The test used a custom workstation with 64 GB of DDR4-ECC RAM and a 12 GB Radeon RX 6700 XT graphics card.

In the gaming tests, Windows 10 was run as OS using Lintel 4.2 binary translator, which mimicked the "Elbrus-16C" CPU as Intel Core 2 Duo E7400.

The experts found out that Cyberpunk 2077 shows around 17 FPS on "low" graphics settings on Elbrus-16C, GTA V gives out 20-23 FPS, and DOOM with Vulkan API runs at 40-50 FPS depending on the location. Due to problems with the proper operation of the translator during the test the games often slowed down and even hung for a few minutes.
