3DMark Fire Strike
 |
3DMark is the latest version of this hugely-popular synthetic benchmark. Making use of DX11 features such as tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading, it provides modern-day results and is available as a free download.
The MSI keeps in with some high-end company here. Logs show the card's core speed oscillated between 1,360MHz and 1,380MHz during intense load. The Sapphire card is clocked in higher, at 1,450MHz, but if you are able to go up a notch in the GPU stakes, a GTX 1080 produces lots more speed.
