Ryzen 7 2700X Vs Core I7 8700K 35 Game Benchmark Total War Warhammer Ii Watch Dogs 2 Ghost Recon Wildlands World Of Tanks

Total War Warhammer II is another game that’s far more GPU bound that it is CPU bound when using these high-end processors. As a result, there’s little to talk about here given both the 2700X and 8700K enabled the exact same performance.

The Ryzen 7 2700X is surprisingly competitive in Watch Dogs 2 delivering very similar frame time performance. The biggest performance deficit was seen at 720p where the 2700X was 8% slower for the average frame rate, but this margin was reduced to just 2% at 1080p.

Ghost Recon Wildlands provides GPU bound results at 1440p and 1080p while at 720p the 8700K was up to 9% faster, this is seen when looking at the frame time performance.

Last game test was World of Tanks and here the Core i7-8700K was considerably faster at 720p, providing up to 25% more frames. That said at 1080p that margin is reduced to 4% and then 2% at 1440p.
