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.

    Take it easy, Bob

    Did you bother to read Andrei F's twitter post regarding the Bios update - it includes a nice graph where you can see the 3900x's cores boosting to what looks like 4.6 Ghz.

    Oh god, you're still on about that?

    Intel doesn't guarantee boost clocks. It's literally on their website. The only guarantee is base clocks. Boost clocks depend on cooling and power delivery.

    While 3900X vs i9-7920K and 3700X vs i7-9900K is a no-brainer, i would really wanna see how performs (overclocked) 3600 vs this bunch of CPUs.
    This will help making some interesting decisions for optimizing budged.

    Check Hardware Unboxed / Gamers Nexus on Youtube or Techspot site...

    Are these benchmarks of Intel CPUs after applying all the patches released so far for addressing vulnerabilities?
  • GreenReaper - Wednesday, July 10, 2019 - link

    The BIOS in the Intel motherboards tested are from 2018; most appear to only have microcode to handle Meltdown/Spectre (despite the availability of BIOS versions that would work). So... no.

    Thank you for your response

    No; they didn't retest the Intels on Windows 10 1903, which includes the OS-side patches for the MDS flaws. The motherboard firmware patches may never come.

    This really does invalidate the Intel numbers, but it's not critical: on a up-to-date system, they'll be slower, and Ryzen 3000 even further ahead.

    Will there be updated OC results with the new bios?
