As you can see in multiplayer FX CPUs are better than even the expensive i7 4770k , FX CPUs seem to have won the battle, both single player and multiplayer......we are waiting for that game as well... we chose hardware pal, because it altogether loves Intel, so no one can nag about its being biased

BF4 SINGLE PLAYER
http://www.bf4blog.com/battlefield-4-retail-gpu-cpu-benchmarks/ this was one of the most cpu dependant levels of single player campaign
good luck everyone

The title of this thread is actually very misleading and biased.

BATTLEFIELD 4 MULTIPLAYER benchmarks are out, FX cpus better than all i5s and i7s

Below is one of the benchmarks from the link. There are actual several benchmarks and I will likely make several posts, one for each of the results for ultra and high settings during the course of the day (maybe 2 days) since I need to focus on work and got other things to do. I will basically compare the FX-8350 to the i5-4670k.

In the charts below for the GTX 660 @ 2560x1440 Ultra Settings for Win 7, both the FX-8350 gets 39 FPS, but the i5-4670k gets 40 FPS. Both gets the same average FPS of 34, but the FX-8350 is provide 29 FPS vs 27 FPS minimum FPS. Overall...
In reply to the following deleted response (deleted by a different moderator) by the original poster..

oh really sheriff?mantle is not applied yet, so don't say something when you have no info about...You are starting flame wars here and how the hell can Gaidax choose the best answer in my thread/post...I had already warned that, this thread is for information purposes only and aren't you biased, you disappoint me really...the most disgusting thing I have ever seen, biased moderators

The title of the thread is very misleading. It does not reflect the actual results reflected in the actual review with all the benchmarks. If the thread was for information purposes only, then you should have a title that was less sensational, and more importantly not entirely false.

I did not say "mantle is not applied yet", I stated AMD should be given preliminary credit for the Mantle API. Because the game is developed with the Mantle API it is impossible to say what it's performance would be like without it. Thus, it is difficult to state actually how good Mantle actually is just based on a single game. More games developed with Mantle will need to be assessed before it can be determined if AMD's Mantle helps level the playing field and allows developers to "truly" bring out all the potential performance in PC hardware.

With regards to "starting a flame war", perhaps you should actually read your own posts to understand just what type of language is needed to start a flame war.

 


There is no need to go further, all cpus are pretty much even here, I don't see what is the topic all about, yes fx 8350 is a little better but 1-2 fps!? will that count? but you are mistaken here Gaidax, because if this were true, then nobody would upgrade, the majority of people have 2-4gb of ram why does call of duty ghost need 6 gb?
 


Yeah I guess so. I don't really care as long as the game runs comfortably at over 60 FPS. Anything more is overkill (for me) and since I only have a 60hz monitor I won't really see any real benefit. I'm still planning to build an intel rig here soon, just for fun more than anything so I'll be curious as to what my own benches would show the difference between the CPUs for my own uses. Veered a bit off topic haha.

I hope they do care for more than quads, for my own sake LOL. BTW you might not even remember, it might have been last week, but I think it was you who linked in a thread a graph of steam's user base and how many cores their processors had, and dual/quad was the most popular. Do you think that the FX 8xxx series could have been included in that due to some programs recognising it as 8 cores and some as 4 cores with modules or w/e? It's not really important, just something that's been on my mind. If I remembered incorrectly and that wasn't you then don't worry haha.

Update: You just linked it again so it probably was you 😛
 


I am not mistaken because of the following: http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/

It is a very powerful built-in hardware survey by Steam - notice that about 98% of all PCs' with Steam installed have 4 cores or less.

In an environment where basically every gaming computer is Quad core or lower it would only make sense that developers would first of all go on and optimize for 4 cores or less, which is exactly the case here.

I guess they are not very concerned about anything more than that, kinda makes sense because the costlier builds won't really suffer, their e-peen will just be hurt, but nothing gamebreaking really. I guess eventually they will patch in improved support for those, but it is logical that it is not really a highest priority for them.

And yes, this lack of I7 support is annoying, but honestly - the frames I'll get will be good really, so whatever anyway.
 


The reverse is true as well, neither they care for people with overclocked I7s' and high end SLIs'... Those enthusiast guys are not where the money is and they care for money.

Case in point - overwhelming amount of people have Quad/Dual cores and the games are optimized accordingly, I mean you see the data before your own eyes - both Steam and Benchmark, really.

This situation will last for a good 4-5 years from now, the only chance for a change is if AMD will flood the market with cheap and attractive Hexa/Octa core APUs', which they intend to do, but even then the adoption rate will be slow and until Intel won't decide to make Hexacores mainstream in their desktop line - it won't go far anyway.

Another chance is with some really popular game coming out that NEEDS hexacores. but I doubt any publisher has the balls to mess with 98% of the potential customers.
 


Meh, he will just register (yet again) with some fake email and he is back here trolling us again.

The system is flawed. That dude was perma-banned at least twice in the last 2 weeks, he is just coming back again and again with new usernames.
 


Well mate, even if you don't believe that - just use your own logics...

What hexacores and ocracores we have out now? FX-6/8 line (with Bulldozer being extremely unpopular) and Intel Extremes... that's it.

Do you really think that any more than let's be generous 5%, heck, 10% of the gaming population has either of those, especially is you add the laptops to the mix?

I am sure that survey is pretty accurate, maybe a couple % off here and there, but it's definitely has a lot of data in.
 


Think of all the laptops... pretty popular there, mate.

Look, you may not like it, but that's the data from tens of thousands of reports worldwide there. It is as accurate as it gets.
 

I am who? what is this mirage!? you are accusing me? that's not good at all, I don't know who has done what to you or if you are drunk or something, but that's very rude
 


Cute...especially since you registered the day Samuel25 was banned and you conveniently act just like him and Darkresurrection with your posts up to the minor details like "good luck to all" and bold text.

Just be quiet and lay low, really. This is pathetic.


Anyway, I'm out, this thread is exhausted really - sweet dreams and all.
 

are you psychotic or something?! :lol: I hope you have sweet dreams really, but I am really worried about you
