- A new analysis has revealed that Battlefield 6 runs way better on the Ryzen 7 9800X3D than the Intel Core i9-14900K.
- The difference is quite massive, as when paired with the RTX 5080, the Ryzen CPU performed 33% better.
- This is because the X3D chips are optimized better for gaming.
AMD has been dominating Intel for quite a long time now. The former’s CPUs have no competition in the market, and they are just getting better and better each year. Intel has even admitted that it is having trouble catching up to its competition.
From the looks of it, Intel seems to be hanging by a thread, as another example of AMD’s superiority has appeared online. The 9800X3D on Battlefield, paired with an RTX 5080, performs 33% better than Intel’s i9-14900K.
Why it matters: AMD offers CPUs that are best for gaming, and the X3D chips are typically better optimized for gaming than the ones Intel has developed.
A streamer who has played the game early has revealed that, thanks to the X3D chip in the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the performance is crisp. Bruhskey was a part of the team that was given the courtesy of playing Battlefield 6 during the multiplayer gameplay reveal event, so his words have weight.
He reveals on X that he was easily getting over 300FPS using the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and RTX 4080 at 1440P native. Then, in the thread, he shows a friend of his was using a Core i9-14900K but got less than 110FPS than he did with the same settings.
Friend of mine with same gpu but 14900K got 110 less FPS than me while matching settings. Seems like X3D will matter a lot.
Since Brushskey was getting 330FPS, his friend would be getting around 220, marking a difference of about 33%.
Another user reported in the comments section that TooMuchCyanide was using an RTX 4080 Super paired with a Core i9-14900K at 1440p low settings and was getting frame rates around 120-180. This shows that X3D matters a lot when it comes to gaming, and AMD is the better option.
It is also worth noting that Battlefield 6 is optimised to run at 60FPS on all consoles, including the Xbox Series S. However, the frame rate can be increased with the VRR.
