Generally, if a GPU is being fully utilised (99-100%) then your CPU isn't struggling to keep up, and the GPU is hitting its maximum potential. You'll fine you will drop below 115 a few times, but on the grounds of your GPU - not CPU. His GPU is at 99%, meaning the Ryshould be absolutely fine for your target even if you don't overclock. He is using a 1600X, but his GPU is the limiting factor. These are two very different end user expectations. This isn't even a consideration to an enthusiast, who would see a whole 10% more performance for only 20% more cost. After all, it's "only" 10% more performance for "whole 20% more"cost. Now, a lot of us will save the $60 and just tough out getting 5 less frames in certain parts of the game. Maybe CPU A just hovers at about 55 FPS and CPU B averages no less than 60 FPS, giving a lot more meaning to the "10% faster" CPU B. An example would be "do both of these CPUs get at least 60 fps in GTA V?". What does "10% slower" actually mean?įirst, do the two CPUs being compared both actually meet the minimum requirements of the person comparing them? This is the expected performance threshold. It's just arbitrary in the sense that a minimum performance threshold needs to be discussed first without assuming CPU A and CPU B both meet the end user's expectations and that directly comparing overall performance/cost makes an assumption that both CPUs meet everyone's minimum expectations.Įnthusiasts and semi-enthusiasts often end up paying a very high multiplier on that 10-20% performance boost, so to say something like " the 1600 is 10% slower and yet it's at least 20% less expensive than the 1600x" is just an oversimplification of a complex analysis between two same gen CPUs. Sorry, I mean't to say overall performance/cost is not a preferred method of comparing one CPU with another.
