 magic_rb | The 3d is consistently faster, 15 fps in cyberpunk for example | 11:52:43 |
| magic_rb | But then since i play on 60fps anyway, unless i cant hit 45 fps in the first place, that doesnt matter much | 11:53:11 |
 K900 | Well yeah that's the L# | 11:53:13 |
| magic_rb | Id assume the lower the fps, the less the added cache matter right | 11:53:23 |
| K900 | * Well yeah that's the L3 | 11:53:25 |
| K900 | Somewhat yeah | 11:53:49 |
| K900 | But also like | 11:53:50 |
| K900 | You probably don't want to optimize for 60fps | 11:53:51 |
| K900 | Cause you might upgrade your display at some point | 11:54:04 |
 marienz | right, but if you can hit consistent 60fps with a 5950x, you don't really benefit from a potential +15fps (without a monitor that can display the extra frames) | 11:54:04 |
| magic_rb | This is exactly what i meant | 11:54:27 |
| marienz | (unfortunately the no-compromise answer requires AM5) | 11:54:46 |
| magic_rb | Yeah thats not an option, cant afford that one | 11:55:13 |
| marienz | https://www.tomshardware.com/news/cyberpunk-2077-cpu-scaling-benchmarks has some relevant-looking graphs | 11:56:47 |
| magic_rb | Don't see the 3d here | 12:02:09 |
| marienz | (2600x to 5800x (not x3d) jumps from 45fps average to 76fps average (65fps 99th%) at 1080p rt ultra, 5950x 91fps / 74fps 99th%. I suspect 5950x is generally fine if you don't need higher framerates than 60. Would need a more recent benchmark to have the x3d in there, picked that one because it still has your older cpu) | 12:03:54 |
| magic_rb | Mhm, yeah | 12:04:18 |
| magic_rb | Thats really what im thinking. That the 5950x is completely fine if im not trying to hit over 60fpa | 12:04:40 |
| magic_rb | * | 12:04:43 |
| magic_rb | Which i really dont care about. I get dizzy from inconsistent framerate but im more than fine with even 30fps | 12:05:02 |
| marienz | I mean, that's just one game, but still | 12:05:10 |
| magic_rb | Tbcf it is my favorite game | 12:05:20 |
| magic_rb | Sooo yk, also, i wanna play that one in VR at some point with the vr mod | 12:05:33 |
| marienz | you're going to want more than 60fps for that | 12:06:04 |
| magic_rb | Not really no | 12:06:14 |
| marienz | (source: I have a vr headset) | 12:06:15 |
| magic_rb | Ive tested it | 12:06:16 |
| magic_rb | 60 is fine | 12:06:18 |
| magic_rb | Ive played at 50-60 fps on my dads pc for 3 hours straight, no dizziness | 12:06:38 |
| marienz | I stand corrected (if that was in vr) | 12:07:01 |
