David OC Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 It's why we need to hit the GPU from all directions at the same time. "What this means practically for developers, is that on device with more cores you’ll simply be able to manage your threads better, and allowing rendering strategies that weren’t previously possible. As I alluded to last time, this will lead to better efficiency and better performance of applications that otherwise find themselves maxing out a single core!"

rush158 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I'm currently running a Ryzen 3800x on a X570 Taichi MB with a RX5700 XT Taichi GPU - I'm going to upgrade my GPU to one of the new AMD cards when available but was wondering if there was any point in upgrading the CPU too as I'm getting the HP Reverb G2 next month. I also have 64gb ram and DCs installed on 1tb M2 drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reece146 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I wouldn't bother upgrading the 3800X. The relative difference is not worth it at this point. Maybe when Intel's Rocket Lake is out and AMD starts dropping prices very low reconsider it. Your board will handle Ryzen 3 with no issues.
