AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16c 32t Processor Review

Gaming Performance

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Now, this is where things get interesting. In our opinion, the Threadripper 1950X performs spectacularly in rendering and number crunching tasks. There’s clearly no doubt about that. However, when it comes to gaming, you’re barking up the wrong tree with this CPU. 1080P gaming performance is far from exciting and the clock speeds just aren’t high enough to see any big benefit. Overclocking helps a little, but without a significantly more powerful cooler, there’s not much to be gained there either. However, 4K performance in all games is competitive. Sure, it’s not groundbreaking, but strap on a high-end GPU and game at 4K on Threadripper, and it’ll work great, but Intel does still have the crown here, and there’s no hiding that.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
