Gaming: Strange Brigade (DX12, Vulkan)
Strange Brigade is based in 1903’s Egypt and follows a story which is very similar to that of the Mummy film franchise. This particular third-person shooter is developed by Rebellion Developments which is more widely known for games such as the Sniper Elite and Alien vs Predator series. The game follows the hunt for Seteki the Witch Queen who has arose once again and the only ‘troop’ who can ultimately stop her. Gameplay is cooperative centric with a wide variety of different levels and many puzzles which need solving by the British colonial Secret Service agents sent to put an end to her reign of barbaric and brutality.
The game supports both the DirectX 12 and Vulkan APIs and houses its own built-in benchmark which offers various options up for customization including textures, anti-aliasing, reflections, draw distance and even allows users to enable or disable motion blur, ambient occlusion and tessellation among others. AMD has boasted previously that Strange Brigade is part of its Vulkan API implementation offering scalability for AMD multi-graphics card configurations.

That doesn't make any sense. The Crysis CPU render is new as of the Ryzen 3300X review from 2 WEEKS ago. https://www.anandtech.com/show/15774/the-amd-ryzen...catavalon21 - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
AMD is shown leading in many CPU tests dollar for dollar or watt for watt.Achaios - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
Chipzilla, due to its greed, got us back to the Heat Output of 2008 processors such as the Yorkfield QX 9650.Lookup "Overclocking Intel's New 45nm QX9650: The Rules Have Changed" by Anandtech, and check the thermal output of the QX 9650.
I don't see why any enthusiast would buy these overpriced and bad cpus. I certainly won't.

Never underestimate intel fanboys. This statement is copied from fb comment section about Ryzen 4000 will have 20% IPC uplift rumour:"AMD is made for applications like streaming. Intel is made for the other 90% of the market that relies on the single core performance. Yes, most of the industry still relies on Single core performance. Maybe know your industry before making a comment"

TIL I'm a streamer. I didn't think data science was all that interesting!Cooe - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
Seems Intel took a good hard look a the FX-9590 and was like... "Yup. Let's do that. It'll work for sure this time, I promise!"WaltC - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
Bingo...;)plonk420 - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
a) thanks for showing core to core latencies! b) so this doesn't have TSX?Calypto - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
Why not throw in a Coffee Lake inter-core latency chart for comparison?Calypto - Wednesday, May 20, 2020 - link
ignore me I'm stupid
