Review: Asus ROG Strix X99 Gaming

Benchmarks: CPU

CPU performance is right in line with expectations. Core i7-6700K on a Z170 platform still rules the roost in the single-threaded PiFast test on account of its 4.2GHz peak frequency, but X99 with a 20-thread Core i7-6950X comes into its own in the multi-threaded benchmarks.
