Here we present the average clock speed for each graphics card while running the 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra stress test 20 times. We use GPU-Z to record the GPU core frequency during the Fire Strike Ultra runs. We calculate the average core frequency during the entire 20-run test to present here.

On paper, the MSI Gaming X Trio has a 30MHz clock speed advantage over the Founders Edition. In the real world, the gap is slightly wider, with the MSI running 53MHz faster across our 3DMark testing. It's enough to keep it ahead of the Founders Edition in every one of our game benchmarks, but not by much at all.
