Clearing a GPU doubt


Recommended Posts

I' waiting for upcoming RX 580 or AMD Vega in few months later, should be a mass upgrade from HD 7970 :megalol:

 

That's my hope too....and then have NV counter big time as with Gsync I am kinda stuck with NV but need AMD as a competition driver to kick NV's behind...BIG TIME

 

 

BTW Cyrix is also back with x86...things get moving again....no crown stays on the same head forever *wink NV & Intel *wink !

 

Well I hope for Vega is good and cheap enough. I will be upgrading too with Ryzan + Vega or Rx580

I don't think AMD Ryzen make DCS much better than Intel

 

Ryzen 1700X/ 1800X has more physical cores than Intel Kabylake but DCS World eats only 2 cores

 

The game gains performance if you have CPU overclocked, higher clock frequency per core higher fps

I know DCS only using 2 cores, well It is much cheaper than intel. There is not much difference in terms of performance. You can find difference in benchmarks not feel in actual game play. Plus it is more future proof.

If it is SOLELY for DCS I'd get an i5, a BIG FAT COOLER and go -->5G

 

THAT, is what you want and need, even if you dont know yet ;)

 

 

IF you do other MP stuff, get any Ryzen that clocks up to 4G and settle with it.

 

 

As a matter of fact, if you have a fast GPU that can outrun your CPU below 4k..well then you should maybe not get an AMD. If you intend >1440p then AMD is the right choice

Nobody says AMD makes DCS faster than Intel, that is simply not the truth.

 

But at a certain resolution, say at or above 4k, it may not play such a big role anympore and the other positive things of the AMD can outweight the drawbacks.

 

Still, the king for DCS is any i5/i7 at around 5G, you just cant catch that thing right now with any AMD, that's the truth.

 

On the other hand, if you do a lot of WS stuff, you cant beat the AMD !

 

Pick your truth !

and don't forget DCS world only uses 1 core, it needs a 2nd core just for sound, you could shut off all other cores except for 2 on your cpu, clock 1 core to 200mhz for the sound and keep the other at 5ghz, and it would work fine, really, just 1 core...

 

or you could shut off all but 1 core and leave hyperthreading on, and really honestly just use 1 core...

 

AMD IPC, still isn't as good as intel IPC, a current gen i7 at 4GHz is faster than a ryzen at 4ghz(anywhere up to quad core)... the difference is a current gen i7 costs the same (roughly) but will easily clock to 5ghz...

 

also the fact that a 4 core intel cpu still beats out an 8 core amd cpu in non-gpu bound games, even some that, unlike dcs, actually can use 8 threads....

 

if you're buying a computer, you should buy it for what you play now, to get the best possible experience for right now, because futureproofing is easier than ever, since cpu/gpu performance has gone from 60%+ a year, the way it was in the 90s and early 2000s, to... we're lucky if we see 10% gains in a year now...

There is this 1 test with a Ryzen's mem at 3600..oh boy....it matches the 7700k at 5G !

 

We have to wait and see when AMD supports faster RAM for all and not hand fiddled to run.

 

BUT..it surpassed the 7700k in some and pulled even everywhere else, Ryzen at 4G, 7700k at 5G !!

 

link and vid is in Ryzen price politics thread from Pilotasso....

What is this 4G, 5G, do you mean GHz? (As in GigaHertz)

sorry, yes, G as GHz.

 

Every website started using that term "5G" so I adopted :P
