Synthetic Benchmarks


The Ryzen 7 2700X is no slouch and manages to set some great benchmarks for X470. Unfortunately, the Taichi is a little behind the competition for X470 in 3DMark, but not by a lot, and still ahead of X370 a bit too. Uningine favoured better, scoring 5593, one of our highest scores there, and it was nearly identical to other X470 boards for PCMark 10. Where the Taichi did pull ahead was Handbrake, edging out a lead at 59.9 FPS and every frame adds up when your transcoding 4K video.

However, once we overclocked the CPU, the Taichi turned the tables on the competition, setting a 3DMark score of 21452, putting it a full 400 points ahead of its nearest X470 rival. Of course, things get more impressive with our Unigine score hitting 5598, the highest score we’ve ever had for that benchmark by quite a large margin. Even the PCMark score lept from 5255 to 5244.

All three X470 motherboards posted remarkably similar Cinebench scores and times in WPrime while overclocked too, all hitting around 91.5 seconds, which is pretty darn fast for any motherboard and CPU combo. Only the X299 and X399 motherboards really did much better. Finally, the Handbrake score hit 63 FPS, our third highest score, and the highest for any consumer level CPU to date too, actually matching what we got with Threadripper.
