But my eyes see something different. Let's take a very good game in 2014, Dragon Age: Inquisition, and a good game this year, say Cyberpunk 2077. There is a progress between the two that sort of compensate for maybe single-thread benchmark lack of progress.
Ofc the moore low is done now if you look at chips, but the pace of progress, if you look at the actual result where you need processing, seems to be satisfying.
I do know what you mean though: since multi-core processors started, the experience on office-like work has been little changed and you can def run everything well with a 3Ghz 4-core CPU today. The SSD was really more of a game changer.
- margalabargala 3y agoIf the progress you're talking about in terms of processing efficiency of those games? Or something else? Of note, I would bet that if you took a modern GPU, SSD, 32gb of RAM, and stuck it on a 2014-era motherboard with a i7-4790K it would run Cyberpunk 2077 just fine. I don't think you could say the same about a Pentium 4 running Dragon Age: Inquisition, or even Skyrim. Agree on the SSD being a huge gamechanger.
