Synthetic Benchmarks
3DMark Firestrike
Straight away, the GT6 is showing its racing pedigree, hitting our 5th fastest score for 3DMark, making it the fastest mid-range motherboard in the Z370 range. When we overclocked, it moved to 7th place but still set a superb score of 23844.

Unigine Superposition 1080p Extreme
Unigine is a very GPU bound task, making it great for testing PCIe throughput. The GT6 scored a super quick 5547 at stock and 5515 while overclocked. Yes, the score dropped, but it’s all still within the ideal range we expected.

PCMark 10 Express
The new 8th Gen CPUs are no slouch when it comes to day-to-day work and multi-tasking. The GT6 scored strongly with 6101 at stock, putting it with similarly specification motherboards. Overclocking did provide a welcome boost though, hitting 6284 points.

WPrime 32M and 1024M
The WPrime scores are superb and easily competitive with the higher-end of the Z370 range. Of course, overclocking took the time from an already impressive 107.667 down to 102.021.

Cinebench R15
Cinebench scores don’t differ much for the Z370 motherboards, but with 1544 at stock and 1639, the GT6 is obviously competitive with anything else in the Z370 market.

Handbrake MP4 to MKV Conversion 4K
The same is true with Handbrake, it’s a very CPU bound task, and motherboard choice makes little difference on Z370. The GT6 scored right where I expected it to, hitting 58.9 at stock, and boosting to 60.9 while overclocked. That’s pretty good given it’s rendering a 4K file.
