3DMark Time Spy

Rendered at QHD or UHD resolutions and making use of DX12 technologies such as asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter and multi-threading, Time Spy is a modern 3DMark benchmark that hints at GPU potential in today's latest games.

It's reasonable to assume the card will benchmark at the same level as the Founders Edition, as both are clocked in at the same frequency. Logs reveal the sample card actually boosts to between 1,840-1,860MHz, which is about 100MHz lower than the MSI Gaming X Trio.

Worryingly for KFA2, it fails the stress test by the smallest possible margins - 97 percent is needed for a pass.
