Smurf Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 45 minutes ago, indario said: Why not? That's not what RAM does. Faster RAM will have little to no gains for FM. It's processor that governs a lot. I spoke to someone and this is the jist of what he and I came to: For how the game uses threads - it will create as many threads for playing matches and shortlisting as you have cores (including hyperthreads). But the performance you see varies on the setup for example with matches - Quick Matches for instance (so for loaded but non-managed in leagues) it's are so fast anyway it gets to the point where it doesn't make that much more difference having more cores. If you use detail level to set more stuff to full match you'll start seeing betters gains for more cores, but of course will still be slower than by just not having the league loaded, or having it at a low detail level. Similar sort of thing with shortlisting the more / leagues players you have loaded the more benefits you can potentially see with more cores, however this is probably more than offset by the general slowdown from having more stuff loading as there's still a large portion of the game which is single threaded. In regards to best processors, as a general guide we tend to suggest using the following comparison site as a good gauge of the performance capabilities - https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Processors-Benchmark-List.2436.0.html Basic rule of thumb is the higher it is on the list, the better it is. You can edit it to show processors for desktops and also those that are considered 'archived' via the restriction options. Hope some of this is of use.

Considering a 5600X would still cost $150 more here, 12400 still represents good value especially in FM. Will be interesting to see how the 12th gen i3 CPUs compete. 12100F is only $179 in Aus compared to $299 for the 12400, and will still hit 4.3 GHz over 4 cores/8 threads.

Yeah you're looking at it the right way really, it's all about performance per $ / £ which is quite hard to do as you have to factor in RAM and motherboards etc Shame there isn't an unlocked overclockable 12th Gen i3 really.

Room temp was around 64F (17-18C) *Benchmark D note: The game made it to Saturday by the 11:01 mark, but by about the 15:15 mark the temps hit my thermal limit of 87C and so the CPU backed off to running just 2 cores while the other 6 went to the base clock for about a minute; temps dropped about 20 degrees. By about 16:20 all the cores were active again and temps were climbing. Temps climbed to about 85C twice more before Saturday ended at the 23:45 mark.

DarJ Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 @OVO KabsI think I understand why it does that. I looked back at the image you posted earlier of quick CPU and you can see that the TDP is only 15W so even if the processor is capable of more it is power limited to just 15 W because the chassis won't be able to handle cooling. The frequency of 4GHz can be achieved at around 40W or more. To keep it simple the processor is not receiving enough power to go that fast and it was done by design. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
