Gaming: 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.

I dont think so its not easy to refine 10nm like you think how many year it take Intel to refine 10nm it has been already 4 to 5 years dont get your hope up. If volume aint there there is no chance. AMD surelly moving to 7nm euv quicker then 5nmTkan215 - Monday, July 8, 2019 - link
I havent seen them drop any price i9900k went back up at amazon.com. Intel continue to ignore, non response and not caring for their competition. they want their margin this is all this company care about not your feeling or desireTEAMSWITCHER - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
It's summer time in Michigan and I have no desire to upgrade right now... I can wait for the flagship 3950X in September.Maxiking - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
Local anandtech yield and node experts got hit again. I wonder how many hits you can take before you shut up.As predicted, Intel still faster in games and AMD OC ability more or less unchanged, slighty worse. It is a new node after all buy yeah, you know better, so keep dreaming about those 5ghz on the majority of chips.

So more cores at the same TDP as 2000 series Ryzen is nothing? Ok.Maxiking - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
That isn't the thing I was talking about. My point was that local experts, I mean, trolls, know nothing about the manufacturing cost, yields, about the node in general. As it has been showed recently in the reviews, OC ability of the chips is terrible and lower core count parts tend to perform worse, reaching only 4.1 - 4.2 ghz.Teckk - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
Ah, got it. It is an improvement, but not good enough.Maxiking - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
It is good enough in terms of competition and that we can get things cheaper.But not when the raw performance is tconsidered. It is a hypothetical scenario, but had there been no 10 nm problems for Intel, AMD would have been in the bulldozer position again.

I haven't owned an AMD CPU since my K500 a very long time ago, but let's call it what it is - AMD has a CPU at the $500 price point that Intel is charging $1200 presently to compete with, and Intel's solution uses far more power. That's a win for AMD in any domain.imaheadcase - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
The problem is that the PC market is stagnant atm, if you are already a intel owner, absolutely no reason to upgrade to amd CPU. Most people who have systems now don't really have any need to upgrade like it used to be.He stated in article it took amd 15 YEARS to get this good CPU finally out and sounded like he was impressed by that?
Its a impressive CPU, but lets be real here, Intel has dominated the market already for years because it has better marketing, better suppliers.
Based on previous article comments, most people are still rocking 2600K CPU..FROM 2011! They still are very good CPU.
Thats not counting the price difference, while yes the one intel cpu is crazy expensive, its not a normal CPU most people have to go by, if you a regular user with the previous mentioned 2600K CPU..that requires a total system overhaul if you wanted to go AMD route...which to be honest is a risk on betting that a new amd system is not going to last as long as a 2600K did for you.
