Updating CPU Results
🕑 Added 2019-05-21 00:08:13 +0000 UTC
I'm about to start updating all my CPU results, applications and games. For the game benchmarks we have one of two options.
A: Test using Ultra Quality (high where it makes sense) and 1080p and 1440p
B: Test at 1080p using ultra/high along with a medium preset.

while majority are at 1080p, the next (next) highest is 1440p resolution which I think will be the next step 1080p users will eventually move into.

I think it's important to do testing at ultra to know what the worst case scenario would be in terms of CPU/GPU performance, however it would be nice to have testing on a couple games here and there at medium/high quality to show scaling, and possibly anything not experienced on ultra such as stuttering. As someone who prefers high refreshrates but isn't willing to spend big money on a high end gpu, I normally play on medium/low 1080p and enjoy 100+ fps. Each gamer is different. My logic is that you should appeal to a mass audience, but realize also a majority of your audience is enthusiast, so you're going to get mixed results.
