Xe-LP GPU Performance: World of Tanks
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 its new graphics engine penned by the Wargaming development team. Over time the new core engine has been 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 runs optimally on their system. There is technically a Ray Tracing version of the enCore benchmark now available, however because it can’t be deployed standalone without the installer, we decided against using it. If that gets fixed, then we can look into it.
WoT is an easy win for Intel.

What really concerns me is this Intel Tiger is built on a 10mm process that looks like it is as good or better than the TSMC 7nm process. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7_nm_process. They do not talk about the +++ superfin variants for node density. We need Super Navi to fight against this. We know for laptops or gaming, nobody can touch big navi. Nvidia cannot. It will be much faster I think than 3090 or even 4090 by everything I see. Nvidia might be out of their league finally and put into their place. I would not be surprised to see Big Navi designs at 150w with 10x the speed.Rtx dude - Monday, September 28, 2020 - link
3090 is twice the size of 3080. So, it will ebd big NAVI in performance and bebchmarksShowtime - Friday, September 18, 2020 - link
Sorry, but with your name alone, we can't take anything you say seriously.MrVibrato - Saturday, September 19, 2020 - link
Oh, but there are quite a few who couldn't resist the bait. Which, and this is one of my guilty pleasures, makes for entertaining reading...hecksagon - Friday, September 18, 2020 - link
He's referencing the performance improvement we will see in AMD's integrated graphics once the architectural improvements from Big Navi trickle down.dotjaz - Friday, September 18, 2020 - link
In the meantime, Intel wins for the next 8 months or so. We don't even know if Van Gogh can beat TGL yet.Spunjji - Friday, September 18, 2020 - link
That's a charitable interpretation, but actually this account is just a sockpuppet for an Intel shill who got tired of waiting for AMD fanboys to show up and so made one of their own. Everything they post is nonsensical junk.AMDSuperFan - Monday, September 21, 2020 - link
Even as a superfan it seems obvious that our amd cannot fight against this new technology. How is a usurper faster than us on video for gaming? As the owner of ATI, we are a video gaming company. Nvidia with their Voodoo 2 technology has nothing on ATI. My 7900 card is still fast for many games even today - but the same cannot be said for Voodoo 2 cards. But we have big things on the future and we should get back our championship in 2022.PixyMisa - Thursday, September 17, 2020 - link
This was almost funny once.SarahKerrigan - Thursday, September 17, 2020 - link
Big Navi is a multi-hundred-watt dGPU. This is a laptop processor. They don't compete with each other at all.
