Accepted Answer

It clears the minimum processor requirement for 2,747 games, and the developer's recommended processor for 1,602 of them (marked with a star in the list above).

Question 3

How do you decide what a Core i7-7700K can run?

Accepted Answer

We compare the Core i7-7700K against each game's processor requirement exactly as the developer published it — never our own benchmarks or promises. Your graphics card and memory matter too, so the full check on the homepage includes those.
