Benchmarks Find Intel Core i7-7700K Better Than i7-7800X for Gaming

This is just an example. I don't know if other titles are utilizing 100% of the CPU. I bet there are and probably with time more will come out.
I could see it. 70% was there not all the time but it was there. You wanted an example and here it is.
It will last 3 years or even more. My 3770k is still running great but in games it is a bottleneck though you can still play. If 7700k becomes a bottleneck which i believe it will you would still play games with decent FPS but the bottleneck is there and this game shows it. With Volta coming out and i'm sure you believe it will be faster than 1080 Ti the bottleneck will be more apparent than now. Wouldn't you agree? besides more FPS and higher res will also impact CPU utilization. Volta comes out next year (if I'm correct). Look at the utilization difference in BF1 with the 1080 vs 1080Ti. from 70(maximum that i have noticed) to a 100. Since you didn't see the 70 claiming it was less than that then just imagine the 7700k CPU utilization in that game when Volta comes out being faster than 1080 Ti. Remember that's just one title example. BF1 is not that much CPU intensive but higher resolutions(1440p is more common now) and higher FPS counts (everybody wants 144Hz monitors) will impact CPU's pretty much in that game. There are plenty games that would use all the 7700k's resources and max the utilization out. With Volta which will be faster is like nothing. Keep in mind that games are also becoming more and more demanding.
BTW I'd like to look at the CPU utilization level with 7820X in that game. couldn't find one yet.
Your whole post is a bunch of nonsense. Sorry dude, try again. Your 3770k is bottleneck in games?? LOL, the most stupid thing I've read in years. :laugh::laugh:
Oh yeah, is a bottleneck if you consider that 150fps (3770k) vs 155fps (7700k) to be bottleneck.
Watch the video above more carefully. The only thing that is the bottleneck in that game is the GPU who is on average at 95% most of the time, while the CPU is 55%.
Please do tell again how the CPUs are a bottleneck in games...:nutkick::shadedshu:

hmm that's pretty interesting. you got some nerve man :) keep it up. when the hell did you see 3770k being 5 FPS behind 7700k? who's taking nonsense here? You can see the utilization of the CPU 100% and FPS drop for a pretty short time but it's there. Nonsense man you made day with that statement clean up your head with crap.

Just to add.
Here's some benchmarks.
and here another real time.
5 fps difference = joke of the year bro.
Add 2k/4k gaming into that equation and let me know what you think of the difference between the two CPU's

Its a blip. its not like it was pegged there... hell it wasn't close most of the time and ran 50-70%...

So, let's think who is trying to make bottlenecks out of blips...

7700K will last one year... you made OUR day with that statement. Clean up your head man! :)

last one year? It will last more year but it will become a bottleneck though you can still use it just as i'm using my 3770k and it is still decent. You still will be able to play with that CPU with nice FPS just as I'm playing with my 3770k. Game will drop FPS just as it is shown on in BF1. FPS does drop.
 
That is EXACTLY what you said bud... we are just responding.
Yeah it's what i did for the second time. And you still didn't get it. Bummer.
 
BF1 does require more than 4 threads, I'll say that much. Gaming with my 6800k at 4.0GHz was much better in BF1 than it was with my old 2500k at 4.5GHz. Just overall much smoother.

Whether it needs more than 8 threads though, I'm not sure.
 
Bummer for your word choice. Say what you mean, and mean what you say!!!
Well i did but you rather pull expressions instead reading the post. Whatever man I'm not going to argue with you. That's just what i have noticed and what i think will happen. 7700k is going to be a bottleneck in games(maybe not all of them at once) within a year especially with more powerful GPU's coming next year and that's on the BF1 example. Anyway you can still play using 7700k with decent FPS and stick to this CPU for a longer time.

Decent FPS? It's a lot better than decent.

Expressions? I took it literally. Glad you clarified from your original statement. Since, it will last longer than a year.

What he meant was... he is going to start rendering movies and streaming stuff while he games next year.
