DinoPC Primal GT0 System Review (FX8320/RX480)

For idle power draw, a reading was taken after having Windows open on the desktop for 30 minutes. A reading under load was taken while Prime95 and 3DMark Fire Strike ran simultaneously.

These figures are relatively high – especially the idle power draw of 149W. This would be because of the FX-8320 – it has a 125W TDP and is based on a 32nm fabrication process, which is now very out-dated.

Still, the 650W Corsair PSU is more than able to handle it – even under load the peak power draw is just 70% of the Corsair's rated limit.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

  1. Why are there no FPS results shown for the other systems?

    I know FX-8320 is kinda dated cpu and architecture, but that idle load power is way off the normal scale, usually these cpu’s idle at less than 100W total system draw.

    Also the GTAV results seem weird as fuck, I’ve seen even FX-6300 get better FPS than that, let alone any of the 8 core FX cpus. So may that was a faulty unit?
