Ashes of the Singularity Gets Optimized for AMD Ryzen, Achieves Double Digit Performance Gains Of Up To 28%
Ryzen 1800X improves to slightly better than Intel I7-7700K in some Ashes of the Singularity tests (I7-7700K seems to be the defacto "gold standard" of comparison for many gamers). Its understood that these performance test results (Ryzen and I7-7700K) are so similar that one will not "see" the difference (only measure it).
As I noted in my Ryzen Build thread, my personal Ryzen single threaded performance had "parity" with published I7-7700K results in a CPU-Z benchmark (within 1 percent). And was almost twice as fast in multi-threaded. Better than I expected prior to Ryzen release -- I would have been satisfied with 10 percent difference in single thread.
Hopefully (for AMD fans), this is "promise of things to come" with "modern" games that utilize modern features (like threads).
