3DMark
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.
We know from past experience that AMD's Radeon R9 270X is one of the best available options at around the Ā£150 mark. With a mild overclock in tow, MSI's ITX card is able to sneak to the front of the pack in our mid-range comparison.
