Performance - Part 2

Homepage: crysis.com/crysis-3 | Publisher: Electronic Arts | Developer: Crytek

Crysis 3 is a beautiful-looking game that continues to tax high-end systems. We've benchmarked a 60-second section near the start of the game, with lashing rain, numerous reflections and full DX11 pomp on show.

All GPUs managed to eek out an additional one to two frames per second in Crysis 3. Given how difficult this title is to run every frame counts.

Racing games can offer dazzling visuals when delivered at buttery-smooth framerates. Grid Autosport is a prime example and is benchmarked with maximum quality settings.

Nvidia's GTX 780 Ti gained a healthy 12 FPS with the newest driver in Grid Autosport, more than a 10 per cent increase. All the other GPUs saw performance rise by a much smaller amount.
