Intel Core i7-2600K Processor (8M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz) Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested
Intel Core i7-2600K Processor (8M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz) has been stress-tested in 2 distinct GPU pairings from 6 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 60/100 (grade C). The strongest measured pairing is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 at 64/100; the weakest is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti at 56/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 3.9% with thermal health around 92/100.
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.

Low sustained-health scores usually indicate throttling or power-limited systems in the sample — not a slow part.
