would like to know whether the AMD quad-core CPUX4-740 produced 10 years ago with the 580 independent graphics can play AAA games? In this issue, we take a look at this CPU, which is said to be silently surpassed by the Intel Core i3 of the same generation. After 10 years, can it still play Genshin Impact with a 580 independent graphics card, and can it still play some AAA masterpiece games?
In October 2012, facing the 3rd generation Core i3 released by intel in 2012 and the 2nd generation i3 released the previous year, AMD launched this new generation of The FM2 interface pile driver core is the Athlon 2nd generation X4 series X740 CPU with no core display. In the last two issues, we have introduced the X4-740 processor and evaluated its performance in daily office work, as well as the performance of this processor when used with the 745 independent display to watch 4K high-definition videos.
article:
Hardware information, the CPU is an X4-740 quad-core processor, Colorful A78pro motherboard, 8G dual-channel memory, 128G solid state drive, the graphics card is XFX RX580 8G, and the monitor is a SANC 27-inch 2K model.
Next, let’s review the current mainstream large-scale online games. "Genshin Impact"
"Genshin Impact" is an open world online game launched simultaneously by MiHoYo on multiple platforms around the world at the end of September 2020. It is a mobile version of the game, a console version of online games and a PC version of online games. It is a game with data exchange on the same network. After its launch, it has become very popular in countries around the world except China. Currently, there are more than 100 million users worldwide.
, a 3D mainstream online game that is very popular at this stage, also has certain requirements for graphics card . Genshin Impact is made using the unity3D image engine. Although this engine is weaker than the Unreal 4 engine, if you want to use full image quality, the graphics card must be at least GTX2060 or above.
The minimum configuration requirement for Genshin Impact on the PC side is an i5 or equivalent processor, and the X4-740 itself is only close to the first-generation i3 in terms of performance, and its performance is far inferior to that of the i5. So this time we will take a look at whether the X4-740, an AMD quad-core processor that is silently surpassed by the i3, can still play this mainstream online game.
We use the default resolution of the monitor, a 2K resolution of 2560 by 1440, to play the game, with medium quality settings.
There is no slowdown after opening the game, and the game runs relatively smoothly overall.
After playing the game for a period of time, the FPS frame rate and were always around 60. The final evaluation result showed that the average frame rate was 56. During the game, the CPU occupancy rate was always above 90, but the game always ran smoothly without any slowdown. This shows that the minimum configuration of the game may not be at its limit. We will take a look later to see if the dual-core processor can also run Genshin Impact at a stable frame rate of more than 30 frames.
Therefore, the X4-740 processor and a better graphics card can completely play the game of Genshin Impact, especially if it is played at 1080p, which can ensure smoothness.
Next, let's take a look at another long-lasting mainstream online game " Crossfire " CF,
We used the HD version of Crossfire for evaluation, and the resolution was set to 1080p high quality
During the game, the FPS frame rate was always around 80-100, and the CPU usage was in the 70s or 80s. It was completely stress-free to play. The
online game test has ended here. Next, let’s take a look at the performance of the X4-740 processor when used with the RX580 graphics card to play some 3A game masterpieces.
First, let’s take a look at the Call of Duty World War II game. This game was released at the end of 2017. Because the Call of Duty Black Ops 4 released at the end of 2018 did not have single-player missions, so as the last Call of Duty 3A masterpiece that players can play single-player missions before 2020, it is often used as a game review object. The
review still uses 2K resolution, 2560 by 1422 (2K window) mode to play the game, and the image is set to medium quality.
has no lag at all during the game, including some complex scenes. The game as a whole is relatively smooth and the playability is relatively high.
After a period of game play, the average FPS is 32, the average CPU occupancy is 89%, and the GPU occupancy is close to 40%,
The game as a whole is still playable. Although it is still far from the average smoothness of 60 frames, and the CPU occupancy rate is always around 90% during the actual game, the game process is still relatively smooth. If the resolution is reduced to 1080p, the smoothness will be further improved.
Finally, let’s take a look at the performance of the game “Rise of the Tomb Raider”. “Rise of the Tomb Raider” was released at the end of 2016. It was a 3A masterpiece game of the year, and it was also a game that many game review media often reviewed before 2020.
We still use the 2K resolution mode to play the game in this evaluation, and the image is set to medium quality.
After a period of gaming, the average FPS It is also around 30. During the game, the CPU occupancy rate is always around 95 and the GPU occupancy rate is around 60. However, this does not affect the smoothness of the game. The game process is still relatively smooth. Actions, cutscenes, etc. are always relatively smooth. It can be seen that there is no problem playing this game on this platform, especially if the resolution is set lower to 1080p.
evaluation summary, the AMD quad-core processor X4-740CPU released 10 years ago is equipped with the mining card RX580 (performance is close to GTX1060), evaluation It can indeed run the mainstream online game "Genshin Impact" and some 3A game masterpieces smoothly. At the same time, because the screen recording software and game evaluation software were also opened at the same time during the review, some computer performance was consumed. If these effects are eliminated, the smoothness of the game itself should be higher.
In addition, in view of the limited performance of the X4-740 paired with the RX580, especially in terms of CPU, we have not evaluated some 3A game masterpieces released after 2020, such as Cyberpunk 2077, such as Final Fantasy 7 Remake, such as this year's popular Elden's Ring , etc. However, from a playability perspective, I think 1080p or 720p with low image quality should be playable, but the overall fps will not be too high. If you netizens want to see whether the platform of X4-740 plus RX580 can play the latest top 3A masterpieces, we will look for opportunities to conduct related reviews later.
