b k.1648 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I still see way too many technical issues reported on AMD hardware to be interested in using them at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because AMD is in the GPU business too. AMD or Maybe NVIDIA hardware is "fighting" the other "internally".Is this really a thing? Can anyone else varify this as the setup I was looking at is ryzen cpu + nvisia gfx...AMD users that complain FPS issue are using the old gen cpuThe amd old gen cpus are particularly bad when come to IPC performanceNot applicable to Ryzen 2000 and upcoming Ryzen 3000Amd has been back in the game for CPU for awhile now, beating intel in salesyeah, the Bulldozer architecture was a complete failure for AMD, hence a lot of gamers that demanded high performance rigs switchover to intelRyzen 1 and 2 has been lacking in performance in terms of highest single core performance, hence intel is still the preferred CPU; will see how Ryzen 3 goesRecently, intel dropped their price for 9th gen, seems to be in preparation against Ryzen 3000. Afterall, if Ryzen 3000 performance is as presented in the demo, the price performance will be ahead of intel's. We will know in 2 weeks time!

Infusion.7149 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 As a WvW player , I would have to say that you should wait for Ryzen 3rd gen which is presumed to have superior low thread performance to Intel's best. I have an Intel overclocked i5 system and Ryzen 7 2700X. It's a similar experience on both due to DX9 , it will dip to 30FPS at times. With D9VK on Linux you can expect better performance, but on Windows you are at the mercy of the game engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A PC for 800€ and a PC for 2500€ will run GW2 almost equally bad, having difference only in some average/high FPS numbers. But user experience suffers the most from freezes, min fps, lag, shuttering, etc. so having max FPS 60 or 90 for some seconds doesn't help.
