Dying Light
Dying Light is an open-world horror game launched in January 2015, using the Chrome Engine 6. We tested the performance at this game with all quality options at minimum and 1280 x 720 resolution, measuring three times the framerate using FRAPS.
The results below are expressed in frames per second (fps) and they are the mean between the three collected results.
In this game, the performance with dual-channel on the AMD processor was 89% higher than with single-channel. ON the Intel CPU, the gain was of 34%.
