Back when Ryzen launched, I wanted to make some “quick” benchmarks, mostly to check out how good the Ryzen 1700 is vs my 5820k when streaming Dota tournaments.

Turns out “quick” didn’t quite cut it so here’s what you can expect, very slightly beyond the schedule:

Comparison of the different render options (DX9 vs DX9ex vs DX11 vs Vulkan vs OpenGL) Dota2’s core scaling with Hyper Threading on and off Dota2 performance with different streaming settings (Ryzen 1700 vs Ryzen 1600 vs 5820k vs 4790k)

If you would like to read more about my benchmarking methodology, please read my post here. All the following numbers are on 1080p.
