      My first pc build(in 2011) had 8gbs ddr3 and I thought for sure I would be set forever given I came from 2gb ddr2(dell oem). So yeah 32gbs was insanity for ddr2. Currently running 16gbs ddr4 Ryzen based system and loving every minute of it.

      Sean Price 40 FPS is very annoying to deal with, and most people in the gaming community don’t play on those kinds of frame rates; I think you’re out of touch, if anything.

    "CPU does not have popcnt" - for those interested, popcnt usually is a hardware intrinsic function, that calculates the number of set bits in a number. Often used for heavy micro optimizations. And usually supported by any cpu, except maybe refered to by a different name. So, two options: Programmers under enough stress to forget fallback options, or a really bad instruction set on the cpu.

      @angolin9352 3 года назад +9

      Programmers don't bother telling their compiler what specific assembly instructions to use or not use unless it's already become an issue. The performance improvement usually isn't worth the tradeoff of messing with assembly, instruction set fallbacks, and feature flags, and if you do need the performance then it's usually easier and more impactful to audit your code.

      @@Jambu5ter1 A bit but not that much.
      DirectX9-11 and Open GL in general are not "thread safe" APIs, basically one thread is declared the "sacred thread allowed to talk to the GPU", and well, it is the only CPU that can send draw calls etc, while all the other CPUs can do is to pre-process stuff to make the life of the sacred CPU easier.
      Now on vulkan, everyone can talk to vulkan, everyone can issue draw calls.
      So the D9VK can in theory give the DirectX9 the ability of being thread safe, but no game will use it because as far they know, you can't do it.

    Great to see 32GB of RAM working on this platform! Bit sad about the lack of time for proper overclocking though. For benchmarking in Cinebench R15 I've had my QX9775s at 4.2GHz with about 1.425V, so there was definitely more performance left to be had here. Enabling 'enhanced power slope' would have helped as well. In any case, it's good that newer APIs can now start to favour multithreading rather than singlethreading which really helps when dealing with an architecture of this era. From my personal testing I've seen performance gains up to 50% in Crysis 3 when going from single Core 2 Quad to 2x Core 2 Quad which is substantial.

    "G-sync comptable" means freesync - why would you say "as long as you have an nVidia graphics card"? It will work with any graphics card that supports variable refresh rate (except of course the gtx 900 and 700 and 600 series graphics cards, which only support G-sync classic and g-sync classic)

      he means technology CPU, MB, RAM, Using/replacing the other components to make sure they would not bottleneck anything else, thus boosting the maximum performance from the old cpu's/ Mb. He is effectively testing the MB here.
