It's still horrendously unplayable, but surprisingly, it's quite a bit smoother than the internal result. And finally, I tried to get GTA 5 running on both of them and here with the Intel Core, we got six frames per second average and then a one frame per second, one percent low, and yeah, it really is a slideshow. The game is entirely unplayable, um, and when moving over to the Ryzen CPU, we got pretty much the exact same results. Although I would say that with the Intel benchmarking, I could get into the game just first try, whereas with the AMD CPU, it crashed like six or seven times before I could get it to run. So they do have the same results but I think the Intel system was more stable with one core; I tried a whole bunch of other games and none of them worked on both of these systems.

Uh, Rainbow Six Siege actually worked on a single Intel Core, but it refused to run on the AMD CPU. It just wouldn't even launch into the game. Uh, Battlefield 5 wouldn't run on either of them, obviously. But one core, one game that I could get running for a little bit of the benchmark on both of them was Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Weirdly enough, the results were actually better than I thought; you can see some screen capture of the two running next to each other here.

I didn't actually do proper benchmarks here because it would crash halfway through the second scene with both of these CPUs; neither of them would finish the result. Would finish the benchmarks um, but yeah, so Shadow of the Tomb Raider can run for a little bit on both of them and yeah I tried a bunch of other games and none of them would work.

What's pretty funny about all of this is some of the games would launch once and then run a bit and then when you try to launch them again, they would just refuse to run entirely on both of these systems. It's kind of like they were traumatized by the experience like a kid finding a severed thumb in a McDonald's happy meal; like yeah, they're probably never going to want to go to McDonald's again now.

I'm going to conclude this video in the same way that I concluded the single-core Ryzen gaming video by saying that this is the most compromised gaming performance I have ever experienced. Now when you use older hardware like Pentium D CPUs or whatever to try and play modern games with, most of them just flat out refuse to run because they know it's old incompatible hardware but these games recognize the 10850K and the 3700X as being CPUs that they should work on, so they try really hard to work but then you get unbelievable frame drops and it's just such a terrible experience. I would actually recommend that you just give your CPU dementia just to experience it because it is terrifyingly bad.

This testing like in on the paper here these last six results three games between two systems took me two 10-hour days to get; that's just how bad the experience is using these systems. I mean Windows basically doesn't work, Steam crashes constantly, it is just it is a ridiculously bad gaming experience that I kind of think everybody should just see because it's it's quite easy it's quite easy to switch up all of the cores on all of these.

Comparing the gaming experience between a single Ryzen 3000 core and a single 10th Gen Intel Core, it's a little bit like watching two 98-year-olds fight over the last bit of mashed potatoes. It's gonna be kind of interesting for the first 10 minutes and then it's just gonna make you kind of bored and sad.

But we did learn something from the experience; first off, this Ryzen CPU core held up surprisingly well compared to the Intel CPU core especially considering the fact that there is an 800 megahertz difference in core frequency between the two. What this tells me is that Intel is in a huge amount of trouble with this upcoming 5000 series AMD launch. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how that plays out.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: eneverybody knows that intel has the single core performance crown well at least for the next couple of weeks until the next gen ryzen cpus come out this video is pretty badly timed but i'll do a follow-up comparing ryzen 5000 to 10th gen if there's enough interest but anyway i was curious to see what kind of real world implication this single core performance crown has and to do this i'm gonna test it in the most stupid way possible basically i'm gonna tase both of these processors in the prostate i mean switch off most of their cores and see what happens the reason that this follow-up video took so long to come out is because it took me ages to get my hands on a 10th gen intel cpu and a motherboard that wasn't under embargo but now that we have all of those things we can delve into the battle of the century single core intel versus amd gaming who will win the results are actually really weird but we'll get into that a bit later first off for that amd video i did some scaling tests going down from four core performance all the way down to one core gaming performance and for the intel chip today we're gonna do a similar thing considering the fact that we're using an i9 10850k for the intel side i'm actually going to start off with the gaming results at 10 cores and 20 threads where the cpu absolutely kills it with 1080p gaming it's it's real fast you're seeing good results between all three games that i tested i just used three for the performance scaling and then we'll have a look at as many as we can get running for the single core results uh but then when you turn off hyper threading on the intel cpu it makes no performance difference you've still got 10 cores which is which is a lot for gaming so the results are really good after that i jumped straight down to four cores with no hyper threading because i was way too lazy to test every single core configuration and at this point there was a small performance difference with gta 5 and rainbow six but it's not massive the most kind of visible difference was the one percent and 0.1 percent low changes uh so the games did become a bit more stuttery after that i went straight down to two cores again because i was lazy but we'll see later on that i i really needed the time for the single core tests um so when it came to a dual core configuration with an i9 10 850 k that's a terrible name uh battlefield 5 wouldn't even launch at all so it just tapped out at this point gta 5 got a big performance drop we have about half of the gaming performance and the same thing goes for rainbow six siege so yeah there we go when it comes to the performance scaling of an intel cpu down into dementia with fewer cores you get less gaming performance but now we're gonna take that to the ultimate conclusion we're gonna see what the intel versus amd single core gaming experience is like now when it comes to the test configurations i ran all of the games at 1080p ultra settings the same as the performance scaling and stuff like that as far as the actual configurations for the cpu goes i'm gonna let both of them just boost and do their own thing so i'm not matching core frequencies here or anything and in most of the tests the intel cpu was pegged at 5.2 gigahertz whereas the ryzen cpu was sitting at between 4.3 and 4.4 gigahertz so there is a big core frequency discrepancy between these two so it'll be interesting to see how this goes for the poor little seemingly disadvantaged amd cpu in in this situation now a lot of the games that i wanted to test just flat out didn't work so i started off with just the normal doom now the reason that i didn't use do maternal here was because it just wouldn't work with the intel cpu you're averaging about 51 frames per second with a 1 low of 14 frames per second it's actually surprisingly playable now bear in mind doom was kind of the only game that was playable on one core with this cpu but still that's fairly impressive now when we add in the amd results we get 54 average frames per second on the ryzen cpu with a 1 of 26 frames per second surprisingly with this configuration the ryzen cpu was significantly more playable yes their average frame rates may be more or less in the same ballpark but it was it was a lot more playable due to that higher one percent low which is very unexpected and just to be clear i even downloaded all of the same background programs that was running on the intel configuration to try and get the windows experience as close to each other as possible so you know this is pretty weird now let's move over to far cry 5 where we got an average frame rate of four frames per second on a single intel core with a one percent low of zero now as you can see here the frame rate is it is it's it's entirely unplayable there's no way that this is usable this is actually the worst result i've ever gotten in far cry 5 and then when you move over to the afd configuration you're getting an average of 5 frames per second which is a little bit higher and a one percent low of three what the hell again we're getting better results here now bear in mind going from four to five that's it's still horrendously unplayable but still it's surprisingly quite a bit smoother than the internal result and then finally i tried to get gta 5 running on both of them and here with the intel core we got six frames per second average and then a one frame per second one percent low and yeah it really is a slideshow the game is entirely unplayable um and then when moving over to the
