Question Star Citizen performance with a Ryzen 7 5700X3D ?

[manoj327]

Hi
I have a Ryzen 7 3700X and I want to upgrade it to Ryzen 7 5700X3D to stay on AM4 for the time being.
My GPU is an RTX 4090, and RAM is 4 x 8GB Corsair 3200Mhz.

Based on those specs, will i be able to run Star Citizen on ultra with clouds very high and using 4k DLSS ?

Try it!

I play it on the specs in my signature at 1440p native.
5700x3d will give you a nice boost over the 3700x.
Have a look at the star citizen performance heat maps (community-> telemetry), see where the 5700x3d lines up

Evocati member here — Star Citizen is incredibly CPU taxing, probably one of the most CPU taxing games on the planet right now. Upgrading to any X3D chip will give you a night and day performance improvement, more so in Star Citizen than any other game probably.

I upgraded from a Ryzen 5 3600 to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D a few years back, and the frame rate jump in Star Citizen was incredible. You'll probably have a 50% performance improvement in some areas if not double the frame rate.

Since you have a RTX 4090, the performance jump will be even more noteworthy compared to most others who have less powerful GPUs.

Honestly, if you have a RTX 4090, I'd try to make the jump to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, if it isn't exorbitantly too expensive.

Yes, with the X3D chips you can max the game out no problem, especially with a 4090. Don't expect above 60FPS all the time though, the game is still in Alpha.

Agree with @TechyInAZ , the 5800x3d would be as lightly better choice.

Another game that really responds to the extra cache is MS Flight Sim.

I tried to get a Ryzen 7 5800X3D but its not available and unable to have a time line when it will be in stock. The next best is the Ryzen 7 5700X3D and it is closer to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D in performance, so i am planning to get it.

Will i be able to set clouds to very high?

Ah bummer. the 5700X3D will still be good regardless.

Yes, you can set clouds to very high but don't expect good FPS even on a 4090. If you enable DLSS you can get away with lower quality without the clouds artifacting due to the way DLSS reconstructs the image.
