More concerning to many of you was that we only benchmarked using a Pascal-based Titan X graphics card.
Gaming Benchmarks
First up is Battlefield 1 and we have a lot going on here.
This is confirmed by the Core i5-7400’s performance boost of 31% when equipped with the 1070.

Instead, I want to establish a baseline and then explore overclocking performance separately.
The margins certainly aren’t noteworthy but compared to Battlefield 1 there is a distinct difference here.
When using the GTX 1060, performance is similar regardless of the CPU used.
It’s a similar story with the GTX 1070, well almost.
That said, this is the end of the road for the i5-7400.
Installing the GTX 1080 basically produced the exact same results.
