AMD Ryzen processors do not perform efficiently with games at 1080p resolutions, but AMD has sent processors to some studios to improve gaming performance with their processors.
This busy year, where we will see many new batch processors and graphics cards, we have already attended the launch of the Intel Kaby Lake processors and the AMD Ryzen processors. The Ryzen are one of the most anticipated announcements of this year and are the return to the market of AMD, offering a very good performance with prices lower than those of Intel. The Ryzen 7 synthetic benchmarks are superior to Intel processors, in performance and in price as well, but in video games we have seen that things change.
Before hitting the market, we had only seen synthetic benchmarks such as Cinebench R15 or Geekbench, but gaming benchmarks made by all media, including those that AMD showed at a press conference after the conference on AMD Vega. AMD Ryzen processors are shown on par with Intel processors, roughly the same performance.
Ryzen performs more or less the same as an Intel processor, but the problem lies in games with 1080p resolutions, which are the most common. John Taylor has spoken of this little problem: “The performance deficit in games can be attributed to the development and optimization of games in recent years exclusively to Intel. Without optimizations, Ryzen offers consistent performance and has high frames in all games, as well as good performance in virtual reality. When developers take advantage of the Ryzen architecture and the additional cores and threads, we expect the benchmarks to improve and Ryzen to be excellent at gaming. "
To try to solve this, AMD has sent about eighty processors to different studios and developers and it is expected that by the end of the year it will expand to three hundred, more or less. Ryzen processors will improve little by little, as they have great potential. Right now there are hardly any games that work with more than four cores and as soon as the processors are optimized for multiple cores, the AMD processors will gain in performance.
