Intel Core i7-7700 Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.20 GHz) Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested

Intel Core i7-7700 Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.20 GHz) has been stress-tested in 13 distinct GPU pairings from 81 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 65.8/100 (grade B). The strongest measured pairing is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 at 76.5/100; the weakest is Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 at 58/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 0.1% 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.
