So let’s see how this impacts gaming performance as well as a few productivity workloads…
Performance in Civilization VI was already great and no extra performance was had when switching to NUMA.
Looking at app performance, we see a slight performance decline with POVRay, but nothing serious.
Blender also saw a slight decline in performance with the 1950X being about 4% slower using NUMA.
Last up we have the Corona test, in which both NUMA and UMA offered the same performance.
There’s not much to see here, so let’s move on to some consumption figures.
