The two X99 boards on show are specifically aimed at gamers, and herein lies a dilemma. Most modern titles tend not to benefit from the extra cores or quad-channel memory, and at a 4K UHD resolution, the X99 test platforms are practically identical to the much cheaper Z170 in 3DMark, Dirt Rally and Rise of the Tomb Raider.
