Feedback on our Ryzen 7 reviews highlighted that many users are interested in the performance comparisons between CPUs when partnered with a sensible graphics solution for the given price point. 1440P resolution testing was also shown to be in strong demand.
We have taken that feedback on board and have added test data for the Ryzen 5 and Core i5 Kaby Lake CPUs running with a GTX 1070 8GB Founder's Edition graphics card and a 1440P gaming resolution. We feel that the GTX 1070 currently hits a strong sweet-spot for graphics performance and cost to many Ryzen 5 buyers and also 1440P gamers.
The testing was conducted with the CPUs overclocked to their highest levels (4.0GHz for the Ryzen 5 1600X, 3.9GHz for the Ryzen 5 1500X, 4.9GHz for the i5-7600K, and stock 3.0-3.5GHz for the locked i5-7400) in order to show how a user can squeeze out 1440P gaming performance from their CPU.
Gears of War 4
We run the built-in benchmark using a 2560×1440 resolution and the same settings as the 1080p and 4K tests that can be found on other pages (Ultra quality preset, Async Compute enabled).
Game version 9.8.0.2 used for current testing (earlier version used for previous testing).
Grand Theft Auto V
We run the built-in benchmark using a 2560×1440 resolution and the same settings as the 1080p and 4K tests that can be found on other pages (generally Maximum quality settings including Advanced Graphics). VRAM usage at 1440P, according to the built-in GTA V counter, is 3514MB.
The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt
We run our custom 107-second benchmark in a densely-populated town area using a 2560×1440 resolution and the same settings as the 1080p and 4K tests that can be found on other pages (Maximum quality, Nvidia settings disabled).
1440P gaming performance with a GTX 1070 is still stronger on the Core i5-7400 than on Ryzen 5 1500X in Gears of War 4 and GTA V. The performance deficits for Ryzen 5’s quad-core part are small but they are also measurable.
The Witcher 3, by contrast, does not seem to mind which CPU it uses to power the GTX 1070 and a 1440P resolution.
eso no sirve
AMD are back in the game
Great to see you back AMD – Thanks for Ryzen!
Google is paying 97$ per hour! Work for few hours and have longer with friends & family! !mj149d:

“Grand Theft Auto V favours Intel hardware, despite its desire for high thread counts and core frequencies” With the 7700K beating the 6800K and Ryzen bottoming its charts, that game certainly does not favor high thread counts. Its a DX11 POS.
Any DX12 game should be tested with a Radeon GPU. It is quite clear by now that nVidia’s DX12 implementation fails to parallelize rendering workload properly. I’d even go as far as to say i beleive they may have built in some intel only optimizations (think GenuineIntel checks or such racket).
DX12 is Radeon territory. If you want to eliminate GPU Bottlenecks, use Fury X at 1080p. Or two 480s in CF. Gives much more representative results.
El i5 7400 es genial!!
