We used a 1920×1080 resolution and the Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor built-in benchmark set to ‘Ultra’ quality.
Tomb Raider
We used a 1920×1080 resolution and the Tomb Raider built-in benchmark set to maximum quality, with TressFX disabled.
The Z170X-Gaming 7 motherboard is a solid choice for gamers. We did not record any noticeable performance dips that would be representative of lessened gaming performance in comparison to other Z170 boards.
