Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. AMD FX 8370 versus Intel Core i7 5960X . Let's check out the CPU performance in this game to see what 5 years of Intel engineering gets us over our beloved FX 8000 processors.
Guru3D article tackled the topic. Check out their article for analysis of CPU and GPU performance in this title.

Things start off pretty much dead even to me. This test is with an AMD video card under DX11; the supposed kryptonite for AMD performance metrics. I doubt anyone can tell the difference between the FX-8370 and i7-5960X in this game. The higher the resolution the more sameness each processor exhibits.
Next up is the venerable GTX 1070. Again if you can tell the difference in a $200 vs a $1,200 processor then I have some oceanfront property in Indiana, USA to sell you. Indiana is in the middle of the USA for people outside the USA.
For the GeForce GTX 1070 we see very similar behavior tiny bit of a perf drop for the AMD processor, but trivial at best. Again no worries here, the 200 USD processor plays just as well as the 1200 USD one does.
Another new release; another game where 5 year old tech is just as good as today's technology. David vs Goliath matchup. Guess we need some Kaby Lake reviews to have a reason to upgrade?
