AMD details recent Ryzen performance updates

The second update shows an even larger performance boost, which comes as part of ZBrush’ 4R8 update. This update improves Pixologic Light placement when using a real-time viewport, which offers an insane 204,772% performance boost.Â
This update only fixes a specific performance issue on ZBrush, but it is certainly a worthwhile update for Ryzen users. Now this operation happens in a mere 11ms, which is a tiny amount of time. For comparison, a 60FPS framerate offers one frame every 16.66 milliseconds.Â

These performance updates are only for specific titles, but it does show that developers are starting to take Ryzen optimisation seriously.Â
Back in April, AMD told us that they had shipped over 300 developer systems since Ryzen’s launch and plan to deliver over 1000 by the end of 2017, clearly planning to get developers to optimise their products for Ryzen and create stronger ties to the software development industry.Â
This is still very early days for Ryzen, but it is clear that AMD is taking software development seriously with this release, especially given Ryzen’s positions in the desktop, server and eventually mobile markets.Â
