Gaming PC build GeForce GTX 1070M, Core i7-6700HQ 4-Core 2.6GHz, 16GB performance review

A PC gaming machine that puts together a Core i7-6700HQ 4-Core 2.6GHz processor, a GeForce GTX 1070M GPU and 16GB system memory will be able to play 498 games from the top 1000 recommended requirements. The PC could increase the number of games it can run at recommended requirements to 894 if it upgraded its bottleneck component, the Core i7-6700HQ 4-Core 2.6GHz.

Lets see how well a gaming PC with these components performs on one of todays more popular games, Halo: Reach. To summarise, with this graphics card you do not need concern yourself too much regarding Halo: Reach frame rates. Because Ultra graphics setting can be turned on across all resolutions up to 4K quite comfortably.We are seeing 4K getting 82 FPS, 1440p will get 137 frame rate and if you are interested then 1080p gaming can get 180 FPS. Based around the GeForce GTX 1070M launch price, we calculate the cost per frame at different resolutions. 1080p Ultra frames will cost $0, 1440p frames cost $0 each and then the 4K costs $0 per frame.

2nd most popular game: Red Dead Redemption 2 - To summarise, we feel that with the GeForce GTX 1070M you can enjoy Red Dead Redemption 2 at 1440p resolution pretty comfortably. The graphics card is going to run smoother on High 1440p rather than Ultra, where it would be getting 47 FPS. But when run on 1440p High it would get 66 FPS, and at Medium 98 FPS and then on Low it would return 125 FPS. The GeForce GTX 1070M would also be good at 1080p Ultra, getting 62 FPS.

3rd most popular game: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - To summarise, we feel that with the GeForce GTX 1070M you can enjoy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare at 1440p resolution pretty comfortably. The graphics card is going to run smoother on High 1440p rather than Ultra, where it would be getting 44 FPS. But when run on 1440p High it would get 62 FPS, and at Medium 92 FPS and then on Low it would return 117 FPS. The GeForce GTX 1070M would also be good at 1080p Ultra, getting 58 FPS.
