Ryzen 2700X users?
Anyone out there using the above CPU for this game. I am currently using a i5 3570K with a GTX 1070 and 16gb RAM and was wondering if this would give me better performance. I was waiting for the new 9th Gen Intels, but i refuse to pay their ridiculous prices. Thanks

Well, other than having to change the mobo and RAM, you should see some gains in performance considering how much of a leap in technology between the two.

I wouldn't be able to use anything newer than a 6700k anyway because I refuse to use W10 atm, and Microsoft keeps giving me reasons to avoid the OS still.

https://versus.com/en/amd-ryzen-7-2700x-vs-intel-core-i5-3570k, bare in mind its a new mobo and ram, Intel cpus tend to be less problematic when it comes to ram which is some thing to think about, what mobo are you using atm.

You're wondering if a 6 year newer and higher tier CPU will give you better preformance? Are you trolling?

Im running the Ryzen 2700X 32 gig ram GTX1080 and it runs at around 10% CPU usage on all the settings on as high as they go I run in 1920x1080 on a 32" Acer curved screen at 60 Hz so as expected i get 60 FPS im liquid cooled too with a corsair 270mm radiator and it sits around 36 degees Celcius so over all it runs seemlessly with no lag moments

It's a valid question. ATS/ETS2 are based on an older DX9 engine, so don't take much advantage of newer CPUs and more cores. The only real difference comes from single-core IPC (instructions per clock) and raw clock speed, both of which are only slightly better on the 2700X than the i5.

I upgraded from an i7 4770K to a Ryzen 1800X early last year and there was no noticeable improvement in ATS/ETS2. 6 - 7 of the eight cores seem to spend most of their time idle while running the game.

I have 2700X.

Euro truck and american Truck simulator only use 1 core for now. The ryzen 2700X performance one core is like a intel 6700K aprox but this game dont use the others 7 cores and 15 trheads of the 2700X for now.

Resume with 2700X u have a little bit more performance because the performance for mhz is best than 3570. But your cpu with 4 core dont use all your power in this games for now.

Maybe when they update the engine in dx11/12 and Vulkan the engine work with more cores.

sorry for my awesome BAD english.

I also want to add as someone did mention DX9 in a previous post.

ETS2/ATS will be updated to DX11(if I read into things properly) hopefully sometime next year. Steam is dropping support for Vista/XP at the end of the year as those two OS's are no longer supported by Micosoft.
