Even with the highest IPC and clocks in the market, when averaged across all games, the two configurations of the i9-13900K post a difference of just 0.9% in favor of the stock configuration with the E-cores enabled. And much like 1440p, there are outliers to make the case for each setup-Prey, Metro Exodus, GreedFall, and Far Cry 5 each post significant 8-10% performance gains with the E-cores being disabled whereas Warhammer III, Spider-Man Remastered, Far Cry 6, Dota 2, and Civilization VI, prefer the E-cores left untouched. In between these two extremes, the majority of games still show too insignificant a variation, and we end up with a stalemate between the two configurations. If we look through all the games we can divide them into several groups. There's those games that really show no differences, E-Cores enabled or not (AC: Valhalla, Days Gone, DOOM Eternal, Monster Hunter, Witcher 3). The next group of games are titles that always run better with E-Cores enabled (Age of Empires, Dota 2). We also have games that run better with E-Cores disabled, but only as long as they are CPU limited (Far Cry 5, Metro Exodus). The opposite behavior is observed, too, of course. Titles such as Far Cry 6 and Divinity Original Sin 2 run better with E-Cores enabled, while CPU limited, but as soon as they are GPU limited, there is only marginal difference. The biggest takeaway from this article is that you really shouldn't worry about the E-Cores.
