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 benchmarks reveal that a gaping hole exists in the latest-generation line-up from AMD and Nvidia. The chasm between Radeon RX 460 and Radeon RX470/GeForce GTX 1060 is clear to see, and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, as expected, is here to fill that void.
How well does the EVGA card boost during real-world use? Well, while the box quotes a speed of 1,468MHz, our logs reveal that the GTX 1050 Ti SC Gaming was often caught sailing past the 1,700MHz mark.
