Weirdly the gaming performance lags behind a little bit in some of our benchmarks, it’s not that it’s bad, it most certainly is not, but it’s clear that the larger motherboards have an advantage in gaming, which typically taxes storage, memory, CPU and GPU together unlike most benchmarks that focus on one or two aspects at a time.
Horizon Zero Dawn
Experience Aloy’s entire legendary quest to unravel the mysteries of a world ruled by deadly Machines. An outcast from her tribe, the young hunter fights to uncover her past, discover her destiny… and stop a catastrophic threat to the future.
Unleash devastating, tactical attacks against unique Machines and rival tribes as you explore an open world teeming with wildlife and danger. Horizon Zero Dawn is a multi-award-winning action role-playing game – and this Complete Edition for PC includes the huge expansion The Frozen Wilds, featuring new lands, skills, weapons and Machines.
Available now on Steam.
174 FPS average is the lowerest here, but the 1% lows are strong and not too far off the pace of the big boys, but again, if FPS if your only goal, mini-ITX seems to have pros and cons.
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered
Developed by Insomniac Games in collaboration with Marvel, and optimized for PC by Nixxes Software, Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered on PC introduces an experienced Peter Parker who’s fighting big crime and iconic villains in Marvel’s New York. At the same time, he’s struggling to balance his chaotic personal life and career while the fate of Marvel’s New York rests upon his shoulders.
Available now on Steam.
Of course, flipping all that on its head, it then delivered some killer performance in Spiderman… So I guess there’s some give and take here.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
The Microsoft Flight Simulator Game of the Year (GOTY) Edition celebrates all the positive feedback, reviews and awards garnered, but it is also a “Thank You” to our fans – new and old – that have made Microsoft Flight Simulator such a phenomenon. Best of all, the Microsoft Flight Simulator Game of the Year Edition will be available as a free update for existing players on PC.
Available now on Steam.
Again good performance here, and once again I’m happy to see those strong 1% lows, as that will help with a smoother gaming experience vs just having a high frame rate.
