MSI RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio Graphics Card Review

DirectX11 Gaming Benchmarks

Far Cry Primal

So now we turn our attention to DX11 based gaming with Far Cry Primal. There’s really not much in it, with the Palit RTX 2080 and the GTX 1080 Ti scoring identically. MSI managed to pull a whole 1FPS lead, but nothing else of note there. At 4K it did fair better though, scoring a tasty 76 FPS. That’s not much of a lead, but 2-3% faster is impressive for such similar cards.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands

The Palit took the lead here for average FPS. However, the MSI card looks more capable of holding a steady clock speed, as it set our highest minimum frame rate by quite a significant margin. This puts the new cards way ahead of the older GTX 1080 too and this isn’t an easy game to run this well. What’s most impressive though is that the MSI card took the top spot at 4K by 1 FPS, but slaughtered the Palit RTX 2080 when it came to the minimum frame rate.
