The challenges in producing worthwhile CPU game benchmarks.
So why isn’t there the same kind of consensus we more typically see in GPU reviews?
In cutscenes and the open world, the i3 was faster.
However, in the dense city of Novigrad, the FX-6300 ran a lot faster.
So, which processor is actually faster?
The question is, how deep do you want to go?
Another controversial topic is how you get the metrics to begin with.
So logically, to test a CPU, you hook it up with the fastest GPU around.
However, what resolution should you choose?
Some say that higher resolutions like 1440p upwards better represent the actual gaming experience.
Ultimately though, I’m not sure there isthatmuch of a disparity between the reviews I’ve seen.
Far more attractive are the datacentre and laptop markets, where power efficiency is hugely important.
Secondly, in the transition from AM4 to AM5, the Ryzen line moved from DDR4 to DDR5 memory.
Indeed, AMD recommends the same memory for optimal performance on both architectures.

We’re certainly looking forward to testing them - and the upcoming 12/16-core Ryzen 9 9950X and 9900X products.
A good example of this is the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark above.
