IIRC Vulkan was designed to be more suited to modern multi-core processors, and I believe that the "HT-agnosticism" it exhibits is good proof that they managed that pretty well...
- Narishma 7y agoI think it's more likely that the particular Vulkan games they tested are GPU-bound, so a slower CPU won't have much of an effect on their framerate. I mean Doom even runs at 60 fps on current-gen consoles' low-powered CPUs.
- klingonopera 7y agoMaybe they are GPU-bound precisely because the CPU-intensive parts are so well done with Vulkan?
- Narishma 7y agoI don't think so. DX12 has the same performance characteristics as Vulkan, yet the DX12 games tested show performance degradation when HT is disabled but Vulkan games do not. As I said, I think it's because the particular Vulkan games tested happen to be more GPU-bound than the DX12 ones.
