AMD Ryzen 3800XT vs Ryzen 7 3800X Benchmark – Ashes of the Singularity
With the CPU not being announced yet, there are no official benchmarks out just yet but _rogame on Twitter spotted a benchmark listing in the Ashes of the Singularity benchmarking database.
The system runs a NVIDIA RTX2080 with 32GB of RAM and uses the Crazy 1080P present manages a score of 7400 with the average framerate result of 76.6 and CPU framerate of 113.2.
The closest computing benchmark I can find is a bit out of date from August 2018 but that has the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X with 16GB of RAM the RTX2080 using the same presents. This manages a framerate of 73.9 and CPU framerate of 105.5 with a total score of 7200.
This would then give the AMD Ryzen 3800XT based system a 2.8% gain for the total score, then 3.65% and 7.29% gain for the two framerate results.
As for each batch the CPU framerate results compare as follows:
- Normal
- 3800XT – 135.9
- 3800X – 121
- % difference – 12%
- Medium
- 3800XT – 115.3
- 3800X – 109.6
- % difference – 5.2%
- Heavy
- 3800XT – 95.5
- 3800X – 90.4
- % difference – 5.6
The caveat to this comparison is that it doesn’t state if the CPU is overclocked or not. The system was also benchmarked 4 times by the same user with some of the tests benchmarking a little lower than the one used in this comparison.
