who is use the 8 or 10 cores cpu?

November 30, 2016 4:06:24 AM from Ashes of the Singularity ForumsAshes of the Singularity Forums

I am play with the ashes of the singularity:escalation

I7 5820K(OC 4500Hz)

X99 MB

16GB momery

R9 390 (8GB)

SSD

win 10 64bit

 

when I run the beachmark(cpu test), I see the total 12 HTs are fully used.......

so I want to buy one new cpu, 8 core 16HTs, or 10 core 20HTs to get better performance.

if you  are use the 8/10 cores cpu, pls present the pictures showing the  cpu usage by run the Escalation  beachmark.

the 5960x or E5 2666V3/E5 2689V4 should be better.

 

thanks

Honestly I don't see why you would be upgrading that, beyond wasting money I don't see any need.

Yeah, you won't really get a big performance boost with more cores, you are already maxing out what the engine can do.

I went from a 6 core phenomII to an 8 core PhenomII gained about 6fps. I went 8 for video ripping where it made a 50% gain. All other components were the same.

Isnt the 10core CPU like 1800 USD/EUROs? Not sure about price of that Xeon, but i think  i7 6950x is, from what i could remember... and you would want to spend that much money just cause of Ashes? In situation, when already 4,5GHz 5820k gotta run the game flawlessly?

 

Now if i had the money, i would probably want to buy it myself, even if i did not need it, cause i am standard nerd enthusiastic about the latest and most powerful hardware, so i can definitely understand... but in that case there is no need for any other justification...like whether some game will perform even better, when it already runs like a charm and you would not notice any difference anyway...

EDIT: If you want to improve your experience, i think GPU upgrade would be far more sensible choice. 5820k at those clocks is already plenty fast IMO, but you could do way better than 390x. Like 1080 SLI or Titan X....

I agree with Timmaigh, the CPU is not your bottleneck and probably never will be for this game. If you want better performance the GPU is where to look. Though I would wait for AMDs new offerings to see how they perform first.

Running the normal benchmark (not CPU one) in dx12 shows your where bottlenecking is happening, and the theoretical FPS limits of the CPU too I believe.

I have the 8520k and only run it at 3.7 very stable oc. 

I do have a gtx 1080 and 32gb ddr4.

With your system I really don't see you needing to upgrade for any game in the near future.. I certainly won't be and If I really need to i'll just oc a little more.

Bad example.  You went from a true 6 core (1090?) Phenom II to a quasi 8 core FX (4 cores, and 4 cores that 'share').

I know there was someone who had a monster 8 true cores, 16 threads xeon and they didn't see a bump at all.

 

If I was the OP, I would just wait for Vega and then make purchases decisions, since his card is old tech.

 IDK about a bad example, I was showing that I didnt get much for Ashes, but cut video ripping in half. I mean that you cant just upgrade the CPU unless you have a high end Video card. For me to see the gains of my processor, first I have to fix the video bottleneck. Video ripping can use the video card with its latest release and it made some difference, just not as much as the cpu for video ripping.  Was going to say video card didnt matter, but since they added the video card to help the rip, It does matter. Funny thing there is it only will use AMD or Intel. No Nvidia.

Ripping DOES use all available cores/threads, AotS, doesn't (unsure of the latest version) You can't compare them.

Look for yourself at this image.  It doesn't tax out all threads & cores.

That is why I said what I said.

That is a terrible source of information to use, that is version .7, so still early in Early Access, getting on for 18 months ago. Here is an up-to-date video looking at Ashes CPU useage under Ryzen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZLfJcHEMog

And it has been using them all for a long time.
