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.

So we see the X99M taking a knock on performance here at 1080p, but then taking the lead at 1440p. Maybe those higher quality plated contact pins make the difference in more demanding scenarios.

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.

Bioshock

So we’ve decided to remove the 720p benchmark from both Tomb Raider and Bioshock, with the current generation of hardware currently playing happily at 1440p, it would seem stupid not to move on to that. This gives a slightly unfair comparison at 1440p, but we see at 1080p, the X99M is slightly poorer at utilising the power of the R9 290x. However, the difference is negligible again.
