AMD 7900X Retested – PBO, SMT & Overclocked

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

With all new graphical and technical enhancements for deeper immersion, Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC takes full advantage of the power of the PC to bring every corner of this massive, rich and detailed world to life including increased draw distances; higher quality global illumination and ambient occlusion for improved day and night lighting; improved reflections and deeper, higher resolution shadows at all distances; tessellated tree textures and improved grass and fur textures for added realism in every plant and animal.

Available now on Steam.

In Ratchet & Clank, again, performance is very close between all of the various scenarios of PBO, PBO Max, SMT off, combined with PBO Max and the stock result too so there’s nothing really much to say other than performance doesn’t really change no matter the situation.

Then when we enable Ray Tracing, the numbers are different but it’s a very similar affair with a small uplift with SMT off and PBO set to max but we’re talking minor numbers that can be deemed as margin of error, so it’s nothing to jump off your seat about, as it equals less than 1%.
