MSI Afterburner |
Our video cards were tested at resolutions of 1920x1080, 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 at maximum graphics quality settings.
Textures in ultra quality were not tested, as they are blocked on cards with video memory less than 16 gigabytes. And since, apart from the consumption of video memory on cards with a large amount of video memory, there are no deviations in performance, this setting was not tested.
| GPU TEST |
In the test of video cards, the default resolution is 1920x1080, other resolutions are added and removed manually. You can also remove and add any positions of video cards. You can also select any of our test processors from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given video card tests (by default, the most productive solution is selected). The test is carried out on the most productive CPU in this game and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.
