The AMD Ryzen 5 2500X and Ryzen 3 2300X CPU Review
by Ian Cutress on February 11, 2019 11:45 AM ESTGaming: World of Tanks enCore
Albeit different to most of the other commonly played MMO or massively multiplayer online games, World of Tanks is set in the mid-20th century and allows players to take control of a range of military based armored vehicles. World of Tanks (WoT) is developed and published by Wargaming who are based in Belarus, with the game’s soundtrack being primarily composed by Belarusian composer Sergey Khmelevsky. The game offers multiple entry points including a free-to-play element as well as allowing players to pay a fee to open up more features. One of the most interesting things about this tank based MMO is that it achieved eSports status when it debuted at the World Cyber Games back in 2012.
World of Tanks enCore is a demo application for a new and unreleased graphics engine penned by the Wargaming development team. Over time the new core engine will implemented into the full game upgrading the games visuals with key elements such as improved water, flora, shadows, lighting as well as other objects such as buildings. The World of Tanks enCore demo app not only offers up insight into the impending game engine changes, but allows users to check system performance to see if the new engine run optimally on their system.

In every case the 2500X outpaces the 2300X, but both CPUs are behind the 8350K. At 1080p, this is around 10-12%.

How many folks with GTX1080s would be using either of these CPUs tested (even if they were for sale)? :)Allan_Hundeboll - Tuesday, February 12, 2019 - link

Someone that decided to start gaming, or changed to a game that required more graphics power so bought a graphics card. Maybe a kid whose parents bought a computer, or a hand-me-down computer. Even I have been gaming and building computers a long time and I have upgraded the graphics card on my computers several times around the middle of that system's lifetime (I keep them pretty long). I have friends that play WoW and needed to upgrade.There are plenty of situations.Have you seen gaming benchmarks with low end CPUs vs high end CPUs when both have the same high end graphics card?

wrong power consumption test ...Ryzen 5 2500X get DDR4 2933 (1.3 V) vs coffe lake DDR4 2667 (1.2 V).
(for Ryzen 5 2500X clock up ram freq to 3200, or downclock to 2667)
ty and sorry for my eng.

another intel biased review . Why didint youput the price of the i5-8600k like in other reviews??maybe because you know that it costs the same as amd 2700 ??? tired of LIARS.

prove it.. post some links...Irata - Tuesday, February 12, 2019 - link
The statement by Pajuk is actually not correct - the i5-8600k costs $288.96 boxed, the Ryzen 7 2700 229.99 - both at Newegg - so it's not the same price but $60 more.pajuk - Tuesday, February 12, 2019 - link
