Ashes of the Singularity, Assassin's Creed Origins, Battlefield i

Kickstarting our game benchmarks is Ashes of the Benchmark itself, a favorite for testing CPU performance. Starting with loftier quality settings at 1080p using a GTX 1080 Ti we see that the 5820K is very respectable, roughly matching the highly clocked 7700K. That said, information technology was up to 16% slower than the 8700K. Overclocking helped close the gap and now it's merely the i% low figure where the higher clocked 8700K holds an advantage.

Going crazy with the quality settings closes the gap right up and at present the overclocked 5820K is on par with the test of the eighth gen Core processors due to a heavy GPU bottleneck. That said, at stock settings, the 1% depression figure for the lesser-clocked 5820K did drop downward to just 69 fps.

Then at 1440p every bit expected the GPU clogging grows even more extreme and at present even the stock 5820K doesn't trail that far backside for the 1% low result.

Assassin'southward Creed Origins is another CPU-enervating game simply out of the box the 5820K does reasonably well despite beingness much slower than the 7700K and all 8th gen series processors. That said, overclocking additional the average frame rate by xvi%. This placed the overclocked 5820K almost on par with the Core i5-8400 for the average frame charge per unit just still slower for the minimum frame charge per unit issue.

Increasing the quality preset to ultra high closes the margin and now the overclocked 5820K is simply vii% slower than the fastest CPUs tested when comparing the minimum frame charge per unit result.

The results remains much the same fifty-fifty at 1440p and while the overclocked 5820K matched the overclocked 4770K and the 7700K, it did trail the 8700K. Still overall potent functioning from the crumbling half dozen-core CPU.

Using the medium quality preset at 1080p in Battleground 1 really gives the GTX 1080 Ti room to jiff. Overclocking the 5820K boosted the average frame rate past 13% and this placed it on par with the stock 7700K, a decent result and it meant we saw frame rates in excess of 120fps at all times.

With the ultra preset enabled, the overclocked 5820K is able to roughly match the Core i5-8600K and really only slips backside slightly for the ane% low result.

Then nosotros run across something quite interesting when moving to 1440p. Here the overclocked 5820K falls behind the 4770K and Core i5-8400 when comparison the average frame rate, though the minimum is very strong. Hither nosotros're just 10% slower than the overclocked 8700K but nosotros're besides quite GPU bound.
