, or something.
The percentage seems a bit high, but I'm sure it will be somewhat more powerful in games. Who knows about anything else but games, especially software where all cores and threads can be utilised 100%. That remains to be seen.
Isn't aos kinda caps on about 8 cores?
Let's wait and see what those puppies can do 🙂
@Kaarme i think at this point we should name it ashes of bencularity 😛
@Hilbert Hagedoorn Anyone notice the dates on the two screen shots? Well there happens to be a patch @kanenas mentions that came out after the Ryzen screen shot. I have a feeling we have some shenanigan's at play here where one is using the patch to use more cores and one isn't.
There's a benchmark database that has more recent results. Even post patch there's a ~12% uplift over the 5950X with a 3090, so probably ~20% if they were both using the same GPU.
Apparently they're stock.
The average fps overclocked results are even higher:
153fps
156fps
If all these confirms in most of the games then ya, hats off, I'm fecking buying one.
don't flex your horses, it's more like a 20% increase then 40%, the tests were done with a grain of salt lol

Did you look at the version number. Regardless of date it is the exact same version.
Any piece of software can be designed/redesigned to manipulate a better outcome for one particular party as opposed to the other.
1- Ubisoft games favor AMD
2- Call of Duty games favor Nvidia
3- Same with this benchmark for intel.

Barely dead in the water. They had no need to release Zen 4 to be honest. Max to max a refresh of Zen 3. Will be interesting to see how Zen 4 will fare against Intel tho.

from what appears this time in the Call of duty the roles will be reversed

Went to check 5950x myself. It's not half bad. But like really this thing has always been weird.
its latest result is 28% faster than my 5600x clocked at 4.9ghz
