5800X -> 5800X3D with RTX4080??

[xoxen]

Hi flight mates,

recently I got the feedback in one of the threads below, that it does not makes sense to switch from a 5800X to a 5800X3D. Now I flew several missions on MP servers and see my GPU utilized in the 60s. My conclusion is, that the CPU isn´t fast enough to feed the GPU.

Is anybody here who has a similar config and can share his experience. The 5800X3D would probably be the fastest I can go on my AM4 board, but does it make sense?

Thanks,

Xoxen

Edit: I'm running 5120x1440 non VR

Adding V-Cache Wont Fix the DX11 CPU Overhead and/or Threading bottlenecks you typically see in DCS.

What it will do is give you quicker accessing of command functions in the cache vs calling the system memory or page file.
it helps in Titles or DCS Scenarios that do not face any bottlenecks, but in MP Missions, the scripts and object counts alone will hit both the Threading Wall, and the DX11 Overhead Wall.

The Best case Scenarios are +25%, on a game that has always run 200+ FPS already, at 720P, thus removing any CPU or GPU Bottleneck, but giving a boost in the sheer fact that the game's GFX Engine didnt have to poll the system memory for the directx commands, etc.

The performance is there and I'd say it's the best AM4 CPU to have for gaming, but as results for DCS, you wont see any vast magical improvements.

Thanks for your input. I just wondered by the fact that the GPU isn´t utilized by 100% as in smaller MP missions I created by my own (by far less complex). So my idea was to improve the huge MP mission performance.
