Oh, which games? The part of me who's still a child is looking for a GOOD reason to justify the spending to the part of me who is now a responsible adult (and to my SO).
- akhilcacharya 7y agoNot even super new games, but games like Deus Ex Mankind Divided and No Mans Sky have better frame rates on my buddy's Ryzen 2 machine with otherwise identical specs than my i5 3450. The first game where I saw the difference was Battlefield 1.
- dageshi 7y agoI think a lot of cross platform games have been optimised to use lots of CPU cores, since the modern consoles currently have 8. If you're running an older CPU with less cores, even if they're more powerful, you're starting to see performance drags, that was especially the case for BF1.
- WrtCdEvrydy 7y agoI'm seeing people's upgrade paths and I feel kinda guilty for holding on to my i5-2400 for that long...
- akhilcacharya 7y agoDon't feel that way at all, if anything I should feel guilty for thinking of upgrading! I'm probably going to survey the market early next summer before Cyberpunk.
- archi42 7y agoI feel with you, but honestly: If that machine is fast enough, why care? ;-)
