3DMark Time Spy positions the Crosshair 15 R6E well below its Katana GF66 sibling. This is interesting and likely points towards power sharing biases when the CPU and GPU are both loaded simultaneously. Particularly as we see similar behaviour and scoring in the 3DMark CPU Profile test.

PCMark 10 – with its less strenuous workload – has the Crosshair 15 back to typical Intel 12^th Gen performance levels, though.
