Cyberpunk is a brutal test for any system, but again, the B760I holds up remarkably well. 99 FPS 1% lows and 131 FPS average show this is a seriously competent gaming motherboard, the third fastest for this game, and that’s against some seriously expensive competition.
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.
Not as strong in Horizon, but this game can be very picky with motherboards as you can see. Still, the 1% lows were good, and average performance was competitive.
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.
Spider-man was much the same, with competitive average FPS performance, but again, strong 1% lows, which is the one that really matters, as low scores here load to stutters.
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.
It struggled a little more in Flight Simulator, but not by much, most likely due to the way this game puts more strain on storage than others too, but still, the results are perfectly acceptable.
Would love it if you could check compatibility with the Big Shuriken 3 cooler….
