Final Fantasy XV Mega CPU Battle

Ahead of which ryzen's? Is there a Ryzen lower than the 1200? Cause iIt's behind even the 1200 when removing the GPU bottleneck. Actually, it's not even close to the R3 1200, since it's 50% (yes, 50!)behind when it comes to 1% minimums, nevermind the bigger Ryzen's. So wtf are you talking about?
go re-read the the tests and wipe away your AMD fanboy bias, the facts are right there in black and white. High quality settings, who wins? That's right Intel across the board! Enjoy playing the game angry!

In high quality settings there is a GPU bottleneck, apparent by the fact that the top 10 cpus are 2 fps apart from one another. I hardly call a 2 fps difference in average a win. On the other hand, when you remove the GPU bottleneck, as you should when you are benchmarking CPU's, what happens? The i3 8350k gets demolished even by the R3 1200. I'm sorry that reality disagrees with your opinion, but facts are facts. The 8350k is on par with an FX 8350 when not bottlenecked by the GPU. I predicted it a couple weeks ago, 4/4 are going to start chocking in AAA games. You have it right here

Your predictions have always been wrong since you came to this board and spewed your incorrect hyberpole while I constantly disproved you with links to every single legit tech site out there.

So I will play the game on the highest settings and get the best results on my CPU while you will play the game on the lowest settings so you can won't feel so inadequate about your CPU's shortcomings. Enjoy playing the game angry!

Claiming you did something doesn't mean you did something. My only prediction was that in 2018 AAA games 4/4 are going to choke. And here you have it.

I can play the game on whatever settings I want, fact of the matter is the 8350k is worse than every Ryzen in existence right now in this particular game. That's a fact. Changing the subject won't change the fact. Your CPU doesn't win a Ryzen 5 1600 in any settings, be it high / standard / lite. That's you dreaming.

The fact is, with a faster GPU (or lower settings) the incompetence of the 8350k gets exposed, since it loses by 50% to the entry level R3 1200. Whatever opinion you have on this fact is just that, an opinion.

And btw, you are goddamn right I'll be playing on standard / lite cause I have a 144hz monitor. And just to demonstrate how ridiculous your point is, let me paraphrase. I'll be enjoying the best results on my CPU with 88 0.1% minimums while you'll be dropping down to the unplayable 43fps territory by forcing a GPU bottleneck to hide the incompetence of a 4c/4t i5. I know the trick, I did it too back when I had an incompetent CPU.

It's pretty obvious by your very first comment that you are trying to provoke people by sprouting nonsense. Fact is there are quite a lot of games that you can pretend your 4c/4t outdated i5 is still doing fine. But kid, this is not one of them. It get's roflstomped by an entry level mainstream non gaming oriented R3 1200. It's a 90$ CPU for christ's sake. Go find another hobby

Dirtyferret, somehow you have become very butthurt in all of this and we don't know why.

The 4 core intel beat AMD in high settings by a margin of error in a GPU BOUND SCENARIO. So pointless, really.

With the GPU out of the equation (low, standard) the 8350k us looking rather weak.
Thats a fact.

The only fanboy is you who seems to be foaming at the mouth right now.
 
You did and we know you did. You are like a 5-year old sticking his fingers in his ears shouting blah-blah-blah.
Are you going to pretend you didn't read Strawman's post as well?

I am talking about starwaman's post, way too long to scroll through on my phone plus he just spews the same fanboy stuff over and over. What are you talking about?

*My bad I realize I clicked on some old post of yours by accident, I fixed it.
 
Not really surprising. The 2600k was was a beast. What's surprising actually is the FX, since it wasn't good even 7 years ago.

I think it has to do with the fact the fx 8xxx architecture is more true 8 cores vs intel 4 cores with hyperthreading? What u think?

Its starting to have a bit of a rebirth, and would be magnified with a heavy overclock. Problem is the damn things use MASSIVE amounts of power.
 
I didn't read your reply, I figure it's just more of the usual fanboy hyperbole from you. Enjoy playing your game angry and on low settings!

Of course you did. You just had nothing to say cause your argument got demolished.

I'm only a fanboy of Nvidia, since I have 2 tis', a 1080 and a 1060. Which is completely irrelevant to the point, and the point is, the 8350k gets demolished by 50% in minimum fps compared to the entry level non gaming 90$ R3 1200. 50 goddamn percent. And here you are claiming your outdated 7600k is doing better than Ryzen. Kid, you are a clinical case

Now go ahead, enjoy playing on high settings with unplayable drops to the 40ies, while I enjoy a vastly better experience with a minimum of 88 on my "inferior" CPU :)

PS1. I've just seen the benchmarks once again. Even in high quality the 8350k gets roflstomped by the R5 1600!

Good article why didn't you mention there is a free benchmark test for the game ?
Any who I am going to put my core i5 7400 kabylake to the test and see what happens.
I should be able to get away with it but it'll probably mention my gtx 750 ti is barely cutting it. >_>

Heh...let's us-PC gamers see our console brethren play it happily in their consoles without whining about graphics or CPU or GPU.

I envy them. They get to focus on the games while PC gamers bash each other out, while most not even having the top of the tier hardware, or even the hardware they are claiming to champion.

And no whining about AMD vs Intel +/ Nvidia BS either.

(FYI, I'm no console gamer either. Just a regular PC-only gamer.)
 
I have the new APUs and we've begun testing, so you'll see our in-depth review next week.

Since you're at it, I figured it's a good time to mention two things which crossed my mind today (reading Reddit).

First, can you check if Netflix 4K is playable? I've seen no news about that for AMD, but a Reddit user linked a post from someone saying that his Vega card now works for that, probably following the Fall Creators Update. If it does work, that's worthwhile news IMO.

Secondly, someone wanted to run World of Warcraft on the 2200G. It's not normal benchmark material (although I did find a Hardware Unboxed benchmark, which for some reason I can't find at TechSpot), but these APU's are probably precisely the platform for that kind of relatively GPU-lite games (assuming they're good enough).
 
Thanks for the effort, I hope the game itself doesn't seem so broken.
Thats just too funny. out in the street beating the shite out of each other over a buggy benchmark.another reason I do so enjoy Techspot.its like going to the local bar.look at someones kit the wrong way and a fight breaks out.
I guess some are still having comprehension issues . maybe should read the article a couple of times .
I'll wait for the main article ,.
 
Well I just ran the test just now, as I already guessed, I still need a new video card, other than that my system will play it fine.

Jesus Christ why bench at 1080p? Noone is going to play at that resolution. You might as well do synthetic benchmarks. Same real world value.

haha good joke.

You don't look like Jesus Christ, not by the photos I've seen.anyway, you let your hair down?

How could ya tell that was a joke? I had a hard time deciding which joke was better ,,I mean,the 4K 1080ti request was pretty good too.
 
It's interesting how suddenly low res low detail tests are more relevant to certain posters now that AMD does well in these particular test cases ;)

Now it no longer makes sense to play at 'GPU bound' settings on a 1080 Ti becaus Ryzen beats Intel at the lowest settings :p so of course that is the result we should all focus on... Haha

In all seriousness, this game needs some serious optimisation if this demo benchmark is anything to go by, perhaps newer drivers will sort out certain anomalies, let's wait and see.
