The Intel Core i7-7700K (91W) Review: The New Out-of-the-box Performance Champion
by Ian Cutress on January 3, 2017 12:02 PM ESTTotal War: Attila
The Total War franchise moves on to Attila, another The Creative Assembly development, and is a stand-alone strategy title set in 395AD where the main story line lets the gamer take control of the leader of the Huns in order to conquer parts of the world. Graphically the game can render hundreds/thousands of units on screen at once, all with their individual actions and can put some of the big cards to task.
For low end graphics, we test at 720p with performance settings, recording the average frame rate. With mid and high range graphics, we test at 1080p with the quality setting. In both circumstances, unlimited video memory is enabled and the in-game scripted benchmark is used.

I meant to say "tweaking" not tasking.dgingeri - Thursday, January 26, 2017 - link
So, what happened to the article "Calculating Generational IPC Changes from Sandy Bridge to Kaby Lake"? I'd really like to see that. I know that upgrading from my 4790k (at 4.8GHz) is not going to be cost effective, but I'd like to see at which point it becomes cost effective.Curley - Sunday, January 29, 2017 - link
I still haven't seen a significant performance improvement over my Core i7 990 Extreme @ 4.4GHZ to warrant an upgrade. Yes my neighbor's Core i7 4790K starts faster but the 990x still meets or beats it in most benchmarks and games.maincpa77 - Friday, May 12, 2017 - link
The best line is the first line: "The Intel Core i7-7700K is what happens when a chip company stops trying and get GTA 5 hack on http://gta5hack2017.com
