Battlefield 4
Battlefield 4 is the latest installment in the Battlefield franchise, released in 2013. It is based on the Frostbite 3 engine, which is DirectX 11. In order to measure performance using this game, we walked our way through the first mission, measuring the number of frames per second three times using FRAPS. We ran this game at Full HD, setting overall image quality at “medium.”
The results below are expressed in frames per second (fps) and they are the mean between the three collected results.
On Battlefield 4, the FX-4300 was 19% faster than the A10-7870K and obtained the same performance of the rest of the CPUs included in this comparison.
Dirt Rally
Dirt Rally is an off-road racing game released in April 2015, using Ego engine. To measure performance using this game, we ran the performance test included in the game, in 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution and image quality configured as “medium” and MSAA off.
The results below are expressed in frames per second (fps).
In this game, the FX-4300 was 16% slower than the FX-6350, 23% slower than the FX-8350, 6% faster than the A10-7870K, and was 33% slower than the Core i3-6100.
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 quality options as “high”, antialiasing on, and Full HD resolution measuring three times the frame rate using FRAPS.
The results below are expressed in fps and they are the mean between the three collected results.
In this game, all CPUs performed the same way.
Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V, or simply GTA V, is an open-world action game released for PCs in April of 2015, using the RAGE engine. In order to measure the performance on this game, we ran the performance test of the game, measuring the frame rate with FRAPS. We ran GTA V at Full HD, with image quality set as “normal” and MSAA off.
The results below are expressed in frames per second.
On GTA V, the FX-4300 was 20% slower than the FX-6350, 28% slower than the FX-8350, was on a technical tie with the A10-7870K, and was 21% slower than the Core i3-6100.

Also on Rise of the Tomb Raider, the performance was the same on all CPUs.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an open-world RPG released in May of 2015 and based on the REDengine 3 engine. In order to measure the performance on this game, we walked around at the first scene of the game, measuring the frame rate with FRAPS three times. We ran the game at Full HD with image quality set to “medium.”
The results below are expressed in fps and they are the mean between the three collected results.
In this game, the performance was the same on all processors too.
