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.

Able to eke out a 10 per cent lead over a standard-clocked Radeon HD 7870, PowerColor's mini-Devil card falls just shy of that GTX 760 in this synthetic test.

Going by our experiences of examining a whole host of mainstream cards, a score of over 5,000 usually means decent real-world gaming performance at a 1080p resolution.
