AMD Ryzen 3 3300X Gaming Performance Part 1
Contents
Synthetic Game Test – 3DMark
We used 3DMark’s Time Spy and Time Spy Extreme synthetic benchmarks, which supports DirectX 12, and the latest features like asynchronous compute, and multi-threading support.
Time Spy – 2560 x 1440
The AMD Ryzen 3 3300X was 7% faster than the Ryzen 3 3100, and just 14% slower than the Ryzen 5 1600X.
Of course, the CPU only has a slight influence on a game’s performance, so its effect on the overall gaming score is less significant.
Ultimately, it was just 2% faster than the Ryzen 3 3100, and only 3% slower than the Ryzen 5 1600X or Ryzen 5 2600X!
Time Spy Extreme – 3840 x 2160
At the higher 4K resolution, the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X was 9% faster than the Ryzen 3 3100, and 6.7% slower than the Ryzen 5 1600X.
Now check out the processors’ effect on the overall gaming score…
At 4K, it was virtually as fast as the Ryzen 5 1600X, edging out the Ryzen 3 3100 by just 2%.
F1 2019
F1 2019 is a relatively recent racing game by Codemasters, released on 28 June 2019.
We tested it on three resolutions at the Ultra High settings :
- 1080p : 1920 x 1080
- 1440p : 2560 x 1440
1080p Gaming Resolution
Will you look at that! This is why the number of CPU cores don’t really matter when it comes to games.
The cheap Ryzen 3 3300X delivered average frame rates on par with the 8-core Ryzen 7 2700X!
1440p Gaming Resolution
At the higher 1440p resolution, the importance of CPU performance was greatly reduced. It didn’t matter which processor you used – they all delivered about the same frame rates.
