Intel Core i7 2700k Flagship Showdown Review

3DMark 11

3DMark 11 is the latest offering from Futuremark, taking full advantage of DirectX 11 by utilising tessellation features and volumetric lighting. It takes your graphics and CPU hardware to the edge to simulate the most extreme conditions whilst working as a stand point to compare results with other users online.

3DMark 11 saw us receiving similar results to that of the 2600k as expected and still steaming miles ahead of the FX-8150 from AMD.

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Batman: Arkham Asylum is an action-adventure stealth game that uses the Unreal Engine 3. It relies heavily on nVidia’s PhsyX engine to give improved physics throughout if available. and uses lots of textures and polygons to build the character.

The i7 series processors seemed to give a slight edge over the FX-8150, but no difference was seen between the 2600k and 2700k.

Dirt 3

Dirt 3 was released in May 2011 and is the third in the Dirt series offering a complete overhaul in terms of graphics for the DirectX 11 platform which extreme lighting effects and reflections as well as showcasing fast moving graphics and using in game physics to bring the most extreme quality in terms of video rendering.

Dirt 3 actually saw the AMD come out on top at stock and overclocked. A slight increase was seen between the 2600k and 2700k due to the extra 100MHz increase, but nothing that could warrant getting one over the other.

    1. That's correct, to compare to the other processors (fx-8150) we had to find a common ground that they could all clock to. That was 4.6GHz. We then also show the MAX overclock of the chip which is 5.3GHz, but the FX 8150 can't do this under our condition.
