![]() ![]() The RTX 4090 rips through frames, and the CPU isn't fast enough to keep up. And much like 1440p, there are outliers to make the case for each setup-Prey, Metro Exodus, GreedFall, and Far Cry 5 each post significant 8-10% performance gains with the E-cores being disabled whereas Warhammer III, Spider-Man Remastered, Far Cry 6, Dota 2, and Civilization VI, prefer the E-cores left untouched.Įven with the highest IPC and clocks in the market, when averaged across all games, the two configurations of the i9-13900K post a difference of just 0.9% in favor of the stock configuration with the E-cores enabled. In between these two extremes, the majority of games still show too insignificant a variation, and we end up with a stalemate between the two configurations. If we look through all the games we can divide them into several groups. There's those games that really show no differences, E-Cores enabled or not (AC: Valhalla, Days Gone, DOOM Eternal, Monster Hunter, Witcher 3). The next group of games are titles that always run better with E-Cores enabled (Age of Empires, Dota 2). We also have games that run better with E-Cores disabled, but only as long as they are CPU limited (Far Cry 5, Metro Exodus). The opposite behavior is observed, too, of course. Titles such as Far Cry 6 and Divinity Original Sin 2 run better with E-Cores enabled, while CPU limited, but as soon as they are GPU limited, there is only marginal difference. ![]() The biggest takeaway from this article is that you really shouldn't worry about the E-Cores. ![]()
