DirectX 12 and AMD CPU scaling

March 7, 2015 4:49 PM from

Hi folks, long time no post. Has anyone had the opportunity to test out the DirectX 12 version from the Windows 10 technical preview in a system equipped with an AMD FX CPU?

After seeing the Anandtech test, I keep wondering how it affects the FX series of AMD CPUs. Since they don't have full cores, it would be nice to know how well an 8 core behaves on DirectX 12 vs DirectX 11, or even the 6 core variants.

If there's anyone that has done test, and are willing to share, I'd sure love to know what your results were.

Just spent last week with it. We got a 70% boost over DirectX 11 on the an FX 8350 running Ashes of the Singularity.
