tomshardware.com/news/amd-ryzen-wow-patch-performance,38586.html

>Indeed patch 8.1, Tides of Vengeance, has substantially improved performance for those gaming at 1080p, particularly on Ryzen processors. AMD reports that you can see anywhere up to a 35% improvement in frame rates at 1080p at lvl10 image quality settings, when using DX12 in the latest patch.

BASED AND REDPILLED AMD PULVERIZING SHITEL STUTTERFIRE GARBAGE

>wow
As much as I like AMD, this is pretty much irrelevant.
Worked with a few current content private servers and they are 90% Brazilian/Indian players with a few Russians selling hacked gold for cheaper than the in game stores and live isn't much better.

yikes

35% of zero still zero lmao

Isn't there like issues with the game engine once you go above 160 FPS as discovered by Wendell? I'm glad the piece of garbage PC port is getting out of tests suites now being the outdated piece of crap it is and yes, it was a shit port in hindsight but being passable as a PC port wasn't a high bar back when it was released. The thing that really bothered me was all the idiots praised it way too much for something it wasn't.

HAHAHAHAHHA

Why the fuck does this matter when everyone plays cata, lich king and tbc? I didn't even know blizzard still has servers up.

shame only BC and 1.12 were good, on the upside, the emulators for them have gotten pretty top tier and the scripting's pretty simple

I agree, but I really like how cata gave more race/class combos. Like, why weren't undead allowed to be hunters when there were skeleton archers in Warcraft and the leader of forsaken is basically a ranger? Race/class restrictions (other than obvious, like undead not being paladins) never made sense to me.

I sincerely hope you're only pretending

I'm being hyperbolic since Intel's gaymen gains are like when you're over 120 fps... and even then it's for older games that look like N64 ports.

I wonder if this will work on Classic since it uses the Legion engine and not the current one.

It won't really matter with Classic, since the environments will be hugely less demanding. Even in the current game in the old world, framerates are much higher than in the new areas, because there's not so much fucking shit scattered everywhere. With vanilla there'll be even less.

more useful than RTX

What's next? 50% performance improvement in Duke Nuken 3D?

>insulting Duke Nukem 3D in any way
Pleb

You're right. What about raids though? Since those are 40 man.

I'm building a PC to play Classic. Do you think a rx 580 and a R5 2600 will be enough for 1440p?

The VII is a legitimate value with this.

Too bad DX12 is nearly unusable for me on my R9 380. Even disregarding lower fps i get a feeling that it actually runs slower not in a sense of lower fps, but like playing on not full speed emulator where game is actually become slower.

You're damn right baby, running Duke on Poozen is an insult to the King

>58.2 FPS
We did it bros, we reached just under 60 FPS in a 15 year old game.

Modern wow shares next to no code with 15 y/o wow

You do realize the game engine was significantly changed when it comes to graphics with every new expansion? It's basically a 1 year old game.

kek

>Pre-patch, AMD recorded an average frame rate of 43.2 fps with a Ryzen 5 2500X, and 42.7 fps with the Ryzen 7 2700X, those figures increasing up to 58.1 fps, and 58.2 fps respectively after the patch. The test system included 16GB of DDR4 3200 MT/s, a GeForce GTX 1080, and a Samsung 850 Evo SSD, all running off of a Windows 10 x64 bit install.

lmfao you actually think the skeleton crew at blizzard that is stuck maintaining that dying game actually rewrites lots of stuff every expansion? It ran on 1 core for over a decade of multicore CPUs being available and it still looks a decade old in graphics quality today.

If you actually think WoW is anything even close to a modern game tech wise you're delusional, it's even more old and busted than Bethesda's shit.
