AMD Ryzen 3 1300X & 1200 Performance Review

Battlefield 1

Battlefield 1 will likely become known as one of the most popular multiplayer games around but it also happens to be one of the best looking titles around. It also happens to be extremely well optimized with even the lowest end cards having the ability to run at high detail levels.

In this benchmark we use a runthough of The Runner level after the dreadnought barrage is complete and you need to storm the beach. This area includes all of the game’s hallmarks in one condensed area with fire, explosions, debris and numerous other elements layered over one another for some spectacular visual effects.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

The latest iteration in the COD series may not drag out niceties like DX12 or particularly unique playing styles but it nonetheless is a great looking game that is quite popular.

This benchmark takes place during the campaign’s Operation Port Armor wherein we run through a sequence combining various indoor and outdoor elements along with some combat.

Ryzen just can’t seem to catch much of a break in games and despite being a game that was heavily sponsored by AMD Battlefield 1 shows the Ryzen 3 processors very close to the back of the chart. Here the i3-7300 is more than 10% faster on average than the 1300X and the i3-7100 in nearly 15% faster than the 1200.

Call of Duty on the other hand exhibits a game engine framerate cap so pretty much all of the processors perform equally. So let’s move on.
