Throwing the new card into 3DMark doesn’t really impress me. I was expecting a graphics score around 10,000, this would have been roughly half way between the R9 380 and R9 390; at this point, the R9 380X has a lot of work to do.
At 1440p, the card is pushed more towards the midway point; this is more like it!
The scores start to dwindle at 4K, but the R9 380X starts to pull more towards the centre score.
Unigine Valley gives a much clearer image to roughly how the cards would perform compared to on another, but the compute performance compared to Maxwell is proven here. At 1080p, the 40FPS is woeful considering the £70 additional cost compared to the R9 380. The same is said for 1440p and 4K tests with the R9 380X barely beating the R9 380. Of course, synthetic benchmarks aren’t always an indication of real world gaming performance.
Putting the card through Luxmark and the aging architecture is starting to show, not even able to crack 2000; pretty much what we expected.
