With the current directX, firing draw-calls from the CPU is single-threaded. The performance boost mostly comes from using the cpu in parallel to fire draw-calls to the gpu.
Draw-calls are a performance killer. The new directX 12 technology raises the amount of possible draw-calls drastically.
This + some other nice features are going to raise the performance for all directX12 graphics card excessively. (that is - if you split your draw-calls to multiple threads)

? that would only make a difference if the GPU had more power. You could put 50 threads on a Pentium processor but an i7 would still crush it.

what you say is a completly wrong comparison and makes no sense.

the reason why we use multi-core CPUs instead of super-strong single core CPUs is because the Ghz of CPUs are not raising like they did years ago anymore. Instead multi-core CPUs are used. If you dont programm your application multi-threaded for your new i7, it will run as bad as years ago on a ~3Ghz 1 core processor. Its all about parallelism, cache, transistors, computing units and the likes today.
