new CPU for X4, which kind?

Post by Hasenpfote » Fri, 9. Apr 21, 20:17

I'm preparing to buya new machine to play X4, the question is now, which kind of CPU performs best with X4.

Does the game runs smoother with 12 cores over 8 cores, or is the strength of single cores better than the number of all cores?

Hardware recommendations belong in Off Topic so I've moved this over. :)

Single core performance is more important than number of cores for X4.

Correct me if I am wrong, but something like a I5 10600k should allready deliver pretty good performance for the comparetivly low price as it has a high base clock even though it only has 6 cores.

Look at 1% lows , all core boost speed (can be changed) not the same as max boost or short term boost speed. There should be youtube videos with stats displayed. Gamers Nexus on youtube might have game stats. You might want to look at the cpus tdp due to possible cooling concerns.Higher tdp usually equals more heat produced and more cooling needed or thermal throttling. .

Something like a AMD 5600X/5800X will be perfect. I use 3900X and works great however looking to exchange to 5800X
