Measured comparison

Fragz' verdict

The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus comes out on top in this CPU comparison, leading the Ryzen 7 7700 by a solid 25.3% in CPU score. However, with only one verified run for each chip, the sample size is thin, so take these results as an early look. The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus flexes its muscle with 24 cores and 24 threads, delivering a strong 12.7 Gop/s in integer multi-threaded operations, making it a powerhouse for heavy background tasks or compilation. On the flip side, the Ryzen 7 7700 shows a slight edge in single-thread performance at 0.71 Gop/s and achieved higher Supernova DX11 FPS at 121.1, which often translates to better raw frame rates in many games. So, if pure gaming FPS is your top priority in titles that love single-core speed, the Ryzen might still be your play.

What the numbers mean

The CPU score is the processor's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the processor in, and leans heavily on the graphics card. A strong processor in a weak PC gets a low GAMING score without being worse. We show both and never mix them.

All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
