Fancy having a look at some comparative gaming benchmarks pitting AMD’s new Ryzen processors against Intel rivals? Then your luck’s in, because AMD has released a whole slew of official results to feast your peepers on.
In 4K gaming, AMD pitted its Ryzen 7 1800X against Intel’s Core i7-6900K, in a system which had 16GB of RAM and an Nvidia Titan X graphics card (the latest Pascal offering).
Average frame rate scores were, overall, very close across a range of games. AMD sneaked a win in Battlefield 4 with 72 fps (frames per second) playing Intel’s 70 fps, and it was a similar story in Ashes of the Singularity (54 fps versus 53 fps). Doom (using Vulkan) was more of a victory for the AMD processor which achieved 81 fps compared to 75 fps for the 6900K.
Intel’s processor just edged the GTA V benchmark, though, with 123 fps compared to 122 fps for AMD, and the Core i7 was a clear winner in Civilization VI, hitting 83 fps versus 69 fps.
Using 99th percentile frames per second benchmarks – i.e. excluding 1% of potential outliers, to get a better indication of overall smoothness, essentially a more accurate average – gave similar …read more
