Any way to improve AMD performance?
" lol... I am an avid PC gamer and have been for many years, I also build my own for fun and profit. Most games are GPU bound and AMD vs Intel simply doesn't matter. And games that are cpu bound...well AMD does just fine. That's an objective fact. Also, there is no duocore that is better than a FX. Just no. Everything you posted is basically hogwash. A fx-8350 overclocked beats any i3 and keeps up with i5's. Last edited by DamageIncorporated#7815 on Sep 2, 2014, 7:04:24 PM

And I told you that you will even notice a difference on GPU bound games.
The minimum frames are much higher, and that is certainly noticable. Most games only use one or two cores, and Intel has a way better single core performance. Excuse me, but could you use Google? You'll see many review sites showing the same things and you will find people having more performance problems with AMD CPU's, indenpendent from the video card. It's noticeable, and that's what matters. A overclocked FX8350 is nothing in comparism with a normal Sandy-/Ivy-Bridge/Haswell CPU either i5 or i7, even they are not overclocked. Look at benchmarks, the FX8350 is just outperformed every time, and that is noticeable. Last edited by darkmatch#7802 on Sep 2, 2014, 7:04:34 PM

" Are you just parroting stuff you read? We all know this. For gaming the difference is negligible to non existent.And when there IS a difference it's small, and won't impact your playing experience. Unlike you I have experience outside of reading articles and staring at benchmarks. example: Skyrim is a game that's heavily cpu bound. I play it JUST FINE, modded all to hell so that it barely resembles vanilla Skyrim at all, on a fx-8350, @ 4.6ghz. No complaints what so ever.

Single Core performance is what matters for most games, you genius!
You talk about objective facts, please bring some in. I read about enough people having problems with AMD CPU's. Do you know what architecture means? Ofc you do not notice any difference in Skyrim, since the frames are high anyway, but in games where the frames are 40-60 with Intel and 30-60 with AMD, it's noticeable. You are talking about subjective things more than I am. Last edited by darkmatch#7802 on Sep 2, 2014, 7:07:29 PM

The difference is noticeable. You're just rejecting what I say, you don't bring some objective facts in. Ofc you will not always feel the difference, but in same cases you certainly will.
Just download Planetside 2, get to big battles where hundreds explosions are fired every second and tell me that I'm wrong. It's not the only example, but a very good one. The game even shows the bottleneck if FPS are shown, so you would be able to see what causes the problems. Last edited by darkmatch#7802 on Sep 2, 2014, 7:12:39 PM

I've layed out facts. You're too busy parroting Intels superiority to see the big picture. WTF do you THINK is gonna be "better"? a $180 proc or a $280 one? Ya Intel's better, but you're holding a straight face claiming it matters? The small difference seen on paper that you won't notice in a real world scenario? For gaming?? Just lol.
I'm done running in circles with you. Have fun with your benchmarks. Last edited by DamageIncorporated#7815 on Sep 2, 2014, 7:13:41 PM

" You didn't tell me any facts, neither did I mention I only care for benchmarks. I told you the difference is noticeable, this has nothing to do with benchmarks. |
