Benchmarks: 3DMark and VRMark
3DMark doesn't reveal any significant gains - these tests tend to be bound by the GPU - but why is the Core i9 off the pace in VRMark? At the time of writing we can only put this down to a lack of software maturity. In the interests of full disclosure, readers should note that the Core i9-7900X initially scored just 4,015 in the VRMark test and the result climbed to 10,191 courtesy of a new motherboard BIOS. There's clearly still work being done to optimse performance.
