Try Total War: Warhammer I/II with that machine. Does your i7-4970K have DDR4 RAM?

- gambiting 7y agoNo, it's running DDR3 at 2333MHz. I mean I know it's not the latest and greatest but just as an example it plays Control at max settings at 1440p in locked 60fps, that's why I'm curious what kind of game could make it CPU-constrained because I just haven't ran into any yet. But then admittedly I haven't played any Warhammer games either.
- morganvachon 7y agoKeep in mind too that your i7-4790K is much more powerful than my newer i5-7400 was. It’s almost on par with my Ryzen CPU. If you had a Haswell i5 instead of an i7 you’d likely have bottlenecks like I did. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-i7-4790K-vs-Intel-i5-7400-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-2600/2275vs2929vs3243 https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-i7-4790K-vs-Intel...
- Fnoord 7y agoGP said they're using i7-4970K; it is likely they meant i7-4790K. I'm using the i7-4770K. Which misses a certain virtualization hardware extension this K-series does not have, but the other ones in the series do have. Which pisses me off to not hand. For that fact alone, I won't buy an Intel CPU. Thank you for the comparison, btw. Very useful.
