The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X Review: 16 Cores on 7nm with PCIe 4.0
by Dr. Ian Cutress on November 14, 2019 9:00 AM ESTGaming: F1 2018
Aside from keeping up-to-date on the Formula One world, F1 2017 added HDR support, which F1 2018 has maintained; otherwise, we should see any newer versions of Codemasters' EGO engine find its way into F1. Graphically demanding in its own right, F1 2018 keeps a useful racing-type graphics workload in our benchmarks.
We use the in-game benchmark, set to run on the Montreal track in the wet, driving as Lewis Hamilton from last place on the grid. Data is taken over a one-lap race.
All of our benchmark results can also be found in our benchmark engine, Bench.

depends on your development needs: in the article is states dual-channel memory. Not 4 or 6 channel.Spunjji - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
I have a question about the power numbers - do they look significantly different with only one thread loaded per core?ksec - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
If we look at the benchmark running on Open Source program, it is clear AMD tends to have a much higher chance of performance being on par or beating Intel. I wonder how much optimisation from compiler to other library giving advantage to Intel and not to AMD.Maxiking - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
Pretty sad cpu, bottlenecking ancient 1080gtx at 1080p. Just lolQasar - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
come on maxiking, the 9xxx cpu's are that bad.. after all they need the extra frequency just to keep what little performance advantage they, at times, barely still have.stux - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
Great review, but where are the compilation benchmarks?Ian Cutress - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
I was having issues getting the benchmark to work on Win 10 1909, and didn't have time to debug and retest. I'm hoping to fix it for the next benchmark suite update.stux - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
Thanks Ian, looking forward to the update.kc77 - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
I don't see the TDP comparisons with the Intel rig. Are they there? I see AMD TDP mentioned but not the Intel parts.willis936 - Thursday, November 14, 2019 - link
I moved to the midwest recently and I have to wonder: Who is christ and why does everyone care what CPU he has?
