While modern processors have never been so powerful, Intel estimates that a significant part of their performance remains simply unused. According to Robert Hallock, Vice President of the company, up to 30% of the potential of the current CPUs would not be exploited in video games, due to a lack of software optimization. The Intel hybrid architecture pointed out from [...] Intel article claims that up to 30% of CPU performances are untapped in g…
Software optimization remains a key factor in the efficiency of Intel's hybrid architecture on its processors.
Intel VP claims up to 30% of CPU performance is untapped by modern games — software optimization is critical to unlocking full potential of hybrid CPUs
Intel is claiming that better software optimization for hybrid architecture CPUs can unlock up to 30% more performance without hardware upgrades. The silicon itself is very capable, but its true potential is held back by code that perhaps prioritizes more conventional silicon and, therefore, benefits from brute-force upgrades like extra L3 cache.
Intel Says Software Optimisation Could Unlock 30% Performance For Hybrid CPU Design
Intel’s Robert Hallock argues that there is one key factor that would make his employer’s hybrid CPU design really good: software optimisation. No, really. That’s currently all he’s asking for from game developers and studios. In an interview with German tech portal PC Games Hardware, Hallock said that the difference between a game that has optimised its software and a game that hasn’t is about 30%. Hardware-based performance improvements, he sa…
AMD currently dominates the gaming market with its Ryzen processors. Intel lags appreciably behind in benchmarks. Now the manufacturer comments on the reasons for the power backlog. The own hardware should definitely not be to blame. (Continue reading)
