Cyberpunk 2077

The relationships you forge and the choices you make will shape the story and the world around you. Legends are made here. What will yours be?
Available now on Steam.
In Cyberpunk, the WiFi D4 actually delivered pretty competitive results, not the fastest, not the slowest Z790 motherboard, but actually let’s be honest, none of these motherboards are giving “slow performance” really. 90 FPS 1% lows is also a great result to see.
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.
Horizon Zero Dawn managed a very respectable 124 FPS, which is on the highest side for what we’ve seen as this game can vary quite a lot from one motherboard to another, and 130 FPS 1% lows was really impressive too.
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.
A lot lower on Spider-Man, but as you can see, this game drops a few FPS on all the DDR4 motherboards, but really, it’s still a few FPS faster than the other DRR4 motherboards, which is certainly great to see.
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.
I actually thought this would be the one that game would trip it up the most, but again, its performance is really high, hitting 100 FPS average and 73 FPS 1% lows, putting it up there with many of the best motherboards on the market.
