Intel Core i3-8100 Processor (6M Cache, 3.60 GHz) Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested

Intel Core i3-8100 Processor (6M Cache, 3.60 GHz) has been stress-tested in 2 distinct GPU pairings from 14 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 60.4/100 (grade C). The strongest measured pairing is Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 at 61/100; the weakest is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti at 59/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 0.2% with thermal health around 93/100.

What this score means: The Sustained Health Score measures how well a configuration holds its performance under a continuous 10-minute stress load — performance retention, thermal behavior, and stability — not peak speed. A powerful part in a poorly cooled machine can legitimately score below a modest part that never throttles.
