Intel Core i7-7740X Skylake-X Processor Review

Discrete GPU Benchmarks

3DMark

So what about gaming performance? Straight away, we see a rock solid score at both stock and overclocked settings. Beating out all the Ryzen offerings, and keeping up with (but not beating) the 7700K. I must stress again, the 7700K was clocked 100Mhz higher, so the two are certainly comparable.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

Blazing a trail here, with Tomb Raider, although the 1800X did pull ahead, it is one of the more expensive Ryzen options.

Shadow of Mordor

Again, rock solid results here. We’re not breaking any records, but it’s about where it should be for the price.
