GPU Performance
3DMark
3DMark Firestrike is Futuremark’s latest creation for testing the GPU performance of high-end gaming PCs using Direct X 11 graphics. You can download a free basic version of 3DMark here.
GPU performance is now limited by the GPU rather than the CPU and/or motherboard thanks to the high-speed PCIe 3.0 lanes. It is not surprising to see the scores similar to the other test motherboards.
Tomb Raider
Tomb Raider is a popular action-adventure video game published by Square Enix based on the Tomb Raider franchise. The game was released in 2013 and as of March 2014 had sold 6 million copies.
Bioshock Infinite
Bioshock Infinite is a first person shooter developed by Irrational Games that is the third instalment of the Bioshock series. The game is the last to be produced by Irrational Games before they announced their closure in February 2014. The game has sold over 4 million copies since its 2013 release.
Again, results are within tolerance for the GPU performance.
