That is true. All these benchmarks are done at 1080p, likely without multisampling, and with insane GPUs. This is an extreme outlier that shows a worst case scenario for CPU bottlenecking. It makes sense as a test, but I feel people take it to heart too much. The vast vast majority of gamers, even enthusiast gamers, will almost always be GPU bound. In these situations, the difference will be minimal.They look the same to me. I generally feel we as gamers tend to needlessly obsess about test numbers when in reality they usually don't matter much. Ryzen isn't a failure but its definitely not exciting for someone who only cares about gaming performance. I can see value in having more cores in the long run but I also see risk in AMDs motherboard and CPU failure rates, so I guess its a toss up.
It's almost silly to point at a worst case scenario that applies to almost no one, and believe/claim it applies to everyone. Yet, that is what people are doing.
