AMD Ryzen 3000 CPUs Offer Smoother Gaming Performance than Older Intel Chipsedit
One of Intel’s core strengths has been lead the company’s CPUs have held in gaming, mainly due to higher IPCs which result in better single-core performance ultimately leading to higher frame rates. The delta has significantly reduced with Ryzen 3000 as the Zen 2 chips tout an IPC uplift of 16-20% across various applications, gaming included. AMD Game Cache which essentially is beefed up L3 cache also helps in elevating frame rates by a notable margin.

Nvidia GameReady Driver Boosts Performance by 23%, Adds Integer Scaling, RAS Alternative & Low Latency Modeedit
They loudly decried any possible benefits of AMD’s new driver features–the new Low Latency mode and the Navi-exclusive Radeon Image Sharpening. However, after some frankly embarrassing comparisons between Radeon Image Sharpening and DLSS in its poorer forms–notably in Battlefield V, Nvidia seems to have low-key conceded that these are features people might actually want. The newest Nvidia Gamescom driver update brings with it a raft of new features that Radeon owners might find strangely familiar.
