Sucks? No. I wouldn’t say that at all. I have seen a Ford Focus beat a Toyota Supra before, only because the Focus kills it in speed retained in turns. There for, with your logic, Toyota Supras “suck”.https://.com/watch?v=L6MHjQqvGX0In the gaming world, we already knew that the intel setup would beat the Ryzen setup. That was something we walked into 100% knowing before the actual release of the Zen series. The threadripper beats Intels “latest” by a fair margin in respects to running applications, compression, video decoding (anything CPU based thats NOT required to have a GPU assist). For Unreal, i would use Intel. For using the computer besides Unreal, AMD. Who needs to let the CPU worry about GPU when you have a GPU specific for games? The benchmarks are testing graphics ability on the CPU, not “how well does the CPU perform with a 1080Ti attached to it”.

Except building lighting or compiling the engine are purely CPU-based, and threadripper is slower at both of them.
