Intel Core i7-6700K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.20 GHz) Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested
Intel Core i7-6700K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.20 GHz) has been stress-tested in 10 distinct GPU pairings from 50 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 68.1/100 (grade B). The strongest measured pairing is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 at 77/100; the weakest is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB at 65/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 0.2% with thermal health around 95/100.
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.
