Gaming Performance

The i9-9900K is no slouch when paired with our GTX 1080 Ti, and even faster when paired with the ASUS RoG Maximus XI Formula. It scored an impressive 205.42 FPS in Rise of the Tomb Raider, putting it in fourth place. In Deus Ex, it slaughtered the competition with a stunning 161 FPS, our highest score ever, and enough to put it almost 30 FPS ahead of the slowest Z390 motherboard! The good figures kept rolling in to, with 126.12 minimum in Ghost Recon, our 2nd highest score there, and 139.79 average FPS, our 3rd highest score. Meanwhile, 152 FPS in Far Cry, although the stubborn Z370 still holds the top spots there.
