Pilotasso Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) Forget those, we will get a new generation in April, and 10% performance improvement (loosely mentioned by AMD), will effectively eliminate that bottleneck Not that it matters anyway because all new games are either dx12 or Vulcan that will make all your cores count (DCS included). So that's an 8 core and the biggest gfx you can afford will be fine. Edited February 15, 2018 by Pilotasso .

So that's an 8 core and the biggest gfx you can afford will be fine.Infact I will consider the upgrade only if with Oc we can reach (much) more then 4Ghz (actually I have a limit a 3.9 stable) and will have more RAM compatibility... otherwise I will just wait for Vulkan implementation.. Worth noting that I am not complaining...I have pretty good performance with Dcs at quite high settings...and with other games...well all maxed out and 144fps (I highly suspect that my 1080ti is playing a big role here :D ).. But with Vulkan in DCS maybe I could jump on the Vr Train and in general have more consistent perfo...who knows Inviato dal mio ONEPLUS A5010 utilizzando Tapatalk R7-5800X3D 64GB RTX-4090 LG-38GN950 N/A Moza AB9 FFB Base + Moza MH-16 Grip, VKB Stecs Max, VKB T-Rudder MKV, Razer Tartarus V2 Secrets Lab Tytan, Monstertech ChairMounts
Pilotasso Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 We know from AMD that base clocks and boost are going to be higher across the board. Based off an engineering prototype leaked a month ago it had 200Mhz uplift, so expect that at the very least. 4Ghz is likely to be exceeded. Expect 4.1 to 4.3 for most people wanting to overclocking it. .
VirusAM Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 This morning I updated my bios and finally I can get 3200MHz with my ram.....so tonight I will try if there is some benefit in Dcs... previously I used to run the Ram at 2667 or 2800... Probably with the update I could also clock higher the 1700x...will try as well Inviato dal mio ONEPLUS A5010 utilizzando Tapatalk R7-5800X3D 64GB RTX-4090 LG-38GN950 N/A Moza AB9 FFB Base + Moza MH-16 Grip, VKB Stecs Max, VKB T-Rudder MKV, Razer Tartarus V2 Secrets Lab Tytan, Monstertech ChairMounts
