Synthetic Benchmarks
3DMark Firestrike
In 3DMark the N7 is off to a good start, it’s not quite the fastest we’ve tested scoring 22143, but it’s competitive with other Z370 motherboards. However, overclocking moved it up the charts a fair bit, scoring a more respectable 23855.

Unigine Superposition 1080p Extreme
The PCIe throughput is looking healthy and there are no issues here at stock and overclocked values.

Overclocked
PCMark 10 Express
Again, a score of 5984 at stock and 6582 overclocked aren’t the fastest. However, it’s certainly competitive with many other Z370 motherboards, and about where we expected the N7 to performance.

Overclocked
WPrime 32M and 1024M
The same is true here, with the N7 scoring strong and somewhat in the middle of other Z370 motherboards. Overclocking did cut the time down quite nicely though, and the N7 has no issues being pushed to 5 GHz.
Stock
Overclocked
Cinebench R15
Again, another perfectly average score, and that’s no bad thing given it’s priced somewhere in the middle for Z370 motherboards.

Overclocked
Handbrake MP4 to MKV Conversion 4K
A lot more competitive here, although this task is mostly CPU bound. Either way, heavy CPU loads even while overclocked didn’t cause any issues or slowdown for the N7.
