Hey guys, I got some great news for AMD fans, upcoming Oxide Games new game engine, Nitrous, will take advantage of AMDs 6-8 core CPUs.
What does this mean? Well when a game takes advantage of multiple cores it has more free room for more activity, how? Imagine you on the top of a building with AI right under the roof, so?
Well these days gone are the days you had to go in a room and wait for them to respawn, instead they are already in there waiting, now the GPU has to constantly display them even tho your not looking at them, the GPU may drop in performance due to the that right? Now imagine 8 cores, 2 are being used by your PC/OS, 2-3 for your current game, and now with 3 or more cores left, they can be used to keep the AI doing their thing or explosions from behind you will be processed with the CPU ect........ While this is RAMs job, it can help take much more load of your GPU, thus meaning more work done with all the components increasing performance in your games.
In other words, games will run at higher frame rates with less frame dropping (sudden lag).
