AMD has a very good multi-core performance, which is significantly higher than that of processors Intel. This explains the very good results relative to its CPU opponent [Google Translate]
It's still peculiar for them to completely leave Ivy Bridge out. Because seeing as that, the FX CPUs are also "just a hair" faster than Sandy Bridge. Why not leave that out too?
That thing is just demolishing the graphics cards. Even a 690 only averaging 65 frames... I was anticipating such a monster of a card to average at least 75-80. Crysis 3 should look pretty freaking amazing.
I think its very odd actually. Ivy will generally game better than most of the 2011 cpu's. Also why are they testing on the old chipset. This just seems like a waste.
Interesting - doesn't seem to use HT much on the intel side, wonder if they'll patch it in. Regardless, nice to see someone code to allow the FX to flex it's multi-core muscle a bit - a FX-8350 @ 4.5-5ghz should be rather quick in this title - easily competing in the 3930k realm at a quarter of the price. Of course, that doesn't factor in an oc on the 3930k but for the cost difference it's a fair assessment.
Bought Crysis 3 today as well and installing now - got lucky and bought the last hard copy available at my local gamestop - ended up getting a hunter edition though it wasn't preordered by me
I remember telling people asking for CPU advice, get a FX-8350 it will smash a 3570K when these heavy hitter games come out, most of wich are 6+ core optimized......Those that listened congrats.
I am stunned though I would have never thought I would see my little FX-6300 beating a sandy bridge 2500k CPU. $130 FTW
Still stock for stock, and not considering the fx can usually clock higher. I think with next gen on the horizon and amd running all hardware on those amd is going to pick up fast. Add 15-30% for steam roller and it looks like it can surpass the 3930, at least in crysis 3.
So when it comes down to it, if someone is looking to play crysis 3 and building a rig I am recommending the fx chips.Price performance is nutter with the 6300 in this game.
Either way still a win for AMD considering a FX-6300 costs how much less? And a 8350 just demolishes it........and its still for cheaper.

Yup and other games will follow suite Im willing to bet. I called this one months ago. Plus, as you said add steamroller, and the fact all consoles are now AMD 8 cores. I made the right choice sticking with my AM3+ platform
