"The performance however is still down to physical core count, not just "brand". a 4 core AMD will still be outperformed by a 4 core intel."

Thats just it, today people compare a 4core intel against a 8core AMD cpu.
Because you dont need the extra 4 cores from intel side, you have Hyper threading, and stronger single core performance.

Thats how things work today.

and most of the time:  4core intel > 8 core amd cpu.


However thats not how things will work when DX12 comes out.

You will probably see alot of 4 core Intel cpus get beat by the 8core amd versions, you kinda expected to be weaker than the 4core intel ones.
